Beat by Kinesus Beats... dope ass f***... give em propz...
[Verse One: 2Pac]
Our lifestyles be close captioned
addicted to fatal attractions
Pictures of actions be played back
in the midst of mashin'
No fairy tales for this young black male
Some see me stranded in this land of hell, jail, and crack sales
Hustlin' and heart be a nigga culture
or the repercutions while bustin' on backstabbin' vultures
Sellin' my soul for material wishes, fast cars and bitches
Wishin' I live my life a legend, immortalized in pictures
Why shed tears? Save your sympathy
My childhood years were spent buryin' my peers in the cemetary
Here's a message to the newborns, waitin' to breathe
If you believe then you can achieve
Just look at me
Against all odds, though life is hard we carry on
Livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on
To all the seeds that follow me
protect your essence
Born with less, but you still precious
Just smile for me now
[Verse Two: Triste]
ITS JUST A CRAZY THOUGHT TO BELIEVE IN LEGENDS
UNDER ALL THE MIS-FORTUNE THAT WE GATHER IN SECONDS
KAY-OS AND MURDER, WAITIN TO SURENDER, LORD SAVE ME!!
I GATHER AROUND YOU, AFTER ALL I AM ANOTHER SLAVE KID
CARRY A NINE, WATCHIN MY BACK, IN THIS JUGGLE I LIVE IN
CUZ LORD KNOWS THAT MY PRIDE WILL NEVER LET ME GIVE IN!
LOOKIN AROUND, EVERY MORNIN I WAKE UP WITH LESS HOPE
SEEN HOW EVERY CHILD IS ENTITLED TO DIE WITH NO LOVE
SEE WHERES THE LOVE AT, WITH ALL EVERYONE COMMITIN SINS
LIFE WONT CHANGE, AT THIS RATE HEAVEN WILL NEVER WIN
ITS ALL OR NOTHIN, BUT AM A SOLDIER FROM THE HEART..
CUZ I WILL NEVER SURRENDER, FUCK THE WORLD APART
TRUTH WILL NEVER BE HEARD, ITS ALL AGAINST A WIZE MINDZ
SO WHY CRY, SMILE... AND FUCK BAD TIMEZ
