2Pac

Growing up as an inner city brotha
where every other had a pops and a motha
I was tha product of a heated lover
Nobody knew how deep it screwed me
and since my pops never knew me
my family didnt know what ta do with me
was I somebody they despise
curious look in they eyes
as if they wonder if im dead or alive
poor momma cant control me
quit tryin ta save my soul, I wanna roll with my homies
a ticken timebomb
cant nobody fade me
packin a 380
and fiendin for my mercedes
suckers scatter
but it dont matter im a cool shot
punks drop from all tha buckshots tha fools got
im tired of being a nice guy
ive been poor all my life, but dont know quite why
so they label me a lunatic
could care less
death or success
is what I quest
cause im fearless
now tha streetz R Deathrow
Chorus
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
tha streetz R Deathrow
I just murdered a man, im even more stressed
wearin a vest
hopein that their aimin at my chest
much too young to bite tha bullet
hand on tha trigga
I see my life before my eyes each time I pull it
I hope I live to be a man
must be part of some big plan to keep a brotha in tha state
penn
counting pennys over tha years
Id done stacked many
proven wrong those
who swore id wouldnt live till twenty
now they gotta cope
since its tha only thing I know
its difficult to let it go
im startin to loose my hair cause I worry
hustlin to keep from gettin buried
but now I gotta move away now
cause these suckers wanna spray where I lay down
my homie lost his family and snapped
shot up half tha block to bring them back
tha streetz R Deathrow
Chorus
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
(like it aint nothin)
im dangerous
when drunk I only drink beer
gin makes me sin
unable to think clear
heneesee, makes me think my enemy is getting close
BOOM BOOM BOOM
got me shooting at a ghost
some call me crazy
but this is what you gave me
amongst tha babies, who raised up from tha slavery
I sport a vest and hit tha sess to kill tha stress
moved out west and I invest in all tha best
those who test will find a bullet in they chest
put ta rest
by a brotha who was hopeless
grow up broke on tha rope of insanity
how many pistols smoking coming from a broken family
im sick of being tired
sick of tha sirens, body bags, and tha gun firing
tell bush to push tha button cause im fed
tired of hearin these voices in my head
tha streetz R Deathrow
Chorus
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
this goes out to my partners in tha Live Squad (like it
aint nothin)
and all my partners involved in that 187
watch your back...
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
There got to be a better way...
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
Theres too many of us in tha cemetary
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
come on, what we gonna do now
(cause ill beat you down, like it aint nothin)
tha streetz R Deathrow
