[2Pac]
(hahhh, hahaha) Hehehe, word
Its like all we got left - teardrops and closed caskets
(throw it up fool, hey ni**a, haha)
Tell me how you feel homey
(Yeah, it took a week to go down)
You recollects and see how crazy it sounds
The whole towns on a mission, adolescents (penitentary bound)
(Now introducin Young Trigga)
Since birth, eyes set on gettin bigger
Just anotha wild-a*s ni**a
(But he was fiendin for Precious) WHAT?
(But Precious was a ghetto girl)
Couldnt be no sex without that gold Lexus
(But Lil Trigga was heartbroken, he had to get his papers)
Seein visions of people smokin and ni**az catchin vapors
Got his man from around the corner (well call him Lil Mo)
(Been in so many reform schools they had to let him go)
(Heres where the plot thickens)
They got a plot to make a profit with they glocks spittin
(They call the squad, hittin blocks with they guns blowin)
(Somebodys gonna die tonight)
Still no ones knowin, so they kept goin
Catchin dealers comin out they cars (will they survive?)
(Two semi-automatic nines, them ni**az died)
(Plus nobody in the hood cries, its like they celebrate
to death and wish they could die) So peep the lesson
But wait a minute back to Precious
Shes snortin dope in the back seat of Triggs Lexus
TEARDROPS AND CLOSED CASKETS
[Nate] Will I.. forever be alone
[Pac] Teardrops and closed caskets
[Lawz] TEARDROPS AND CLOSED CASKETS
[Nate] Will I.. forever be alone
[Pac] Teardrops and closed caskets
(Dont let these ghetto streets get you, Precious)
(was the victim, from a dime to a nickel)
Hopin Gods blessings stick with ya
Picture the neighborhood kingpin, whos gettin bigger
Familiar face, but a man now, its Lil Trigga
Now Lil Mo was a soldier to the fullest
Down for his homies, always the first to spit bullets
(All he wanted was to be a thug)
Never pictured his truest homeboy would fall in love
(Heres where it gets ya)
Now Precious is pregnant, Lil Trigga is happy
He wants to marry her now (not knowin he aint the daddy)
But Precious was lonely while Lil Trigga was makin dough
Shes slippin in secret places and gettin with Lil Mo
The neighborhoods buzzin, now people are talkin
Lil Triggas gettin pictures of the both of em walkin
(Hand in hand, couldnt understand)
How his babys mama could disapear with another man
(and his best friend)
Now jealousys dangerous, and if you dont believe me
Then watch the way that this story ends and maybe youll see
There aint no heroes or villains, aint no pleasure in killin
Just the smoke from the cap peelin a man with no feelings
TEARDROPS AND CLOSED CASKETS
[Nate] Will I.. forever be alone
[Pac] Teardrops and closed caskets
Bury you dead and look ahead
A man with no feelings
[Lawz] TEARDROPS AND CLOSED CASKETS
[Nate] Will I.. forever be alone
[Pac] Teardrops and closed caskets
Thats all we got left, thats all
[Outlawz]
Now with the problems of poverty
and the tricks to these tales
How many peoplell die
how manyll live to tell
Although best friends before
Lil Trigga and Mo
(They in an all out war, over a fiend they aint know)
Behind the curtains their privacy lust is already laid down
The results is the same with different names and it turns out
[2Pac]
Yall know how it is, same old thing in the same old town
Lil Trigg got his nose wide open on this one trick, now hes played out
Think its Lil Mo (was plottin plans on gettin bigger)
(Precious was his way to put his hands on Lil Trigga)
All the while lets look at Precious
Too dumb to see whats goin down (too doped up to ask questions)
Used to be comrades (but now we blast on sight)
What could be so bad (God, will we last tonight?)
From misdemeanors to felonies, small-time to sellin kis
I cant believe the s**t they tellin me
They open fire, three bodies drop, so call the cops
(Precious, Lil Mo and Trigg)
TEARDROPS AND CLOSED CASKETS
[Nate] Will I.. forever be alone
[Pac] Aiy QBIII in this motherf**ker
Teardrops and closed caskets
We dedicate this to all the fallen comrades
(thats right)
All the homies that didnt make it to see this day
(rest in peace)
[Nate] Will I.. forever be alone
[Pac] Yaknahmean? I know its hard out there, heheh
with teardrops and closed caskets
Its like thats all we got to look forward to these days
Murders, brothers dyin, funerals
[Nate] Will I.. forever be alone
[Pac] s**t, its like I done ran out of suits homey
I done ran out of tears
Know we gon have to do somethin yall
We gon have to do somethin
[Nate] Will I.. forever be alone
[Pac] Cause I know all these mothers is tired of seein the same thing
(rest in peace)
Teardrops and closed caskets
I send this out to Mthulu Geronimo
and to, all the fallen comrades, all the soldiers
[Nate] Will I.. forever be alone
(to the homey Boonie, rest in peace ni**a)
[Pac] All the homies that fell, all the homies
May God bless your families
May you always live in the motherf**kin heart
[Nate] Will I.. forever be alone
[Pac] In a thug ni**az heart forever
(thats right)
Rest in peace ni**a
May your enemies be deceased, dead on the streets
We cant have peace til the ni**az get a piece
[Nate] Will I..
