Between you and Biggie it was like, who's going to rule the |
| [00:06.80] |
Nigga kingdom and shit, basically, know what I'm saying? |
| [00:09.18] |
I was like, this is like a ****ing election |
| [00:12.25] |
It is that |
| [00:13.17] |
(You know what I am saying) |
| [00:14.56] |
Me and Biggie's situation is smaller than that, it's like… |
| [00:18.43] |
|
| [00:18.78] |
You know, I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead? |
| [00:24.59] |
Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight? |
| [00:30.21] |
(You don't know) |
| [00:31.00] |
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight? |
| [00:36.72] |
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try? |
| [00:42.00] |
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die? |
| [00:47.00] |

The Notorious B.I.G. |
| [00:48.06] |
Check it, I grew up a ****in' screw-up |
| [00:51.00] |
Got introduced to the game, got a ounce and ****in' blew up |
| [00:54.32] |
Choppin' rocks overnight. The nigga Biggie Smalls trying to turn into the black Frank White |
| [01:00.22] |
We had to grow dreads to change our description |
| [01:03.37] |
Two cops is on the milk box missin' |
| [01:06.29] |
Show they toes, you know they got stepped on |
| [01:09.04] |
A fistful of bullets, a chest full of Teflon |
| [01:12.09] |
Runnin' from the police, picture that |
| [01:14.00] |
Nigga, I'm too fat, I **** around and catch a asthma attack |
| [01:17.67] |
That's why I bust back, it don't phase me |
| [01:20.98] |
When he drop, take his Glock, and I'm Swayze |
| [01:23.70] |
celebrate my escape, sold the Glock, bought some weight |
| [01:26.80] |
Lay back, I got some money to make, mother****er |
| [01:29.42] |
|
| [01:29.70] |
And I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead? |
| [01:33.66] |
Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight? |
| [01:40.14] |
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight? |
| [01:45.99] |
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try? |
| [01:50.30] |
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?(It's on me.) |
| [01:57.08] |

2Pac |
| [01:57.67] |
But still I'm having memories of high speed when the cops crashed |
| [02:01.34] |
As I laugh, pushing the gas while my Glocks blast |
| [02:04.02] |
We was young and we was dumb, but we had heart |
| [02:07.00] |
In the dark, will we survive through the bad parts? |
| [02:09.70] |
Many dreams is what I had, and plenty wishes |
| [02:12.78] |
No hesitation in extermination of these snitches |
| [02:15.80] |
Envious bitches, they still continue to pursue me |
| [02:18.56] |
A couple of movies, now the whole world's tryna to screw me |
| [02:21.00] |
Even the cops tried to sue me, so what can I do? |
| [02:24.20] |
But stay true, sippin' 22's of brew |
| [02:26.58] |
And now media is trying to test me |
| [02:28.64] |
Got the press asking questions, trying to stress me |
| [02:31.36] |
Misery is all I see, that's my mind state |
| [02:34.12] |
My history with the police will shake the crime rate |
| [02:37.30] |
My main man had two strikes, slipped, got arrested and flipped |
| [02:40.81] |
He screamed "Thug Life!" and emptied the clip |
| [02:43.32] |
Got tired of runnin' from the police |
| [02:44.88] |
|
| [02:45.00] |
And I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead? |
| [02:49.21] |
Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight? |
| [02:55.49] |
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight? |
| [03:01.01] |
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?(They wanted a new regime.) |
| [03:06.53] |
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?(And my regime includes East coast, includes West coast.) |
| [03:12.28] |

The Notorious B.I.G. |
| [03:13.00] |
I was more shocked than anything, you know what I'm saying? |
| [03:16.13] |
But I wasn't more shocked of him dying |
| [03:19.75] |
I was more shocked of him... Pac is a strong dude, yo |
| [03:24.00] |
I know dude, you know what I'm saying? Real strong |
| [03:27.00] |
So when they was like he got shot, I was just more like, "Again?" you know what I'm sayin'? |
| [03:31.20] |
He always getting shot, or shot at |
| [03:33.16] |
He going to pull through this one again |
| [03:34.88] |
Make a few records about it, and it's going to be over |
| [03:37.20] |
You know what I'm saying? But when he, when he died |
| [03:39.10] |
I was just like, "whoa", you know what I'm saying? |
| [03:42.00] |
Kinda took me by |
| [03:43.76] |
I mean even though we was going through our drama |
| [03:45.54] |
I would never wish death on nobody, you know what I'm sayin' |
| [03:47.42] |
Because there ain't no coming back from that |
