Between you and Biggie it was like, Who's gon', who's gonna... Who rules the... the... the "nigga kingdom" and shit, basically You know what I'm sayin'... I was like, this is like a fuckin' election, it's an election and shit, You know what I'm saying? [2Pac speaking] It is that... it is that! Me and Biggie situation is smaller than that Me and Biggie situation is like... [Ambulance radio] Central, we got a black male shot - in critical condition... [Reporter] Tupac Shakur was shot seven times in the chest, [2Pac speaking] While I'm in jail, strangers is tellin' me: "You don't know? Biggie home boy shot you! And they bragging!" And that's why what I'm doing... I know what I'm doin', I'm destroying them. I'm DESTROYING them... You know, I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead... Why am I fighting to live If I'm just living to fight? Why am I trying to see When there ain't nothing in sight? Why am I trying to give When no one gives me a try? Why am I diying to live If I'm just living to die? [Notorious B.I.G.] Check it; I grew up a fucking screw-up Got introduced to the game Got an ounce and fuckin' blew up Toppin' rocks overnight The nigga Biggie Smalls Tryin to turn into the black Frank White We had to grow dreads to change our description Two cops is on the milk box missin' Show they toes and know they got stepped on A fist full of bullets, a chest full of teflon Run from the police - picture that Nigga I'm too fat, I fuck around and catch an asthma attack That's why I bust back, it don't phase me When he drop take his Glock and I'm Swayze Celebrate my escape, sold the Glock, bought some weight Laid back - I got some money to make Motherfucker! You know, I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead... Why am I fighting to live If I'm just living to fight? Why am I trying to see When there ain't nothing in sight? Why am I trying to give When no one gives me a try? Why am I diying to live If I'm just living to die? [Notorious B.I.G. speaking] Tupac's still dead, you know what I'm saying? Just... don't feed into it! If you feed into it, it's only going to escalate You know what I'm sayin'? I know about the truth I know what people would believe for was the truth... [2Pac] It's on me! But still I'm havin' memories of high speed When the cops crashed as I laughed Pushin' the gas when ma Glocks blast We was young and we was dumb, but we had heart In the dark, where we survived through the bad parts Many dreams is what I had and plenty wishes, No hesitation in extermination of these snitches Envious Bitches, they still continue to pursue me A couple o' movies, now the whole world's tryin' to screw me Even the cops try to sue me So what can I do but stay true? Sippin' 22s of brew? And now the media's tryin' to test me Got the press asking questions, trying to stress me Misery is all I see, that's my mind state My history with the police is... check the crime rate! My main man had two strikes slipped Got arrested and flipped He screamed "Thug Life!" and emptied a clip Got tired of runnin' from the police You know, I wonder if they'll laugh when I'm dead... Why am I fighting to live If I'm just living to fight? Why am I trying to see When there ain't nothing in sight? Why am I trying to give When no one gives me a try? Why am I diying to live If I'm just living to die? [Notorious B.I.G.] I was more shocked than anything, you know what I'm sayin'? But I wasn't more shocked of him dyin'... I was more shocked of him... 'Pac is a strong dude, yo... I know dudes You know what I'm sayin'? He is real strong So when they was like, "He got shot!" I was more like, "Again?" You know what I'm sayin'; He always gettin' shot or shot at, He gon' pull through this one again, Make a few records about it And it's gonna be over, you know what I'm sayin'? But when he... when he died I was like, "Whoa!" You know what I'm sayin', it kinda took me by... You know, even though we was goin' through our drama I would never wish death upon nobody You know what I'm sayin'? There simply ain't no comin' back from that... |
