[Chorus]<br />You know, I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead<br />Why am I fighting to live, if I'm just living to fight<br />Why am I trying to see, when there aint nothing in sight<br />Why am I trying to give, when no one gives me a try<br />Why am I dying to live, if I'm just living to die<br /><br /><em>[Notorious B.I.G.]<br />Check it, I grew up a fuckin screw up<br />Got introduced to the game, got a ounce and fuckin blew up<br />Choppin rocks overnight<br />The nigga Biggie Smalls tryin ta turn into the black Frank White<br />We had to grow dreads to change our description<br />Two cops is on the milk box missin<br />Show they toes you know they got stepped on<br />A fist full of bullets a chest full of Teflon<br />Run from the police picture that, nigga I'm too fat<br />I fuck around and catch a asthma attack<br />That's why I bust back, it don't phase me<br />When he drop, take his glock, and I'm Swayze<br />celebrate my escape, sold the glock, bought some weight<br />Laid back, I got some money to make, motherfucker<br /><br /><em>[Chorus]<br /><br /><em>[2Pac]<br />And still I'm havin memories of high speeds, when the cops crashed<br />As I laugh pushin the gas when my glocks blast<br />We was young, and we was dumb but we had heart<br />In the dark when we survived through the bad parts<br />Many dreams is what I had, and many wishes<br />No hesitation in extermination of these snitches<br />And these bitches they still continue to per sue me<br />A couple of movies now the whole world tryin to screw me<br />even the cops tried to sue me<br />So what can I do but stay true, sippin 22's a brewin<br />now the medias tryin to test me got the press askin questions, tryin to stress me<br />misery is all I see, thats my mind's state<br />My history with the police is shakin' the crime rate<br />Ma main man had 2 stikes, slipped, got arrested and flipped<br />He screamed 'Thug Life!' and emptied the clip<br />gots tired of runnin from the police<br /><br /><em>[chorus]<br /><br /><em>[Biggie] <br />I was shocked at everything!
