[2Pac]
A military mind n____

[Chorus: 2Pac]

We tradin war stories, we Outlawz on the rise
Jealous n____z I despise, look in my eyes

[2Pac]
Now can your mind picture, a thug n____ drinkin hard liquor
This ghetto life has got me catchin up to God quicker
Who would figure that all I need was a hair trigger
semi-automatic Mack 11 just to scare n____z
Pardon my thug poetry, but suckers is born everyday
and fear of man - grow on trees
Criminal ties for centuries, a legend in my own rhymes
So n____z whisper when they mention
Makaveli was my tutor Donald Goines, my father figure
Moms sent me to go play with the drug dealers
Hits fall, we thug n____z and we came in packs.
Every one of n____z strapped sippin on 'nac (Cognac)
In the back, my AR-15
Thuggin till I die, these streets got me cravin thorazine
Fat as that a__ that honey shakin

[Chorus (w/ Outlawz)]
We tradin war stories, we Outlawz on the rise
Jealous n____z I despise, look in my eyes
We tradin war stories, we Outlawz on the rise
Jealous n____z I despise, look in my eyes

[Fatal]

But what was I doin in this place?
To the fakes without a pistol in the first,

Made it up out of there, lucky to be here to tell you
But it'll never be a repeat people I'm tryin to tell you.

[Dramacydal]
Now picture the scenery, I'm thugged out smokin greenery
Considered a B.G., but I'm off in this game somethin D-P
My eyes only see deez, that's why I'm young and burnt out
Learned the know how, well how to do now, by 18 turned out
And why I do it - the ridin and smokin
Collidin with foes - in the worst place;

Y'all real O.G.'s, droppin game to the youngsters
Y'all don't want no funk cause

[Chorus: 2pac]
We tradin war stories, we Outlawz on the rise
Jealous n____z I despise, look in my eyes
We tradin war stories, we Outlawz on the rise
Jealous n____z I despise, look in my eyes

I breaks 'em off with this gangsta war story tale
Stackin loot up in the coupe that I protect with a Mack 12
Slap my clip in the chamber; fool, your life's in danger
No one will remain when I come through dumpin insane
Call me Bo-wl of Major Pain, gun-slang and movin 'caine
I be the n____ that's pullin the trigga

Mo' bigger b____ that RuPaul, Thug Life ain't a ball
We bust that a__ up against the wall (up against the wall)
