[Intro: 2Pac] How long will they mourn me? Yeah! This for my n***a Kato, it's still on n***a - believe that We live a Thug Life, Thugs for Life, ha ha (How long will they mourn me?) We handle this sh** for you bwoy Yeah n***a.. 2Pac in this motherf**er [Verse 1: 2Pac] All my homies drinkin' liquor, tears in everybody's eyes n***as cried, to mourn a homie's homicide But I can't cry, instead I'm just a shoulder Damn, why they take another soldier? I load my clip before my eyes blurry, don't worry I'll get them s**ers back before you're buried (sh**) Retaliate and pull a one-eight-seven Do real n***as get to go to heaven? How long will they mourn me? Bury me a motherf**in' G b**h don't wanna die; then, don't f** with me It's kinda hard to be optimistic When your homie's lyin' dead on the pavement twisted Y'all don't hear me doe, I'm tryin hard to make amends But I'm losin' all my motherf**in' friends.. damn! They should've shot me when I was born Now I'm trapped in the motherf**in' storm How long will they mourn me? [Chorus] I wish it would have been another (How long will they mourn me?) How long.. will they mourn.. my brother (Half them n***as all dead and sh**) (How long will they mourn me?) [Nate] I wish it would have been another (Dedicated this to Kato n***a, and e'ry thug) (How long will they mourn me?) How long.. will they mourn.. my brother (Yo n***a, we gotta keep this sh** goin' on, yo Syke) [Verse 2: Big Syke] How long will they mourn me Every muthaf**in' day homie You stayed down when tha other n***as didn't know me From my heart to the trigga you my f**in' n***a And things won't be the same without ya n***a I remember kickin' back, you wanted to lack And goin' half on a muthaf**in' hundred sack Smokin' blunt after blunt and steady drinkin' Hung around so much, you knew what I was thinkin' Tell me Lord, why you take big Kato ? So confused not knowing which way to go I'm goin crazy and runnin' out of f**in' time I can't take it, I'm losin' my f**in' mind So day after day Ride after ride We'll hook up on the other side Watch over your family and your newborn Till we meet again homie How long will they mourn me ? [Verse 3: 2Pac]*(Extra Verse) So many, buried peers Throughout the years While pouring out liquor and beers For my homies that wasn't here Can't help but shed tears at the cemetery Makin' me wonder if this loaded pistols necessary Even the preacher could see the pain in my mother's eyes While walkin' by, can't help but sympathize when brothas die Maybe the pain will make the situation change No murder for murder, our homicide will never end, this crooked game Bullet's blastin', time pa**, brothas in masks Retaliation is the aftermath All that remains is a corpse rapped in plastic Call the mother tell her her babies in a casket No love for em Just put his body in the grave Even the pistols and all the prayers couldn't save 'em Look how they played'em They should have murdered me when I was born Now I'm trapped in the violence of the storm How long will they mourn me [Chorus] I wish it would have been another (Yo Kato) How long will they mourn me (It's still on n***a) How long will they mourn my brother (How long will they mourn me) I wish it would have been another (Yeah) (How long will they mourn me) How long will they mourn my brother (Rated R, Double Jeopardy, Mack 10) [Verse 4: Rated R] Damn a n***a tired of feeling sad I'm tired of putting in work I'm tired of cryin' while watching my homies leave the earth I know soon one day I'll be in the dirt And my peoples'll be mournin' When they get a call from the coroner All n***as can say is that's f**ed up And get tossed up Reminiscing how we grew up (my n***a) Rest and love to my n***a Kato See you in the crossroads real soon For now let me pour out some brew I'll be always thinkin' of ya homie Rest in peace How long will they mourn me ? [Verse 5: Macadoshis] Ya know life's a f**in' trip And everybody gotta go But why the f** it have to be my n***a Kato Another n***a fell victim to the chrome It's enough to make you crazy It's f**in' with my dome Ya only live once on this earth A n***a had it bad, since the day of my mutahf**in' birth But n***as say they down and they always be my homie But when a n***a gone How long will ya mourn me ?(How Long will they mourn me?) [Chorus + Outro] I wish it would have been another (yeah, Mack 10 in this motherf**er) (yeah, how long will they mourn me) How long will they mourn my brother (thug life boy) (Nate, blowin' that sh**) I wish it would have been another (Nate Dogg rip that sh** [?]) (yeah, how long will they mourn me) How long will they mourn my brother (this is for my n***a Kato and all his kids) (How long will they mourn me) I wish it would have been another
