Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhhh Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhhh [Ja Rule] They'll never take me alive, I'm gettin high with my fo'-five co*ked on these n***az time to die Even as a lil' n***a, you could picture me hot gun in the rain I shed the tear, cause this n***a here inherits the pain And now I'm labeled as a thug n***a - you know the game Smokin weed, f**in hoes, slangin thangs, that's the life I live Even if I tried to go back I'd get lost (come back) And everything I seem to love I done lost f** the world if they can't understand me What else could I do? I had to feed my f**in family Yo' lies is my truth, so I'm a drug to your youth And you don't want 'em nowhere near me, now that they can hear me I spits razors, never been a stranger to homicide My city's full of tote-slangers and chalk lines Why do we die at an early age? n***a so young, but still a victim of a twelve-gauge Feel the rage this world has bestowed upon me And I don't give a f** 'cause they don't give a f** 'bout me So I keep - drinkin Hennessy, bustin at my enemies Will I live to see twenty-three? There's so much pain [Chorus] Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhhh I'm tired of the strain and the pain (so much pain) Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhhh I'm tired of the strain and the pain [Ja Rule] Years and years of strugglin all my life Runnin wild as a kid, grew up blazin 'em right I'm in a - little cell I call my soul lately It's been a - givin me hell and my heart is screamin, "Don't enter" I've been cursed, for what it's worth I feel dead Spittin to you, I know I'm in way over my head But Lord hear me, I believe in your "7 Day Theory" Three souls done sent this whole world teary (can you hear me?) Too hot for you to stand near me It's so much pain, and n***az wanna k** me I'm tired of the stress and the strain But my, grimiest grimeys got love for me They're blazin, sendin shotguns up above for me My face in, Hennessy with no chaser Coke rises on every way in - keep us hustlin n***a Me and my man got a plan to get this paper n***a So if you owe n***a, look for the gauge to blow n***a I figured I'd be considered a k**er Doin crime excited my mind and leadin the blind I, can't express my compa**ion, my satisfaction for gettin f**ed up and blastin - we all been there Taught from young to shoot, show no fear and lie And wipe the tears from yo' mother's eyes - so much pain [Chorus - repeat 2X] ("They'll never take me alive..." -> [2Pac]) Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhhh I'm tired of the strain and the pain ("They'll never take me alive..." -> [2Pac]) Ooohhh, tired of the strain and the pain ("They'll never take me alive..." -> [2Pac]) I'm tired of the strain and the pain ("They'll never take me alive..." -> [2Pac]) Ooooooohhhhhh, nooooooooooooo ("co*ked on these s**ers, time to die" -> [2Pac]) [2Pac] They got me mobbin like I'm - loc'd and ready to get my slug on I load my clip and slip my motherf**in gloves on I ain't scared to blast on these s**ers if they test me Trust, I got my glock co*ked, playa if they press me Bust on motherf**ers with a - PASSION Better duck 'cause I ain't lookin when I'm - BA-BLASTIN I'm a nut and drinkin Hennessy And gettin high on the lookout for my enemies Don't wanna die, tell me why?
