[Verse 1: 2Pac]
Can you picture my prophecy?
Stress in the city, the cops is hot for me
The projects is full of bullets, the bodies is droppin
There ain't no stoppin me
Constantly movin while makin millions
Witnessin killings, leavin dead bodies in abandoned buildings
Carries to children cause they're illin
Addicted to killin and the appeal from the cap peelin
Without feelin, but will they last or be blasted?
Hard headed bastard
Maybe he'll listen in his casket -- the aftermath
More bodies being buried -- I'm losing my homies in a hurry
They're relocating to the cemetary
Got me worried, stressin, my vision's blurried
The question is will I live? No one in the world loves me
I'm headed for danger, don't trust strangers
Put one in the chamber whenever I'm feelin this anger
Don't wanna make excuses, cause this is how it is
What's the use unless we're shootin no one notices the youth
It's just me against the world baby
[Chorus]
Have you ever thought of livin life in a blur,
When your emotionally scarred and you can't be heard,
Every word sounds absurd and deep down your hurt,
Waiting for a hero of life to emerge,
To take away all the pain, struggle, misery and trouble
But first, if you could go back in time in reverse,
And change everything bad and erase the worse,
All is solved in 1 word,
And it's us agains't the world!
[Verse 2: FlipBoy]
I've seen so many thing in my life that caught my eye
The soldier who fights back, but in the end he dies,
And when he dies, no one even cries,
No one asked why he died,
They just patrionise him for being real,
He was the real deal, but he wasn't the man of steel,
He had the appeal to make people kneel,
His identity revealed, he was so concealed,
He didn't what to feel, so he chose to steal,
He didn't know how to change, he didn't know how to heal,
He found another way of life and accepted his guilt,
Now he stands tall as the soldier he built,
Never gonna fall, never could be tilt,
He has an army that he uses as a shield,
Not sending his men to war, he sits and wields,
Not cheating his way through life, he would never cheat,
'cause i'm that guy who's just looking 4 peace!
It's just me agains't the world!
[Chorus]
Have you ever thought of livin life in a blur,
When your emotionally scarred and you can't be heard,
Every word sounds absurd and deep down your hurt,
Waiting for a hero of life to emerge,
To take away all the pain, struggle, misery and trouble
But first, if you could go back in time in reverse,
And change everything bad and erase the worse,
All is solved in 1 word,
And it's us agains't the world!
[Verse 3: 2Pac]
With all this extra stressin
The question I wonder is after death, after my last breath
When will I finaly get to rest? Through this supression
They punish the people that's askin questions
And those that possess, steal from the ones without possesions
The message I stress: to make it stop study your lessons
Don't settle for less - even the genius asks-es questions
Be grateful for blessings
Don't ever change, keep your essence
The power is in the people and politics we address
Always do your best, don't let the pressure make you panic
And when you get stranded
And things don't go the way you planned it
Dreamin of riches, in a position of makin a difference
Politicians and hypocrites, they don't wanna listen
If I'm insane, it's the fame made a brother change
It wasn't nuttin like the game
It's just me against the world
[Chorus]
Have you ever thought of livin life in a blur,
When your emotionally scarred and you can't be heard,
Every word sounds absurd and deep down your hurt,
Waiting for a hero of life to emerge,
To take away all the pain, struggle, misery and trouble
But first, if you could go back in time in reverse,
And change everything bad and erase the worse,
All is solved in 1 word,
And it's us agains't the world!
