[Intro; 2Pac]

[Verse]
Yeah, yeah
For those I love I'll sacrifice, I got it tatted on my skin
If I starve with you, I eat with you, my n***as is my kin
Musically I'd say I'm in another fuckin' bracket
Always on some shit, this money don't do no relaxin'
Dropped straight outta college, and I had to make it happen
Plus the game been too complacent, it's 'bout time they got a challenge
Find me where the bag is, I chase it with so much passion
Catch these n***as slippin', I round 'em up and I grab it
Ain't no leopard change it's spots, I just might die from all my habits, ayy
Mind over matter, I'm focused on things that matter
I gave a girl my heart one time and watched it shatter
Life served me hard times and hardships, no sliver platter
It don't matter, I still do it for the fam
Ain't seen 'em in a year, I had to get up off my ass
A-class n***a but the bullshit never pass
I'm my mama only incase they askin' "Who the man?"
Always had a plan, I follow through I stuck it out
Couple nights [?] with no food, we thugged it out
Ain't even had a roof, was crashing at my n***a house
Family never really understood what I was 'bout
They barely knew my whereabouts but look at how it's turning out
I'm the brightest star that's shining now
I might need a Rollie to compliment this perfect timing now
On the road to riches, what a journey, blunt burnin'
Every loss that I encountered never left without me learning
Still I yearn
You only get what you deserve
And I'm a goat, I know you heard
This shit a blessing and a curse
