Yaki Kadafi
Thug Life (Original Version 2)
[Intro: 2Pac]
The question: "Is it real?"
The answer (Hehehah) to the young muthafuckin' Thugs (N***a)
K-Doggs (That's right) Young Hollywood (Come on),Big motherfuckin' Malcolm do that (Thug)
Representing on a mothafuckin' higher level
Get yours holler at ya these moterfuckers just don't understand me
They all family (Heeheeheeeheey)
Why don't you n***as hit these bustas up?
[Verse 1: Young Hollywood "Kadafi"]
What's up for '95? Yeah, '95 sound live!
I'm through with crimes, no more runnin' from one-time
Although I know what I'll get for my title
When I was young, that nickel-plated Four-Fifth was my idol
Chrome and stones, bones, and portable phones
Gettin' bungalow while I'm sittin' at home is what I scheme of
So now what I dream of is a life full of trouble
In fact countin' double digit stacks
Lay back for a minute, 500 SEL, yeah, I could see myself in it!
Murder over money, you ever heard of a dummy
With Glocks between his tummy, low down dirty and crummy?
Talkin' bout that Thug Life be the only life I know
Talkin 'bout that drug life without this rap shit
Probably be the only route I go
And matter of fact I know I'll strive through this fo' sho'
Live that Thug Life
[Chorus: Female singing & 2Pac]
Thug Life, it's the only life for me (A n***a live the)
Thug Life, forever hustling in the streets (I forever live the)
Thug Life, when no one else was there for me (I gotta live the)
Thug Life, the G's became my family(Down n***a pray now)
[Verse 2: EDI "Big Malcolm"]
Thug Life, ever since we was from day one
Licking shots, gettin' back at the frustration
Livin' right was never my thought, I guess it's my fault
I told to support that n***a with his fuckin' court
I'm boldy drinkin' slowly smash his finger to the police
Don't nothin' (Hehahah) matter when makin' snaps with the homies
Now y'all know it ain't right but when young n***as sure don't like
Tryin' to survive through the stripe
With a buck and a butter knife you fuckin' right
I go loony for loot G without a bootsy (Yeah n***a)
I was raised in this crazed so forever
Thuggin' is how I stay clutchin' pay and duckin' strays
I'm just a young Thug (Hehehah) glad to see twenty
And plenty more (Yeah)
But the homies say that's a trip that I ain't ready for (That's right)
So it's only right for me to earn my fuckin' stripes everyday I fight
Livin' that
[Chorus: Female singing & 2Pac]
Thug Life
It's the only life for me (A n***a gotta live the)
Thug Life
Forever hustling in the streets (I forever live the)
Thug Life
When no one else was there for me (Now I gots to live the)
Thug Life
The G's became my family
(K)
[Verse 3: K-Dog "Kastro"]
Now aahahahaah well some wonder
(Yeah) where the real n***as win a few cents
Make me represent harder no doe I can't bother 'cause
Don't nuttin' move but the papers when n***as catch vapors
More and more n***as doin' capers (Uuhhuhuuh)
For them stacks of ends me and my mens it all means
The black Benz on rims and diamond rings (Hehahahahah)
Make me think thoughts of all sorts and no lesser (Yeah n***a yeah)
Puffin' on 'ports for the pressure while the
Sounds force Thugs born to the full
Get on and trick pull punks are livin' wonderful
I array and Bubonic make a play day
Blast away and I pray that a n***a lay (Hehahah)
In peace please tell my leaves in the breeze
With the real (Whohuhuhuuh) sticks
And snaps no haps I guess I gotta peel
For realla my n***as never show me nothin' right
Now I'm hype on this muthafuckin' Thug Life
[Chorus: Female singing & 2Pac]
Thug Life, it's the only life for me (I gotta live the)
Thug Life, forever hustling in the streets (A mothafucka live the)
Thug Life, when no one else was there for me (Only thing was the)
Thug Life, the G's became my family
Thug Life, it's the only life for me (That's why a n***a live the)
Thug Life, forever hustling in the streets (Only thing for me)
Thug Life, when no one else was there for me (I live the)
Thug Life, the G's became my family
