Things just ain't the same for gangstas
Times is changin', young ♥♥♥♥♥♥ is agin'
Becoming OG's in the game and changin'
To make way for these new names and faces
But the strangest things can happen from rappin'
When ♥♥♥♥♥♥ get wrapped up in image and actin'
♥♥♥♥♥♥ get capped up and wrapped in plastic
Zipped up in bags, when it happens – that's it
I've seen 'em come, I've watched them go
Watched them rise, witnessed it, and watched them blow
Watched them all blossom, and watched them grow
Watched the lawsuits when they lost the dough
Best friends and money? I lost them both
Went and visited ♥♥♥♥♥♥ in the hospital
It's all the same ♥♥♥♥ all across the globe
I just sit back and watch the show.

I moved out of the hood for good – you blame me?
♥♥♥♥♥♥ aim, mainly, at ♥♥♥♥♥♥ they can't be
But ♥♥♥♥♥♥ can't hit ♥♥♥♥♥♥ they can't see
I'm out of sight now, I'm out of their dang reach
How would you feel if ♥♥♥♥♥♥ wanted you killed?
You'd probably move to a new house on a new hill
And choose a new spot, if ♥♥♥♥♥♥ wanted you shot
I ain't a thug – how much 2Pac in you you got?
I ain't no ♥♥♥♥♥, neither
It's either my life or your, life and I ain't leavin' – I like breathin'
'Cause, ♥♥♥♥♥, we can go round for round
Clip for clip – ♥♥♥♥, four pound for pound
♥♥♥♥♥, if you really want to take it there, we can
Just remember that you ♥♥♥♥♥♥' with a family man
I got a lot more to lose than you
Remember that when you wanna come and fill these shoes.
