(featuring Yaki Kadafi)
2
[Intro: 2Pac]
3
Let us pray
4
Heavenly Father, hear a nigga down here
5
Before I go to sleep
6
Tell me, who do you believe in?
7
Who do you believe in?
8
[Verse One: 2Pac]
9
I see mothers in black cryin, brothers in packs dyin
10
Plus everybody's high, too doped up to ask why
11
Watchin our own downfall, witness the end
12
It's like we don't believe in God cause we livin in sin
13
I asked my homie on the block why he strapped, he laughed
14
Pointed his pistol as the cop car passed and blast
15
It's just another murder, nobody mourns no more
16
My tear drops gettin bigger but can't figure what I'm cryin for
17
Is it the miniature caskets, little babies
18
Victims of a stray, from drug dealers gone crazy
19
Maybe it's just the drugs, visions of how the block was
20
Crack came and it was strange how it rocked us
21
Perhaps the underlyin fact stay high explain genocide
22
It's when we ride on our own kind
23
What is it we all fear, reflections in the mirror
24
We can't escape fate, the end is gettin nearer
25
[Chorus 2X: 2Pac]
26
Who do you believe in?
27
I put my faith in God, blessed and still breathin
28
And even though it's hard, that's who I believe in
29
Before I'm leavin, I'm askin the grievin - who do you believe in?
30
[Verse Two: 2Pac]
31
Can't close my eyes cause all I see is terror
32
I hate the man in the mirror
33
Cause his reflection makes the pain turn realer
34
Times of Armageddeon, murder in mass amounts
35
In this society where only gettin the cash counts
36
I started out as a beginner
37
Entered the criminal lifestyle became a sinner
38
I make my money and vacate, evade prison
39
Went from the chosen one to outcast, unforgiven
40
And all the Hennessy and weed can't hide, the pain I feel inside
41
You know, it's like I'm livin just to die
42
I fall on my knees and beg for mercy, not knowin if I'm worthy
43
Livin life thinkin no man can hurt me
44
So I'm askin -- before I lay me down to sleep
45
Before you judge me, look at all the shit you did to me, my misery
46
I rose up from the slums, made it out the flames
47
In my search for fame will I change? I'm askin
48
[Chorus]
49
[Verse Three: Kadafi]
50
Faith in Allah, believe in me and this plastic
51
Cause so far I done witnessed to many dead niggaz in caskets
52
With they chest plates stretched like elastic
53
And what's worse I'm on front line, holdin down camp, still mashin
54
Heard my cousin, one of the old heads from the block
55
Just came home October of '95 back in Yardsville stuck
56
with a three to five, if he don't act up, now he realize
57
If you don't stay wise, then in this game you fucked
58
Talk to my baby girl, give me the word on what she heard
59
One of the grimmies is snitchin, Diamond a stool pigeon I talked to him
60
He said he didn't, my man said he did, in fact he's sure
61
Cause he just came home off of bail
62
[2Pac] Now tell me
63
[Chorus]
64
[Outro: spoken word]
65
Who do you believe in?
66
Is it Buddah, Jehovah, or Jah? Or Allah?
67
Is it Jesus? Is it God? Or is just yourself?
68
Definately not to be imposed, being a demon
69
Because this is the joy of believing!
70
Men, to believe in yourselves
71
But for sure, the higher power
72
Resides only to ride in the heart of the true
73
From the soul, of the man; for truth never has an alibi
74
In the poetry, or in it's realm
75
That's what pulls all words together
76
Just to understand, that every man, is his OWN man
77
And only man can satisfy the man
78
Only the soul of the man, the feelings of the man
79
The for realness of the man
80
You can't shake the man when you feel the man you know the man
81
And you gotta call yourself because you are that man
82
[2Pac]
83
Who do you believe in?

I put my faith in God, blessed and still breathin
85
