(feat. P. Diddy, Eminem, Obie Trice)
2
[Eminem + {B. I. G.}]
3
Ih.. Ih, ih (it has been)
4
It has been, it has been, it has been
5
It has been said, that there has been known to be bloodshed
6
Over bread, men who have bled to death, dead {what?}
7
Strapped to beds, pipe bombs, dynamite, lead
8
Money power respect, street cred, yeah
9
It's scary ain't it? Picture yourself goin out as a hero {uhh}
10
Picture mural pictures of us painted all over street corners
11
Fans meet to mourn us, while we meet the coroners
12
Notorious tried to warn us
13
We've ride so many piggybacks off of {ha ha ha}
14
Biggie's back and 'Pac's, landmarks, history in rap
15
Statistically in fact; it's so sad to see us re-enact
16
These tragic events, which lead us back
17
To where we left off on March 9th
18
To come from such hard knock lifes
19
And make it up out of 'em, hit the spotlights
20
And, once they're on us this is our lives
21
Thrust out for all eyes to cast upon us
22
To see who can last the longest
23
And he who lasts the longest, must be the strongest {uh-huh}
24
In this concrete jungle, where this dog eat dog mentality comes from
25
It's origin, which is usually originated from cats who starvin
26
Or it could just be somebody's horror, that just horri-fies
27
And applies to his persona or the sizes
28
In his entou-rage, that intimidates the people
29
To the point that you know that he's gangster
30
He ain't just say shit, you just believe it
31
[Obie Trice + {B. I. G.}]
32
Since B. I. B. Taught us niggaz to think big
33
I'm been about my business since then, so anxious {what?}
34
It ain't how we live, it's what he said, he did it for Brooklyn
35
This I took in, sent chills through my skin
36
Vicious, I'm experiencin the same sights as him
37
It's what excited Obie to write these poems
38
Rollin, goin through the same shit he spoken
39
Open up my eyes so there's no limit in them skies
40
When _Ready to Die_ was a sick part of my life {yeah}
41
Palmin that forty-five, plottin to pop my mind
42
Then that crooked eye Jamaican I'd so many times rewind
43
Got me to walk a straight line and get up on my grind
44
Get up out the system, who could give him better signs
45
No pop of mine could top Big Poppa rhymes
46
So possibly I'd be popular huh? {uh-huh}
47
That's the inspiration I got from my nigga B. I.
48
[Diddy + {B. I. G.}]
49
I took him from coal to diamond, I molded his mind
50
Enter the most phenomenal artist of any and all time
51
I made a Frankenstein, my design impressed
52
Backpackers and press who said my house was a mess
53
Critics lashed, said I made a fortune off of his passin {what?}
54
All I did was build a dynasty, off of his passion
55
And I'm addressin the adolesencents absent to who he is
56
The original king of New York, Christopher Wallace...
57
This is a promise on Diddy's honor, I'm a father T'Yanna
58
And teach her that with all the drama don't even bother...
59
On repeat, all of your albums play back to back {yeah}
60
And I visit your grave cause our friendship's intact
61
An immaculate concept, extravagant progress
62
Bullet wounds left in my heart, I'm yellin "God bless"
63
Regardless to critics yellin that East/West
64
I seen the game losin, I'm just pressin the reset {uhh}
65
And when the ressurection of you shines through an individual
66
Lyrical enough to wear the same crown of thorns literally!
67
I'ma pay homage, Brooklyn's finest
68
Whether it's Queens or Harlem it'll be instant stardom, nigga!
