LYRICS

[2Pac:]

As the world turns…

As the world turns my niggas grow and grow and grow

And get dough and roll and ride

Niggas die and mommas cry

Niggas got alibis and suicides and homicides

And three strikes and yo’ life and my life and times change

And niggas fame, as the world turns…

 

[2Pac:]

Though I walk through the valley of Hell the shadow follows me. Wisdom hard to swallow tomorrow, expect apologies

You probably panic, stranded in search of a better planet

Realism hard to understand, we stand slanted

And still stranded. Merciless thieves stole the best of me

I pray to black Jesus to please take the rest of me

And still, the best of us build and reach monetary gains

Some of us kill, but still, most of us can change

If we search deeper

God bless the hustler, curse the first sleeper

Enemies get beside me, flows go deep as Poseidon

When we ride, plots keep all my enemies blinded

Time will soon show, a thought can last for years

Outshinin’ your fake smiles, plastic tears

Like last year, niggas stuck in the past, and it’s clear

Just some busta ass bastards allergic to cash this year

Makaveli for the mob, M.O.B

Killin’ busters is my motherfuckin’ job, him or me

Lyrically fatally driven, niggas reported missin’

My competition dead or in prison, as the world turns…

 

[Darryl ‘Big D’ Harper (2Pac):]

As the world keeps turnin’ round and round

It’s gon’ be goin’ round as the world turns, and steady turnin’

(Turns, turns, turns, turns and turns

My niggas grow and grow and grow

And gettin’ dough and dough and dough

From this state to that state

From this cell to that cell, as the world turns)

 

[Young Noble:]

As the world turn, burnin’ paths, starin’ through my rearview

It’s a war goin’ on, and the President is here too

I hear 2Pac sayin’, “Watch ’em, they’ll kill you.”

Sippin Thug Passion, scrub actin’ like he feel you

Steady plottin’, ready or not; Outlawz lost but not forgotten

From Gittere to Compton, a spitter of the hotness

Long time, since like six I ain’t never been rich

I need cream to buy Ellene a dream house

She no longer fiend out y’all, Outlaw!

 

[Napoleon:]

Another lonely nigga with a 12-gauge pump, with a 12-hour rush to run and get this money, fuck these punks!

Road rules, I swim in the dirt, I stay in some skirt

I hit where it hurts, I ride or die for my turf

I ride or die for Makaveli, the legendary war thug nigga

Kadafi better unslug this nigga, Seike betta undrug this nigga

Out of the buildin’, we street children with no souls

Our hearts gon’ stay cold, the war gon’ stay on

We serve ’em, like ‘Pac told us to, catch ’em wreck with the TEC

Hit ’em in the neck and watch him die like he supposed to

Napoleon: the front line soldier, front times over

Rider for the mighty dollar, rather drunk than sober

Nigga talkin’ thug walkin’ all through yo’ squad

Y’all niggas scared by a dog, I got my 44 for y’all

It’s like a hot-heated day, homie

Warfare, don’t play, homie, better be prepared

Then try to duck away from these strays, homie

Worlds turn, things burn, all in one shot. Rest in peace to the fallen soldiers, all that we got, as the world turns…

 

[Darryl ‘Big D’ Harper (2Pac):]

As the world keeps turnin’ round and round

(And my niggas roll and ride, hahaha)

It’s gon’ be goin’ round as the world turns… and steady turnin’

(Niggas gettin’ swoll out, and it don’t stop and it don’t quit

That real shit!) (real shit)

As the world keeps turnin’ round and round

(How many you niggas try for this? )

It’s gon’ be goin’ round as the world turns (as the world turns)

(Murderin’ methods.. haha, OUTLAW!)

[E.D.I. Amin:]

Only haters caught feelings when my homie caught millions

And acquired the desired status of boss livin’

We cross driven, cornered into a life that’s hellish

Payin’ our dues with bloodshed, ain’t shit y’all could tell us

Fellas – mount up, it’s time for battle, it’s on now

Two worlds collidin’, armies ridin’, soldiers gone wild

Sometimes I think my glory days was back in my youth

I sought too for family, but I got it lost in these ounces

Now, as the world turns court adjourns, I’m sentenced to burn

The cost of my sins too much, nothin’ left to earn

 

[Kadafi:]

October 9th 1977 first day out my baby carriage

Married my MAC-11 hit the block playin’

Only five years up in this bitch, papa runnin’ from the feds

Puttin’ peanut butter on the walls to hide his prints

Me on my own, not yet grown, but only man of the home

To protect my zone in these streets I roam

Dough on d-low, downin’ straight shots of Cristal Brothers

100 dollar snot box on cee-lo, fuck eighth

I need a kilo, got a plot, move my block down state

Got the drop on the spot, movin’ pounds of weight

Fuck my fate and lots of loot to burn, a hustler’s yearn

For this dirty money earned as this crooked world turns

 

[Overlapped — Darryl ‘Big D’ Harper:]

As the world keeps turnin’ round and round

It’s gon’ be goin’ round as the world turns… and steady turnin’

As the world keeps turnin’ round and round

It’s gon’ be goin’ round as the world turns…

As the world keeps turnin’ round and round

It’s gon’ be goin’ round as the world turns…

As the world keeps turnin’ round and round

It’s gon’ be goin’ round as the world turns… and steady turnin’

As the world keeps turnin’ round and round

As the world keeps turnin’ round and round

As the world keeps turnin’ round and round

 

[2Pac & Napolean:]

Hahaha… as the world turns…

And turns and turns and turns… haha. This for the soldiers out there involved in the everyday struggle

Hopin’ to bubble, keep on hustlin’, as the world turns

Money come and go, hoes come and go, foes come and go, friends come and go… my soldiers stay eternal

Outlaw Immortalz, dedicated

I send this to black Jesus, only he can feed us

When you need us, as the world turns

Throw this shit in the deck, hahah

Niggas gettin chin checked

From the East to the West, best to wear a vest

Nigga we ain’t the ones to test, fuck you!

As the world turns… Outlaw ridahs, Mutah right beside us

Camillion, wanna make a million

Haha legit, as the world turns, haha… burn, baby, burn

 

(A lot of niggas get burned as the world turns

A lot of niggas gettin’ burned as the world turns

Gettin’ burned as the world turns)
