[Interviewer]
Between you and Biggie, it was like,
Who's gon', who's gon'..
 [bad word] the [bad word] kingdom and [bad word]  basically
You know what I'm sayin'...
I was like, this is like a [bad word] election!
It is an election and [bad word] 
You know what I'm saying?

[2pac]
It is that, It is that!
Me and Biggie's situation is smarter than that,
Me and Biggie's situation is like...

[Ambulance radio]
Central, we got a black male shot...

[Singing]
You know I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead...

[News reporter]
Tupac Shakur got shot 7 times in the chest...

[2pac]
While i'm in jail, strangers is telling me:
"You don't know?
Biggie homeboy shot you!"
And they braggin'!
And thats why what I'm doing...
I don't know what I'm doing,
I'm screaming, i'm screaming...

 [bad word] 
Why am I fighting to live
If I'm just living to fight?
Why am I trying to see
When there ain't nothing in sight?
Why am I trying to give
When no one gives me a try?
Why am I dying to live
If I'm just living to die?

[Notorious B.I.G.]
Check it!
I grew up, a [bad word] [bad word] up
Got introduced to the game,
Got a ounce and [bad word] blew up
Choppin rocks overnight
The [bad word] Biggie Smalls
Tryin to turn into the black Frank White
We had to grow dreads
To change our description
Two cops is on the milk box, "Missing"
Show they toes, you know they got stepped on
fist full of bullets, a chest full of teflon [bad word] from the police, picture that
 [bad word] i'm too fat
I [bad word] around and catch a asthma attack
That's why i bust back, it don't phase me
When he drop, take his glock
And i'm swayze
Celebrate my escape
Sold the glock, bought some weight
Laid back, i got some money to make,
 [bad word] #33;

I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead...

Why am I fighting to live
If I'm just living to fight?
Why am I trying to see
When there ain't nothing in sight?
Why am I trying to give
When no one gives me a try?
Why am I dying to live
If I'm just living to die?

[Notorious B.I.G.]
Tupac's still dead, you know what i'm saying...
Just... don't feed into it
If you feed into it, it's going up and escalate
You know what i'm saying...
I know about the [bad word] ..
I know what people would believe that was the [bad word] 

[2pac]
It's on me...
But still i'm havin memories
Of high speed when the cops crashed,
As i laughed
Pushin the gas when my Glocks blast
We was young and we was dumb but we had heart
In the dark, where we survived through the bad parts
Many dreams is what i had, and plenty wishes,
No hesitation in extermination of these snitches
And these [bad word]  they still continue to persue me
couple o' movies,
Now the whole world is tryin to [bad word] me
Even the cops tried to sue me
So what can I do, but stay [bad word] 
Sippin 22's of brew
And now the media is trying to test me,
Got the press asking questions, tryin' to stress me
Misery is all I see, thats my mind state
My history with the police
Would shake the crimerate
My main man had two strikes slipped,
Got arrested and flipped,
He screamed "Thug Life!" and emptied the clip,
Got tired [bad word] from the police...

I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead...

Why am I fighting to live
If I'm just living to fight?
Why am I trying to see
When there ain't nothing in sight?
Why am I trying to give
When no one gives me a try?
Why am I dying to live
If I'm just living to die?

[Notorious B.I.G.]
I was shocked and everything, you know what I'm sayin'
But i wasn't more shocked of him dying,
I was more shocked of him... (*ding*)
Pac is a strong dude yo, i know dudes
