[ti:Death Around The Corner]
[ar:Tupac]
[al:Me Against The World]
[00:00.300] Why you by the window what's wrong daddy
[00:02.920] I know what's wrong with that crazy motherf**ker
[00:04.920] He's just stand by the goddamn window
[00:06.630] With that f**kin' AK all day
[00:09.070] You don't work you don't f**k you don't
[00:10.600] You don't do a goddamn thing
[00:12.240] I see death around the corner gotta stay high while I survive
[00:15.320] In the city where the skinny niggas die
[00:17.300] If they bury me bury me as a G nigga no need to worry
[00:20.440] I expect retaliation in a hurry
[00:22.470] I see death around the corner anyday
[00:24.870] Trying to keep it together no one lives forever anyway
[00:27.710] Struggling and striving my destiny's to die
[00:30.200] Keep my finger on the trigger no mercy in my eyes
[00:32.730] In a ball of confusion I think about my daddy
[00:35.210] Madder than a motherf**ker they never shoulda had me
[00:38.360] I guess I seen too many murders the doctors can't help me
[00:41.170] Got me stressin' with my pistol in my sheets it ain't healthy
[00:43.850] Am I paranoid tell me the truth
[00:45.500] I'm out the window with my AK ready to shoot
[00:48.050] Ran out of endo and my mind can't take the stress
[00:50.700] I'm out of breath
[00:51.560] Make me wanna kill my damn self
[00:53.240] But I see death around the corner
[00:54.990] When we were kids belonging felt good
[00:58.630] I see death around the corner
[00:59.960] But having respect that feels even better
[01:03.360] I see death around the corner
[01:04.970]
[01:06.310] When we were kids belonging felt good
[01:09.490] I see death around the corner
[01:10.600]
[01:11.600] But having respect that feels even better
[01:14.480] I see death around the corner
[01:15.830] The pressure's getting to me
[01:16.790] I no longer trust my homies
[01:17.980] Them phonies tried to do me
[01:19.290] Smoking too much weed
[01:20.600] Got me paranoid stressed
[01:22.010] Pack a gat and my vest
[01:23.050] Under my clothes when I dress
[01:24.420] Here's hoping I die the way I lived
[01:26.530] Straight thuggin'
[01:27.120] Huggin' my trigger for all them niggas
[01:29.160] Who was buggin'
[01:29.750] My homie told me once
[01:30.990] Don't you trust them other suckers
[01:32.380] They fought like they your homies
[01:33.620] But they phony motherf**kers
[01:34.960] And even if I did die young who cares
[01:37.590] All I ever got was mean mugs and cold stares
[01:40.140] I got homies in my head
[01:41.320] Who done passed away screaming please
[01:43.820] Young nigga make Gs
[01:45.690] I can't give up although I'm hopeless
[01:47.520] I think my mind's gone
[01:48.800] All I can do is get my grind on death around the corner
[01:51.790]
[01:52.520] When we were kids belonging felt good
[01:55.500] I see death around the corner
[01:56.540]

[02:10.690]
[02:11.380] I was raised in the city shitty
[02:13.720] Ever since I was an itty bitty kitty
[02:15.600] Drinkin' liquor out my momma's titty
[02:17.370] And smokin' weed was an everyday thang in my household
[02:20.590] And drinking liquor till you out cold
[02:22.550] And tho' I'm gone now nigga it's still on Pow
[02:25.080] Busting on them niggas till they gone
[02:26.660] How many more jealous ass bitches coming for my riches
[02:29.810] Now I gotta stay suspicious when I bone
[02:31.790] Cause if I ain't sharp and heartless
[02:33.930] Them bitches will start shit
[02:35.080] Excuse me but this is where we part bitch
[02:37.380] No more game for free please explain to me
[02:39.970] Why niggas trip bitch who you came to see
[02:42.680] Murderin' now but see me later man as for my pops
[02:45.460] I got homies that will hunt you till you drop
[02:47.890] I hope the lord will forgive me I was a G
[02:50.550] And getting high was a way of getting free
[02:52.580] I see death around the corner
[02:53.750]

[03:55.980] I want his family dead I want his house burned to the ground
[03:59.460] I want to got there in the middle of the night
[04:00.970]
[04:02.510] I want that son of a bitch dead I want him dead
[04:04.860] I want him dead I don't care
[04:06.860]
