2Pac, Outlawz - Starin' Through My Rear View lyrics

Starin' at the world through my rearview
Just lookin' back at the world
From another level
You know what I mean? Starin'

Multiple gunshots clear the block
The fun stops
Snitches is callin' cops, people shot
Nobody stops
I wonder when the world stopped carin'
Last night two kids shot while
The whole block starin'
I will never understand this society
First they try to murder me
Then they lie to me
Product of a dyin' breed all
My homies tryin' weed
Now the little babies crazed
Raised off Hennessy tell me
Will my enemies flee when they see me?
Believe me
Even thugs gotta learn to take it easy
Listen, through intermissions
Search your heart for a plan
And we turnin' bad boys to grown men
It's on again i give a holla to my
Niggas in the darkest corners
Roll a perfect blunt
And let me spark it for ya
One love from a thug nigga
Rollin' with a posse full
Of paranoid drug dealers
To the end, my friend
I'm seein' nothin' but my dreams comin' true
While I'm starin' at the
World through my rearview
See, I'm seein' nothin' but
My dreams comin' true
While I'm starin' at the
World through my rearview

They got me starin' at the
World through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beatin' fast
'cause it's time to die
Gettin' high, watchin' time fly
And all my motherfuckers
Starin' at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beatin' fast
'cause it's time to die
Gettin' high, watchin' time fly
And all my motherfuckers

Now you see him, now you don't
Some niggas be here for the moment
And then they gone what happened to 'em?
Well, let's see, it seems to be a mystery
But all I know I never let
The money get to me
Stay down like the truest
Thug Life until I check out this bitch
I thought you knew this
Who is gonna catch me when I
Fall or even care to?
While you thinkin' I see you
Lost up in my rearview
Hear you is down with them Outlawz
Outcast, left far, I'm through like southpaws
But still we keep mashin' until
Our dreams come through
Starin' at the world through my rearview

Now, I was raised as a young black male
In order to get paid
Forced to make crack sales
Caught a nigga so they send
Me to these overpacked jails in the cell
Countin' days in this livin' black hell
Do you feel me? Keys to ignition
Use at your discretion
Roll with a 12 gauge pump for protection
Niggas hate me in the section
From years of chin-checkin'
Turn to Smith & Wesson war weapons
Heavenly Father, I'm a soldier
I'm gettin' hotter 'cause the
World's gettin' colder
Baby, let me hold ya: talk to
My guns like they fly bitches
All you bustas best to run
Look at my bitches!

Now I know the answers to the question
"Do dreams come true?"
Still starin' at the world
Through my rearview
I said, now I know the answer
"Do dreams come true?"
Starin' at the world through my rearview

They got me starin' at the
World through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beatin' fast
'cause it's time to die
Gettin' high, watchin' time fly
And all my motherfuckers
Starin' at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beatin' fast
'cause it's time to die
Gettin' high, watchin' time fly

Nigga, Kadafi say!

Back in the days we hustled
For sneakers and beepers nine-six for Glocks
'Cause fiends hittin' up blocks
With street sweepers
Bless myself when knowin' rules
To these streets
Somethin' I learned in school
On some Million Man March shit for the peace
True that, only one life to lead
A fast life of greed
Criminally addicted, infested since a seed
We all die, breed, bleed like humans
Towns run by young guns, Outlawz and truants
Shit's deep, turn eighteen
Burn my will when I go
Burnt my body with my shotty
Or choosin' my dough
So while you reminiscin' all nights
Out with the crew smoke a blunt for me too
I'm starin' through your rearview

Ha ha haha, you ain't knowin' what we mean
By starin' through the rearview
So, since you ain't knowin' what we mean
Let me break it better understandin' the
World…The world is behind us
Once a motherfucker get an
Understandin' on the game
And what the levels and the
Rules of the game is
Then the world ain't no trick no more
The world is a game to be played
So, now we lookin' at the
World from, high watch, behind us
Niggas know what we gotta do:
Just gotta put our mind
To it and do it, it's all about the papers
Money rule the world
Bitches make the world go round
Real niggas do what they wanna do
Bitch niggas do what they can

They got me starin' at the
World through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beatin' fast
'cause it's time to die
Gettin' high, watchin' time fly
And all my motherfuckers
Starin' at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beatin' fast
'cause it's time to die
Gettin' high, watchin' time fly
