2Pac, Big Pimpin’ Delemond, Nanci Fletcher, Yaki Kadafi - Who Do You Believe In lyrics

Let us pray, Heavenly Father
Hear a nigga down here before I go to sleep
Tell me, who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in?

I see mothers in black, cryin'
Brothers in packs dyin'
Plus everybody's high
Too doped up to ask why
Watchin' our own downfall, witness the end
It's like we don't believe in God
‘cause we livin' in sin
I asked my homie on the block why he strapped
He laughed, pointed his pistol as
The cop car passed, and blast
It's just another murder
Nobody mourns no more
My tear drops gettin' bigger
But can't figure what I'm cryin' for
Is it the miniature caskets, little babies?
Victims of a stray


From drug dealers gone crazy?
Maybe it's just the drugs
Visions of how the block was
Crack came and it was strange
How it rocked us
Perhaps the underlyin' fact, stay high
Explain genocide
It's when we ride on our own kind
What is it we all fear?
Reflections in the mirror
We can't escape fate
The end is gettin' nearer

Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
And even though it's hard
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
And even though it's hard
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?

Can't close my eyes
‘cause all I see is terror
I hate the man in the mirror
‘Cause his reflection makes the
Pain turn realer
Times of Armageddon, murder in mass amounts
In this society where only
Gettin' the cash counts
I started out as a beginner
Entered the criminal lifestyle
Became a sinner
I make my money, and vacate, evade prison
Went from the chosen one to an outcast
Unforgivin'
And all the Hennessy and weed can't
Hide the pain I feel inside
You know, it's like I'm livin' just to die
I fall on my knees and beg for mercy
Not knowin' if I'm worthy
Livin' life thinkin' no man can hurt me
So I'm askin', before I lay me down to sleep
Before you judge me
Look at all the shit you did to me my misery
I rose up from the slums
Made it out the flames
In my search for fame, will I change?
I'm askin'

Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
And even though it's hard
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
And even though it's hard
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?

Faith in Allah
Believe in me and this plastic
‘Cause so far I done witnessed too
Many dead niggas in caskets
With they chest plates stretched
Like elastic
And what's worse I'm on front line
Holdin' down camp, still mashin'
Heard my cousin
One of the old heads from the block
Just came home October of '95
Back in Yardsville stuck
With a three to five, if he don't act up
Now he realize, if you don't stay wise
Then in this game you fucked
Talk to my baby girl
Give me the word on what she heard
One of the grimies is snitchin', dimin'
A stool pigeon
I talked to him he said he didn't
My man said he did in fact he's sure
‘cause he just came home off of bid

Now tell me, who do you believe in?
I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
And even though it's hard
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
And even though it's hard
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?

Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
And even though it's hard
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
And even though it's hard
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
And even though it's hard
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
And even though it's hard
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?

Who do you believe in?
Is it Buddah, Jehovah, or Jah? Or Allah?
Is it Jesus? Is it God?
Or is it just yourself?
Definitely not to be imposed, being a demon
Because this is the joy of believin'
Man, to believe in yourselves
But for sure, the higher power
Resides only to ride in the heart of the true
From the soul
Of the man for truth never has an alibi
In the poetry, or in it's realm
That's what pulls all words together
Just to understand that every man
Is his own man
And only man can satisfy the man
Only the soul of the man
The feelings of the man
The for realness of the man
You can't shake the man when you give the man
You know the man
And you gotta call yourself
Because you are that man

Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
(blessed and still breathin)
(even though it's hard)
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
(before I'm leavin') even though it's hard
(I'm askin' the grievin')
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in?
Blessed and still breathin'
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in? I put my faith in God
Blessed and still breathin'
Even though it's hard
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in? Put my faith in God
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in?
Blessed and still breathin'
That's who I believe in
Before I'm leavin', I'm askin' the grievin'
Who do you believe in?
Who do you believe in?
