Trae Tha Truth, 2Pac - Please Respect It lyrics

I ain't letting shit go
I mean who the hell give
These people the right
To tell me who I should stand up for?
Goin tell me I represent for those people
Who the fuck is those people?
What'chu talkin' bout the slumps, the gutta
Look I ain't you
I ain't goin never turn my back

Last year was a hard one, but life goes on
Hold my head against the wall
Learning right from wrong
They say my-me for the outcome
Ban my records check it
Don't have to bump this
But please respect it
I took a-me for the outcome, ban my records
Check it, don't have to bump this
But please respect it
I took a minus and now the
Hard times are behind us turned into a plus
Now they stuck living blinded

My last year was the worst
But my life goes on
I been balance most of my life
I feel like something is wrong
I know this goin be okay soon
As I weather this storm
And make a call up there of God
I hope he answer his phone
They say my music for the less
Fortunate people in the bad place
What about all the victims and
Children with a sad case
I'm they big homie and I won't turn
My back for none of y'all
Ever try to hurt or maybe
Hell on everyone of y'all
Maybe that's why they out
Here banning my records check it
Ain't gotta like tha Truth
But please respect it i'm on that Pac shit
Even if I fall I try to do my best
Tell em I was focus on the
Slumps I couldn't see the rest
Within the process I seen
Alot wishing me harm
Knowing the truth need the only
Thang keeping me calm
And even know I know that hateful
Shit ain't bad to me i had to make myself a
Sacrifice so people can see

Last year was a hard one, but life goes on
(life goes on) hold my head against the wall
Learning right from wrong
(learning right from wrong)
They say my-me for the outcome
Ban my records (they ban my records)
Check it, don't have to bump this
But please respect it
(homie please respect it)
I took a-me for the outcome, ban my records
(they ban my records) check it
Don't have to bump this
But please respect it
(homie please respect it)
I took a minus and now the
Hard times are behind us (cheeah)
Turned into a plus
Now they stuck living blinded

All this time in the drain
Got me losing my cool
Instead of teaming with the fake I
Choose to move with this tool
I keep it for my protection
Knowing nothing is real
So either streets or with this rapping
They got something to feel
All I did was gave my life to
Em for what it is nothing else
I shall they knew that wouldn't
Understand knowing they something else
They try to count me out
Take away from me and mine
Yeah the road is low but I know
One thang I'm goin be a shine
If God is my shield no
Weapon shall prosper the solider
I am the truth and you can bred
It was there if I told ya
I'm standing strong I ain't goin be
The one they pushing over
I'm frowning now but I'll be smiling
For they say it's over
It's me against the world
Homie that's no lie
Sunny days never chill they only roll by
They want my thoughts so I'm a load
Up and give it to em
I stamp it box it up and then send it too em

Last year was a hard one, but life goes on
(life goes on) hold my head against the wall
Learning right from wrong
(learning right from wrong)
They say my-me for the outcome
Ban my records (they ban my records)
Check it, don't have to bump this
But please respect it
(homie please respect it)
I took a-me for the outcome, ban my records
(they ban my records) check it
Don't have to bump this
But please respect it
(homie please respect it)
I took a minus and now the
Hard times are behind us (cheeah)
Turned into a plus
Now they stuck living blinded
