2Pac : They got me mobbin like I'm Loc'ed And ready to get my slug on I load my clip and slip my motherfuckin' gloves on I ain't scared to blast on these suckas if they test me Trust, I got my glock cocked playa if they press me Bust on motherfuckers with a - paaassion Better duck cause I ain't lookin when I'm - b-blaaastin I'm a nut and drinkin Hennessey and gettin' high On the lookout for my enemies, don't wanna die Tell me why? 'Cause this stress is gettin' major A buck-fifty across the face with my razor What can I do but be a thug until I'm dead and gone Keep my brain on the game and stay head strong These sorry bastards want to kill me in my sleep But will they can I see And everyday it just a struggle Steady thuggin' in the streets And I'll be ballin' loc Don't let 'em make you worry Keep swingin' at these suckas till you buried I was born to raise hell, a nigga from the gutta, Word to Mutha I'm touched I'm kickin dust up Ready to bust I'm on the scene steady muggin' mean Until they kill me I'll be livin this life I know you feel me There's so much pain

Big L : Nobody can take nothing from Big L but a loss chief The last punk who fronted got a mouth full of false teeth I'm known to gas a hottie and blast the shottie Got more cash than Gotti, you don't know, you better ask somebody Big L is a crazy brother, and I'm a lady lover A smooth kid that'll run up in your baby mother I push a slick Benz, I'm known to hit skins And get ends and commit sins with sick friends Cause I'm a money getter, also a honey hitter You think you nice as me? Ha ha, you'se a funny nigga I flows so one of my shows, wouldn't be clever to miss I'm leaving competitors pissed To tell you the truth, it gets no better than this I'm catching wreck to the break of dawn In this song, yo it's a must that I put it on.... Big L is the villain you still fear Cause I be hanging in Harlem and shit is for real here If you battle L you picked the wrong head I smash mics like cornbread, you can't kill me I was born dead And I'm known to pull steel trigs and kill pigs I run with ill kids and real nigs who peel wigs My rap's steady slamming, I keep a heavy cannon!
