- Never B Peace feat The Outlawz (Produced By Dj Tricki)
[Verse One: 2Pac] Now of course I want peace on the streets, but realistically Paintin perfect pictures ain't never worked, my misery was so deep, couldn't sleep through all my pressures In my quest for cash I learned fast, usin violent measures Memories of adolescent years, there was unity But after puberty we brought war, to our community So many bodies droppin it's gotta stop, I wanna help But still I'm steppin, keep my weapon, must protect myself The promise of a better tomorrow, ain't never reached me Plus my teachers was too petrified in class to teach me Sippin Thunderbird and grape Kool-Aid, callin earl Since my stomach was empty it seduced me to fuck the world Watch my lil' homies lose they childhoods to guns Nobody cries no more, cause we all die for fun So why you ask me if I want peace, if you can't grant it Niggaz fightin 'cross the whole planet, so it could never be peace
[First Chorus: 2Pac] Will there ever be peace, or are we all just headed for doom, still consumed by the beast And I know - there'll never be peace That's why I keep my pistol when I walk the streets Cause there could never be peace
[Verse Two: Kastro] Somebody owes me - will they control me? Not I ain't a hater player but I want all you got Y'all babies had babies now we fightin each other My dawgs got rabies, they bitin each other And it ain't hard to find a friend like mine Bigfully is a bullet and he don't mind dyin And I gotta be blind, missed sign after sign Time after time, after time after time And I don't like nobody, they don't like me more And I'm good with that finally but it heard it before Dawg, we livin in a prison, losin our religion On, Thanksgiving we thankful, just for livin in Hell Damn homey, I don't mean to be harsh But there's a Devil in the ghetto tryin to tear it apart And if we make it up out, we still stuck in the dark Will there ever be peace? Just a piece of my heart Never
[Interlude: Outlawz] The only peace, we got, is a piece of our heart Piece of our mind, or that damn piece, that we hold in our waistline You feel me dawg? C'mon, uhh
[Middle Chorus: 2Pac] So will there ever be peace, or are we all just headed for doom, still consumed by the beast And I know - there'll never be peace (never) That's why I keep my pistol when I walk the streets Cause there'll never be peace
[Verse Three: Napolean] Thangs is changin, nigga you better read the signs I'm only concerned about me and mine in these times The world is a ghetto and peace is not a part of it We all believe God's new plan to make it out of this Niggaz spendin too much time hatin on each other Niggaz buyin guns, loadin 'em up, aimin at each other And the victim is you and me, it's sick but it's true indeed The GOOd Die, Mostly Over Bullshit, repeatedly Deep in me there's a part that wants nothin but love But the rest of me know, war is what's waitin for us So I stays ready, keep my pay heavy and boss up Stack my funds and my guns, never rely on luck Askin God to point out the imposter Never let no weapon formed against me prosper Cause there'll never be peace, so don't rely on it Soldiers dyin for it - and in the ghetto, they cryin for it But fuck peace!
[Final Chorus: 2Pac] Will there ever be peace, or are we all just headed for doom, still consumed by the beast And I know - there'll never be peace That's why I keep my pistol when I walk the streets Fool, there'll never be peace
Will there ever be peace, or are we all just headed for doom, still consumed by the beast And I know - there'll never be peace That's why I keep my pistol when I walk the streets Nigga there'll never be peace
