(Intro: 2Pac) The only way I've been practicing my whole life Is to be responsible for what I do I don't know how to be responsible for what every black male did I don't know, yes I am gonna say that I'm a thug That's becuz I came from the gutter and I'm still here
(Verse: Glasses Malone) I'm a muthafuckin' thug, I hate paying taxes Just hate it, I'm tryin' to fuck a couple actresses If I don't got it I'ma make it Still don't got it, I'ma take it Run that shit, take yo shit, that's what I won't do Out here doing what I want to, nigga ya do what ya can That's the difference, I'm a muthafuckin' man I'm a man, nigga, and as a man I don't take that I don't do Versace, that's that gay shit Yeah I said it, I'm a thug I'm a thug, nigga, guess I need a muthafuckin' hug Well dig my mama up and tell her give me one Lotta niggas say they're real, I'm the realest one I'm the realest, this exactly how I'm feelin', bruh Ain't no chilling, bro, I'm a muthafuckin' thug
(Hook x4) I'm a muthafuckin' thug
(Verse 2: Glasses Malone) It's all about the Benjamins Nigga, fuck George Zimmerman How it's pistol versus hand? Take yo whooping like a muthafuckin' man Pussy, damn, how hard can a kid hit? And why them local rappers ain't did shit? Lil Wayne said 'fuck the Heat' Same local rapper niggas wanted beef Fun, brother versus brother No hesitation when ya face the same color None, I'm saying what the fuck ya niggas stand fo'?

(Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar) Sumetimes I look in the mirror and ask myself what I'm scared of How dare the media portray me this way, I can hear the Crowd screamin', the weirdest of chants, they all in my ear Artist of era, role model I can't It's like I'm a parrot, apparently I'm markin' the dance I seen done with the devil, such a ghetto romance How many niggas fall victim, lookin' at ya trapped in the system Mentally they kept ya in prison, and ya won't get out, no one visit Open up yo mouth no one listen, ya in denial, nigga I'm in denial wit ya, I dial dead homies numbers off this liquor Time and time again I find myself inside the cerebellum Of several felons, Orion's belt couldn't live in my world I seen tigers, lions let lose, I'm next door to Earl I guess I rely on Jesus to save us befo' I refer The madness, my neighbours witness get mashed The masses don't know I'm packin' this four and harassing yo hoe Antagonizin' the business ya luv the most See the difference to my approach is a forty ounce at the store If a forty bounce, to get low, I neva learn, I'm hard headed The corporate world don't like it but I said it
(Hook x4)
(Bridge x2) Look in my eyes, what do ya see? God Orion lives in me
