[Napoleon talking] Yeah, we gone dedicate this one, to the memory... ... of Makaveli the Don, Tupac You know, we got these cats, re-makin' these songs Nobody wanna give you a song, it's from the lil' homie Strength of the strong
[Napoleon] I don't know where to start, dear God can you open my heart Let me share with this world my art, this not no R.I.P song It's a tribute to the spirit of Pac, I still remember when you visit my block I was a juvenile, in 94' I was stuck in the war Didn't know the meaning of life or what I was breathin' for You gave me a hand; you gave me your plan Thug-Life world-wide with expand That was your dreams homie Now it's present right in front of your eyes They can't tell me your soul ain't alive Cause I can feel it homie Dear lord please forgive these sins we all lost souls stuck in the wind... ... so let us in, cause we cryin' at the gates of heaven I've been tryin' since the age of seven Only God knows, we gone make it I bet'cha homie If it wasn't for Kadafi I wouldn't have met'cha homie Try to...open your heart and feel me a minute If it wasn't for you, I would've been dead or in prison So I dedicate this song to you My whole success truly belongs to you And that's true...

And I humble myself I ain't wild no-more, but I don't leave the door without my foe-foe Homie guess who I ran to, Val Young to +Live And Die In L.A + She still singin' like she sung it when you was around Homie sometimes I wish that you was around Still puttin' it down.....come on
