I ain't got no motherfuckin friends
That's why I fucked yo' bitch, you fat motherfucker

Bad Boy killers
(take money) You know who the realest is niggaz
(take money) We bring it to you
(take money)

First off, fuck your bitch and the click you claim
Westside when we ride come equipped with game
You claim to be a player but I fucked your wife
We bust on Bad Boy niggaz fucked for life
Plus Puffy tryin ta see me weak hearts I rip
Biggie Smalls and Junior M.A.F.I.A. some mark-ass bitches
We keep on comin while we runnin for yo' jewels
Steady gunnin, keep on bustin at them fools, you know the rules
Lil' Ceaser, go ask ya homie how I leave ya
Cut your young ass up, leave you in pieces, now be deceased
Lil' Kim, don't fuck around with real G's
Quick to snatch yo' ugly ass off the streets, so fuck peace
I let them niggaz know it's on for life
So let the Westside ride tonight - hahahah
Bad Boy murdered on wax and killed
Fuck wit' me and get yo' caps peeled, you know ... see ...

Grab ya glocks, when you see Tupac
Call the cops, when you see Tupac, uhh
Who shot me, but ya punks didn't finish
Now ya bout to feel the wrath of a menace
NIGGA, I hit em' up...

Check this out, you motherfuckers know what time it is
I don't even know why I'm on this track
Y'all niggaz ain't even on my level
I'ma let my little homies ride on you
bitch made-ass bad boy bitches -- deal with it!!

Get out the way yo, get out the way yo
Biggie Smalls just got dropped
Little Moo, pass the mac, and let me hit him in his back
Frank White need to get spanked right, for settin traps
Little accident murderers, and I ain't never heard-a ya
Poisinous gats attack when I'm servin ya
Spank ya shank ya whole style when I gank
Guard your rank, cause I'ma slam your ass in the paint
Puffy weaker than the fuckin block I'm runnin through nigga
And I'm smokin Junior M.A.F.I.A. in front of you nigga
With the ready power tuckin my Guess under my Eddie Bauer
Ya clout petty sour, I get packages every hour to hit 'em up

Grab ya glocks, when you see Tupac
Call the cops, when you see Tupac, uhh
Who shot me, but ya punks didn't finish
Now ya bout to feel the wrath of a menace
NIGGA, I hit em' up...

Peep how we do it, keep it real, it's penitentiary steel
this ain't no freestyle battle, all you niggaz gettin killed
with ya mouths open
Tryin to come up offa me, you in the clouds hopin
Smokin dope it's like a sherm high niggaz think they learned to fly
But they burn motherfucker, you deserve to die
Talkin bout you gettin money but it's funny to me
All you niggaz livin bummy why you fuckin with me?
I'm a self made millionare
Thug Livin out a prison, pistols in the air, haha
Biggie, remember when I used to let you sleep on the couch
and beg a bitch to let you sleep in the house, hah
Now its all about Versacci, you copied my style
Five shots couldn't drop me, I took it and smiled
Now I'm bout to set the record straight, with my AK
I'm still the thug that you love to hate
Motherfucker, I hit 'em up

I'm from N-E-W Jerz, where plenty murders occurs
No points in common, we bringin drama to all you herbs
Knuckle check the scenario, Lil' Cease
I bring you fake G's to your knees, coppin pleas you Degenario
Lil Kim, is you coked up, or doped up?
Get ya lil' Jr. Whopper click smoked up, what the fuck
is you STUPID?! I take money, crash and mash through Brooklyn
with my click lootin, shootin and pollutin ya block
with 15 shots cock glock to your knot
Outlaw mafia click movin up another notch
And your box top spots get mopped and dropped
and all your fake-ass East coast props brainstormed and locked

Youse a, beat biter, a Pac style taker
I'll tell you to ya face you ain't shit but a faker
Softer than Alize with a chaser
Bout to get murdered for the paper
Edi Amin approach the scene of the caper, like a loc
With Lil' Ceaser in a choke, huh totin smoke
We ain't no motherfuckin joke Thug Life niggaz better be knowin
We approchin, in the wide open, guns smokin
No need for hopin it's a battle lost, I got 'em crossed
As soon as the funk was poppin off, nigga I hit 'em up

Now you tell me who won? I see them, they run
Hehehehe, they don't wanna see us
Whole Junior M.A.F.I.A. click dressin up tryin to be us
How the fuck they gon' be the mob when we always on our job
We millionaires, killin ain't fair but somebody gotta do it
Oh yeah, Mobb Deep, you wanna fuck with us?
You little young-ass motherfuckers
Don't one of you niggaz got sickle cell or somethin?
You fuckin with me nigga you fuck around
and have a seizure or a heart-attack
You better back the fuck up, 'fore you get smacked the fuck up
That's how we do it on our side
Any of you niggaz from New York that wanna bring it bring it
But we ain't singin, we bringin drama
Fuck you and your motherfuckin mama
We gon' kill all you motherfuckers
Now when I came out I told you it was just about Biggie
Then everybody had to open they mouth with a motherfuckin opinion
Well this how we gon' do this
Fuck Mobb Deep, Fuck Biggie, Fuck Bad Boy as a staff record label
and as a motherfuckin crew
And if you wanna be down with Bad Boy; then fuck you too
Chino XL, fuck you too
All you motherfuckers, fuck you too

Alla y'all motherfuckers, fuck you die slow motherfucker
My fo'-fo' make sure all y'all kids don't grow

    General Comment:FOR ONE........RAPPERS DONT OWN THE STREETS CONSIDERING MOST OF THEM END UP DEAD OR IN JAIL/PRISON. NUMBER TWO: IF YOUR A COCKY,PRIDEFUL DRUG ADDICT WITH HOMICIDAL TENDENCIES OR ROLL WITH CRIPS OR BLOODS THE AVERAGE PERSON WOULDNT MISS THEM. MOST OF THE PEOPLE WHO CARE ABOUT WHAT HE SAID WAS THE BLACK COMMUNITY AND WHOEVER HE CONVINCED THAT MORE WAR IS NEEDED TO SURVIVE. NUMBER THREE: I HAVE MET GUN TOTING GANG BANGERS THAT ALL THEY TALK ABOUT IS OPPRESSION LIKE SLAVERY IS STILL GOING ON. NUMBER FOUR: IVE BEEN CALLED CRACKER WITH MEAN WHIP CRACKER FROM SLAVERY AND I WASNT THERE TO BE A PART OF THAT AND IM JEWISH LOL. NUMBER FIVE: IF YOU PEOPLE HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT HIS VIOLENT LYRICS WERE LEADING TO SOME SORT OF "PEACE TREATY" YOUR A LOST INDIVIDUAL..........SHOULD I KEEP GOING?? I GOT INTO RAP BEFORE AND ALL THOSE COCKY FUCKS COMPLAIN ABOUT IS THE TRIUMPH FROM A BROKEN HOME OR CITY. BOO FUCKIN HOO.

    General Comment:I wonder if 2Pac really did sleep with Faith Evans. Only two people know for sure, of which one is dead and the other has a strong incentive to lie if it did happen.

    General Comment:I respect the dead, and I love New York, so I'm not trying to disrespect anyone, but let's be honest, the only reason why Biggie is so famous and regarded as one of the greatest rappers of all time is because he's dead. He came out with 2 CDs and about 6 singles, that's hardly a legend.

    General Comment:Tupac is my one of my favorite rappers, of course, but i got pissed when he made this song because BECAUSE OF THIS MOTHERFUCKING SONG, Pac asked for death, This song is the reason people killed him, when they thought that biggie killed tupac they killed biggie, that's it. This song fucked up everything. I fucking hate it. Suicide of your career and your life.

    General Comment:Pac was go damn paranoid that Biggie set him up, he just turned into a maniac, it's awesome to hear yo.

    Much love to Tupac, but I can understand why people would want to hate him and beef with him after this. Lol he sounds like a madman.

    General Comment:This song is just amazing. It has to be the best song ive ever heard to just release that anger and revenge emotion. Everytime I hear that outro man i get goosebumps. Im a classic rock/rock kind of guy but I can stand some rap and I like old school hip-hop. This song just has such powerful emotion it. I get a tingle in my brain when I hear him scream the outro out with such feeling....man...
