2pac - r u still down? (og) lyrics

[verse 1: 2pac]
i never had a father figure
i was raised by the thugs and the drug dealers
– that’s why i love n-ggas !
until they place me in my casket, guess i’ll be a hopeless b-st-rd
gettin’ high in the back, plastered
can’t n0body make a way for me – times is hard
on a n-gga, mama pray for me
i’m smokin’ weed for the stress and drinkin’ for the pain
from the strain on the young brothers brain
ain’t a motherf-cking thing to do, but hang and stay true
thugs get lonely too..
i’m drinking 22’s of brew, till i’m tipsy
and i ain’t going out throwing up my middle finger, miss me ?
tryna get my hands on the cash
how long will it last, will it last a little longer if i blast ?
and trust me, i’ll probably be the last to preach
cause ain’t no hope for the future if they asking me
and what my poppa never told me –
you see i learned from the kindness of strangers and homies
so now i can’t turn back, time to make it through
they wanna ban me, while tryna feed my family
but all the homies in the hood told me: n-gga it’s all good..
and m-th-f-ck hollywood !
for tryna shut a real n-gga down, stayin’ true to the game
f-ck the fame, i still won’t change
r u still down ?

[chorus: natasha walker & 2pac]
r u still down?
(tell me – r u still down ?)
(repeat 4x)

[verse 2: 2pac]
now up and at em it’s on, i was raised to be strong
and mama told me be a thug since the day i was born
i came up out the gutter never changed my style
got for real about my papers, cause the game was wild
and the fame was a plot to try to change me-ee
and what’s strange is n0body knew my name ‘fore it came
now the whole world is calling me a k!ller
and all i ever did – was try to reach the kids with the real
all the time i was ballin’, never heard my friends callin’
couldn’t stop myself from fallin’, i’m all in
sh-t’s gettin’ sleazy, believe me
best to take what ya need, but don’t be greedy
cause in my mind i see sunshine, i thought
i didn’t have to run, now i’m duckin’ from the gun yellin’: one time-ee
take your time to feel my record, and if you did
chill a second, my blind method, will still wreck it
my young homies stay strong
i wonder if they’ll listen to a n-gga when he gone ?
r u still down ?

[chorus]

[verse 3: 2pac]
i’m gettin’ high, so a n-gga think he touch the sky
turn tough inside, in the rush to die
livin’ life as a thug time to face the truth
what’s goin’ on with the wasted youth ?
please god, come and.. save me
had to work with what ya gave me
they got a n-gga goin’ crazy
i can’t read the signs.. i’m blind
but a n-gga know he need his nine, cause times
they ain’t what they used to be
ain’t a penitentiary built..
big enough for me and my n-ggas on the streets
man listen ! cause these ain’t the old days
ain’t no way i’mma bustin my -ss and gettin no pay
it seems i can’t find my focus, and homey i ain’t paranoid
i seen the future and it’s hopeless
lord knows, its hard on a young scrub
it seems i had less problems when i slung drugs
but since i’m lacin young brothers with the game
wanna see me locked in chains and tryin’ to dirty up my name
and them same motherf-ckers that was callin’ me
will be the first to turn their backs, when i’m fallin’, see ?
i should have seen it from the jump, but now it’s clear
one n-gga got the town in fear
r u still down ?

[outro]
all i want to know – r u still down ?
tell me – r u still down ?

-multiple times-
tell me – r u still down?
r u still down ?
