Only Fear of Death lyrics

Pssst... psssssst... aiyyo

Are you afraid to die, or do you wanna live forever

Tell me, which one?

[Verse 1 : 2Pac]

They wanna bury me, I'm worried -- I'm losin my mind

Look down the barrel of my nine and my vision's blurry

Fallin to pieces, am I guilty? I pray to the Lord

But he ignores me unfortunately cause I'm guilty

Show me a miracle, I'm hopeless -- I'm chokin off

Marijuana smoke, with every toke it's like I'm losin focus

Fallin to sleep while I'm at service, when will I die?

Forever paranoid and nervous because I'm high

Don't mention funerals I'm stressin, and goin nutty

And reminiscin bout them niggas that murdered my buddy

I wonder when will I be happy, ain't nothin funny

Flashbacks of bustin caps, anything for money

Where am I goin I discovered, can't nothin save me

My next door neighbor's havin convo with undercovers

Put a surprise in the mailbox, hope she get it

Happy birthday bitch, you know you shouldn'ta did it

Everybody's dyin am I next, who can I trust?

Will they be G's, and they look at me before they bust?

Or will they kill me while I'm sleepin, two to the head

While I'm in bed, leakin blood on my satin sheets

Is there a heaven for a baller? I'm gettin suspicious

Of this bitch the line busy everytime I call her

Now she's tellin me to visit, who else is home?

I check the house before I bone, so we all alone

After I nut I hit the highway, see ya later

To all the players watch the fly way a nigga played her

The bitch is tellin all her homies -- that I can fuck her

Like no other, now them other bitches wanna bone me

I'm under pressure gettin drunk, somebody help me

I drink a fifth of Hennesey I don't think it's healthy

I see my enemies they creepin, don't make me blast

I watch the five-oh's roll, the motherfuckers pass

By me like they know me, smilin as they laugh

I put up my middle finger, then I dash

Niggas don't like me cause I'm Thuggin, and every day

I'm a hustler lookin to get paid

They wanna bury me, I'm worried -- no need to lie

I pray to God I don't scream when it's time to fry

Nowhere to rest I'm losin homies, ain't that a bitch

When I was rich I had clout, now a nigga's lonely

I put the pistol to my head, and say a prayer

I see visions of me dead, Lord are you there?

Then tell me am I lost cause I'm lonely

I thought I had friends but in the end a nigga dies lonely

Nowhere to run I'm in terror, and no one cares

A closed casket at my funeral and no one's there

Is there a future for a killer? I change my ways

But still that don't promise me the next day

So I stay Thuggin with a passion, forever blastin

I'm bustin on these motherfuckers in my madness

They wonder if I'm hellbound... well Hell

Can't be worse than this, cause I'm in Hell now

Don't make me hurt you I don't want to, but I will

Seen motherfuckers killed over phone bills

Never will I die, I'll be back

Reincarnated as a motherfuckin mack

Eleven, cause in heaven there's no shortage on G's

I'm tellin you now, you motherfuckers don't know me
