Death Around The Corner Lyrics - 2pac

Child: Why you by the window?, what's wrong daddy? 

Mother: I know what's wrong with that crazy motherfucker 

He's just stand by the goddamn window 

with that fuckin' AK all day 

You don't work, you don't fuck, you don't 

you don't do a goddamn thing 

I see death around the corner, gotta stay high while I survive 

In the city where the skinny niggas die 

If they bury me, bury me as a G nigga, no need to worry 

I expect retaliation in a hurry 

I see death around the- corner, anyday 

Trying to keep it together, no one lives forever anyway 

Strugglin and strivin, my destiny's to die 

Keep my finger on the trigger, no mercy in my eyes 

In a ball of confusion, I think about my daddy 

Madder than a motherfucker, they never shoulda had me 

I guess I seen too many murders, the doctors can't help me 

Got me stressin' with my pistol in my sheets, it ain't healthy 

Am I paranoid? - Tell me the truth 

I'm out the window with my AK, ready to shoot 

Ran out of endo and my mind can't take the stress 

I'm out of breath

Make me wanna kill my damn self 

but I see death around the corner 

(When we were kids, belonging felt good) 

I see death around the corner 

(But having respect, that feels even better) 

I see death around the corner 

(When we were kids, belonging felt good) 

I see death around the corner 

(But having respect, that feels even better) 

I see death around the corner 

Photos 

the pressure's getting to me 

I no longer trust my homies 

them phonies tried to do me 

Smoking too much weed 

got me paranoid, stressed 

Pack a gat and my vest 

under my clothes when I dress 

Here's hopin I die the way I lived 

straight thuggin' 

Huggin' my trigger for all them niggas 

who was buggin' 

My homie told me once 

don't you trust them other suckers 

They fought like they your homies 

but they phony motherfuckers 

And even if I did die young, who cares 

All I ever got was mean mugs and cold stares 

I got homies in my head 

who done passed away screamin, please 

Young nigga, make Gs 

I can't give up, although I'm hopeless 

I think my mind's gone 

All I can do is get my grind on, death around the corner 

I was raised in the city, shitty 

Ever since I was an itty bitty kitty 

Drinkin' liquor out my momma's titty 

And smokin' weed was an everyday thang in my household 

And drinking liquor til' you out cold 

And tho' i'm gone now, nigga it's still on- Pow 

Bustin on them niggas til they gone 

How many more jealous ass bitches, comin for my riches 

Now I gotta stay suspicious when I bone 

Cause if I ain't sharp and heartless 

them bitches will start shit 

Excuse me, but this is where we part bitch 

No more game for free, please explain to me 

Why niggas trip bitch, who you came to see? 

Murderin' now but see me later man, as for my pops 

I got homies that will hunt you til you drop 

I hope the Lord will forgive me, I was a G 

And gettin high was a way of gettin free 

I see death around the corner 

This is for all the real mothafuckin niggas out there 

I know you ain't scared to die 

We all gotta go, ya know? 

A real motherfucker will pick the time he goes 

And make sure he handles his motherfuckin business 

Y'all niggas stop acting like pussies out there 

all right 

(Movie bites) 

I'm tired off getting ripped off by guys like that 

I want his family dead, I want his house burned to the ground 

I want to got there in the middle of the night 

I wanna piss on his head 

I want his family dead, I want his house burned to the ground 

I want to got there in the middle of the night 

I wanna piss on his head 

I want that sonova bitch dead, I want him dead 

I want him dead, I don't care
