Nothing To Lose Lyrics - R U Still Down? (remember Me) - 2pac

The only way to change me is let me blow my brains out 

Stuck in the middle of the game to get the pain out 

Pray to my God everyday but he don't listen 

The poverty bothers me 

But mama's working wonders in the kitchen 

Listen I can hear her crying in the bedroom 

Praying for money we never think would she be dead soon 

Am I wrong for wishing I was somewhere else? 

I'm 13 can't feed myself 

Can I blame daddy 'cause he left me 

Wish he would've helped me too much like him 'til my mama don't love me 

On my own at a early age gettin' paid 

And I'm strapped so I'll never be afraid 

Where did I go astray? I'm hanging in the back streets 

Running with G's and dope fiends will they jack me? 

Can't turn back my eyes on the prize 

I got nothing to lose 

Everybody gotta die, say good-bye to the bad guy 

That one you fucked when you passed by 

Buck buck from a Glock, let the glass fly 

Do or Die walk a mile in my shoes 

And you'd be crazy too, with nothing to lose

I got raw when I came to Cali

I thank the Lord for my many blessings 

Though I'm stressin' keep a vest for protection 

From the barrel of the Smith & Wesson 

And all my niggas in the pen', here we go again 

Ain't nothing separating us from a Mac-10 

Born in the ghetto as a hustler older 

Straight soldier bucking at them busters 

No matter how you try niggas never die 

We just retaliate with hate, then we multiply 

See me striking down the block hittin' corners 

Mobbin' like a motherfucker livin' like I wanna 

Ain't no stoppin' at the red lights I'm sideways 

Thug Life motherfucker crime pays 

Let the cops put they lights on 

Chase me nigga, zig-zaggin' through the freeway 

Race me nigga, in a high speed chase with the law 

The realest motherfucker that you ever saw 

I'm livin' raw 'til they bury me, don't worry me 

I'm high livin' like I ain't afraid to die 

And you could walk a mile in my shoes 

And you'd be crazy too, with nothing to lose 

I got raw when I came to Cali 

I got nothing to lose 

That's why I got gang-related rhymes (Got nothing to lose) 

I got raw when I came to Cali 

I got nothing to lose 

That's why I got gang-related rhymes (Got nothing to lose) 

I got raw when I came to Cali 

And nothing to lose... 

That's why I got gang-related rhymes (Nothing to lose) 

I got raw when I came to Cali (Nothing to lose) 

That's why I got gang-related rhymes 

Ain't no escape from a deadly fate 

And everyday there's a million black bodies put away 

I'm startin' to lose hope 

It seems everybody's on dope 

Mama told me to leave 'cause she was broke 

Sometimes I choke on the indo 

Peepin' out the window alone on my own, I'm a criminal 

Got no love from the household 

I'm out cold in the streets give me motherfucking peace 

I got nothing to lose, and something to prove 

What do I do livin Thug Life nigga stay true 

I wonder when they kill me 

Is there a Heaven for a real G? 

Lord forgive me if you feel me? 

'Cause all my life I was dirt broke 

With no hope little skinny motherfucker wantin' dough 

I hated cutting suckers with my razor blade 

But everyday it's a struggle to get major paid 

Anyway it's so hard on a nigga in this city 

No pity and ain't no love for the scrubs that be buyin dimes 

If you could walk a mile in my shoes 

You'd be crazy too, with nothing to lose 

I got raw when I came to Cali 

Got nothing to lose 

That's why I got gang-related rhymes (Got nothing to lose) 

I got raw when I came to Cali 

Got nothing to lose 

That's why I got gang-related rhymes (Livin' with nothing to lose) 

I got raw when I came to Cali 

Yeah... 

That's why I got gang-related rhymes (Got nothing to lose) 

I got raw when I came to Cali 

You know... 

That's why I got gang-related rhymes 

They wonder what type nigga be a, Thug Life nigga 

We be the craziest... 

Muthafucka! 

You know! 

They wonder what type nigga be a Thug Life nigga 

We be the craziest!
