Куплет 1 — 2Pac

Check the story, born in New York, fire lit in Baltimore,

Moved to Cali, where the sharks lie on the marble floor.

Started digital, then the truth got raw,

"Brenda's Got a Baby", "Keep Ya Head Up", fuck the law.

I was prophetic, man, I saw the Illuminati in the mix,

While the radio was playin' MC Hammer's baggy tricks.

Got shot five times, jumped up, did the session for the picture,

Makaveli on the contract, Death Row's new conductor.

I was ridin' shotgun, writin' verses on the dash,

While Dre was mixin' up the chronic, 'bout to make a million cash.

We was buildin' empires, hand in hand, black and white,

Two sides of the same coin, shinin' in the neon light.

But the love turned to hatred, the game turned to war,

Suge Knight at the wheel, but the devil's at the door.

Куплет 2 — Eminem

Yo!

Hold up, Pac! September 'ninety-six! The Mike Tyson fight in Vegas!
