[00:03.87]Sometimes because of jealousy and the intent to demise
[00:06.68]Certain factions have to be forbidden or destroyed
[00:09.90]Fire has to be sent to the poisoned forest
[00:13.03]With the root of fresh trees planted elsewhere
[00:16.11]Only then will you obtain a wilderness
[00:19.18]That cannot be penetrated, petrified - family tree
[00:23.09]See what started as a family forest got cut
[00:25.89]To a family tree with the limbs and the leaves
[00:28.52]Looking' at the world for answers; the world points to the sun
[00:31.70]And the sun says the answers in me
[00:33.70]So I search through the darkness, can't find the key
[00:36.42]So we locked in the land of the lost; Lord, please
[00:39.01]Tomorrow ain't promised to you nor me
[00:41.51]So now we choose the roots, so we can plant new trees
[00:44.14]Many minds always meet with pens and sheets
[00:46.67]Close my eyes, think what next on my rhymes, see this face in ink
[00:49.58]I'm havin' visions of wisdom, dreamin' 'bout my own ending
[00:53.06]Am I seein' death as freedom and livin' as prison
[00:55.21]My son didn't have a daddy to shape him
[00:57.19]So God bless him with a daddy to save him, Yeah, I raise him
[01:00.15]And pay some attention, he talked and he listened
[01:02.50]To reach him and teach him fefore I'm gone from existence
[01:05.21]Teach him 'bout the foes, the ho's and all opponents
[01:07.76]Those that always talk 'bout love but never showed it
[01:10.34]Those who had the chances to stand and always blowed it
[01:12.98]Those that set you up by the hour to steal your moment
[01:15.72]Pac the word is you ain't there so fuck the rumor
[01:18.45]I'll get a pound of that shit from Bermuda and meet you in Cuba
[01:21.04]Fucked up on Larusa no doubt, I know the locale
[01:23.63]If they gotta born you, I'm gonna mourn you 'til I join you
[01:26.30]See what started as a family forest got cut

[01:46.85]Uhh, and now I know I got some family
[01:49.29]Who missed me from the heart, forever we're apart
[01:52.20]Just because I'm nothin' and you abuse me and use me
[01:54.64]Now you wanna try to go bruise me
[01:56.44]And even though maybe we'll end up farther than it once was
[01:59.88]I know family don't always mean that they blood, cause
[02:02.81]Some people just don't give a nigga what
[02:04.16]Some people tried to use my name so all the fat we had to cut
[02:08.12]And I'm still walking with my six amp strut
[02:10.07]Urban eyes see through camouflage and now I know who's butt
[02:12.94]So when I sent you tried to play me, all of a sudden now I'm shady
[02:15.63]Maybe deep down in my heart, never trust you from the start
[02:18.39]Never hoped you'd be my homie, don't come 'round my way
[02:20.63]And if we never speak again, it's got to be that way
[02:23.15]This millennium, we'll be spankin' your heiny

[02:49.54]Life doesn't end when the sweat dries
[02:52.20]A time when a nickle cost a dollar, when you rise, your chest dies
[02:55.75]My dynasty many fear it 'cos I'm near it
[02:57.29]Ancient Egyptian scriptures fitted in through hyroglyphics
[03:00.15]Motherfuckers try to touch my mental state
