Mama raised a hellraiser why cry, That's just life in the ghetto, do or die.

When you were born the world was smiling, and you cry, because living a life so that you are dying smiled, cried and the world.

I know death follows me, but I murder him first.

You reached your level, you don't want any more. We asked ten years ago, we were askin' with the Panthers, we were askin' in the Civil Rights Movement. Now those who were askin' are all dead or in jail, wo what are we gonna do? And we shouldn't be angry!?

Will my enimies flee when they see me? Belive me, even thugz gotta learn to take it easy!

My mother taught me three things, respect, knowledge-search for knowledge, it's an eternal journey. That's like my hair-cut, the line, 360 degrees, find knowledge always. And she taught me to not be quiet, if there's something on my mind speak it. But also to listen.

Don't look back unless it's a good view.
