2PacHolla if ya hear me
"Hard!" "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E
"Tellin you to hear it "
I'll be swingin like a one man, clan
"Hard!" "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E
2PacHolla if ya hear me
Scream, if ya feel mesee it clearly?
Repeat 2X
"Hard!" "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E
Cause in the alleys out in Cali I'ma tell ya
To my brothers on the block better stay strapped, black
To my homies on the block gettin dropped by cops
So we live like caged beasts
Wouldn't stop it if we could it's a hood thing
To the sell-outs, livin it up
"Tellin you to hear it "
Keepin my sound underground for ya
2PacHolla if ya hear me
In case ya can't see us while we burn the other week
Waitin for the day to let the rage free
"Tellin you to hear it "
2PacHolla if ya hear me
2PacHolla if ya hear me
2PacHolla if ya hear me
I'm givin but be thankful that you're livin, blessed
Representin, never give up, on a good thing
"Tellin you to hear it "
Keep your hands on ya gat, and now ya boys watch ya back
"Tellin you to hear it "
Now we got him in a smash, blast
And the punk police can't fade me, and maybe
Tellin all my brothers, get they strap on
Will I quit, will I quit?
Quayle, like you never brought my name up
"Hard!" "The rebel"
Bring the noise, to all my boyz
Mess with the best and the vest couldn't help ya
They fell me when they rollin in they fat jeeps
And now I'm like a major threat
"Tellin you to hear it "
"Tellin you to hear it "
I'm supposed to say peace, sing songs, and get capped on
Tell my young black males, blaze up
Hustlin 'til other brothers bubble -
Still me, till they kill me
Pump ya fists like this
"Hard!" "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E
"Hard!" "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E
I bring truth to the youth tear the roof off the whole school
Pump ya fists if ya feel me, holla if ya hear me
Until then, raise up
"Hard!" "The rebel"
"Hard!" "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E
"Hard!" "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E
But it's time for a new plan, BAM
Life's a mess don't stress, test
And accept no substitutes
Learn to survive in the nine-tre'
One way or another you'll be givin it up, huh
2PacYou're too near me, to see it clearly
Oh no, I won't turn the other cheek
And look for me in the struggle
2PacHolla if ya hear me
We can have peace someday G
See ya when I free ya if not when they shove me in
"Tellin you to hear it "
You're too near me -
But right now I got my mind set up
Cause it's time to make the payback fat
2PacHolla if ya hear me
This ain't just a rap song, a black song
Holla if ya hear me - PUMP PUMP if you're pissed
2PacHolla if ya hear me
2PacHolla if ya hear me
I love it when they fear me -
Whatever it takes to live and stand
And I'ma throw a change up
Know the real from the bustas and the decoys
How long will it last 'til the po' gettin mo' cash
"Hard!" "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E
I make rhyme pay, others make crime pay
Lookin down the barrel of my nine, get up
Here we go, turn it up, don't stop
"Tellin you to hear it "
"Tellin you to hear it "
Cause nobody else'll give a damn
"Hard!" "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E
2PacHolla if ya hear me
Cause I remind you of the things you were made to forget
And if ya hustle like a real G
Now my homies in the backstreets, the blackstreets
Much love to my brothers in the pen
Repeat 12X to fade
Repeat 4x
They claim that I'm violent, but still I keep
I guess cause I'm black born
"Tellin you to hear it "
Once again it's an all out scrap
I'm still around for ya
"Hard!" "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E
"Hard!" "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E
