Staring Through My Rearview - 2Pac & Outlawz

Starin' at the world through my rearview
Just lookin' back at the world from another level, you know what I mean?
Just staring

Multiple - fill the block, the fun stops
- Is callin' cops, people -, nobody stop
I wonder when the world stopped carin'
Last night, two kids - while the whole block starin'

I will never understand this society
First they try to murder me, then they lie to me, product of a dying breed
All my homies tryin' -
Now the little baby's crazed, raised off Hennessy

Tell me, will my enemies flee when they see me?
Believe me, even thugs gotta learn to take it easy
Listen, through the intermissions, search your heart for a plan
We turning bad boys to grown men

It's on again, I give a holla to my - in the darkest corners
Roll a perfect -, and let me - it for ya
One love from a thug - rollin' with a posse full of paranoid -
To the end, my friend

I'm seein' nothin' but my dreams coming true
While I'm starin' at the world through my rearview
See, I'm seein' nothin' but my dreams coming true
While I'm starin' at the world through my rearview

They got me staring at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, He can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast 'cause it's time to die
Getting -, watching time fly, 'cause all my -

Staring at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, He can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast 'cause it's time to die
We getting -, watching time fly, all my -

Now you see 'em, now you don't
Some - be here for the moment, and then they gone, what happened to 'em?
Well, let's see, it seems to be a mystery
But all I know, I'll never let the money get to me

Stay down like the truest
Thug life until I check out of this -, I thought you knew this
Who is gonna catch me when I fall, or even care to?
While you thinking I see you lost up in my rearview

Half you is down with them Outlawz
Outcast, left far, I feel like southpaws
But still we keep mashing 'til our dreams come through
Staring at the world through my rearview

Now, I was raised as a young black male
In order to get paid, forced to make - sales
Caught a -, so they sent me to these overpacked jails
In the cell, counting days in this living black hell, do you feel me?

Keys to ignition, use at your discretion
Roll with a - for protection
- Take me in the section from years of chin checking
Turn to Smith -

Heavenly Father, I'm a soulja
I'm getting hotter 'cause the world's getting colder, baby, let me hold ya
Talk to my - like they fly, -
All you bustas best to run, look at my -

Now I know the answers to the question, do dreams come true?
Still staring at the world through my rearview
I said now I know the answers, do dreams come true?
Staring at the world through my rearview

They got me staring at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, He can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast 'cause it's time to die
Getting -, watching time fly and all my -

Staring at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, He can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast 'cause it's time to die
Getting -, watchin' time fly, - could die

Back in the days, we hustled for sneakers and beepers
- 'Cause fools hittin' up blocks with street sweepers
Bless myself for knowing rules to these streets, somethin' I learned in school
On some Million Man March - for the peace, true that

Only one life to lead, a fast life of greed
Criminally addicted, infested since the seed
We all die, breed, bleed like humans
Towns run by young -, Outlawz and truants

- Deep, turn 18, burn my will when I go
Burn my body with my - or choosin' my dough
So while you reminiscing all nights out with the crew
- For me too while starin' through your rearview

Haha, you ain't knowin' what we mean by starin' through the rearview
So since you ain't knowin' what we mean let me bring a better understanding
The world, the world is behind us
- Get an understanding on the game
And what the levels and the rules of the game is
Then the world ain't no trick no more, the world is a game to be played

So now we looking at the world, from like behind us
- Know what we gotta do, we just gotta put our mind to it and do it
It's all about the papers, money rule the world
- Make the world go round
Real - do they wanna do, - do what they can't

Staring at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, He can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast 'cause it's time to die
Getting -, watching time fly, ya know

Staring at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, He can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast 'cause it's time to die
Getting -, watching time fly and we'll be

Staring at the world through my rearview
Scream to God, He can't hear you
Heart beating fast, time to die
Watching time fly

Staring at the world through my rearview
Scream to God, He can't hear you
Heart beating fast, time to die
Getting -, watching time fly
