2Pac:



There's gonna' be some stuff that your gonna' see

That's gonna' make it hard to smile in the future

(No Doubt)

But whatever you see, through all the rain and pain

You gotta keep a sense of humor

Gotta be able to smile through all this bullshit

Remember that

Just keep ya head up



Our lifesytles be close caption

Addicted to fatal attraction

Pictures and actions be played back

In the mist of mashin'

No fairytales for this young black male

Some see me stranded in this land of Hell

Jail and crack cells

???? culture

Or the repercussion

While bustin' on back-stabbing vultures

Sellin' my soul

For material wishes

Fast cars and bitches

Wishin' I live my life a legend

Immortalized in pictures

Why shed tears, save your sympathy

My childhood years

Was spend burying my peers in the cemetary

Here's a message to the newborns

Waiting to breath:

"If you believe

you can achieve, just look at me"

Against all odds

Though life is hard, we carry on

Living in the projects

Broke with no lights on

To all the G's that follow me

Protect your essence

Born with less but your still precious

Just smile for me now



Chours:

Ohhh Won't you smile for me

(2Pac: Just smile for me now)

Ohhh Won't you smile for me

(Nigga you black, smile for me now)

Ohhh Won't you smile for me

(You ain't got nothin' to worry about)

(Smile for me now)

Ohhh Won't you smile for me

(and the next generation)



Scarface:



Now as I open up my story

With the blaze of your blunt

So you can picture thoughts slowly

Upon phrases I
