Say he wanna be

Shorty's gonna be a Thug

Said he wanna be

One day he's gonna be

Said he's wanna be

Shorty's gonna be a Thug

Said he's gonna be

One day he gonna be

Say he wanna be

Shorty's gonna be a Thug

Said he gonna be

One day he's gonna be

Said he wanna be

Shorty's gonna be a Thug

He was a nice middle class nigga

But nobody knew the evil he'd do

When he got a little bigger

Get off the final blaze

While puffing on a Newport

plottin' on a another way to catch a case

Was only sixteen, yet convicted as a felon

With a bunch of old niggas

But you the only one who ain't telling

I tell you it's a cold world, stay in school

You tell me its a man's world, play the rules

And fade fools, 'n break rules until we major

Blaze up, getting with hoes through my pager

Was raised up, commencing to money makin' tactics

It's getting drastic, niggas got automatics

My fingers on the trigga, Tell the lord

To make way for another straight Thug Nigga

I'm sitting getting buzzed, looking for some luv

from the homies, cuz shorty wanna be a Thug

Chorus

Said he gonna be

Say he gonna be

One day he's gonna be

Shorty's gonna be a Thug

Said he gonna be

One day he gonna be

Say he wanna be

Shorty's gonna be a Thug

Said he wanna be

One day he gonna be

Say he wanna be

Shorty's gonna be a Thug

Straight from the Hall to the Penn

Adolescent nigga scaling weight

and standing Six feet Ten

He carried weight like a Mack truck

Gonna bust on some playa haters

if the mutha fuckas act tuff

Then thats when the lethal weapon with the razor

This little nigga smoking weed and getting blazed
up

No one could figure, when the guns blast pull the
trigga

Could take the life of a young nigga guns bigger

No mother and father, you see, the niggas all
alone

Old timers my role model, the war zone

Released with this game 'til its a part of me

My heart don't beat no fear and it ain't hard to
see

The future is looking dim

I'm trying to make a profit out of living in this
sin

I'm in the dark getting buzzed, looking for some
love

out with the homies, cuz shorty wanna be a Thug

Chorus

Said he gonna be

Say he gonna be

One day he gonna be

Shorty's gonna be a Thug

Said he gonna be

One day he gonna be

Say he wanna be

Shorty's gonna be a Thug

Said he wanna be

One day he gonna be

Say he wanna be

Shorty's gonna be a Thug

Shorty gonna be a thug

(Tupac Talking)

You little bad ass nigga, to the young niggas

You only get three mistakes, then thats life,

big baby (niggas craaazy)

Damn, you ain't but sixteen nigga?

Sixteen?!?!

That's a bad muthafucker
