2Pac - Never Had a Friend Like Me

Never
You ain't never had a friend like me
Believe that
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me

See at night, I watch the sky
I take another breath
I smoke my Newport to the butt
Like it's the last motherfucker left
Just me and you, evadin' enemies
Let you get my last shot of Hennessy
Ain't never had a friend like me
Remember memories so vividly
Was once a little dust-kicker now becomes a G
Who can I call when they all fail?
Collect calls to my dogs from the county jail
Sending me mail
Heard the block's in the same shape
Ain't nothin' changed
Niggas slangin' at the same place
The same faces
Suppose to always hate our foes
This lifestyle is forever
Watch the game unfold
Sheddin' crocodile tears, just got life-plus
And you wonder if these white judges like us
Just stay strong, we'll appeal, nigga, you'll be free
Down with ya to the very end
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me

I'm down for you, so ride with me
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
Nobody knows where we'll be
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
I'm down for you, so ride with me
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
Nobody knows where we'll be
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me

How can I be blamed? Forgive me, Lord, I'm insane
In search of fame, won't hurt to change
Followin' the foot steps of past dealers
Equipped with ski masks, no witness as we blast squealers
Maybe now they feel us in this act of war
More casualties, no survivors
Any man that defy us, quickly dies, 'cause we riders
In my quest for chips
We wear vests, equipped with automatic fire
We reply when my enemies trip
Me and you against the nation
Whisperin' while we conversatin'
'Cause niggas died over information
How much more can we take?
Expect us all to wait
The world ain't ready for us yet so let's make Clinton pay
They never wanted us to make it
Everything that we possess
We had to fight and take it
I think the president is smokin' weed, bumpin' this beat
Makin' a livin' out my misery
'Til he got a friend like me

I'm down for you, so ride with me
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
Nobody knows where we'll be
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
I'm down for you, so ride with me
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
Nobody knows, where we'll be
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me

Promise to visit
I know it's rough in your cell
Receivin' mail to the county jail
This is hell
When I was younger, I could picture livin' in luxury
So how the fuck did I end up in prison?
Fuckin' snitches
They got me crossed by my own side
I found him by his self
No drama, he alone died, nobody cried
Should have never testified
You got my nigga twenty-five
So now I sacrifice your life
Helped to separate me and my dog
Broken ties, why the fuck should I let you live
When I'm dead inside?
Rapid fire, my delivery
I'm bustin' at they (your) whole crew
Nigga, remember me
Hit up my Outlawz set
Then throw my pistol in the ocean
Ditch my ski mask
And get to straight coastin'
It's visitin' day at San Quinton
Always there to see your closest road dog
'Cause you ain't ever had a friend like me

I'm down for you, so ride with me
My enemies, your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
Nobody knows where we'll be
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
I'm down for you, so ride with me
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
Nobody knows where we'll be
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
I'm down for you, so ride with me
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
Nobody knows where we'll be
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me

Come after us, best be complete
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
Nobody knows where we'll be
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
Come after us, best be complete
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
Nobody knows where we'll be
My enemies your enemies
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me

Right
You ain't ever had a friend like me
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
You ain't ever had a friend like me
'Cause you ain't never had a friend like me
