[Intro: 2Pac]
sh**, I'm a changed man
Ay, turn the lights out
Big baller 2Pac up in this b**h
Y'know how we swing this sh**, look
[Verse 1: 2Pac]
By age sixteen I sold to dope fiends
Not yet a drug dealer, but I watched 'em closely
Until they noticed me
I got the feds wonderin' who broke the law
Far too inhibited for gun smoke, I broke his jaw
Words harder than a f**in' diamond
Mobile phone call to Simon
n***as trippin' homey, when we ridin'?
f** them slowly like Jodeci
And stick a needle in my eye if I don't live and die for M.O.B
And f** your homeboys n***a we can drop the guns
I hit your block and we can box for fun
n***a one on one, last to fall is a ballin' cat
It's d**h Row, why the f** you think we call it that?
So if you knew me in my past life
Don't act like we homeboys, ain't no love in the fast life
I switch gears on them jealous b**hes, who do you fear?
The gameplan of a changed man, so what I'm sayin' is
[Hook: Johnta Austin & 2Pac]
I changed plans but I'm still the same old rider
f**in' with a changed man
I slang a new dope to the world but the people still buy it
n***a you f**in' with a changed man
All my real thug n***as, go and get your hands up
You go and drink the Henn' up
(You f**in' with a changed man)
A changed man, you're dealin' with a changed man
[Verse 2: T.I.]
In drop top, the Glock co*ked
Got rocks in my socks Cops
Spot Watt n***as but hardly stop n***as
Not if they got n***as, doughboys and hot n***as
Who mighta shot n***as but only by skrilla
I'm for respect nowadays they expect me
To be in a Ferrari or the old SL
Or anything you see flashin past and can't catch
Dat's me, gauge on the Escalate back seat - don't creep
Oh what you think, T.I.P and them sweet? (Don't sleep)
Get you hit from your head to your feet (And you don't know me)
I'm fin' ta introduce you to the old me
You walk in, exploded and leave reload
You don't like a rugged n***a, f** you, blow me
But you will respect me or get it in your neckpiece G
No three n***as here are gonna let me be
Or get you inside there's codes to the streets n***a
[Hook: Johnta Austin & 2Pac]
I changed plans but I'm still the same old rider
You f**in' with a changed man
I slang a new dope to the world but the people still buy it
n***a you f**in' with a changed man
All my real thug n***as, go and get your hands up
You go and drink the Henn' up
(You f**in' with a changed man)
A changed man, you're dealin' with a changed man
You f**in' with a changed man
[Verse 3: 2Pac]
A n***a so cold when I flow, bow down to d**h Row
Three wheel motion, comin' through coastin'
Who's that n***a in the G-ride
Screamin' out M.O.B.! n***a we ride
I hit the charts like a stick-up kid
Number 1 in the nation
I f**ed the world, the Judge gave me probation
Faced with incarceration
Move tapes like it's big weight, slangin' to the whole nation
GIMME MINE, or I'm blastin' on every song
Murder my enemies, I'm mashin' until I'm gone
One love to my thug n***as
And f** a b**h, cause a true sister love n***as
Throw yo' hands in the air, close your eyes and hope
Never come against the ma** of smoke, on d**h Row
My adversaries BLEED
But f** 'em all 'til the talk cease
f**in' with a changed man
[Hook: Johnta Austin & 2Pac]
I changed plans but I'm still the same old rider
You f**in' with a changed man
I slang a new dope to the world but the people still buy it
n***a you f**in' with a changed man
All my real thug n***as, go and get your hands up
You go and drink the Henn' up
You f**in' with a changed man
A changed man, you're dealin' with a changed man
n***a you f**in' with a changed man
[Overlapped hook]
I changed plans but I'm still the same old rider
You f**in' with a changed man
I slang a new dope to the world but the people still buy it
n***a you f**in' with a changed man
All my real thug n***as, go and get your hands up
You go and drink the Henn' up
You f**in' with a changed man
A changed man, you're dealin' with a changed man
You f**in' with a changed man
[Collision: 2Pac]
E'rybody think they understand me
sh**, you n***as don't know me
Y'all know that n***a on the rap song
Y'all know that n***a in the movies
You don't know this n***a in 3-D
Real live right up against you in front of yo' face
sh**..
Westside, Outlaw Immortalz, hehehe
n***a, you f**in' with a changed man
Hahaha, you f**in' with a changed man
Hahaha, I ain't the same, you f**in' with a changed man
We ain't the same, you f**in' with a changed man
We ain't the same, f**in' with a changed man
Changed man
