Brian “Big Ba**” Gardner - Only God Can Judge Me lyrics

[Intro: 2Pac] Only God can judge me (that right?) Only God can judge me now Nobody else (nobody else) All you other motherf**ers get out my business (really) Only God can judge me now [Verse 1: 2Pac] Perhaps I was blind to the facts, stabbed in the back I couldn't trust my own homies, just a bunch of dirty rats Will I succeed? Paranoid from the weed And hocus pocus, I try to focus, but I can't see And in my mind I'm a blind man doin' time Look to my future, ‘cause my past is all behind me Is it a crime to fight for what is mine? Everybody's dyin', tell me what's the use of tryin' I've been trapped since birth, cautious ‘cause I'm cursed And fantasies of my family in a hearse And they say it's the White man I should fear But it's my own kind doin' all the k**in' here I can't lie, ain't no love for the other side Jealousy inside, make 'em wish I died Oh my Lord, tell me what I'm livin' for Everybody's droppin', got me knockin' on Heaven's door And all my memories of seein' brothers bleed And everybody grieves, but still nobody sees Recollect your thoughts, don't get caught up in the mix ‘Cause the media is full of dirty tricks [Hook: 2Pac] Only God can judge me Only God can judge me, only God Only God can judge me Only God can judge me Only God can judge me, only God Only God can judge me now Only God can judge me, only God Only God can judge me Only God can judge me, only God Only God can judge me [Flatline] [Verse 2: 2Pac] I hear the doctor standin' over me, screamin' I can make it Got a body full of bullet holes, layin' here naked Still I can't breathe, something's evil in my IV ‘Cause everytime I breathe I think they k**in' me I'm havin' nightmares, homicidal fantasies I wake up stranglin', tangled in my bed sheets I call the nurse ‘cause it hurts to reminisce How did it come to this? I wish they didn't miss Somebody help me, tell me where to go from here ‘Cause even thugs cry, but do the Lord care? Try to remember, but it hurts I'm walkin' through the cemetery, talkin' to the dirt I'd rather die like a man than live like a coward There's a ghetto up in Heaven and it's ours "Black Power!" is what we scream As we dream in a paranoid state And our fate is a lifetime of hate Dear Mama, can you save me? And f** peace ‘Cause the streets got our babies, we gotta eat No more hesitation, each and every black male's trapped And they wonder why we suicidal running 'round strapped Mr. Police, please try to see That there's a million motherf**ers stressin' just like me [Hook] Only God can judge me Only God can judge me, only God Only God can judge me Only God can judge me Only God can judge me, only God Only God can judge me Only God can judge me Only God can judge me, only God Only God can judge me Only God can judge me now [Interlude: 2Pac] That which does not k** me can only make me stronger That's for real And I don't see why everybody feel as though That they gotta tell me how to live my life You know? Let me live, baby, let me live [Verse 3: Rappin' 4-Tay] Pac, I feel ya, keep servin' it on the reala For instance, say a playa hatin' mark is out to k** ya Would you be wrong for buckin' a n***a to the pavement? He gon' get me first, if I don't get him fool start prayin' Ain't no such thing as self-defense in the court of law So judge us when we get to where we're goin wearin' a cross That's real, got him, lurked him, crept the f** up on him Sold a half a million tapes, now everybody want him After talkin' behind my back like a b**h would Tellin' them n***as, "You can fade him," punk I wish you would It be them same motherf**ers in your face That'll rush up in your place to get your safe Knowin' you on that paper chase Gra**, gla**, big screen and leather couch My new sh** is so fetti, already sold a ki or ounce b**h, remember 2Pac and 4-Tay Them same two brothers dodgin' bullets representin' the Bay Pac, when you was locked down That's when I'll be around Start climbin' up the charts, so sick, but they tried to clown That's why they ride the bandwagon Still be draggin' sellin' lies Don't think I don't see you haters, I know y'all in disguise [2Pac] Guess you figure you know me, ‘cause I'm a thug That love to hit the late night club drink and buzzed Been livin' lavish like a player all day Now I'm bout to floss 'em off, player sh** with 4-Tay [Hook] Only God can judge me Only God can judge me, only God Only God can judge me Only God can judge me Only God can judge me, only God Only God can judge me Only God can judge me, only God Only God can judge me Only God can judge me Only God can judge me, only God Only God can judge me now [Outro: 2Pac & Rappin 4-Tay] Only God, mane That right?

Man, look here, man My only fear of d**h Is comin' back to this b**h reincarnated, man That's for the homie mental Hehehehe We up out
