(feat. Dramacydal)
[Tupac]
That's right nigga you gotta get your papers in this motherfucker
I ain't mad at ya at all (damn)
Aiyyo, what the fuck you wanna be when you grow up RahRah?
[RahRah] Nigga, is you stupid, I wanna be a motherfuckin Outlaw
[Tupac] That's right nigga, hahaha.. housin these hoes, you feel me?
[RahRah] Aight, knowhatI'msayin?
[Tupac] You got to do that shit, keepin it real nigga or what?
[RahRah] Keepin it real!
[Tupac] How old are you nigga?
[RahRah] I'm eleven
[Tupac]
Cause all I see is, murder murder, my mind state
preoccupied with homicide, tryin to survive through this crime rate
Dead bodies at block parties, those unlucky bastards
Gunfire now they require may be closed casket
Who can you blame? It's insane what we dare do
Witness an evil that these men do, bitches in, too
In fact they be the reasons niggaz get to bleedin
Pull the fuckin fire when I leave em, you shoulda seen em
Hostile hoes catch elbows (beotch!) negroes disposed of
and snitches get dealt with, with no love
Body bags of adversaries that I had to bury
I broke the law and they jaw, all in the same flurry
But never worry, they'll remember me through history
Causin motherfuckers to bleed, they'll label me a
[Chorus]
Outlaw, Outlaw, Outlaw (They came in to sin)
Outlaw, Outlaw, Outlaw (Dear God, I wonder could you save me?)
[Tupac]
Before I close my eyes I fantasize I'm livin well
when I awake and realize I'm just a prisoner in hell
Just as well, cause in my cell I'm keepin pictures of these bastards
Excersisin, visualizin, everyone inside a casket
Picture me blasted, surrounded by niggaz in masks
Sent with the task to harass and murder my ass
Will I last? Heaven or Hell? Freedom or jail?
Shit's hard, who can you tell? Aand if we fail?
High speeds, and thai weed on the freeway
When will they learn to take it easy? Uh
Drivebys and niggaz die, murder without a motive
by making motherfuckers fry
Got me runnin from these coward-ass crooked-ass cops
Helicopters tryin to hover over niggaz til we drop
Got no time for the courts, my only thought is open fire
Hit the district attorney, but fuck that bitch, cause she's a lie
Now it's time to expire, I see the judge, spray the bitch
'Motherfuckers is crooked,' is what I scream, and hit the fence
I comense to get wicked, spittin rounds as the plot thickens
Never missin an early grave is my only mission
If I die, never worry, bury me beside my four-five
May God forgive me, I was high, label me a
[Chorus]
[Dramacydal]
Society lied to me, I ain't never gonna try to be
My mob'll be doin robberies, and stickups on these wannabe's
I witnessed niggaz lose they chest
For ordinary reasons niggaz bodies put to rest
So I just.. swallow my Beck's and holla, 'Fuck em!'
And if I'm next.. just let a nigga step with somethin
I ain't fearin nuttin
Young and thuggin, prepared for bustin if that's my destiny
Ready for whatever, see you niggaz can't get the best of me
(hold me down) Definitely no need for askin
(now he mad) Top speed (smokin weed) blasted (biotch!)
Cause when I bust em they gonna shiver, the killers cry
Soldiers got bodies floatin in the river, what is they sayin?
Talkin bout prayin -- they need to stop, that ain't gon' help
These niggaz sprayin up my block, tryin to take my wealth
[Chorus 2X]
[Tupac]
Fuck the judge, I gotta grudge
Punk police, niggaz run the streets
Hahah, it ain't nuttin but muuuuzik
Shit's changed
1995 the game has changed, motherfuckers is actin REAL strange
The rules is all rearranged
You got babies lyin dead in the streets
These punk police is crooked as me
but all I see is motherfuckers actin less than G's
Stop bein a playa-hater, be a innovator nigga
Fuck that shit, don't be no entertainer and a stranger
Be a real motherfucker keep it real pack that steel
Cause you know these streets is real deal
Muh'fuckers wanna see me in my casket
Jealous, motherfuckin bastards
I never die, thug niggaz multiply
Cause after me is Thug Life baby
Then the young thugs
Then the youngest thug of all my nigga RahRah
That's right nigga you gotta get your papers in this motherfucker
I ain't mad at ya at all (damn)
Aiyyo, what the fuck you wanna be when you grow up RahRah?
Nigga, is you stupid, I wanna be a motherfuckin Outlaw

Then the young thugs
ive or die, stand or run, shoot ‘em down, smoking gun.
In the time it takes to tell, another dreamer sent to hell.
Just like movies, time to move, bad gunslinger, evil dude.
Know you're fast, hope you're quick, quick draw gun law make your hit.
Born to shoot, hope it's true, today you know the slow one's you.
Outlaw, cut down in your prime,
Outlaw, see the blue sky one last time,
Outlaw, that's all.
Live or die, win or lose, can't be sure, no excuse.
In the street a man lies dead, another dreamer bloody red.
Just in time, lightning speed, frozen moment, time to bleed.
Know it's all about to change, try, die, or live again.
Born to die, we all know that, today you know the first is last.
Outlaw, cut down in your tracks,
Outlaw, so much for the man in black,
Outlaw, that's all.
Die or live, shoot to kill, the old routine you know so well.
Gun law rules that's what I said, another dreamer woke up dead.
Justice means the fastest gun, no appeal, done is done.
Know it's quick, hanging tree, courthouse, whorehouse set you free.
Born to live, don't know how long, never know right from wrong.
Outlaw, face down in the dirt,
Outlaw, the one that kills you never hurts,
Outlaw, lying in the street,
Outlaw, the last gunslinger you will meet,
Long hard trails underneath the Texas sun
Rode into the town I was lookin' for some action
Drier than a cactus had my back against the wall
Suckin' down the hooch when I heard the stranger yell "Draw!"
Tried to do some talkin' but his hand was on his gun
I was quicker to the trigger so now I'm on the run
(Chorus)
No I'm an outlaw running like the rest
No one buys my story that I shot in self defense
Outlaw, runnin' from the pack
Baby here they come, yeah they're breathin' down my back
Hi-ho silver, now they're comin' after me
Gotta keep movin' or they'll hang me from an old tree
Tell my wife and kids I'll see them when I can
Gotta keep movin' I am a wanted man
Tried to do some talkin' but his gun was at my head
Quicker to the trigger and I pumped him full of lead
Down below the border,
He robbed a bank in Mexico.
Half crazed on tequila,
He had a, half million in gold.
There's thunder in the ground,
And he could hear the sound.
A showdown in the distance,
They're gonna ride him down.
Bet your life on the silver ball,
Spin it, 'round the wheel.
Will it land on the black or the red?
The outlaw's got no deal.
When he gambled with women,
He kept an ace up his sleeve.
He always got what he came for,
He never played it clean.
Then he was blinded by passion,
Playing a game of fools.
Thought she was lucky,
Thought she was his best bet,
Guess you find out when you lose.
Bet your life on the silver ball,
Spin it, 'round the wheel.
Will it land on the black or the red?
The outlaw's got no deal.
Bet your life on the silver ball,
Spin it, 'round the wheel.
Will it land on the black or the red?
The outlaw's got no deal.
Bet your life on the silver ball,
Spin it, 'round the wheel.
Will it land on the black or the red?
The outlaw's got no deal.
Bet your life on the silver ball,
Spin it, 'round the wheel.
Will it land on the black or the red?
Oh so long, hide your faces from the
Sun,
From the distance I hear you callin',
'cause you're on the run.
You're one out of millions and
There's no place that you call home,
(It's) an endless turnin' circle,
Nobody cared where you're comin'
From.
Where are you runnin' to, escape
From yesterday
Is this the price you have to pay.
Can't see the sun around, you're
Hidin' in the cave
And if you don't care more, it will
Take you to the grave
You're an outlaw
Undercover in the night
You're an outlaw
There's no heart to jump
Inside
You're an outlaw
Broken hero in the night
You're an outlaw
Running wild
Hear me screaming, it's agony and
Fear,
Shadows in the darkness, there's no
"Life" to appear
I can't go on without love, I'm lost
Behind the wall
I'm the guy who rides the devil, For
When I left my home
I was not much more
than a child,
My mother started crying
She knew that I was
born to be wild.
'Cos I was looking for
the bright lights of the big
city,
A red hot town where
the girls are pretty.
I took to the highway,
Chasing my dream down
the line.
Heading out for trouble,
Never finding my peace
of mind.
'Cos I been run out of
town so many times
before
An' usually kind of
places where I can't go
back no more.
Outlaw born outside of
the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will
always take chances for
fun.
I never find it easy trying
to keep the feeling alive,
I've always been a
dreamer,
Dreamers find it hard to
survive.
When they're living in the
bright lights of the big
city,
A red hot town where
the girls are pretty.
Outlaw born outside of
the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will
always take chances for
fun.
Outlaw born outside of
the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will
always take chances for
fun.
(Solo)
Outlaw born outside of
the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will
always take chances for
fun.
Born outside of the law,
Just another outlaw,
Man on the run will
always take chances for
fun.
Outlaw, outlaw,
Man on the run will
always take chances for
I feel like I'm not wanted here
and I wonder what I'm living for
discerning eyes are burning me
they make me feel like an outlaw
Do you need a uniform
to see the band tonight
are the people here for fun
or maybe looking for a fight
You can't come in if you don't look right
Doesn't the music make it right
It seems fashion keeps the youth confined
We have missed the whole idea
I thought we listened with our ears
But we keep them closed with fear
Brutality and snobbery
will keep the cults at war
it's just music why such hate
there's nothing to be solved at all
You can't come in if you don't look right
Doesn't the music make it right
It seems fashion keeps the youth confined
We have missed the whole idea
I thought we listened with our ears
But we keep them closed with fear
You can't come in if you don't look right
Doesn't the music make it right
It seems fashion keeps the youth confined
We have missed the whole idea
I thought we listened with our ears
But we keep them closed with
keep them closed with
keep them closed with
fear

Black streak on the boulevard
Another place they don't let you stay
White rain fallin' cold-n-hard
Gotta get thru it anyway
Try to be what ya wanna be
Who's to say you ain't got the right
In a world where you never sleep
Every day is another fight
You can't live with the old rules
And I can understand
So you run to stay sane
When you're an outlaw everyone knows your name
When you're an outlaw everyone thinks you're strange
Try to be what you're born to be
Don't you dare you ain't got the might
When they go and get ya angry
You'll be there to stand and fight
You ain't lookin' for trouble hey, I can understand you but it's here anyway
When you're an outlaw everyone knows your name
When you're an outlaw nobody feels your pain
There goes the renegade you're the one they love to hate
But I don't look at you that way
You can live by your own rules if that's the way you planned
But there's no where to go
When you're an outlaw you run like an outlaw
You live like an outlaw alone like an outlaw
I know you're an outlaw I'm not your enemy
'Cuz you're not an outlaw when you're alone with me
So c'mon outlaw, outlaw
I'm a stranger in town and my guns never cold
I'm a gambler so bet on your life
You'll never live to grow old
I deal in lead I won't step aside
Where trouble's waitin well so am I
I live for the fight the thrill of the kill
Paid in gold for the blood I spill
Outlaw outlaw outlaw ride
Into the West a gun by your side
Hell and glory honor and pride
A gun will decide where the outlaws ride
The law of the West was the law of the gun
Shoot and be fast live on the run
Stay alive be fast on the draw
Live by the gun or die by the law
Outlaw outlaw outlaw ride
Into the West a gun by your side
Hell and glory honor and pride
A gun will decide where the outlaws ride
Shot through the heart in the blink of an eye
Buried up on boot hill
Life is cheap when the bounty is high
So be ready to kill
The law of the West was the law of the gun
Shoot and be fast live on the run
Stay alive be fast on the draw
live by the gun or die by the law
Shot of whisky I'll be on my way
Back in the saddle pull on the reins
Spurs to the beast over the hill
Another town one more kill
Outlaw outlaw outlaw ride
Into the West a gun by your side
Hell and glory honor and pride

Nobody move I got the Six shooter fully loaded,
Finger like an automatic, bout ta let it fuckin go,
And take a bunch of lives, and I ain't leavin till I hit tha door,
Make a wrong move and watch these shell cases hit tha floor.
An outlaw on tha open range, and just like Jesse James,
I rob these fools for change a Psychopathic Ombre with a price on my melon,
But takin money from bitches and sendin they spirits to heaven.
I'm on an all black horse and in an all black cap,
My pistols layin bad luck just like an all black cat
And I ain't playin with you Mutherfuckas, empty out tha drawers
They gone chatter outta tha safe and I'll be out tha fuckin door.
[Chorus:]
Six shooter on my side, I ma ride, They ain't never takin me alive, They never takin me alive

Six shooter on my side, I ma ride, They ain't never takin me alive, They never takin me alive
This is a life of an Outlaw, Hustlin, Stealin, Killin and They never gunna get caught
Cold Blooded Murderra, Wanted, fuckin price on my head
So high they had ta file a Chapter 7
See my face on every corner, don't you bring him back alive
Watch the total, be tha streets, sipped him soon as I arrived
Time ta hit up tha Saloons, shoot tha dude behind tha bar
Grabbed a whole thing of Whiskey, then I lit up a cigar
Time for scopin now, Ho I need to get my dick sucked
I been ridin all day and now some hookers gettin fucked
I seen a bitch upon the stage and she was packin huge Jugs
Up tha stairs by hair then I beat tha pussy up
She started screamin like a demon, Put tha barrel in her mouth
Shot a load in her face and then I blew her Fuckin brains out...
[Chorus:]
Six shooter on my side, I ma ride, They ain't never takin me alive, They never takin me alive

This is a life of an Outlaw, Hustlin, Stealin, Killin and They never gunna get caught
Marshalls on my ass, the lynch mob on to my trail,
Just one finger upon they moss, and after sendin me ta hell
In an old pine box with no return stamped on tha top
It's gonna be a shoot em' up son, den ya hear tha shots pop
I can't say nuttin for tha people I killed, my name called off in a rocker hole dug in boothill
Dis gonna be fuckin day cause I can feel it in my bones,
Twenty men with twenty guns about ta send my ass home
Grab tha Winchester, and it's on just like a switch,

Got a twenty man posse right on my ass
I'm ahead of 'em now but they're comin' fast
Busted out at dawn, it's past midnight
Won't get a stop to drink till the morning light
I got a fistful of lead buried in my back
Got a hundred thousand dollars right in this sack
I'm just beginnin' my life, I'm ready for death
Been runnin' for a while and they ain't caught me yet
Lawman killer, I'm an outlaw
Livin' testament that crim pays
Look over your shoulder
Remember that you're older
Forget about who told ya
That everything is over
You don't have to change your name
You can outrun your chasing blame
Just like an outlaw each one of us will get away
Look over your shoulder
The past will make you bolder
And even if it's colder
You'll be one step closer
You don't have to change your name
You can outrun your chasing blame
Just like an outlaw each one of us will get away
Rise, saints and sinners rise
Today we're equal
Unite, all of us unite
The time has come where we will be as one
You don't have to change your name
You can't outrun your chasing blame
I have slipped into
I have slipped into
Saw those creatures in the back of my heart
Opened the door and attacked them at the start
Pushed my blood into a deeper trance
It consumes my thought, it alters my stance
I have slipped into a mighty stream
Open my fins, open my scream
I saw you sleeping with your coat on a hill
While my face lay at the windowsill
I walked down the street on the sidewalks so cold
I walked down the street into the coat that folds
You turned around, screamed at the scene
Grabbed my hand and leapt out of the screen
I won't be there when the monster flips
I'll have it buried with an axe and a pick
I have seen you in your jacket
Now I am an outlaw
Long hard trails underneath the Texas sun
Rode into the town I was lookin' for some action
Drier than a cactus, had my back against the wall
Suckin' down the hooch, when I heard the stranger yell, "Draw!"
Tried to do some talkin', but his hand was on his gun
I was quicker to the trigger, so now I'm on the run
(Chorus)
Cause I'm an outlaw, running like the rest
No one buys my story, that I shot in self-defense
Outlaw, runnin' from the pack
Baby here they come, yeah they're breathin' down my back
Hi-ho silver, now they're comin' after me
Gotta keep movin' or they'll hang me from an old tree
Tell my wife and kids I'll see them when I can
Gotta keep movin' I am a wanted man
Tried to do some talkin' but his gun was at my head
In this small world, I'll find some truth.
Whether, I'm alive or them or you.
And when I see, just what they've done.
I'll take their guns and bone them one by one,
All to hell yeah.
And when they see, just what I've done.
They'll take my neck and string me out by one,
Out by one no.
Some more.
Ten years ago, we chose the way
what we believe, the games we play
came out of school, we had no job
the first money, will open some door
the next deal, we want much more
More girls, more drugs, more rock´n roll
comes the day, lost mind and heart
no way back, for legal start
that is real life, I go my way
Tattooed skin, the letters show
fuck you all, punks not dead
no future, no hope, FUCK NO WAY OUT!
Stop the next morning
Stop now, today
and where we go
Don´t stop this way
Stop mistakes warning
Stop time to pay
and where I go
I don´t stop my fucking way
All these years,
we were walking down the streets
for our causes, for our truth
Two faces
Playing with my trust in you
You cover all your traces
And watch me relax with you
Insidious
Creep away and do your deal
Return what you think is you
It couldn't be further from the truth
Cruel, Keeping this a secret
Fool, you surely are
It's so You, Blind to all the damage done
You go too far
Couldn't you have told me before
I would have loved you, So much more
Couldn't you have told me before
Feeling like an outlaw
So you got some
You brought another person
Uncanny how he looks like you
Except there is too much he cannot do
It's not the problem
But the way you shut your mouth was real low
My reputation tainted
I will not accept being the last to know
Cruel, Keeping this a secret
Fool, you surely are
It's so You, Blind to all the damage done
You go too far
Couldn't you have told me before
I would have loved you, So much more
Couldn't you have told me before
Feeling like an outlaw
Cruel, Keeping this a secret
Fool, you surely are
It's so You, Blind to all the damage done
You go too far
Couldn't you have told me before
I would have loved you, So much more
Couldn't you have told me before
(Music: Pell / Lyrics: Pell)
Oh so long, hide your faces from the
Sun,
From the distance I hear you callin',
'cause you're on the run.
You're one out of millions and
There's no place that you call home,
(It's) an endless turnin' circle,
Nobody cared where you're comin'
From.
Where are you runnin' to, escape
From yesterday
Is this the price you have to pay.
Can't see the sun around, you're
Hidin' in the cave
And if you don't care more, it will
Take you to the grave
You're an outlaw
Undercover in the night
You're an outlaw
There's no heart to jump
Inside
You're an outlaw
Broken hero in the night
You're an outlaw
Running wild
Hear me screaming, it's agony and
Fear,
Shadows in the darkness, there's no
"Life" to appear
I can't go on without love, I'm lost
Behind the wall
I'm the guy who rides the devil, For
Whom the bells toll..
Repeat bridge
So your boots, theyre old and dusty & lying down on the floor
And a candlelight, its burnin outside your door
And youre gonna keep staying single, man, you never stayed to long
And that highways gonna kill you before too long
Chorus:
Cause youre always out runnin, tryin to get by
You never even noticed how hard that she tried
Smokin away those nighttimes, drinkin away your days
Its all gonna catch up to you one of these days
Just a modern day outlaw runnin with the wind
Find you a good heart and youll shoot it down again
Well youre just a sad song on another rainy day playing on your radio
Said an outlaws life, man, its no place for a girl
You keep a picture in your wallet and you lock her outside your world
And shes waiting by telephone but you never call
And shes screamin at your picture, you never could at all
Chorus
Now youre drivin down that freeway and you aint got far to go
And you thinkin while youre speedin man, that you might give her a call
But your voice, it starts to crack, you try to say hello
Yeah, you broke her heart so many times, you gotta let her go, you gotta let her go
Chorus
Youre just a broken dream when youre stereo plays
Youre just a sad song on that somehow got away playing on your radio
A broken man before you
My spirit flown away
Can't stop the hammer falling - calling
See only shades of grey
Black is the night approaching
No way I can stay
Inside the storm is growing
A new world born today, yeah yeah
Screams are never heard
No stone's left unturned
My past is slowly dying
Can't blame a man for trying
Holding, on against the grain
Caught - in the eye of a hurricane
I'm the outlaw - outside looking in
Visions of what could have been
Oh, Im hunted night and day
Seems crime's the only way
One day becoming the prey
Fighting the demons within me
My heart's melting away
Justice for all who damn me
We'll meet again one day
Pointing fingers accuse me
This animal should run free
Escaping chains that bind me - breaking free
And holding on - against the grain
I'm caught - in the eye of a hurricane
I'm the outlaw - outside looking in
Visions of what could have been
Oh, I'm hunted night and day
Seems crime's the only way
One day becoming the prey
Alright - out of sight
(Solo)
I'm the outlaw - outside looking in
Visions of what could have been
Oh I'm hunted night and day
Seems crime's the only way
I feel like I'm not wanted here
And I wonder what I'm living for
Discerning eyes are burning me
They make me feel like an outlaw
Do you need a uniform
To see the band tonight
Are the people here for fun
Or maybe looking for a fight
You can't come in if you don't look right
Doesn't the music make it right
It seems fashion keeps the youth confined
We have missed the whole idea
I thought we listened with our ears
But we keep them closed with fear
Brutality and snobbery
Will keep the cults at war
It's just music why such hate
This is another time, This is another life.
This is another fact you're brought to recognize
the empty feeling rise, boredom super-size
you can't break free, you start to recognize
in dark corners hide. careless free rides.
hang in holes in walls to anesthetize
The overwhelming drive, Destroy to feel alive.
Genuflect to hate just to get a rise
The'll cap you cold when you get caught
but now you are on a roll and you're hot
This is outlawed but that don't mean much.
This is outlawed but you got the get away touch
you gotta pick a side, your mind is always fried
you're in no condition to decide
it's just a power game, always been the same
the'll chop off your legs then the'll call you lame
The'll cap you cold when you get caught
but you're on a roll and you're hot
