Holler If Ya Hear Me

Aww yeah, uhh, uhh

Holla if ya hear me, yeah!

[Verse One]

Here we go, turn it up, let's start

From block to block we snatchin hearts and jackin marks

And the punk police can't fade me, and maybe

We can have peace someday G

But right now I got my mind set up

Lookin down the barrel of my nine, get up

Cause it's time to make the payback fat

To my brothers on the block better stay strapped, black

And accept no substitutes

I bring truth to the youth tear the roof off the whole school

Oh no, I won't turn the other cheek

In case ya can't see us while we burn the other week

Now we got him in a smash, blast

How long will it last 'til the po' gettin mo' cash

Until then, raise up!

Tell my young black males, blaze up!

Life's a mess don't stress, test

I'm givin but be thankful that you're livin, blessed

Much love to my brothers in the pen

See ya when I free ya if not when they shove me in

Once again it's an all out scrap

Keep your hands on ya gat, and now ya boys watch ya back

Cause in the alleys out in Cali I'ma tell ya

Mess with the best and the vest couldn't help ya

Scream, if ya feel me; see it clearly?

You're too near me -

[Chorus]

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Hard!" .. "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Hard!" .. "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Hard!" .. "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[Verse Two]

Pump ya fists like this

Holla if ya hear me - PUMP PUMP if you're pissed

To the sell-outs, livin it up

One way or another you'll be givin it up, huh

I guess cause I'm black born

I'm supposed to say peace, sing songs, and get capped on

But it's time for a new plan, BAM!

I'll be swingin like a one man, clan

Here we go, turn it up, don't stop

To my homies on the block gettin dropped by cops

I'm still around for ya

Keepin my sound underground for ya

And I'ma throw a change up

Quayle, like you never brought my name up

Now my homies in the backstreets, the blackstreets

They fell me when they rollin in they fat jeeps

This ain't just a rap song, a black song

Tellin all my brothers, get they strap on

And look for me in the struggle

Hustlin 'til other brothers bubble -

[Chorus]

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Hard!" .. "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Hard!" .. "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Hard!" .. "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

[Verse Three]

Will I quit, will I quit?

They claim that I'm violent, but still I keep

representin, never give up, on a good thing

Wouldn't stop it if we could it's a hood thing

And now I'm like a major threat

Cause I remind you of the things you were made to forget

Bring the noise, to all my boyz

Know the real from the bustas and the decoys

And if ya hustle like a real G

Pump ya fists if ya feel me, holla if ya hear me

Learn to survive in the nine-tre'

I make rhyme pay, others make crime pay

Whatever it takes to live and stand

Cause nobody else'll give a damn

So we live like caged beasts

Waitin for the day to let the rage free

Still me, till they kill me

I love it when they fear me -

[Chorus]

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Hard!" .. "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Hard!" .. "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Hard!" .. "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[2Pac] You're too near me, to see it clearly

[repeat 4x]

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Hard!" .. "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

[repeat 2X]

"Hard!" .. "Tellin you to hear it, the rebel" - P.E.

"Tellin you to hear it.."

"Hard!" .. "The rebel"

"Hard!" .. "The rebel"

[repeat 12X to fade]

[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

"Hard!" .. "The rebel"
