"Changed Man"

(feat. Johnta' Austin, T.I.)

[2Pac]

Shit, I'm a changed man

Ay, turn the lights out

Big baller 2Pac up in this bitch

Y'know how we swing this shit, look

[Verse One: 2Pac]

By age sixteen I sold to dopefiends

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 gunsmoke, I broke his jaw

Words harder than a fuckin diamond

Mobile phone call to Simon, niggaz trippin homey, when we ridin?

Fuck them slowly like Jodeci

And stick a needle in my eye if I don't live and die for M.O.B.

And fuck your homeboys nigga we can drop the guns

I hit your block and we can box for fun

Nigga one on one, last to fall is a baller cat

It's Death Row, why the fuck 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 bitches, who do you fear?

The gameplan of a changed man, so what I'm sayin is

[Chorus: Johnta' Austin + (2Pac)]

I changed plans but I'm still the same old rider

(Fuckin with a changed man)

I slang a new dope to the world but the people still buy it up

(Nigga you fuckin with a changed man)

All my real thug niggaz, go and get your hands up

You go and drink the Henn' up

(You fuckin with a changed man)

Changed man, you're dealin with a changed man

[Verse Two: T.I.]

In drop top, the glock cocked, got rocks in my socks

Cops spot Watt niggaz but hardly stop niggaz

Not if they got niggaz, doughboys and hot niggaz

Who mighta shot niggaz but only by strugglin

I'm for respect nowadays they expect me

to be in a Ferrari or the old Lexus

Or anything you see flashin past and can't catch

Dat's me, gauge on the Escalade 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 record nigga, fuck you, blow me

But you will respect me or get it in your neckpiece G

No three niggaz here are gonna let me be

or get your insides exposed to the streets nigga

[Chorus]

[Verse Three: 2Pac]

A nigga so cold when I flow, bow down to Death Row

Three wheel motion, comin through coastin

Who's that nigga in the G-ride screamin out

M.O.B.! Nigga we ride

I hit the charts like a stick-up kid

#1 in the nation

I fucked 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 niggaz

And fuck a bitch, cause a true sister love niggaz

Throw yo' hands in the air, close your eyes and hope

Never come against the massive smoke, on Death Row

My adversaries BLEED

But fuck 'em all 'til the talk cease, fuckin with a changed man

[Chorus]

[Chorus w/ 2Pac speaking over it]

[2Pac]

E'rybody think they understand me

Shit, you niggaz don't know me

Y'all know that nigga on the rap song

Y'all know that nigga in the movies

You don't know this nigga in 3-D

Real live right up against you in front of yo' face

Shit, nigga you fuckin with a changed man

[Outro: 2Pac]

Westside, Outlaw Immortalz, hehehe

You fuckin with a changed man

Hahaha.. you fuckin with a changed man

Hahaha.. I ain't the same, you fuckin with a changed man

We ain't the same, you fuckin with a changed man

We ain't the same, fuckin with a changed man

Changed man
