  • [Intro: 2Pac]
    Let us pray
    Heavenly Father, hear a nigga down here
    Before I go to sleep
    Tell me, who do you believe in?
    Who do you believe in?
    [Verse One: 2Pac]
    I see mothers in black cryin, brothers in packs dyin
    Plus everybody's high, too doped up to ask why
    Watchin our own downfall, witness the end
    It's like we don't believe in God cause we livin in sin
    I asked my homie on the block why he strapped, he laughed
    Pointed his pistol as the cop car passed and blast
    It's just another murder, nobody mourns no more
    My tear drops gettin bigger but can't figure what I'm cryin for
    Is it the miniature caskets, little babies
    Victims of a stray, from drug dealers gone crazy
    Maybe it's just the drugs, visions of how the block was
    Crack came and it was strange how it rocked us
    Perhaps the underlyin fact they hide explain genocide
    It's when we ride on our own kind
    What is it we all fear, reflections in the mirror
    We can't escape fate, the end is gettin nearer
    [Chorus 2X: 2Pac]
    Who do you believe in?
    I put my faith in God, blessed and still breathin
    And even though it's hard, that's who I believe in
    Before I'm leavin, I'm askin the grievin - who do you believe in?
    [Verse Two: 2Pac]
    Can't close my eyes cause all I see is terror
    I hate the man in the mirror
    Cause his reflection makes the pain turn realer
    Times of Armageddeon, murder in mass amounts
    In this society where only gettin the cash counts
    I started out as a beginner
    Entered the criminal lifestyle became a sinner
    I make my money and vacate, evade prison
    Went from the chosen one to outcast, unforgiven
    And all the Hennessy and weed can't hide, the pain I feel inside
    You know, it's like I'm livin just to die
    I fall on my knees and beg for mercy, not knowin if I'm worthy
    Livin life thinkin no man can hurt me
    So I'm askin -- before I lay me down to sleep
    Before you judge me, look at all the shit you did to me, my misery
    I rose up from the slums, made it out the flames
    In my search for fame will I change? I'm askin
    [Chorus]
    [Verse Three: Kadafi]
    Faith in Allah, believe in me and this plastic
    Cause so far I done witnessed to many dead niggaz in caskets
    With they chest plates stretched like elastic
    And what's worse I'm on front line, holdin down camp, still mashin
    Heard my cousin, one of the old heads from the block
    Just came home October of '95 back in Yardsville stuck
    with a three to five, if he don't act up, now he realize
    If you don't stay wise, then in this game you fucked
    Talk to my baby girl, give me the word on what she heard
    One of the grimmies is snitchin, Diamond a stool pigeon I talked to him
    He said he didn't, my man said he did, in fact he's sure
    Cause he just came home off of bail
    [2Pac] Now tell me
    [2Pac]
    Who do you believe in?
    I put my faith in God, blessed and still breathin
    [singing while 2Pac speaks]
    Who do you believe in? Put my faith in God, and
    Blessed and still breathin
    [singer + (2Pac)]
    Even though it's hard (Who do you believe in?)
    That's who I believe in (Put my faith in God)
    Before I'm leavin (Even though it's hard)
    I'm askin the grievin
    (Before I'm leavin I'm askin the grievin - who do you believe in?)
    Who do you believe in? (Who do you believe in?)
    Who do you (Blessed and still breathin)
    Oh blessed, oh blessed
    (Before I'm leavin I'm askin the grievin - who do you believe in?)
    [singer]
    Oh who do you
    Do you believe in
    Hohhhhh-ohhhhh
    [2Pac over singer]
    Who do you believe in?
    I put my faith in God, blessed and still breathin
    And even though it's hard, that's who I believe in
    Before I'm leavin I'm askin the grievin - who do you believe in?
    [singer + (2Pac)]
    I'm askin (Who do you believe in?)
    I'm askin you (Put my faith in God)
    (That's who I believe in)
    (Before I'm leavin I'm askin the grievin - who do you believe in?)
    [2Pac]
    Who do you believe in?
    I'm blessed and still breathin
    That's who I believe in
    Before I'm leavin, I'm askin the grievin
    Who do you believe in?
    Who do you believe in? [echoes to fade]

      @@stevenduncan6038 I think a HUGE reason is how horrible the albums were after he died. 90% of the posthumous production was VERY bad. A lot of the unreleased songs were great, and for unknown reasons they turned most of them into absolute shit for release. I think rather than having to pay for the samples used in the originals and royalties they just decided to go a different direction to make a quick buck and didn't care if they trashed his legacy in the process. Kids pick those albums up now days and get the wrong first impression. Like if you're listening to loyal to the game you're basically listening to a totally different artist. That is NOT 2Pac! end rant.

    To me, a song like this is what separates him from Biggie and Eminem. Eminem at least tries though. Biggie just never touched on these types of subjects. He cannot be number 1.

Jay Kay's subject matter and lyrical content really moved me but had no idea it would lead to this poignant classic from 2Pac which shows a glimpse of his genius cypher... This is particularly of interest to me as it reveals 2Pac's spiritual side. Your musical legacy lives on, Rest in peace Tupac Shakur 🙏

      By the hands of God let us all put aside the idea of rising above or surpressing another race, and then the potentially intimidating intended notion of majorities vs minorities, one way or the other, is pointless. It should always be about Good vs Evil. Anything less than that is unethical and short sighted. Blacks and Hispanic face enough prejudice without perpetuating the idea this is still a war between races. It's not. It's a war against institutionalized racism in police and judicial fronts, and poverty, imho. But it's definitely not a race war anymore.
