Only God can judge me
Only God can judge me, is that right?[synth voice] Only God can judge me nowOnly God baby, nobody else, nobody elseAll you other motherfuckers get out my business
[Verse One: 2Pac]
Perhaps I was blind to the facts, stabbed in the backI couldn't trust my own homies just a bunch a dirty ratsWill I, succeed, paranoid from the weedAnd hocus pocus try to focus but I can't seeAnd in my mind I'ma blind man doin timeLook to my future cause my past, is all behind meIs it a crime, to fight, for what is mine?Everybody's dyin tell me what's the use of tryinI've been Trapped since birth, cautious, cause I'm cursedAnd fantasies of my family, in a hearseAnd they say it's the white man I should fearBut, it's my own kind doin all the killin hereI can't lie, ain't no love for the other sideJealousy inside, make em wish I diedOh my Lord, tell me what I'm livin forEverybody's droppin got me knockin on heaven's doorAnd all my memories, of seein brothers bleedAnd everybody grieves, but still nobody seesRecollect your thoughts don't get caught up in the mixCause the media is full of dirty tricksOnly God can judge me
[Chorus: 2Pac]
[synth voice] Only God can judge meThat's right baby, yeah baby[synth voice] Only GodHahahahahahahaha[synth + Pac] Only God can judge me, only God can judge[synth cont.] me, only GodOnly God can judge me[synth + Pac] Only God can judge meAnd only God can[synth voice] Only God can judge me, only GodOnly God can judge me[synth + Pac] Only God can judge meOnly God can judge me[synth voice] Only God can judge me, only GodOnly God can judge me[synth voice] Only God can judge me now

[Verse Two: 2Pac]
I hear the doctor standing over me [heart monitor: beeping slowly]screamin I can make itGot a body full of bullet holes layin here nakedStill I, can't breathe, somethings evil in my IVCause everytime I breathe, I think they killin me [beeping sound stops]I'm having nightmares, homicidal fantansiesI wake up stranglin, danglin my bed sheetsI call the nurse cause it hurts, to reminisceHow did it come to this? I wish they didn't missSomebody help me, tell me where to go from hereCause even Thugs cry, but do the Lord care?Try to remember, but it hurtsI'm walkin through the cemetary talkin to the, dirtI'd rather die like a man, than live like a cowardThere's a ghetto up in Heaven and it's ours, Black Poweris what we scream as we dream in a paranoid stateAnd our fate, is a lifetime of hateDear Mama, can you save me? And fuck peaceCause the streets got our babies, we gotta eatNo more hesitation each and every black male's trappedAnd they wonder why we suicidal runnin round strappedMista, Po-lice, please try to see that it'sa million motherfuckers stressin just like meOnly God can judge me
[Chorus w/ variations]
[Interlude: 2Pac]
That which does not kill me can only make me stronger(That's for real)and I don't see why everybody feel as thoughthat they gotta tell me how to live my life(You know?)Let me live baby, let me live
