Makaveli Against All Odds Lyrics

[Tupac all the way through]

One love, one love, one thug
One nation, twenty - one gun salute

I'm hopin my true m_________ers know
This be the realest s___ I ever wrote
Against all odds, up in the studio, gettin blowed
To the truest s___ I ever spoke

Twenty - one gun salute, dressed in fatigue, black jeans and boots
Disappeared in the crowd, all you seen was troops
This little n____ named Nas thinks he live like me
Talkin bout he left the hospital took five like me
You living fantasies, n____ I reject your deposit
We shook Dre punk a__, now we out of the closet
Mobb Deep wonder why n____ blowed them out
Next time grown folks talk, n____ close your mouth
Peep me, I take this war s___ deeply
Done seen too many real players fall to let these b____ n____s beat me
Puffy lets be honest you a punk or you will see me with gloves
Remember that s___ you said to Vibe about me bein a thug
You can tell the people you roll with whatever you want
But you and I know what's going on
Payback, I knew you b____ n____s from way back
Witness me strapped with Macs, knew I wouldn't play that
All you old rappers trying to advance
It's all over now, take it like a man
n____s lookin like Larry Holmes, flabby and sick
Tryin to player hate on my s___, you eat a fat d___
Let it be known this is how you made me
Lovin how I got you n____s crazy

Against all odds

Hopin my thug m_________ers know
This be the realest s___ I ever wrote
Against all odds, up in the studio, gettin blowed
To the truest s___ I ever spoke, against all odds
Hopin my true m_________ers know
This be the realest s___ I ever wrote

I heard he was light skinned, stocky with a Haitian accent
Jewelery, fast cars and he's known for flashing (What's his name???)
Listen while I take you back (n____ SAY HIS NAME!) and lace this rap
A real live tale about a snitch named Haitian Jack
Knew he was workin for the feds, same crime, different
trials
n____, picture what he said, and did I mention
Promised a payback, Jimmy Henchman, in due time
I know you b____ n____s is listenin, The World Is Mine
Set me up, wet me up, n____s stuck me up
Heard the guns bust but you tricks never shut me up
Touch one of mine on everything I own
I'll destroy everything you touch, play the game n____
All out warfare, eye for eye
Last words to a b____ n____, "WHY YOU LIE?!?"
Now you gotta watch your back, now watch your front
Here we come, gunshots too tight, now you stuck
f___ the rap game, n____ this M-O-B
So believe me we enemies, I go against all odds

I'm hopin my true m_________ers know
This be the realest s___ I ever wrote
Against all odds, up in the studio, gettin blowed
To the truest s___ I ever spoke
I'm hopin my true m_________ers know
This be the realest s___ I ever wrote
Against all odds

Puffy gettin robbed like a b____, to hide the fact
he did some s___ he shouldn't have did, so we ride em for that
And that n____ that was down for me, restin dead
Switch sides, guess his new friends wanted him dead
Probably be murdered for the s___ that I said
I bring the real, be a legend, breathin the dead
Lord listen to me
God don't like ugly, It Was Written
Hey Nad, your whole d___ style is bitten
You heard my melody, read about my life in the papers
All my run-ins with authorities, felonious capers
Now you wanna live my life, so what's the answer Nas?
n____s that don't rhyme right, you've seen too many movies
Load em up against the wall, close his eyes
Since you lie you die, GOODBYE
Let the real live n____s hear the truth from me
What would you do if you was me n____

Against all odds

I'm hopin my true m_________ers know
This be the realest s___ I ever wrote
Against all odds, up in the studio, gettin blowed
To the truest s___ I ever spoke

[Repeat]

Against all odds

[Twenty - one gun salute]

One love to my true thug n____s (Outlaw! Outlaw! Outlaw!)
Twenty-one gun salute to my n____s that die in the line of duty
Representin to the fullest bein soldiers with military
minds that play the rules of the game, twenty-one gun salute
I salute you my n____s, stay strong
I ride for you, I rhyme for you, I roll for you, it's all for you
To all you b____ made n____s, I'm comin for you
Against all odds, I don't care who the f___ you is, n____
You touch me I'm at you
I know you m_________ers think that I forgot
Hell no I ain't forgot n____
I just remember what you told me
You said don't go to war unless I got my money behind me
Aight, I got my money right here, now I want war
