2Pac - Hold Ya Head Lyrics
[Malcolm X prison scene:]
Yo, Jackson! A 231549
Yeah, close four! Comin' down!
Crichlow! A 5991301
Close five! Comin' down!
[2Pac:]
My homeboys in Clinton And Rikers Island
All the Penitentiaries
Mumia, Mutulu, Geronimo, Sekon
All the political Prisoners
San Quentin (Look at Satan) (I see him)
All the jailhouses, I'm with you
[2Pac (Tyrone Wrice):]
Yeah, one thug, one thug
You're listenin' to the sounds of one thug
One thug, one thug, how do we get ahead?
You're listenin' to the sounds of…
[2Pac:]
I wake up early in the mornin', mind state so military
Suckers fantasizin' pictures of a young brother buried
Was it me, the weed, or this life I lead?
If daytime is for suckers, then tonight we breathe
Out for all that, knowin' that this world bring drawbacks
Look how they shiver once I deliver these raw raps
Meet me at the cemetery, dressed in black
Tonight we honor the dead, those who won't be back
So, if I die, do the same for me, shed no tears
An outlaw thug livin' in this game for years
Why worry? Hope to God, get me high when I'm buried
Knowin' deep inside only a few love me
Don't rush me to the gates of Heaven
Let me picture for a while, how I lived for my days as a child
I wonder now, how do we outlast?
Always get cash, stay strong if we all mash; hold ya head!
[Tyrone Wrice (2Pac):]
How do we keep the music playin'?
(Yes, you got to hold ya head!)
How do we get ahead? (Hold ya head!)
Too many young black brothers are dyin'
(Yes, you got to hold ya head!)
Livin' fast, too fast
[2Pac:]
These felonies be like prophecies
Beggin' me to stop, 'cause these
Lawyers gettin' money every time they knock us
Snatchin' pockets lyrically, suckers flee when they notice
Switched my name to Makaveli, half the rap game ghost
Exposed foes with my hocus-pocus flows, they froze
Now suckers idolize my chosen blows
And mo' money mean litigatin', mo' playa hatin'
Got a cell at the pen' for me waitin'—is this my fate?
Miss me with that misdemeanor thinkin', me fall back?
Never that, too much tequila drinkin', we all that
Make them understand me? Hell nah, this ain't my posse
Everyone with me is family, 'cause everybody's got me
Watch me paint a perfect vision, this life we livin'
Got us all meetin' up in prison
Last week I got a letter from my road dog, written in blood
Sayin', "Please show a playa love"—hold ya head! (Hold it!)
[Tyrone Wrice (2Pac):]
How do we keep the music playin'?
(You got to hold ya head!)
How do we get ahead? (Come on, hold ya head!)
Too many young black brothers are dyin'
(Yes, hold ya head!)
Livin' fast, too fast
(The weed got me tweakin' in my mind, I'm thinkin'…)
[2Pac:]
God bless the child that can hold his own
Indeed, enemies bleed when I hold my chrome
Let these words be the last to my unborn seeds
Hope to raise my young nation in this world of greed
Currency means nothin' if you still ain't free
Money breeds jealousy, take the game from me
I hope for better days, trouble comes naturally
Runnin' from authorities 'til they capture me
And my aim is to spread mo' smiles than tears
Utilize lessons learned from my childhood years
Maybe Mama had it all right, rest yo' head
Tradin' conversations all night, bless the dead
To the homies that I used to have that no longer roll
Catch a brother at the crossroads
Plus nobody knows my soul, watchin' time pass
Through the glass of my drop-top Rolls; hold ya head!
[Tyrone Wrice (2Pac):]
How do we keep the music playin'?
(You got to hold ya head!)
How do we get ahead? (C'mon, hold ya head!)
Too many young black brothers are dyin'
(Yes, hold ya head!)
Livin' fast, too fast
(You got to hold ya head!)
(How do we keep the music playin'?)
(Yes, you got to hold ya head!)
How do we get ahead?
[2Pac:]
No matter how hard it get, feel me?
Get the weed, drink a drink, read a book
Watch the stars, get some pussy—whatever!

We are born into this world with complete vulnerability, it's the "made sense of world" that tells us that vulnerability is a weakness. To all the 1.8K and climbing who disliked this song. Let your dislike be a reflection of the lack of vulnerability that your victimized soul and the callused wall you have put up around it to protect it. The song can only be felt with an open heart and vulnerable soul.
It's not a East vs. West thing right now, It's a Fake vs. Real thing now.- Say He live the ThugLife, He hopeless, You say it, repeat what he say cuz you think it's cool.....man..............f them phony homies...
Me & You was cool, real tight, real friends. Why you turned on me?- Why you over there with them Fake Homies?- ..........
Running from the police till they capture me

Snatchin ’ pockets lyrically suckas flee when they notice
Switched my name to Makaveli
Half the rap game ghost
Exposed foes with my hocus pocus flows-they froze
Now suckas idolize my chosen blows
He wasn’t even boasting here-just spittin’ the truth in the form of genius lyrics.

see me low
Been in my playlist for over 20 years and I just noticed tonight that he doesn't cuss once the whole song. Says suckers a lot instead. Had to be a concious decision.
Currency means nothing if you ain’t free 2020 🙌🏽
2020 Tu pac, still I rise..
So happened that the 2020 entered with that song after Butch Cassidy - Hotel Motel ...
I hope you brothers of the same vibe to be well , happy , loved , healthy and wealthy ..
Love out of street people might be unperfect but its real ..
So let us brothers of all colors and countries to be loved and understood , at least between us .
I wish you all a happy 2020
We dont have a god nearby , we have us and the rules of the universe apply to all .
Be brave , yet humble . Be strong yet sensitive . Be a human to each other above all the odds .
Thank you for listening to Pac , he was a real brother , fighting for unity against those who are paid to find another way to divide us ..
It is because if one day we will unite , this day will be the last of their enslaving since child system , to live and pay those debts that they hanged upon us ..
I hope you understand the message .. We , the people are the rulers of our countries , but they never told us to , because we would be mentally strong .
Resist the temptation , resist the banksters that are dictating to the presidency their duties ..
Resist my friends , brothers and sisters ... Do it wisely , make other people understand where we are ..
Our future is counting on Us !
Be well fellas , strong in spirit and body . Dont eat junkfood , mcD and Domi ..
Cook real food , have good thoughts and bless with your uniqueness this place ..
"How do we out last? Always keep cash! Stay strong if we all mash!" & they say Pac wasn't a lyricist!!! Man explained the whole game in one bar.
The best lyricist ever!
Plus nobody knows my Soul , watchin' time pass through the glass of my drop-top Rolls; Hold Ya Head !!! #GOAT #Makaveli

Before he died he made this album if you listen carefully he said suge shot him at the beginning
The goat

He is still alive ,he was going back to finished his sentence remember he was on appeal bail for years until his case was heard before a jubge.
This is expert lyricism and creativity at it's finest. No comparison.
I listen again the Makaveli album 2 months ago when i was hospitalized and just heard that my aunt died at 00:30 am. 2019 was horrible but i still keep my head up. Thanks PAC for this gift. Peace to all!
Currency means nothing if we still ain't free, money brings jealousy take the game from me

*12.9.19*
This how we keep the music playing!!!
Makaveli, as we caught him riding in the Benz with MOB Deep, 3 cars deep. Reminiscing on my past, getting fast cash to pass st8 my pass my past. They try their hardest to get uncircumcised meat on my brain that's going to free my demons, they singing.
fucking greatest song
Ma a King the Avenue lie....
2020 it’s 🔥🔥🔥
"I wonder now. How do we outlast? Always keep cash. Stay strong, if we all mash?"
There was only one rap artist greater than Pac. His alter ego Makaveli. Real shit.
Long live the Don Killuminati!
Who was greAter than Pac fool!!!?
I listen to this song everyday
