[Intro: 2Pac]

Outlaw Immortalz

Bow down to somethin' greater than yourself, trick

Individuals capable of enormous amounts of chin checks and eye swolls, they know

You watchin' but you ain't seein' what lies before you, biatch

Picture, if you will

Seven deadly human beings blessed with the gift of speech

The power to reach each nigga on every street

May the heavenly Father look down and be proud of what transpired

Since the day the seed was planted

The G grew but we know he'd have a clique

Smoked out, loced out, all into shit

Just me and my dogs, livin' like hogs, Outlaw Immortalz

What follows is the story, what proceeded was the glue

What lies between is the fiction

Don't fuck around and make it true


[Verse 1: 2Pac]

My adversaries crumble, when we rumble it's a catastrophe

Out for revenge on bitch niggas that blasted me

Plus, my alias is Makaveli

A loaded .357 with hollow points to a nigga belly

Bust him to see if he bleed

He shoulda never fucked around with a sick-ass nigga like me

They call my name out and niggas run

Best be prepared for the Outlawz, here we come


[Verse 2: Hussein Fatal]

They call me Hussein Fatal, it's a two-game table

I'm robbin' your nigga's cradle with a knife in your navel

Rap-related, criminally activated and evil

I wouldn't wanna be you behind my fuckin' Desert Eagle

'Til the end, I'm tellin' all friends and enemies

You see what I got to make you freeze

To touch me, you need ten of these

Complete most wanted on the streets of the East Coast

Young Gunz fire and niggas bleed, I see Mo


[Verse 3: Kastro]

I be shinin' like white diamonds and crystal, glistenin' holdin' pistols

The mission's simple, fold up and roll up dead presidentials

Sew up all the potential, million, billion-dollar baller potential

Sort it ought to call on a nigga I'll be sure to get you

Take cash, bro, fast yo, for my Kastro

Blast and I'ma last yo' past all these Glass Joes

And assholes who claim, like they be runnin' thangs

I be gunnin' those same niggas runnin' late, to their fate

[Verse 4: Napoleon & 2Pac]

My alias is motherfuckin' Napoleon, and I'd rather be

Robbin' again before these motherfuckers leave me sufferin'

But it ain't nothin', and I got no time for no bluffin'

Before a nigga finish with puttin' in work, I better end up with somethin'

I think these niggas got the game fucked up

If they don't believe that a young nigga like me would bust (Boo-ya)

Perhaps it's a must, I'm facin' cases, fuck probation

Is what I'm screamin' when these money hungry cops be chasin'


[Chorus: 2Pac]

Thug nigga 'til we die

No mercy on these player hatin' bitches, ask me why

When we ride

Thug nigga 'til we die

No mercy on these player hatin' bitches, ask me why

When we ride

[Verse 5: Big Syke & E.D.I. Mean]

It's the imperial serial killer, alias Mussolini

Mentally unstable G status, so you can't see me

Drug warlord, ridin' Concorde jets

Rag Vette's, shakin' bitches and snitches and trippin' on sets

Inglewood's banger, keepin' one in the chamber

For the anger that I build inside, when it's time to ride

Suicidal thoughts lurk fuckin' no end to revenge

Fuck any, my alias Mussolini (Huh)


[Verse 6: E.D.I. Mean]

They call me E.D.I., from the side of seedy

Young nigga greedy, so I'm runnin' up on these niggas easy

It ain't nothin', 'cause if they wantin' somethin'

So I'ma commence to dump and stomp down and struck up while my beat is bumpin', thuggin'

To my fuckin' last note, with Lil' 'Pole and Kastro

Who you thought was on that asshole? Don't ask, though

Outlaw Immortalz doin' this dit-nirt on the slide

Ain't no chance to hide when we ride


[Verse 7: Yaki Kadafi]

My alias Kadafi, Trump tight so feds can't copy

Six-three and cocky, quick to hit your bitch if she jock me

Severely addicted to livin' like a fuckin' felon

While beefin' with rookie cops, the cookie rocks a nigga sellin' since a shorty

I been livin' life defiant, nickel plated chrome

Got this baby Capone lookin' like a giant, and I ain't lyin'

It's like it's me against myself with all these backstabbin' snakes grabbin' at my fuckin' wealth


[Verse 8: Mo Khomeini]

Mo Khomeini goes terrorist, mad man killer

The bottom of the river where the body lays and shivers

I'm that nigga with the fifty-cap pouch with the murderous stacks

That increase while these motherfuckers eat beef

It's been a long road, a lot of episodes

And as the Glock loads, I got to teach hoes

Reach hoes, make 'em feel a nigga when I'm mashin'

Now I'm surpassin' any assassin


[Chorus: 2Pac]

Thug niggas 'til we die

No mercy on these playa hatin' bitches, ask me why

When we ride

Thug niggas 'til we die

No mercy on these playa hatin' bitches, ask me why

When we ride

Thug niggas 'til we die

No mercy on these playa hatin' bitches, ask me why

When we ride

Thug niggas 'til we die

No mercy on these playa hatin' bitches, ask me why

When we ride


[Outro: 2Pac]

Hahahaha, Outlaw Immortalz, baby (Right)

Y'all niggas can't fade this ol' crazy shit (Can't see me, can't see me)

Makaveli, Hussein, Kastro, Kadafi, Mussolini

Amin, Napoleon, Khomein

What y'all really wanna do?

Haha, like them niggas said

"What would you do if you could fuck with me and my crew?"

Hehahahahaha, Thug Life, yeah, nigga

Last year we was Thug Life

This year we Thug Life but we Outlaw Immortalz

We die, nigga, but we multiply, we like legends, nigga, like forever

Like, I'll make you famous, motherfucker

I'm talkin' about Newsweek and Time Magazine

And all that old good shit

My niggas make the papers, baby

My niggas make the front page

Multiple gunshots, execution style, wild shit, they ain’t knowin'

We out
