Intro
[2Pac]
Oh man
(Hey)
Yeah
(Hey)
(Ha ha)
Let’s turn this house
Into a happy home
(This for all the homeboys)
(That couldn’t)
(Get they asses home)
Let’s turn this house
Into a happy home
(As long as one of us got it)
(Some of us got it)
Let’s turn this house
Into a happy home
(You know what that is)
(Stay down for me)
(Ha ha)
Verse 1
[2Pac]
Now we been kickin’ it
For quite some time
Remain beside me
Through my trials
In this life of crime
We done fought
So many times
I forgot to count
I never hit you
Now the coward
Rather leave your house
Remember
Back at the symbol
When we was tight
Sippin’ Alize
And Crystal
While in every night
In my bedroom
Promise that
I commit to you soon
Tongue kiss me
Everytime you see
We step inside a room
Straight out the hood
We promise to be good
To each other
Plus I love you
So I know
You goin’ make
A good mother
Just try to understand
If I change a time
It’s only cause
I never owned
Anything that’s mine
So I’m tryin’
You can stay
With my momma
But keep the drama
To a low
Never call the police
I never call you
Bitch or hoe
We were all
Born hungry
In this world
Alone
Finally moved out
My mom’s house
And got a happy home
Chorus
[2Pac]
Let’s turn the house
Into a happy home
Finally moved out
My mom’s house
And got a happy home
Let’s turn this house
Into a happy home
(Huh)
Verse 2
[2Pac]
Born
Through hard times
Ghetto child of mine
I wonder
If you have to suffer
For your father’s crimes
To be honest
It’s a hard road
Just keep your faith
In God
Knowin’ you can star
Though
Look at him
Walkin’ and talkin’
A little child
With my eyes
And mouth
Father
Watch over little seeds
Help me
Guide them out
Had to change
My whole lifestyle
Married my
Baby’s momma
Made her
My wife now
I’m tryin’ hard y’all
Maybe in time
I’ll be a better man
Watchin’ the older couples
Handle it
Like veterans
Show me the meanin’
Of forever
And together we rise
If it would
Help our child grow
Live together
We die
Why
Question my love
It’s so easy to see
Without my family
All I’m left with
Is a shadow of me
After all the arguements
And the nights alone
Now it’s time
To live the good life
Inside a happy home
Outro
[2Pac]
Turn this house
Into a happy home
Finally got to live
The good life
Inside a happy home
Let’s turn this house
Into a happy home
A happy home
