Lyrics:
[2PAC]
Cause I hate to spend
My life, my life, my life, my life (Lost Souls)
Duckin’ one-time!
How it start, how it start
[Verse 1 – 2PAC]
Started off with, running from copses duck and hide from helicopters
We open fire, who can stop us
Living the life of trife juveniles, hoping for righteous
Gettin’ twenty-five to life, if the judge don’t like us
In my clearest pictures, I see authorities itchin to get us
ATF state feds scandalous bitches
I wasn’t promised to it, wasn’t bitter or sweet
See if a, nigga don’t hustle then the nigga don’t eat
Only streets livin’ do or die circle complete
Repetitive motions and felons in the rush for cheese
Please understand my history a man of many acts
Living Thug Life, coming equipped, with many gats
Maybe I was just a Lost Soul, trapped in time
Livin’ in between life, and the cracks were blind
Even though we had hope for dreams that never came
Yet and still we all feel pain
[Chous – 2PAC/Outlawz]
Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
Cause I hate to spend, my life, my life, my life, my life
Duckin’ one-time! Stranded in the County in the worst way
Hell of a way to spend my twenty-first birthday
Born in the ghetto as a street thug
It’s for the neighborhood and weed spots that we love
Lost Souls…
Lost Souls nigga, for my homeboys that passed on
Words from the mind of a Lost Soul
Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
Cause I hate to spend, my life, my life, my life, my life
Duckin’ one-time!
[Verse 2 – Young Noble]
My brother Sean, first on my list, he stuck with
a three-five when he get out would I be dead or alive (alive!)
He taught me the rules so much, but still In Thugs I Trust
When in danger never hesitate to keep my fucking trap shut
My Mom Dukes got a little bit of Thug in her (Thug in her!)
The Devil loves sinners crackheads and drug dealer (drug dealers!)
Sometimes I feel like the streets are taking over
Never stayin sober, the brain over and (dear god!) over backtrack
My stack’s fat, I used to take new
One love to my crew aiyyo this one’s for you
[2PAC]
R.I.P., rest in peace to Moo Brown
Know what we gotta do baby, one-time
[Chorus – 2PAC/Outlawz]
Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
Cause I hate to spend, my life, my life, my life, my life
Duckin’ one-time!
Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
Cause I hate to spend, my life, my life, my life, my life
Duckin’ one-time!
One-time! One-time! One-time!
[Verse 3 – E.D.I. Mean]
I was born twenty-two years ago, yesterday
But see I saw no reason for me to celebrate, let me demonstrate
Entered the world from out a poisonous womb
Heroin being consumed already predicitin my doom, soon
to be one of the many misguided
Always the first one on the block to be done tried it and liked it
Lost before I had a chance to find my way
Now I travel through life, not knowing the time of day
Crime for pay, I’m on my way, but don’t know, where I’ma end up
I swear to God, it’s just a setup
And these are the words from the mind of a Lost Soul (I’m a Lost Soul)
[Chorus – 2PAC/Outlawz]
Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
Cause I hate to spend, my life, my life, my life, my life
Duckin’ one-time!
Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
Cause I hate to spend, my life, my life, my life, my life
Duckin’ one-time!
Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
Cause I hate to spend, my life, my life, my life, my life
Duckin’ one-time!
Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
Cause I hate to spend, my life, my life, my life, my life
Duckin’ one-time!
Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
Cause I hate to spend, my life, my life, my life, my life
Duckin’ one-time!
Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
Cause I hate to spend, my life, my life, my life, my life
Duckin’ one-time!
Just wait until rain turn to sunshine
Cause I hate to spend, my life, my life, my life, my life
Duckin’ one-time!
