[Talking](sang)
This is Dedicated...(Dedicated) to my mama
Political prisoner, so called war on drugs (Dedicated)
Headed by this U.S. government...[U my worst enemy](Dedicated)
[I see you]...Uh, I`d ride for you [for pac dogg]
I`d roll for you, I`d die for you, it`s all for you
(Dedicated)

(sang)
The circle, can never, be broken, NoOooo (4x)
(Dedicated to whaaaaat)(4x)
(talking over singing)
I`d ride for you, I`d roll for you, I`d die for you, it`s all for you
U R ripping us apart
Shit`s, dedicated to crack, I dedicate it to that
Uh, Uh...before you came...Never...Never

{Echo}[Talking]
Before you came, the triangle never broke
{the triangle never broke}[Word Up]
We were melted, and bonded as one (one), ONE (Dedicated)
But as the two pushed you away {But as the two pushed you away}
The one got weak and embrassed you {One got weak and embrassed you}
[I seen it]
And now You R ripping us apart {And now you R ripping us apart} [Ripping us apart]

(sang)
(Dedicated to whaaaat) (2x) Dedicated to what (3x)
(Dedicated)

{Echo}[Talking]
The worst feeling, {The worst feeling of helplessness}
The greatest pain, has rested in my heart {has rested in my heart}
The vision of heaven fades {The vision of heaven fades} (Dedicated)
And the nightmare of loneliness has started {And the nightmare of loneliness has started} [You started it, I`ma finish it]
My hero has been defeated by you {My hero has been defeated by you}
And now what can I do {And now what can I do} [Whatchew want me to do]
Watch as you destroy us? {Watch as you destroy us} [Uh-huh, Uh]
And our love is finally through? {And our love is finally through} [No]

(sang, repeated over next verse until 2:38)
The circle, can never, be broken, NoOooo
[Dedicated to what, dedicated to crack]

{Echo}
I know the worst is here {I know the worst is here}
I feel it in my heart {I feel it in my heart}
U got in the circle {U got in the circle}
Now you`re tearing Us apart!!! {Now you`re tearin Us Apart!!}

(talking)
Dedicated to what (repeated over and over)
Dedicated to who
Dedicated to Pac
Opposite of crack, fight back
(Dedicated)
(Dedicated to whaaaat)(4x)
(Dedicated)
(Dedicated)
