How long will they mourn me. Yeah this is for my nigga Kato, it's still on nigga. Thug Life, thugs for life. Ha ha yeah, how long will they mourn me. Yeah nigga. 2Pac in this mothafucka.
Verse 1 (Tupac)
All my homies drinking liquor, tears in everybody's eyes. Nigga cried to mourn a homies homicide, but I can't cry, instead I'm just a shoulder. Damn, why they take another soldier. I load my clip before my eyes blurry, don't worry, I'll get them suckas back before your buried (shit). Retaliate and pull a 187, do real niggas get to go to heaven? How long will they mourn me, bury me a muthafukin' 'G'. Bitch don't wanna die then don't fuck with me. It's kinda hard to be optimistic, when your homies lying dead on the pavement twisted. Y'all don't hear me though, I'm trying hard to make amends but I'm losing all my muthafuckin' friends (damn). They should have shot me when I was born, now I'm trapped in the muthafuckin' storm. How long will they mourn me?
Chorus (Tupac and Nate Dogg)
I wish it would have been another. How long will they mourn me. How long will they mourn my brother (Got them niggas all dead and shit). How long will they mourn me. I wish it would have been another. How long will they mourn me. How long will they mourn my brother (Gotta keep this shit goin' on, yo Syke).
Verse 2 (Syke)
How long will they mourn me. Every muthafuckin' day homie, you stayed down when the other niggas didn't know me. From my heart to the trigga you my fuckin' nigga, and things won't be the same without ya nigga. I remember kickin' back, you wanted to lack and goin' half on a muthafuckin' hundred sack. Smokin' blunt after blunt and steady drinkin'. Hung around so much, you knew what I was thinkin'. Tell me Lord why you take big Kato? So confused not knowing which way to go. I'm goin' crazy and runnin' out of fuckin' time, I can't take it, I'm losin' my fuckin' mind. So day after day, ride after ride, we'll hook up on the other side. Watch over your family and your newborn, till we meet again homie. How long will they mourn me.
Chorus (Tupac and Nate Dogg)
I wish it could have been another (Yo Kato). How long will they mourn me (it's still on nigga). How long will they mourn my brother. How long will they mourn me. I wish it would have been another (yeah). How long will they mourn me. How long will they mourn my brother (Rated R, Double Jeopardy, mack 10).
Verse 3 (Rated R)
Damn a nigga tired of feeling sad, I'm tired of putting in work, I'm tired of cryin' while watching my homies leave the earth. I know soon one day I'll be in the dirt, and my peoples'll be mournin' when they get a call from the coroner. All niggas can say is that's fucked up and get tossed up, reminiscing how we grew up (my nigga). Rest and love to my nigga Kato, see you in the crossroads real soon, for now let me pour out some brew. I'll be always thinkin' of ya homie. Rest in peace. How long will they mourn me? Ya know my life's a fuckin' trip and everybody's gotta go. But why the fuck it have to be my nigga Kato. Another nigga fell victim to the chrome. It's enough to make you crazy. It's fuckin' with my dome. Ya only live once on this earth. A nigga had it bad, since the day of my muthahfuckin' birth. But niggas say they down and they always be my homie. But when a nigga gone how long will you mourn me?
Chorus (Tupac and Nate Dogg)
Yeah! I wish it would have been another (mack 10 in this muthafucka). Yeah! How long will ya mourn me. How long will ya mourn my brother (Thug Life boy, Nate blowin' that shit, Nate Dogg do that shit nigga). I wish it would have been another. Yeah! How long will ya mourn me. How long will they mourn my brother. (This for my nigga Kato and all his kids). How long will ya mourn me. I wish it would have been another. How long will ya mourn my brother.
