Lyrics2Pac:I never had much, ran with a bad bunchLittle skinny kid sneakin weed in my bag lunchAnd all through Junior High, we was just gettin byAnd drivebys robbed my homies of their young livesI never did cry, and even though I hadpain in my heart, I was hopeless from the startThey couldn't tell me nothin, they all tried to help toThe marijuana had my mind gone it wasn't healthyI travelled places, caught cases, what a ill yearI felt the pain and the rain but I'm still hereNever did like the police, let the whole world knowNow I gets no peace, cause they chasin me downAnd facin me now, what do I do?These thangs that a Thug goes throughAnd still I rise so keep ya head up, and make ya mind strongIt's a struggle every day but you gotta hold onChorus:They say that things just cannot growbeneath the winter snow,or so I have been told.They say were buried far,just like a distant starI simply cannot holdEminem:We're all we got in this worldWhen it spins, when it swirlsWhen it whirls, when it twirlsTwo little beautiful girlsLookin' puzzled, in a dazeI know it's confusing youDaddy's always on the move, mamma's always on the newsI try to keep you sheltered from it but somehow it seemsThe harder that I try to do that, the more it backfires on meAll the things growing up his daddy that he had to seeDaddy don't want you to see but you see just as much as he didWe did not plan it to be this way, your mother and meBut things have gotten so bad between usI don't see us ever being together ever againLike we used to be when we was teenagersBut then of course everything always happens for a reasonI guess it was never meant to beBut it's just something we have no control over and that's what destiny isBut no more worries, rest your head and go to sleepMaybe one day we'll wake up and this will all just be a dreamChorus:They say that things just cannot growbeneath the winter snow,or so I have been told.They say were buried far,just like a distant starI simply cannot hold2Pac:Dear momma don't cry, your baby boy's doin goodTell the homies I'm in heaven and they ain't got hoodsSeen a show with Marvin Gaye last night, it had me shookDrippin peppermint Schnapps, with Jackie Wilson, and Sam CookeThen some lady named Billie HolidaySang sittin there kickin it with Malcolm, 'til the day cameLittle LaTasha sho' grownTell the lady in the liquorstore that she's forgiven, so come homeMaybe in time you'll understand only God can save usWhen Miles Davis cuttin lose with the bandJust think of all the people that you knew in the pastthat passed on, they in heaven, found peace at lastPicture a place that they exist, togetherThere has to be a place better than this, in heavenSo right before I sleep, dear God, what I'm askinRemember this face, save me a place, in thug's mansionChorus:They say that things just cannot growbeneath the winter snow,or so I have been told.They say were buried far,just like a distant starI simply cannot hold
