[2pac]
What's up boo
Ha ha ha ha Yeah
Another shady mission Tricks
Like watching pictures in hazy vision
Tonight is love making
Take you any place you wish
Today we satisfy
Yesterday was stolen kisses
Blind insanity perfect
pictures of me and my family
Not understanding the destiny,
that they planned for me
If I have kids will I live to see em grow?
Though I don't know, I live
the life of a thug nigga
until the day I go
More broken promises, a sacred bond broken
I know I'll die alone, but yet
and still I'm hoping
Visions of prisons, maybe I'll be forgiven
I know it's better in heaven cause
being here ain't living
Close my eyes and see nothing but
pain the world's crazy
Still look for a queen to plant
seeds and have babies
Maybe I'll be the one, or
just maybe I'm lost
You'll never know being cautious
If you play your cards right

[Chorus x2: Keyisha Cole] Baby
I want to be the one who, who
you can depend on who
Who'll be the one who'll be
there (Be the one who'll be there) Oh baby
Down by the water we will, be
there till the morning
We won't, leave until the
night and we will, be forever more

[Keyshia Cole]
No one else can do
What you do, for me
Take me away from the pain, I
feel, inside (I feel inside)
And it's gonna be all Right, it will be okay
If we try, and take our time
Please baby, take your time
And we'll grow, trust I know

[2pac talking]
You gotta play your cards right
Can't be rushing like it's a race
you know what I'm saying?
If you be patient, and you take your time
And you finesse it
Nine times out of ten homeboy
your gonna wake up with your
breakfast in bed
But if you rush
Then you'll just be man handling Ha ha
Play your cards right nigga
Take your time
Be patient
It's better that way Ha ha
Play your cards right

[Chorus]

Take your time man
Don't be in such a rush Ha ha
You got to be patient man, be patient
Ha ha ha ha
It ain't going nowhere boy Ha ha
Get some champagne
Bring some roses or something you know?
Play some soft shit
You got to be cool with it
You got to be slow with it
Got to be patient
You got to play your cards right homeboy
You can't be rushing like
it's a race you know what
I'm saying?
If you be patient and you take your time
And you finesse it
