[Intro: 2Pac]
~#**************#~
Stand in formation, my motherfuckin real troopers
~#**************#~
Lets do it like soldiers – all and together now!
~#**************#~
Ready? Hell yeah, yall niggas better get ready
~#**************#~
No retreat, no surrender, death before dishonor motherfucker!
~#**************#~
Do it to em, cmon never die thuggish, uhh – YES YES YES
~#**************#~
Say what? (Eastside, Westside ride) Where ya at, where ya at?
~#**************#~
Where my real thugs, where ya at, where ya at?
~#**************#~
Where my real thugs, where ya at, where ya at?
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
Hehehe, send cases to the drug dealer
~#**************#~
Real thugs, where ya at? You motherfuckin home
~#**************#~
Do it to em, do it to em
~#**************#~
They love the way we do it to em, we do it to em
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: 2Pac]
~#**************#~
Suppress the revolution a premeditated scheme
~#**************#~
Introduce a drug called crack to us ghetto teens
~#**************#~
Got a law for raw niggas, now, playa what it be like?
~#**************#~
When will niggas see they got us bleedin with three strikes?
~#**************#~
Cant seem to focus hopeless, with violent thoughts I wrote this
~#**************#~
Got these Devils petrified, hidin from my hocus-pocus
~#**************#~
And so I learned to earn my currency and over time
~#**************#~
Affiliated, clearly click of military minds
~#**************#~
May God forgive us though we dwell inside a paradox
~#**************#~
Thugged out and drug dealin, from the womb to the block
~#**************#~
My live mind got me survivin five rounds (shots)
~#**************#~
My forty-five got me fortified with live rounds
~#**************#~
When shits thick we plot hits, when my Glock spits
~#**************#~
All hail, out on bail, wrath of the 2Pacalypse
~#**************#~
Forever ghetto necessary picture food stamps
~#**************#~
Outlaw Thug Niggas never left the Boot Camp
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Cocoa Brovaz]
~#**************#~
[Tek]
~#**************#~
They called us for assignment, one of the squads finest
~#**************#~
Skills in guerilla warfare and blessed with refinement
~#**************#~
My rap sheet, contains sections of bomb sessions
~#**************#~
Says Im responsible for black Smif-N-Wessun
~#**************#~
Puttin likkle youts in a military state of mind
~#**************#~
Dangerous like chronic and yard when combined
~#**************#~
Cocoa Brovaz ‘pon de borderline
~#**************#~
Test de sound and ye dead same ti-ime
~#**************#~
[Steele]
~#**************#~
Man to man, Im facin the Devil with a plan
~#**************#~
Judo stance, first glance, Im makin my advance
~#**************#~
Animal instincts, intelligence of an assassin
~#**************#~
Masked men, ninjas that surround me, ready to attack
~#**************#~
I react swiftly, what father taught me sticks with me
~#**************#~
Never forget the method, stick and move strictly
~#**************#~
Shit be seemin like its closin in
~#**************#~
With no regrets I hold position
~#**************#~
Cause I suppose Im one of the chosen men
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: Buckshot]
~#**************#~
Picture being put in a position to move
~#**************#~
And you cant move cause your move is blocked by the knight
~#**************#~
At twelve oclock, thats when the madness begins
~#**************#~
So I start to focus in, my thoughts on the war
~#**************#~
Cause the rule is the law, and the law that we live by
~#**************#~
Is to stay true to self, in this case, BDI
~#**************#~
Why try if ya body lie
~#**************#~
By the block true soldier mentality, this is how we rock and roll
~#**************#~
(This is how we ride)
~#**************#~
[Boot Camp Clik]
~#**************#~
Stick and move, time to show em how to make a move
~#**************#~
Or get moved on, lets see who strong
~#**************#~
[Verse 4: Cocoa Brovaz]
~#**************#~
[Tek]
~#**************#~
In the gaze of the strange, where nothin stays the same
~#**************#~
Where new faces come through with similar game
~#**************#~
Now who you thought was them, really aint
~#**************#~
They catchin deja vus of the game people play
~#**************#~
Its a call for readjustment, fine tune yo position
~#**************#~
You slippin and trippin ‘stead of bobbin and dippin
~#**************#~
But never let this world of stress get the best of me
~#**************#~
Takin breathin techniques, slay you with Tai-Chi
~#**************#~
[Steele]
~#**************#~
What does it take, to get a break in the world of snakes
~#**************#~
And dose who fake
~#**************#~
Elimination Im facin destruction
~#**************#~
Outlawed, so I duck and down, fo-fo is bustin, no one to trust in
~#**************#~
Rushin to the goal line
~#**************#~
Catch a nigga beat him treat him like he stole mine
~#**************#~
No swine Im a soldier, soldier I control mine
~#**************#~
Time to, take you, back into time – follow dis here
~#**************#~
[Verse 5: Buckshot]
~#**************#~
One way out, this black hole
~#**************#~
For this black soul, shit is outta control
~#**************#~
Im fightin for my position to be a fetus in this world Im enterin
~#**************#~
And my face is sentencin for repentance
~#**************#~
Before my body was fully formed into a human
~#**************#~
I was already consumin weed
~#**************#~
Cause my moms used to smoke back in the 70s
~#**************#~
Maybe thats why in the 90s I drop Gs when I drop degrees
~#**************#~
When I ease across the block with ‘Pac
~#**************#~
Got all yall niggas shocked
~#**************#~
You didnt think Boot Camp Clik would link, with a Outlaw mind?
~#**************#~
If you do you press rewind
~#**************#~
And you can peep guerilla tactics in every line
~#**************#~
[Outro: 2Pac]
~#**************#~
Yeah, and this is how we do it!
~#**************#~
Where my real thugs, where they at?
~#**************#~
Let me, see my real thugs, now where ya at?
~#**************#~

~#**************#~

~#**************#~

~#**************#~

~#**************#~
From the ghetto to the ‘burbs, know we meant, every word
~#**************#~
Where my SOLDIERS?, where my soldiers at
~#**************#~
Where my SOLDIERS?, where my soldiers at
~#**************#~
Put yo hand on the pistol, put yo pistols in the air
~#**************#~
Where my soldiers at?, where my soldiers at?
~#**************#~
Where my SOLDIERS?, where my soldiers at
~#**************#~
Where my SOLDIERS?, where my soldiers at

When Bob Dole and Delores Tucker wanna know
