How Do You Want It
2Pac & KC/Jo Jo Lyrics

How do you want it
In what way do you desire it?

How do you feel
What is your emotional state?

Comin' up as a Nigga in tha cash game
Rising as an African American in the world of money and power

Livin' in tha fast lane
Existing in a lifestyle of excitement and speed

I'm for real
I am genuine and sincere

Love tha way you agrivate your hips
Enjoy the way you move and tease with your hips

And push your ass out
And protrude your buttocks

Gotta nigga wantin'
Making a man desire you

It's so bad
It is intense and overwhelming

I'm about to pass out
I am on the verge of losing consciousness

Want to dig you
Desire to know you deeply

And I can't even lie about it
And I cannot deny it

Baby just eleviate your cloths
Baby, just remove your clothes to relieve the tension

Time to fly up out it
Time to escape from it

Catch you at a club
Encounter you at a club

Oh shit, you got me fiendin'
Oh, wow, you have me craving and longing

Body talken shit to me
Your body is communicating desires to me

But I can't comprehend the meaning
But I cannot understand the significance

Now if ya want to roll with me
Now, if you want to accompany me

Then here's ya chance
Then this is your opportunity

Doin 80 on tha freeway
Driving at a speed of 80 miles per hour on the highway

Wait police, catch me if they can
Wait for the police to chase and apprehend me if they can

Forgive me I'm a ridah
Forgive me, as I am a rider (someone living a fast-paced life)

Still I'm just a simple man
Nevertheless, I am only a straightforward individual

All I want is money
My only desire is wealth

Fuck tha fame
I do not care about fame

Mr. International
As an internationally recognized figure

Playa with tha passport
A player with a passport representing his global experiences

Just like Alladin bitch
Similar to the character Alladin, addressing a woman

Get you anything you ask for
Provide you with anything you request

It's either him or me
It's a choice between him and me

Champagne, Hennessy
Luxury drinks, symbolizing opulence

A favorite of my homies
Loved by my friends

When we floss on our enemies
When we show off our success to those who oppose us

Witness as we creep to a low speed
Observe as we move slowly and secretly

Peep what a ho need
Notice what a promiscuous woman requires

Puff some more weed
Smoke more marijuana

Funk, ya don't need
Problems, you do not need

Approachin' hochies with a passion
Approaching promiscuous women with intense desire

Been a long day
It has been a tiring day

But I've been drivin' by attraction
But I have been motivated by the allure

In a strong way
With great force and determination

Your body is bangin'
Your body is attractive and sexy

Baby I love it when ya flaunt it
Darling, I love it when you proudly display it

Time to give it to daddy nigga
Time to give it to me, daddy, a term of endearment

Now tell me how you want it...
Now, inform me of your desires and preferences

Tell me is it cool to fuck ?
Inform me if it is acceptable to engage in sexual activity?

You think I come to talk
Do you believe I came here to engage in conversation?

Am I a fool or what ?
Am I foolish or something?

Positions on tha floor
Different sexual positions on the ground

It's like erotic
It is similar to being sexually arousing

Ironic
Ironically

Cause I'm somewhat psychotic
Because I have some tendencies of mental instability

I'm hitten' switches on bitches
I am manipulating and controlling women

Like I been fixed with hydraulics
Similar to a car equipped with hydraulic systems

Up and down like a roller coaster
Moving in a fluctuating and exciting manner

Come up beside ya
Approach you from the side

I ain't quitin' till tha show is over
I will not stop until the performance is finished

Cause I'm a ridah
Because I live a fast-paced life

In and out just like a robbery
Entering and exiting similar to a criminal act

I'll probably be a freak
I will likely engage in unconventional sexual behavior

And let you get ontop of me
And allow you to be on a superior position during intercourse

Get her rockin' these
Energize and excite her sexually

Nights full of Alazhay
Nights filled with Alazhay, potentially referring to a drug-like experience

A livin' legend
A celebrated figure who is still alive

You ain't heard about these niggas played in cali days
You have not heard about the people who made a name for themselves in California

Deloris Tucker
Referring to Deloris Tucker, a politician known for her criticism of hip-hop music

You's a muthafucker
You are a despicable person

Instead of tryin' to help a nigga
Instead of attempting to assist a person

You destroy a brotha
You ruin a fellow African American

Worst than tha others
Worse than the rest

Bill Clinton
Referring to Bill Clinton, the former President of the United States

Mr. Bob Dole
Addressing Bob Dole, a former Republican presidential candidate

You too old to understand tha way tha game is told
You are too old to comprehend the way the system operates

Your lame
You are dull and uninteresting

So I gotta hit you with tha high facts
So I have to present you with the harsh reality

Won't someone listen ?
Is there no one who will pay attention?

Makin' millions
Earning millions of dollars

Niggas top that
No one can surpass or exceed that

They want to censor me
They desire to suppress my voice

They ratha see me in a cell
They would rather witness me imprisoned

Livin' in hell
Living in a state of misery

With only a few of us to live to tell
With only a small number of us to survive and share the story

Now everybody talken about us
Now everyone is discussing or gossiping about us

I could give a fuck
I do not care at all

I'd be tha first one to bomb and cuss
I would be the pioneer in causing destruction and expressing anger

Nigga tell me how you want it.....
Brother, inform me of your desires and preferences

Raised as a youth
Brought up as an adolescent

Tell truth
To speak honestly and sincerely

I got tha scoop on how to get a bulletproof
I have the inside information on acquiring protection from harm

Cause I jump on tha roof
Because I leap onto the roof

Before I was a teenager
Before I reached my teenage years

Mobile phone
A portable telephone

Skypager
A pager with the capability of receiving numeric messages

Game rules
Guidelines for engaging in the lifestyle

I'm livin' major
I am living an important and influential life

My advasaries
My opponents or enemies

Is lookin' worried
Appear anxious or concerned

They paranoid of getten' buried
They are fearful of being killed

One of us gonna see tha cemetery
One of us will end up in the graveyard

My only hope is survive
My only aspiration is to stay alive

If I wish to stay alive
If I desire to continue existing

Getten' high
Becoming intoxicated

See tha demons in my eyes
Observe the darkness and inner turmoil within me

Before I die
Before I perish

I want to live my life and ball
I desire to enjoy my life and achieve success

Make a couple million
Accumulate a few million dollars

And then I'm chillin'
And then I will relax

Fade'm all
Vanish or eliminate them all

These taxs for me crossed up
These taxes have got me confused and bothered

With people tryin' ta sue me
With individuals attempting to take legal action against me

Media is in my business
The media is meddling in my personal affairs

And they actin' like they know me
And they are behaving as if they are familiar with me

But I'ma mash out
But I will push through and overcome

Peel out
Accelerate or leave rapidly

I'm murder quick
I am extremely fast and efficient

That's with the whip'n fuckin' steel out
Referring to driving a vehicle while carrying a firearm

Yeah nigga, it's some new shit
Yes, my friend, it is something fresh and innovative

So better get up on it
So you should become knowledgeable about it

When ya see me
When you encounter me

Tell a nigga how ya want it
Inform a person about your desires and preferences

Raised as a nigga in tha cash game
Brought up as an African American in the world of money and power
