“The seed must grow regardless of the fact that it’s planted in stone.” – Tupac Shakur After a year you’re just like: I’m picking the lock. After two, three weeks, it’s like: Give me the food Or I’m breaking down the door. After about a week that song is gonna change to: We hungry, we needsome food. Why did you lie to me? I couldn’t find a trace of equality.Įvery day, I’m standing outside trying to sing my way in: We are hungry, please let us in We are hungry, please let us in. One day I’m gonna bust, blow up on this society. All that love I gave didn’t mean nothing when it came to fear. I hate the man in the mirror cause his reflection makes the pain turn realer.įear is stronger than love, remember that. I’m not sayin’ I’m gonna rule the world, or that I’m gonna change the world, but I guarantee that I will spark the brain that will change the world.Ĭan’t close my eyes cause all I see is terror. And if he can’t learn to love you, you should leave him. And when he tells you you ain’t nothing, don’t believe him. I don’t see why everybody feel as though that they gotta tell me how to live my life.įorgive but don’t forget, girl keep your head up. That which does not kill me can only make me stronger. ![]() The greatest loss is what dies inside while still alive. It just matters that you didn’t save them.ĭeath is not the greatest loss in life. If you see everybody dying because of what you are saying, it don’t matter that you didn’t make them die. If we really are saying that rap is an art form, then we got to be more responsible for our lyrics. I just want to be someone who says, this is who I am, this is what I do, I say what’s on my mind. “Though things change, the future’s still inside of me.” – Tupac Shakur I’ve been shot five times but I’m still breathing, living proof there a God if you need a reason. Of course I’m going to say ‘I’m a thug,’ that’s because I came from the gutter and I’m still here! It seems like every time you come up something happens to bring you back down. But in my mind, I believe what I’m doing is right. So everything that I do that’s bad, I’m going to suffer from it. I believe that everything that you do bad comes back to you. There’s nobody in the business strong enough to scare me. Nobody raised me I was raised in this society. I might just be my mother’s child, but in all reality, I’m everybody’s child. My only fear is coming back reincarnated. This is how they made me and now I’m sayin’ what’s on my mind and they don’t want that. “I’d rather die like a man, than live like a coward.” – Tupac Shakur Don’t ask me why, thank God, and ask me how. Well, we are the roses, this is the concrete and these are my damaged petals. ![]() We wouldn’t ask why a rose that grew from the concrete for having damaged petals in turn, we would all celebrate its tenacity, we would all love its will to reach the sun. Life’s a wheel of fortune and it’s my chance to spin it. Somebody help me, tell me where to go from here cause even thugs cry, but do the Lord care? When you do rap albums, you got to train yourself. I never had that in my life.Īll I’m trying to do is survive and make good out of the dirty, nasty, unbelievable lifestyle that they gave me. I just don’t know how to deal with so many people giving me that much affection. You know how it is, only God can judge us. ![]() It’s a struggle for every young Black man. So no matter how hard it get, stick your chest out, keep ya head up and handle it. ![]() Through every dark night, theres a bright day after that. I know it seems hard sometimes but remember one thing. “For every dark night, there’s a brighter day.” – Tupac Shakur
