In the event of my demise
When my heart can beat no more
I hope I die for a principle
Or a belief that I had lived 4
I will die before my time
Because I feel the shadow's depth
So much I wanted 2 accomplish
Before I reached my death
I have come 2 grips with the possibility
And wiped the last tear from my eyes
I loved all who were positive
In the event of my demise
And Tomorrow
Today is filled with anger, fueled with hidden hate.
Scared of being outkast, afraid of common fate.
Today is built on tragedies which no one want's to face.
Nightmares to humanity and morally disgraced.
Tonight is filled with rage, violence in the air.
Children bred with ruthlessness cause no one at home cares.
Tonight I lay my head down but the pressure never stops,
Knowing that my sanity content when I'm dropped.
But tomorrow I see change, a chance to build a new,
Build on spirit intent of heart and ideas based on truth.
Tomorrow I wake with second wind and strong because of pride
I know I fought with all my heart to keep the dream alive.
I Cry
Sometimes when I'm alone, I Cry.
by Tupac Shukar
Cause I am on my own.
The tears I cry are bitter and warm.
They flow with life but take no form.
I cry because my heart is torn.
I find it difficult to carry on.
If I had an ear to confiding,
I would cry among my treasured friends,
But who do you know that stops that long,
To help another carry on.
The world moves fast and it would rather pass by,
Then to stop and see
What makes one cry, so painful and sad.
And sometimes....
I Cry
And no one cares about why.
The Fallen Star
They could never understand
How can there be peace?
by Tupac Shukar
What you set out to do
Instead they chose to
Ridicule you when you got weak
They loved the sight
Of your dimming
And flickering starlight
How could they understand what so intricate
To be loved by so many, so intimate
They wanted to see your lifeless corpse
This way you could not alter the course
Of ignorance they have set
To make my people forget
That they have done for much to long
To forget and carry on
I had loved you forever because of
Who you are
And now I mourn our fallen star.
by Tupac Shakur
How can I be in the depths of solitude
When there are two inside of me?
This duo in me causes the perfect opportunity
To learn and live twice as fast
As those who accept simplicity...
Young Niggaz
Now that I'm grown
The Rose That Grew From Concrete
Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete?
Ambition Over Adversity
Take ones adversity
A young heart with an old soul
Can You See the Pride In the Panther
by Tupac Shakur
I got my mind on bein' somthing
Don't wanna be anotha statistic out here doing nothin'
Tryin' to maintain in this dirty game
Keep it real and I will even if it kills me
My young niggaz stay away from these dumb niggaz
Put down the guns and have some fun nigga
by Tupac Shakur
Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk with out having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping it's dreams, it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else ever cared.
by Tupac Shakur
Learn from their misfortune
Learn from their pain
Believe in something
Believe in yourself
Turn adversity into ambition
Now blossom into wealth
In The Depths of Solitude
by Tupac Shakur
How can there be peace?
How can I be in the depths of solitude
When there are two inside of me?
This duo in me causes the perfect opportunity
To learn and live twice as fast
As those who accept simplicity...
by Tupac Shakur
As he grows in splendor and grace
Toppling obstacles placed in the way,
of the progression of his race.
Can You See the Pride In the Panther
as she nurtures her young all alone
The seed must grow regardless
of the fact that it is planted in stone.
Can You See the Pride In the Panthers
as they unify as one.
The flower blooms with brilliance,
and outshines the rays of the sun.
