Tupac Shakur

It's time we stop worrying, and get angry you know? But not angry and pick up a gun, but angry and open our minds.

I'm down for you, so ride with me._x000D_ _x000D_ My enemies your enemies,_x000D_ _x000D_ Cause you ain't ever had a friend like me.

Life's a test, mistakes are lessons, but the gift of life is knowing that you have made a difference.

I'm not saying I'm gonna change the world, but I guarantee that I will spark the brain that will change the world.

I don't want to be a role model. 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.

All I'm trying to do is survive and make good out of the dirty, nasty, unbelievable lifestyle that they gave me.

Bury me smilin' with G's in my pocket, Have a party at my funeral let every rapper rock it Let the hoes that I used to know, from way before Kiss me from my head to my toe, Gimme a paper and pen so I can write about my life of sin, Couple bottles of gin, in case I don't get in.

Yo get a real job. Rappin doesn't pay the rent, I hate the studio cause that's where all my money went.

During your life, never stop dreaming. No one can take away your dreams

When you do rap albums, you got to train yourself. You got to constantly be in character.

No thank you to all the bustas, cowards, and FAKE HOMIES who showed me the depths of jealousy, envy and greed.

I gotta big mouth, I can't help it, I talk from my heart, I'm real, whatever comes comes. But my controversy problem, it's not my fault, I try to find my way in the world you know, I try to be somebody instead of just make money off of everybody. So I go down paths that haven't been traveled before and I usually mess up, but I learn, I come back stronger.

All the Hennessy and weed can't hide, the pain i feel inside, its like I'm living just to die.

Unless we share with each other we gotta start makin' changes

I can't give up. It's a rap thang. And I ain't goin back to the crack game.

Suge is the boss of Death Row, the don, you understand? But im the underboss, the capo. That's my job to what's best for Death Row

I never killed anybody, I never raped anybody, I never committed no crimes that weren't honorable.

God damn! Drug dealers dealin' to the kiddies,_x000D_ _x000D_ Livin' in the city ain't no pity on the itty-bitty._x000D_ _x000D_ We try to cry, but still they all die,_x000D_ _x000D_ I try to speak to the youth, and the truth is: they all high.

With all my fans I got a family again.

Hip Hop was supposed to be this new thing that had no boundaries and was so different to everyday music. As long as it has soul to it, hip hop can live on.

Be an individual, work hard, study, get your mind straight, and trust nobody.
