More quotes by Tupac Shakur
No thank you to all the bustas, cowards, and FAKE HOMIES who showed me the depths of jealousy, envy and greed.
Tupac Shakur
Measure a man by his actions fully from the beginning to the end. Don’t take a piece out of my life or a song out of my music and say this is what I’m about because you know better than that.
Tupac Shakur
It's the game of life. Do I win or do I lose? One day they're gonna shut the game down. I gotta have as much fun and go around the board as many times as I can before it's my turn to leave.
Tupac Shakur
Questions for the lord, why he don't like me, guard my soul, Though my life was hard with no remorse.
Tupac Shakur
That's what I am, America's nightmare. I am what you made me, the hate and evil that you gave me.
Tupac Shakur
I'm the rebel totally going against the grain. I always want to do the extreme. I want to get as many people looking as possible.
Tupac Shakur
We ain't meant to survive, cause it's a setup, And even though you're fed up, Huh, ya got to keep your head up.
Tupac Shakur
If that's what the court can do, then punish me more then I've been punished already.
Tupac Shakur
All B.S. aside, it all comes down to... we got to survive. I mean, even warriors put their spears down on Sundays. We got to survive here in this country... 'cause I'm not going back to Africa. We got to survive here. And for us to survive here-White folks, Black folks, Korean folks, Mexican folks, Puerto Ricans-we got to understand each other.
Tupac Shakur
Revenge is like the sweetest joy next to gettin' pussy.
Tupac Shakur
I ain't calling me God. I'm just doing my part on where I think hip hop should go. I think hip hop should be about more money, crazier sounds, different beats.
Tupac Shakur
Role is something people play, model is something people make, both of those things are fake.
Tupac Shakur
If I win and get the money, then the Oakland Police department is going to buy a boys' home, me a house, my family a house, and a Stop Police Brutality Center.
Tupac Shakur
Somebody help me, tell me where to go from here cause even Thugs cry, but do the Lord care?
Tupac Shakur
I ain't racist but lets trade places.
Tupac Shakur
Dear mama, yo baby boys doing fine tell the homies I'm in heaven and they aint got hoods.
Tupac Shakur
Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots
Tupac Shakur
God damn! Drug dealers dealin' to the kiddies, Livin' in the city ain't no pity on the itty-bitty. We try to cry, but still they all die, I try to speak to the youth, and the truth is: they all high.
Tupac Shakur
Some say they expect Illuminati take my body to sleep.
Tupac Shakur
My music is not for everyone. It's only for the stong-willed, the [street] soldiers music. It's not like party music- I mean, you could gig to it, but it's spiritual. My musi is spiritual. It's like Negro spiituals, except for the fact that I'm not saying 'We shall Overcome.' I'm saying that we are overcome.
Tupac Shakur
