More quotes by Tupac Shakur
It seems like every time you come up something happens to bring you back down.
Tupac Shakur
The only thing America respects is power and power concedes nothing. After the LA Riots, they tried to calm us down and nothing changed since.
Tupac Shakur
It's not like I idolize this one guy Machiavelli. I idolize that type of thinking where you do whatever's gonna make you achieve your goal.
Tupac Shakur
Everybody raps. We rap to make money. We do business. Ain't no other record company out there that sold as many records as we did.
Tupac Shakur
I don't understand how people can stand next to you one year,and next year, they cannot. They're going crazy, screaming. They can't take it that you're there. But last year I was in the same club,walking around,lonely like a motherfucker. Couldn't get a date or a dance. I was too skinny, too something, and now, He's just adorable. He's just, oh!
Tupac Shakur
Though are hands are chained like they are, they haven't taken music from us yet. So that's how I'll fight. People tell me don't quit like everyone else. I wont have no fear.
Tupac Shakur
Strugglin' and striving, that's how the dough come.
Tupac Shakur
I am being ripped off, because I've never lied to the press. Just as much truth I bring to my work, a journalist should bring that much truth to their work.
Tupac Shakur
Picture me inside the misery of poverty, no man alive has ever witnessed struggles ive survived, praying hard for better days promised to hold on me and my dogs aint have a choice but to hold on.
Tupac Shakur
And thats the way it was and thats the way the cookie crumbles
Tupac Shakur
Gotta start teaching the children that they can be just what they want to be, there's much more to life than poverty.
Tupac Shakur
We are being wiped off the face of this earth At an extremely alarming rate And even more alarming is the fact That we are not fighting back
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
The only time I have problems is when I sleep.
Tupac Shakur
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.
Tupac Shakur
Let me say for the record, I am not a gangster and never have been. I`m not the thief who grabs your purse. I`m not the guy who jacks your car. I`m not down with the people who steal and hurt others. I`m just a brother who fight back.
Tupac Shakur
If we're all saying that rap is an art form then we gotta be more responsible for our lyrics. If you see everybody dying because of what you're saying, it don't matter that you didn't make them die, it just matters that you didn't save them.
Tupac Shakur
Mama raised a hellraiser why cry, That's just life in the ghetto, do or die.
Tupac Shakur
I'm not a gangsta rapper. I rap about things that happen to me. I got shot five times. People was trying to kill me.
Tupac Shakur
Tupac the son of the Black Panther, and Tupac the rider. Those are the two people inside of me. I was raised off those ideals.
