Mama raised a hellraiser why cry, That's just life in the ghetto, do or die.
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
The only thing that can kill me is death, that's the only thing that can ever stop me, is death, and even then my music will live forever.

Well, the first two days in prison, I had to go through what life is like when you've been smoking weed for as long as I have and then you stop. Emotionally, it was like I didn't know myself.
Tupac Shakur
God come save the youth, Ain't nothin else to do but have faith in you, Dear Lord I live the life of a Thug, hope you understand Forgive me for my mistakes, I gotta play my hand.

Tupac Shakur
What people do for the struggle of power is madness.
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
Here's a message to the new borns, waiting to breathe: if you believe then you can achieve. Just look at me, against all odds 'though life is hard, we carry on, livin' in the projects, broke with no lights on. To all the seeds that follow me- protect your essence, born with less, but you still precious.
Tupac Shakur
Can't close my eyes cause all I see is terror I hate the man in the mirror Cause his reflection makes the pain turn realer
Tupac Shakur
Real eyes, realize, real lies.
Tupac Shakur
I know it seems hard sometimes but remember one thing. Through every dark night, there's a bright day after that. So no matter how hard it get, stick your chest out, keep ya head up.... and handle it.
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
I put the pistol by my head, and say a prayer. I see visions of me dead, Lord are you there?
Tupac Shakur
Went to church but don't understand it, they underhanded. God gave me these commandments, the world is scandalous.
