More quotes by Tupac Shakur
Gangsta Rap is dead. I've moved on. And the raps that I'm rappin to my community shouldn't be filled with rage? They shouldn't be filled with same attrocities that they gave me? The media they don't talk about it, so in my raps I have to talk about it, and it seems foreign because there's no one else talking about it.
Tupac Shakur
I rap about fighting back. I make it uncomfortable by putting details to it. It might not have been politically correct but I've reached somebody They relating to me. They relate to the brutal honesty in the rap.

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
It's like if you plant something in the concrete and if it grow and the rose petal got all kinds of scratches and marks, you ain't gonna say, 'Damn, look at all the scratches and marks on the rose that grew from the concrete.' You're gonna be like, 'Damn, a rose grew from the concrete?'
Tupac Shakur
I don't know how to change the world but I know if I keep talking about how dirty it is out here, somebody gon clean it up.
Tupac Shakur
Imperfection is inherited, therefore we all sin, but fighting the war of sin is the greatest war of all because we all die in the end no matter how hard we fight.
Tupac Shakur
Cry later, but for now, let's enjoy the laughter.
Tupac Shakur
How many caskets can we witness before we see it's hard to live this life without God, so we must ask forgiveness.
Tupac Shakur
I don't have no fear of death. My only fear is coming back reincarnated.
Tupac Shakur
If a picture is worth a thousand words, photographers are worth a million.
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
No one knows my Struggle, they only see the Trouble. Not knowing it's hard to carry on when, No one loves you.
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
I'd rather die like a man, than live like a coward
Tupac Shakur
In my brain all I think about is fame.
