.:: The Rose That Grew From Concrete ::.
Did you hear about the rose that grew
from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature's law is wrong
it learned to walk with out having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping it's dreams,
it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete
when no one else ever cared.
~ Tupac Shakur ~
.:: And Tomorrow ::.
Today is filled with anger,
fueled with hidden hate.
Scared of being outkast,
afraid of common fate.
Today is build on tragedies
which no one want's to face.
Nightmares to humanity and morally disgraced.
Tonight is filled with Rage, violence in the air.
Children bred with ruthlessness cause no one at home cares.
Tonight I lay my head down
but the pressure never stops,
knowing that my sanity content when I'm droped.
But tomorrow I see change, a chance to build a new,
build on spirit intent of heart and ideas based on truth.
Tomorrow I wake with second wind
and strong because of pride.
I know I fought with all my heart to keep the dream alive.

.:: A Young Heart With An Old Soul ::.
A young heart with an old soul
How can there be peace?
How can I be in the depths of solitude
When there are two inside of me?
This duo in me causes the perfect opportunity
To learn and live twice as fast As those who accept simplicity...
~ Tupac Shakur ~
.:: In The Event Of My Demise ::.
In the event of my demise
when my heart can beat no more,
I hope I die for a principle or a belief that I had lived 4.
I will die before my time,
because I feel the shadow's depth.
So much I wanted 2 accomplish before I reached my death,
I have come 2 grips with the possibility
and wiped the last tear from my eyes.
I loved all who were positive, In the event of my Demise
~ Tupac Shakur ~
.:: I Cry ::.
Sometimes when I'm alone I Cry, cause I am on my own.
The tears I cry are bitter and warm,
they flow with life but take no form.
I cry because my heart is torn,
I find it difficult to carry on.
If I had an ear to confide in,
I would cry among my treasured friend,
but who do you know that stops that long,
to help another carry on.
The world moves fast and it would rather pass you on by,
then to stop and see what makes one cry, so painful
and sad. ...And sometimes... I cry and no one cares about why.
~ Tupac Shakur ~
.:: Ambition Over Adversity ::.
Take one's adversity,
learn from their misfortune,
learn from their pain.
Believe in something,
believe in yourself.
Turn adversity into ambition,
Now blossom into wealth.
~ Tupac Shakur ~
.:: Can You See The Pride In The Panther ::.
Can you see the pride in the panther,
As he grows in splendor and grace.
Topling obstacles placed in the way,
of the progression of his race.
Can you see the pride in the panther,
as she nurtures her young all alone.
The seed must grow,
regardless of the fact that it is planted in stone.
Can you see the pride in the panthers,
as they unify as one.
The flower blooms with brilliance
and outshines the rays of the sun.

When Ur Hero Falls
when ur hero falls
when ur hero falls, so do the stars
Tupac Shakur
when ur hero falls from grace
all fairy tales are uncovered
myths exposed & pain magnified
the greates pain discoverd
you taught to be stong
but im confused to see u so week
you said never give up
and it hurts to see u welcome defeat
and so does the perception of tomorrow
without my hero, there only
me alone to deal with my sorrow
ur heart ceases to work
and all ur soul isnt happy at all
what r u expected to do
when ur only hero falls?
