Tupac told me
through a t.v. screen
that I should be a real model
not some fake ass
role model that plays a
good character.
Tupac told me that
Fear is stronger than love
so when my parents
thought I was going to die
from getting high
It didn't matter that
I was their child
from the heavens above.
Tupac told me
not to be selfish
and to speak incase
that I spark a brain
bigger than me.
Tupac told me
that if I keep speaking
about the mess
that maybe someone
when I am dead and gone
will hear that and
do something.
Tupac told me
that the only thing
that could stop him
was death.
and even that
isn't true.
Tupac died in '93
and never met
the guys who would
come after him.
Tupac speaks
from the grave
and people
still, listen.
Tupac taught me
that art would live
forever.
and it would keep
inspiring people to
do something.
