• "“During your life, never stop dreaming. No one can take away your dreams ” “My mama always used to tell me: 'If you can't find somethin' to live for, you best find somethin' to die for.” “I know it seems hard sometimes but remember one thing. "Through every dark night, theres a bright day after that. So no matter how hard it get, stick your chest out, keep ya head up.... and handle it.” “I set goals, take control, drink out my own bottle I make mistakes but learn from every one And when it's said and done I bet this brother be a better one If I upset you dont stress Never forget, that God isn't finished with me yet” "We talk a lot about Malcom X and Martin Luther King JR, but It's time to be like them, as strong as them. They were mortal men like us and everyone of us can be like them. I don't want to be a role model. I just want to be someone who says, this is who i am, this is what i do. I say what's on my mind." "I'm 100 percent original, and that's what got me here. My rap music is more understandable, slower. It tells a story. You can write a book on each of my thoughts." "If you walked by a street and you was walking a concrete and you saw a rose growing from concrete, even if it had messed up petals and it was a little to the side you would marvel at just seeing a rose grow through concrete. So way is it that when you see some ghetto kid grow out of the dirtiest circumstance and he can talk and he can sit across the room and make you cry, make you laugh, all you can talk about is my dirty rose, my dirty stems and how am leaning crooked to the side, u can't even see that I've come up from out of that." "You gotta make a change. Its time for us as a people to start making some changes, lets change the way we eat, lets change the way we live, and lets change the way we treat each other. You see the old way wasn't working so its on US, to do what we gotta do to survive." "I truly believe I've been blessed by God, and God walks with me." "If God wanted me to be quiet he would've never showed me what he does." Quotes from Tupac Amaru Shakur"
