PicKeD bY a LiLy

LiL picked some crazy poems by Tupac, and the least I an do is post them.. . .
Pac will never die, cuz just like Che said, you can never kill me cuz I'll return a million times in a million other poeple.

GOD
By: 2pac
when I was alone and had nothing
I asked 4 a friend 2 help me bear the
pain no one came except...GOD

when I needed a breath 2 rise
from my sleep no one could
help me except....GOD

when all i saw was sadness
and I needed answers no one
heard me except....GOD

so when I am asked who I
give my unconditional love 2
look for no other name
except.....GOD!

gyeah!!

No-Win

Backed into a corner
alone and very confused
Tired of running away
My manhood has been abused
Not my choice 2 be so blunt
But you must fight fire with flame
I allowed myself 2 run once
and was haunted by the shame
if I must kill I will and if I must do it again
I would but the situation is a no-win

-Tupac

*sigh* . . . . damn.. . . . . who can relate? ? ?. ... .

Life Through My Eyes

Life through my bloodshot eyes
would scare a square 2 death
poverty, murder, violence
and never a moment 2 rest
Fun and games R few
but treasured like gold 2 me
cuz i realize that I must return
2 my spot in poverty
But mock my words when I say
my heart will not exitst
unless my destiny comes through
and puts an end to all of this

- Tupac

Tupac.. . one love.. . I hope all of you are feelin this. It's complex, but if you feel it you know.

Under The Skies Above

ReaL DeaL ruLe DuaL

Reality is reality
But once inspected a duality
I’m trapped like a man
On top of a mountain
That can’t climb down
has anyone found him
I’m free like a fish
I school
and I wish
The dish had no hook
As I look at the worm
I burn and I spurn
But try to calm down
I’m chilled and relaxed
I’m killin this frown
Get rid of this crown
I’m just as equal as the most poor in my town
Which equals that a lot of people of livin upside down

Black Humans who got lynched
Have been on the news …….re-cently
Billie Holiday
Say
strange fruit sway
Hangin from……. a-tree
Re-pubz runnin wild with
Malicious mo-ney
Free trade
Enslave
And forces people to cave
And sell their own life
Just to save their own life
How many people must march
Before their life can start
Can you feel my heart deflate
Under all this great weight
I have to regress into my head
or this process’ll leave me dead
I works with my hand
For me and my fellow man
Write when you can
It’s just a move of the hand
I use to pray and pray and pray a lot
And then I stopped
But it’s not like I forgot
It was just too much
Too hot
To speak to our GOD
He hears and He heals
He knows my deep thought
I’m His soldier of peace
He’s all that I got
Yet I believe in my name
It was vainness I fought
And continue to fight
As my sight gets blurred
And intentions are inferred
Plastic pop people penetrate
Pen and paper
Right rips thru like light lit
A little later
After the rich switch has been
Broken n turned off
Cough cough pass
And the masses will collect
Open your mind n remind
Who forget
Set your mind clean
And everyone join a team

A Different Love

So here is another poem that Tupac wrote, and he writes it to some girl named Elizabeth. A lot of his poetry and lots of his lyrics are totally personal and directly spoken to one person, it’s hard to say what he meant exactly and what his message was, but because of his personal writing, he touches everyone on a different level and his art gets interpreted by all. You know on the song Thugz Mansion from his album Better Dayz, his last verse is:

Dear momma don't cry,
your baby boy's doin good
Tell the homies I'm in heaven
and they ain't got hoods
Seen a show with Marvin Gaye last night,
it had me shook
Drinkin peppermint Schnapps,
with Jackie Wilson,
and Sam Cooke
Then some lady named Billie Holiday
Sang sittin there kickin it with Malcolm,
'til the day came
Little LaTasha sho' grown
Tell the lady in the liquor that she's forgiven,
so come home
Maybe in time you'll understand
only God can save us
When Miles Davis cuttin lose with the band
Just think of all the people that you knew in the past
that passed on,
they in heaven,
found peace at last
Picture a place that they exist,
Together
There has to be a place better than this,
in heaven
So right before I sleep,
dear God,
what I'm askin
Remember this face,
save me a place,
in thug's mansion

AaaWw, this is one of my favorite songs, ever since the first time I heard it. I can listen to this song all day and still get shivers down my spine every time. But back to what I was saying about how his lyrics are dedicated right out to someone. You would have to know about LaTasha or the lady at the liquor store to know what’s up. I guess LaTasha died at a young age and that lady must have done something pretty bad and then wasn’t forgiven by her community, and maybe not even by herself. I still don’t fully understand the healing power of Tupac’s words, but it’s there. He was most definitely touched by GOD at some point in his life. Quite young probably… .. oh, and on the same deal what does B.S.A. stand for? ? ?

E L I Z A B E T H
A different Love……………..from B.S.A.

I RememBeR WheN U were LOST
and your soul was iN the wiND
IT was at this awkward moment
That u and I Became friends
But Then your soul was found
and U discovered celibacy
But with this U forgot about me
and our Bond was a memory
And NOW I C U felt it
the Bond we made Before
I pray 2 GOD it stands
And severs never more
- Tupac

MaD, mAd cReW uP iN tHe hOuSe

Thank you Lily, you really made me smile. I’ve been takin my time putting posts up this site hasn’t been abandoned, I just haven’t had any drive to put work into it. That combined with that I just moved out a couple months ago and I don’t have a computer at home, so it’s hard to stay dedicated when you have to go way outta your way to use a computer. But the time is here and I’m feelin ripe with thoughts and enthusiasm. I had an amzain 4 day weekend this last thrusday to sunday. And ya know.. .. things have got to change!! I’ve got lots to talk about and the world needs every voice. Thanks lots for the latest comments. I’ll keep it commin… . here’s some Blastmaster KRS One for all you hip hop heads and especially dedicated to the Bronx and everyone in NY! ! !

Yo make some noise! !
Is the Bronx in the muthafuckin house? ? ! ! ! !
IS THE BRONX IN THE MUTHAFUCKIN HOUSE? ? ! ! ! !

Twinkle, twinkle to the little rap star
I got all type of MC tongue in a pickle jar
So here's a quick freestyle to my target:
My core audience,
*fuck* the rest of the market!
'Cause I spark it,
styles I loanshark it
Then break your legs if you try to chart it
I got heart, it
Doesn't take a lot to rock a record,
get wit it
Some MCs can't rock for five minutes
Sorry,
that's not the way to approach me
Use caution
I rip up lyrical crews and MCs often
You probably don't know this:
I give birth to MCs
And I also give abortions
I'll do a number to your body structure
You look like supper
And I'm that hungry motherfucker!
You don't wanna be on the menu!
I'll end you,
twist you up and bend you
Like Gestapo
Pick up the microphone and crush up MC like a taco
No, we're never sad because we nah deal with sorrow
That's why dem challenge me,
jah man you know dem challenge trouble
Me are number one of me there is no double!
And you don't want no trouble
'Cause Blastmaster KRS is flashin' lyrics on the double

I got the:
Mad, mad crew up in the house
I'm wit the:
Mad, mad crew up in the house
I be chillin' wit the:
Mad, mad crew up in the house
I'm rollin' wit the:
Mad, mad crew up in the house

- KRS One in the song ‘Mad Crew’
