You either pray or worry. Don't do both.

Sleep is for those people who are broke.

2Pac wrote about life threatening situations after being shot so often, it made it seem like he was obsessed with it. He even wrote music and material that he left behind after he died that made reference to him dying already. I think the significance in that ties back to us knowing that that's our fate.

When I nearly died it made me think – this can happen again any second. I better hurry and do what I want. I started to live like I never lived before. When the fear of death is gone, then nothing can bother you and nobody can stop you.

Look into the windows of my soul. The eyes never lie, they bloodshot red.

I can't have a lot of people around me all the time. It really bugs me out that I have that many people. I need to be by myself.

I was competitive in the ring and hip-hop is competitive too... I think rappers condition themselves like boxers, so they all kind of feel like they're the champ.
