Dear mama, yo baby boys doing fine tell the homies I'm in heaven and they aint got hoods.
Tupac ShakurI exist in the depths of solitude pondering my true goal Trying 2 find peace of mind and still preserve my soul
Tupac ShakurThe thing that bothers me is that it seems like all the sensitive stuff I write just goes unnoticed . . . the media doesn't get who I am at all. Or maybe they just can't accept it. It doesn't fit into those negative stories they like to write. I'm the kind of guy who is moved by a song like Don McLean's "Vincent," that one about Van Gogh. The lyric on that song is so touching. That's how I want to make my songs feel. Take "Dear Mama" - I aimed that one straight for my homies' heartstrings.
