Temperature is as far as the heat goes, people are haters cos im doing something good. Hate me dont hate the hood. It made me strong, you wouldn't last that long.

Tupac the son of the Black Panther, and Tupac the rider. Those are the two people inside of me. I was raised off those ideals.

Long live the rose that grew from the concrete when no one else ever cared!

You either ride with us, or collide with us.

The lesser the friends, the lesser the chances of betrayal.

My mother was a woman. A black woman. A single mother. Raising two kids on her own. So she was dark skinned. Had short hair. Got no love from nobody except for a group called the Black Panthers. So that's why she was a Black Panther.

I want there to be a life for the street element. Instead of we always getting shut out. Instead of defenseless, having power.
