For Pac it's Hold Ya Head no doubt. nikkas mention the cliche Pac songs like Ambitionz, Hail Mary, California Love etc when referencing Pac

but this is quintessential Tupac Shakur



Verse 3:

God bless the child that can hold his own
indeed, enemies bleed when I hold my chrome

Let these words be the last to my unborn seeds
Hope to raise my young nation in this world of greed

Currency means nothin if you still ain't free
Money breeds jealousy, take the game from me

I hope for better days, trouble comes naturally
Runnin' from authorities 'til they capture me

And my aim is to spread mo' smiles than tears
Utilize lessons learned from my childhood years

Maybe Mama had it all right, rest yo' head
Tradin' conversations all night, bless the dead

To the homies that I used to have that no longer roll
Catch a brother at the crossroads

Plus nobody knows my soul, watchin' time pass
Through the glass of my drop-top Rolls; hold ya head!
