One of my favorite songs of all time, and one of 2pac's greatest to me.....Such raw emotion, paranoia, anger and a glimmer of hope for a change, shows that street shyt perfectly, so hard to recapture in any other artist. That kind of frantic and hectic life, when he says 'roll up a perfect blunt and let me spark it wit ya, rolling with a posse full of paranoid drug dealers to the end my friend....I'm seeing nothing but my dreams coming true, while I'm staring at the world thru my rearview'....Those lines hit you right in the heart, through all the blunt smoke and the blur of the drugs and the fast life....At 16-17 I felt like Pac spoke right to me, the power of music to transcend time and age and location and just speak for YOU..thats Pac's brilliance.....I would be passenger in my boys civic racing and whipping down the street at night, high as fukk and just feeling that anger and sense of hopelessness.....and I play that to this day....
'heavenly father I'm a soldier...I'm getting high cuz the worlds getting colder.....'
