Gangstas paradise... PAC woulda started the song just like that

He did :pachaha:


Original post had way more anecdotal info and speculation but I trimmed it down to the basics, you get the point though. Too many people shark content from The Coli so I kept the rest on deck...

I'm tired of living fukked up, tired of living bad/ Tired of getting where mama tell me "When you gon go to church, Chad?

What a nikka do/ what a nikka does
And a nikka is what a nikka was
And a nikka done read history but yet his eyes didn't see/ the only reason you a nikka cuz somebody else want you to be

Thinking of a master plan/
Cuz ain't nothing but sweat inside my hand

In two bars he could set the tone so perfectly. Pretty much every single song was an exercise in brevity whilst still maintaining high impact and total emotional coherency but the openings always caught your ear without even trying and let you know what was coming.

Pacs verses with the ground running each time and then took you on a flight.
Perfectly stated breh

I hear Brenda's got a baby. But Brenda's barely got a brain

Back in elementary, I thrived on misery. Left me alone I grew up amongst a dying breed

Now how can I explain how this game laced me, plus with this fame I got enemies do anything to break me, my attitude changed

I smoke a blunt to take the pain out and if I wasn't high, I'd probably try to blow my brains out

When I was young, me and my mama had beef. 17 years old, kicked out on the streets

I take a shot of Hennessy, now I'm strong enough to face the madness. Nickel bag full of cess weed laced with hash

My adversaries cry like hoes fully eradicate my foes. My lyrics explode on contact, gamin' you hoes

Perhaps I was blind to the facts, stabbed in the back. I couldn't trust my own homies, just a bunch of dirty rats

Are you confused? You wonder how it feels to walk a mile inside the shoes of a nikka who don't have a thing to lose

My family tree consists of drug dealers, thugs and killers. Strugglin', known to hustle screaming, "fukk they feelings!"

I wake up early in the mornin', mind state so military. Suckers fantasizin' pictures of a young brother buried

Pac was surgical with those opening bars

I just sent my bytch to Bora Bora, cost me 80 racks
