Tupac (Dedicated to Tupac Amaru Shakur.")

Born behind bars in a prison,
and that's how he was risen.
Born in a cage behind bars like an animal,
and not a mammal.
The day of June 16,1971 was the day he took his first breath,
and wish it was his death.
He was born black, and in prison,
so basically he was born with two strikes,
and all eyes on him seeing when hes going to strike out!
The year was 1996 and he stroke out at bat,
and all turn dark, lights out.
He was born with two personalities,
red in his eyes,despair in his face,
and unhappiness in his heart.
Not being raise as a black man to express his thought.
But did he ever change that.
He's a strong, fast and proud black panther,
He now speak loud with no regret,
and full of courage.
He's the leader for an army of one,
One Nations.
His name Tupac Amaru means his a shinning serpent,
and not a servent to anyone.
And Shakur means thankful to GOD.
He's the son of Jesus and thankful.
Raise by an only mother with no father,
not having a home at times,
But living in shelters.
From New York, to Baltimore, to Cali,
he only hung out in allies.
He was raise to kill or be killed.
That's why he decided not to feel.
he made sure he died being heard,
and leaving a legacy for centuries.
he loved all who was positive,
and that's how he lived.
He's a strong black rose that grow from the toughest concrete,
He's a miracle in reality.
Was he truly place six feet under,
or did he pull a micaveli and fake his death.
