Tupac: Resurrection Page #5

---

It was hard. It was hard

because she was my hero.

Not long ago in Oakland, California,

I was asked by a group of children

what to do if they were offered drugs.

And I answered, "Just say no."

I was broke. I didn't have enough

credits to graduate, so I dropped out.

I said, "I gotta get paid.

I gotta make a living."

I started selling drugs

for maybe two weeks.

The dude was like, "Give me my drugs

back," because I didn't know how.

The dope dealers used to look out

for me. They would give me money

and be like, "Don't get involved with

this. Get out there, do your dream."

So they was like my sponsors.

My dream was

to make a living rapping.

Just to make music

that was coming from my heart.

When I first started rapping, I needed

the money, and I had to work.

Yeah, sexy baby

Do the Humpty Hump

Do the Humpty Hump

Sexy baby

Do the Humpty Hump

Do the Humpty Hump

Do the Humpty Hump

Do the Humpty Hump

That was me.

For me to get paid, I had to go out in

bikini briefs and hop on top of this doll.

I was homeless.

That's what I had to do.

You have to work from one point

to go to another point.

I admire the work ethic.

Do the Humpty Hump

Do the Humpty Hump

Do the Humpty Hump

Just watch me do the Humpty Hump

Shock was responsible

for my success.

I'm the original two-tone,

big-nosed, skinny rapper.

Shock G.

Leila introduced me to Atron who

was managing Digital Underground.

He was like, "I'll send you to Digital

Underground. They're in the studio.

"Rap for Shock G on the spot.

If he like you, I'll pick you up."

I walked in and rapped.

He was like, "Good. You're in."

Boom, boom. "See you later."

And I left, walked out

of there like, "Dang."

Shock was like, "Come on the road.

Be my roadie. It ain't glamorous.

"You'll be working, meeting people."

I said, "Cool."

Off the road, he said, "I'm gonna pay

you and let you do 'Same Song'."

I did "Same Song".

Ever since, it's been on.

- Tupac, rock this

- I clown around when I hang

Around with the Underground

Girls who used to frown

Say I'm down when I come around

Gas me and when they pass me

They used to diss me

Harass me but now they ask me

If they can kiss me

Get some fame, people change

Wanna live their life high

Same song, can't go wrong

If I play the nice guy

Claiming fame must have changed

Now that we became strong

I remain, still the same

Because it's the same song

I look back with the greatest fondness.

Those were some of the best times.

Watch this one.

I'm gonna f*** you up.

I'm gonna f*** you up.

DJ Mark, "The 45 King"

This is your thing

Check out how we swing

Look at my ding-a-ling

And know that I am the king

A lyrical lunatic
