2Pac

In the event of my Demise

when my heart can beat no more

I hope I die for a principle

or a belief that I had lived 4

I will die before my time

Because I feel the shadow's depth

so much I wanted 2 accomplish

Before I reached my death

I have come 2 grips with the possibility

and wiped the last tear from my eyes

I loved all who were positive

In the event of my Demise!

I put the pistol to my head, and say a prayer

I see visions of me dead, Lord are you there?

Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete?

Proving nature's laws wrong, it learned to walk without having feet.

Funny, it seems to by keeping it's dreams; it learned to breathe fresh air.

Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else even cared.
