Shakur was born in New York City to parents who were both political activists and Black Panther Party members. Raised by his mother, he relocated to Baltimore in 1984 and to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1988. With the release of his debut album 2Pacalypse Now in 1991, he became a central figure in West Coast hip-hop for his conscious rap lyrics. Shakur achieved further critical and commercial success with his follow-up albums Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z... (1993) and Me Against the World (1995). His Diamond certified album All Eyez on Me (1996), the first double-length album in hip-hop history, abandoned his introspective lyrics for volatile gangsta rap. In addition to his music career, Shakur also found considerable success as an actor, with his starring roles in Juice (1992), Poetic Justice (1993), Above the Rim (1994), Bullet (1996), Gridlock'd (1997), and Gang Related (1997).
During the later part of his career, Shakur was shot five times in the lobby of a New York recording studio and experienced legal troubles, including incarceration. In 1995, Shakur served eight months in prison on sexual abuse charges, but was released pending an appeal of his conviction. Following his release, he signed to Marion "Suge" Knight's label Death Row Records and became heavily involved in the growing East Coast–West Coast hip hop rivalry. On September 7, 1996, Shakur was shot four times by an unidentified assailant in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas; he died six days later. Following his murder, Shakur's friend-turned-rival, the Notorious B.I.G., was at first considered a suspect due to their public feud, but was also murdered in another drive-by shooting six months later in March 1997 while visiting Los Angeles.
Five more albums have been released since Shakur's death, all of which have been certified Platinum in the United States. In 2002, Shakur was inducted into the Hip-Hop Hall of Fame. In 2017, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility. Rolling Stone magazine ranked Shakur among the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.
Shakur was born on June 16, 1971, in the East Harlem section of Manhattan in New York City. While born Lesane Parish Crooks, at age one he was renamed Tupac Amaru Shakur. He was named after Túpac Amaru II, the descendant of the last Incan ruler, Túpac Amaru, who was executed in Peru in 1781 after his failed revolt against Spanish rule. Shakur's mother explained, "I wanted him to have the name of revolutionary, indigenous people in the world. I wanted him to know he was part of a world culture and not just from a neighborhood."
Shakur had an older stepbrother, Mopreme "Komani" Shakur, and a half-sister, Sekyiwa Shakur, two years his junior.

They got me feelin' crazier than a motherfucker
I got Bad Azz in this motherfucker
Puffin' on lye, hopin' that it get me high
Got a nigga goin' crazy
Oh yeah, I feel crazy
Hopin' that it gets me high
Got a nigga goin' crazy
Oh yeah, I feel crazy
(Tell 'em about it!)
Last year was a hard one, but life goes on
Bumpin' my head against the wall, learnin' right from wrong
They say my ghetto instrumental, detrimental to kids
As if they can't see the misery in which they live
Blame me for the outcome, ban my records, check it
Don't have to bump this, but please respect it
I took a minus and now the hard times are behind us
Turned into a plus, now they stuck livin' blinded
Hennessy got me feelin' bad, time to stop drinkin'
Rollin' in my drop-top Jag, what's that cops thinkin'?
Sittin' in my car, watch the stars and smoke
I came a long way, but still I got so far to go
Dear mama, don't worry, I'mma watch for snakes
Tell Setchu that I love her, but it's hard today
I got the letter that she sent me, and I cried for weeks
This what came out when I tried to speak, all I heard was
Time goes by, puffin' on lye
Hopin' that it gets me high
Got a nigga going' crazy
I feel crazy
Time goes by, puffin' on lye
Hopin' that it gets me high
Got a nigga goin' crazy
I feel crazy
(One, two, three, four)
I see Bloods and Crips runnin' up the hill
Lookin' for a better way
My brothers and sisters, it's time to bail
'Cause even thug niggas pray
Hopin' God hear me, I entered the game
Look how much I changed
I'm no longer innocent, casualties of fame
Made a lot of money, seen a lot of places
And I swear I seen a peaceful smile on my mama's face
When I gave her the keys to her own house, this your land
Your only son done became a man
Watchin' time fly, I love my people, do or die
But I wonder why we scared to let each other fly
June 1-6, '71, the day
Mama pushed me out her womb, told me, "Nigga, get paid!"
No one can understand me, the black sheep
Outcasted from my family, now packin' heat
I run the streets, a young runaway, live for today
When he died, I could hear him say (Thug Life, baby!)
Time goes by, puffin' on lye
Hopin' that it gets me high
Got a nigga goin' crazy
I feel crazy
Time goes by, puffin' on lye
Hopin' that it gets me high
Got a nigga goin' crazy
I feel crazy (Crazy)
God, help me out here, 'cause I'm possessed
I need the root of all evil for my stress
'Cause money's like a strong prescription drug
It's got me addicted to the pleasure and the pain it inflicted
Somethin' about the paper with the pictures of the president's head, damn,
It's like a motherfuckin' plague that spread
It's epidemic, forgotten, forgotten it got worse
I keep my head on straight, makin' money 'cause it's cursed
Makin' money makes a difference day by day
So I gotta stay paid, no doubt, day in and day out
This life is like a vicious cycle called fightin' to live
No matter how hard you try, it's in death, you gotta die
A lot of my peers didn't make it to the years to come
Did life doin' right or did life livin' dumb
Who has the answers? I wonder, I turn to my elders
They aged and experienced, but they can't even tell ya
Or tell me, that there'll be light at the end of the road
(Why?) 'Cause they don't even know
A million things run through my mind (Through my mind)
You ain't gotta be in jail to be doin' time
(You ain't gotta be in jail to be doin' time)
Time goes by, puffin' on lye
Hopin' that it gets me high
Got a nigga goin' crazy
I feel crazy
Time goes by, puffin' on lye
Hopin' that it gets me high
Got a nigga goin' crazy
I feel fucked up in this bitch
I smoked half a ounce to the head.
Chocolate Thai, indo, Hawaiian, lambsbread, buddha, all that shit!
I'm fucked up in this motherfucker
And Hennessy don't help
And Hennessy don't help
Thug Passion in this muh'fucker
Makaveli the Don puttin' it down to the fullest
Maximum overload
3 Day Theory, Killuminati to your body
With the impact of a 12 gauge shotty
Double-I slugs, no love, straight thugs
One time for my niggas in the jail cell, (One time for my niggas locked up)
One time for my niggas doin' life in Hell, (One time for my niggas and shit, one time)
One time for my niggas in the jail cell (One time)
One time for my niggas doin' life in Hell (One time for my niggas locked down)
One time for my niggas on Death Row (One time for my niggas on the Row)
For my niggas on Death Row
One time for my niggas livin' broke (Westside, California style, LA!)
One time for my niggas livin' broke (You know what time it is, no doubt)
One time for my niggas in the jail cell (Get high, puffin' on lye)
Wonder if it get me high, yeah
The song "Krazy" by 2Pac is a deep reflection on the struggles and hardships the rapper faced. The lyrics talk about his addiction to different substances such as smoking “lye” or marijuana and drinking "Hennessy." 2Pac acknowledges that these substances are not helpful in coping with his problems, but despite knowing that, he continues to use them to escape. He also talks about his frustration with the unfair treatment of his music and how it is blamed for the problems of young people. 2Pac highlights the changes that the fame brought to him with the lyrics, “Made a lot of money, seen a lot of places, and I swear, I seen a peaceful smile on my mama's face." He also reflects on his fear of death in the song, which is a common theme in his music.
The song features a steady beat with a sample from Eddie Kendricks' 1971 song "My People... Hold On." The lyrics are emotionally heavy, and combined with the slow rhythm, create a melancholic feeling, which is synonymous with much of Tupac's music. Krazy is a part of 2Pac's album, "The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory," which is widely considered one of his best albums. The album was released shortly after 2Pac was shot and killed, and it is believed that he alludes to his impending death throughout the album.

Throw me a cigarette, dawg!
Give me a moment of relief, my friend!
They got me feelin' crazier than a motherfucker
I feel overwhelmed and out of control
I got Bad Azz in this motherfucker
I have my trusted companion, Bad Azz, with me
Puffin' on lye, hopin' that it get me high
Smoking marijuana, hoping it will provide me with a sense of euphoria
Got a nigga goin' crazy
I am losing my sanity
Oh yeah, I feel crazy
Indeed, I am consumed by madness
Time goes by, puffin' on lye
As time passes, I continue to smoke marijuana
Hopin' that it gets me high
Desperately longing for the marijuana to bring me a sense of euphoria
Tell 'em about it!
Share this experience with others, let them know what I'm going through
Last year was a hard one, but life goes on
The previous year was challenging, but I must keep moving forward
Bumpin' my head against the wall, learnin' right from wrong
Struggling to make the right choices and learn from my mistakes
They say my ghetto instrumental, detrimental to kids
Some people claim that my music from the streets is harmful to children
As if they can't see the misery in which they live
They fail to recognize the suffering in their own lives
Blame me for the outcome, ban my records, check it
Hold me accountable for the consequences and attempt to censor my music
Don't have to bump this, but please respect it
You're not obligated to listen, but at least show some respect

I overcame a negative situation, and now the difficult times are in the past

Hennessy got me feelin' bad, time to stop drinkin'
Excessive consumption of Hennessy is making me feel negative, it's time to quit drinking
Rollin' in my drop-top Jag, what's that cops thinkin'?
Driving my convertible Jaguar, I wonder what the police are thinking
Sittin' in my car, watch the stars and smoke
Sitting alone in my car, contemplating life while observing the stars and smoking
I came a long way, but still I got so far to go
I have made progress, but there is still a long journey ahead of me
Dear mama, don't worry, I'mma watch for snakes
Mother, don't fret, I will be vigilant against deceitful individuals
Tell Setchu that I love her, but it's hard today
Convey my love to Setchu, but currently, life is challenging
I got the letter that she sent me, and I cried for weeks
Receiving her letter brought me immense sadness, leading to weeks of tears
This what came out when I tried to speak, all I heard was
When I attempted to express myself, all that came out was
I see Bloods and Crips runnin' up the hill
Observing gang members from different factions running uphill
Lookin' for a better way
Searching for an improved path or opportunity
My brothers and sisters, it's time to bail
My fellow comrades, it's time for us to escape
'Cause even thug niggas pray
Even those involved in criminal activities still have faith
Hopin' God hear me, I entered the game
Hoping God listens to my prayers as I got involved in this lifestyle
Look how much I changed
Reflecting on the significant changes I have undergone
I'm no longer innocent, casualties of fame
I have lost my innocence due to the negative consequences brought by fame
Made a lot of money, seen a lot of places
I have accumulated wealth and traveled extensively
And I swear I seen a peaceful smile on my mama's face
I distinctly remember the serene smile on my mother's face
When I gave her the keys to her own house, this your land
When I handed her the keys to her own house, I assured her that she is now a landowner
Your only son done became a man
Your son has finally matured into a grown man
Watchin' time fly, I love my people, do or die
Observing time passing, I am devoted to my people, willing to fight and sacrifice for them
But I wonder why we scared to let each other fly
I ponder why we are hesitant to allow each other to pursue our dreams
June 1-6, '71, the day
June 16, 1971, the date of my birth
Mama pushed me out her womb, told me, 'Nigga, get paid!'
As my mother gave birth to me, she urged me to strive for financial success
No one can understand me, the black sheep
Nobody can truly comprehend my thoughts and experiences, as I am the outcast of my family
Outcasted from my family, now packin' heat
Isolated from my relatives, and now carrying firearms for protection
I run the streets, a young runaway, live for today
I roam the streets as a rebellious youth, embracing a live-in-the-moment mentality
When he died, I could hear him say (Thug Life, baby!)
Upon his death, I sensed him saying, 'Embrace the Thug Life, my child!'
God, help me out here, 'cause I'm possessed
Oh God, assist me in this difficult situation because I feel consumed by negative forces
I need the root of all evil for my stress
To alleviate my stress, I crave money, often considered the root of all evil
'Cause money's like a strong prescription drug
Money possesses a potent addictive quality similar to that of a powerful medication
It's got me addicted to the pleasure and the pain it inflicted
I find myself addicted to both the pleasure and the suffering brought by money
Somethin' about the paper with the pictures of the president's head, damn
There's something about the currency notes adorned with presidents' portraits that influences me
It's like a motherfuckin' plague that spread
It feels as though this greed for money has infected society like a destructive plague
It's epidemic, forgotten, forgotten it got worse
This epidemic has worsened over time, yet it seems to have been neglected or disregarded
I keep my head on straight, makin' money 'cause it's cursed
Despite the negative consequences associated with money, I remain focused on earning it
Makin' money makes a difference day by day
Earning money gradually brings about changes in my life every day
So I gotta stay paid, no doubt, day in and day out
Therefore, I must ensure a consistent income, without a doubt, every day and night
This life is like a vicious cycle called fightin' to live
Existence itself feels like an endless cycle of struggling to survive
No matter how hard you try, it's in death, you gotta die
Regardless of the effort one puts in, death is an inevitable outcome
A lot of my peers didn't make it to the years to come
Many of my peers did not live long enough to witness the future
Did life doin' right or did life livin' dumb
Did they live a righteous life or were they foolish in their choices?
Who has the answers? I wonder, I turn to my elders
I ponder who possesses the answers to life's questions and seek guidance from my older generations
They aged and experienced, but they can't even tell ya
Despite their wisdom and life experience, they struggle to provide answers
Or tell me, that there'll be light at the end of the road
They cannot assure me that there will be a positive outcome in the future
(Why?) 'Cause they don't even know
Simply because they themselves are unaware
A million things run through my mind
Countless thoughts overwhelm my mind
You ain't gotta be in jail to be doin' time
One doesn't need to be incarcerated to feel trapped in life's struggles
I feel fucked up in this bitch
I feel incredibly messed up in this situation
I smoked half an ounce to the head
I consumed a substantial quantity of marijuana alone
Chocolate Thai, indo, Hawaiian, lambsbread, buddha, all that shit!
I indulged in various strains of potent marijuana
I'm fucked up in this motherfucker
I am severely intoxicated in this particular moment
And Hennessy don't help
Additionally, consuming Hennessy does not alleviate my state
Thug Passion in this muh'fucker
Within this space, the atmosphere is filled with a sense of intense passion
Makaveli the Don puttin' it down to the fullest
I, Makaveli the Don, am expressing myself wholeheartedly
Maximum overload
I have reached the peak of intensity
3 Day Theory, Killuminati to your body
My belief in the concept of the Three Day Theory and the power of the Killuminati can deeply impact you
With the impact of a 12 gauge shotty
Causing an impact similar to that of a 12-gauge shotgun
Double-I slugs, no love, straight thugs
Using double-I slugs, demonstrating ruthlessness, uncompromising and fierce behavior
One time for my niggas in the jail cell
A moment of acknowledgement for my fellow men trapped in prison
One time for my niggas doin' life in Hell
A moment of acknowledgement for my fellow men facing a lifetime of suffering
One time for my niggas on Death Row
A moment of acknowledgement for my fellow men awaiting their execution
One time for my niggas livin' broke
A moment of acknowledgement for my fellow men living in poverty
Wonder if it get me high, yeah
I wonder if indulging in marijuana will bring me a sense of euphoria

Agent Bosconian
on So Many Tears - Live
I fear only God and no human being
Even in the face of danger, I will stay strong
I have cried so much and fear that I might die soon
God, please guide me and take me to heaven if I die
I grew up in a sad, and lonely environment and it affected me in a gravely manner
I was abandoned; all alone and grew up in a community that was doomed to fail
My mind was greatly troubled and I couldn't be able to find my inner peace
I found solace and comfort in adopting a tough and rebellious lifestyle
Do you understand my pain and sorrow? I don't ever dwell on the past memories
To survive in a dangerous environment, you must react aggressively and quickly; in order to stay alive
I will always remember my friend, Kato. A good friend who has tragically died, and is no longer with us, anymore
I witnessed the day Kato perished on the streets and was calling for help
May Kato, and those who died before him, truly find peace in death
Is there really a place in heaven for a gangster like me? Always think and never forget about me
The friends that I once shared my laughter with; are now buried in their graves in the cemetery. I continue to shed countless tears for them; as I grieve for them
As I face many difficulties in the music industry, I will do whatever it takes to overcome it
People call me greedy and selfish for making money, yet they rarely can see me
I feel like I'm being cursed by the world and havin' disturbing; yet horrible premonitions
I have a fear that I will die and lie inside a coffin on a hearse, and want God's guidance and empathy
I want to escape from the problems, stress and the hurting of life
I yearned; longing for happiness and clarity in my troubled life
I'm trapped in jail and my life is in shambles
I feel like I'm doomed to go to Hell, but I don't know why
I'm in denial about my life, and I'm scared of death
If I go to hell, I will be in eternal pain and cry so much
I'm lost and tired, and I've cried so much
I'm contemplating suicide, so stay away from me
I'm intentionally moving towards death
I'm ready to die, and I feel like I have nothing to live for
The streets were ruthless, and I couldn't find peace
I'm on the verge of breaking down, and I long for peace
I lost my soul and my identity, but I was unaware
I had demons in my mind that were taking over
The demons inside me grew and ignited a fire
My head felt like a bomb ready to explode, it was a nasty game
I have no happy memories, only pain and sadness
I imagine my enemies murdering me in my sleep
I wonder if I'll live to see the next day
I ask God to pardon me for my wrongs as death approaches
God knows I tried my best, but I've seen people get killed
I witnessed innocent people, including children, being killed by drive-by shootings
I wonder why these tragedies happen as I pass by
I feel sad as I see the outline of a body on the ground and turn to drugs for comfort
I don't want this life, I want something different
There is no promising future for me; I'm trapped in the cycle of crime and violence
I feel like I'm in a never-ending maze
Alcohol made me act out and lose my mind
I've been disillusioned and now want a family
I want a family to see a better side of myself that isn't tainted by my past
I don't trust my girlfriend because she's been influenced by the negative environment around us
I hear rumors that my girlfriend is cheating on me with my friends, and I can't handle it
I collapse and pray for God to let me into heaven
I've cried countless tears and beg for God's mercy to let me into heaven
I've lost so many years and cried so many tears
God, I lost so many friends and associates, and...
God knows I tried my best, but I've seen people get killed
I witnessed innocent people, including children, being killed by drive-by shootings
I wonder why these tragedies happen as I pass by
I feel sad as I see the outline of a body on the ground and turn to drugs for comfort
I don't want this life, I want something different
There is no promising future for me; I'm trapped in the cycle of crime and violence
I feel like I'm in a never-ending maze
Alcohol made me act out and lose my mind
I've been disillusioned and now want a family
I want a family to see a better side of myself that isn't tainted by my past
I don't trust my girlfriend because she's been influenced by the negative environment around us
I hear rumors that my girlfriend is cheating on me with my friends, and I can't handle it
I collapse and pray for God to let me into heaven
I've cried countless tears and beg for God's mercy to let me into heaven
I've lost so many years and cried so many tears
God, I lost so many friends and associates, and cried so many tears

on So Many Tears
I am not afraid of anything or anyone other than God.
Even when I am in the darkest of times and places.
I have cried so many tears because of the pain and hardships I have faced in my life.
I ask God to guide me and be with me in my journey through life.
Even as a child in elementary school, I found myself attracted to and surrounded by sadness and hopelessness.
I was abandoned and grew up among a generation of people who were doomed to fail.
My mind was constantly struggling, and I could not find a sense of peace or comfort anywhere.
I found a sense of identity and belonging when I got the tattoo of 'Thug Life' on my chest.
Do you understand the struggles and pain that I have experienced in my life?
I am not dwelling on my past mistakes, and if you want to be successful, you shouldn't be either.
In order to defend yourself and your community from violence, you must be the first one to take action. We should never forget Kato, who was killed due to senseless violence.
Kato is no longer with us and has passed away.
I witnessed violent crimes, and I've seen the aftermath of people being killed on the streets.
I hope Kato, and all those who have passed before him, are resting in peace.
Is there a place in heaven for someone like me, who has lived a life of violence and crime?
Remember me and all of my friends who have died and are now buried in the cemetery.
I address God.
I have experienced a lot of suffering throughout my life.
I have cried so many tears because of the pain and hardships I have faced in my life.
Now that I am struggling in the music industry.
I will do whatever it takes to succeed, even if it means being labeled as greedy and only focused on making money.
Even though I am chasing success, I rarely get to enjoy it or be seen by others.
I feel cursed and have a negative outlook on the world.
I am having visions of dying and leaving this world in a coffin.
I ask God if he can understand what I am going through and help me.
I want to be relieved of all the stress and suffering I feel.
I want to experience happiness again, which has been absent from my life for some time.
I feel like I am losing sight of what's important in my life.
I feel trapped in my current situation, and my quality of life is suffering as a result.
I already feel like I am destined to go to hell, and I question where I went wrong in my life.
I am unable to come to terms with my reality.
When I die, I fear that I will be punished forever in the afterlife.
I feel lost and tired.
I have cried so much that I am now having suicidal thoughts, so please don't be near me.
Everything I do feels like a complicated and difficult step.
To bring me closer to what I want to achieve.
I am prepared to accept death at any moment since I feel like I have nothing to live for.
Things were very rough and merciless on the streets.
I was never able to find peace or rest in that environment.
I am close to falling apart and screaming for peace.
Even though I was empty and lost, I couldn't understand or recognize it at the time.
My mind was plagued with negative thoughts and emotions, which were trying to escape constantly.
The negative thoughts and emotions had been planted long ago and have now taken root, and the flame of negativity is now growing stronger.
Just like a match can light a fire, the negative thoughts in my brain can also do the same, causing pain and suffering.
I have no good memories to comfort me, only sadness and suffering.
I am afraid of being attacked and killed by the people who hate me, even in my sleep.
I wonder if I will survive through the night to see the light of the new day?
I ask God for forgiveness for my past mistakes and wrongdoings.
I am trying to face my problems and come out stronger and better.
The Lord knows I have tried my best, and I have witnessed violent deaths in my community.
Drive-by shootings have resulted in the loss of many lives, including innocent children.
I wonder why these tragedies are happening in my community as I walk around and see the devastation.
I am saddened as I look at the markings on the pavement where someone has been killed, and the only way I can deal with this pain is by getting high.
I understand that this isn't the kind of life that I want for myself, and I want to change it.
I want to change my life for the better.
I feel like there is no future for me, no matter how hard I try to change.
I am trapped in the cycle of crime and violence that exists in my community.
I am lost and confused about how to get out of this situation.
The alcohol has influenced me to act more recklessly and dangerously.
I have lost faith and become cynical about life recently.
I have been wanting to have children and start a family.
I want to see a better version of myself in my children, someone who isn't always involved in negative activities.
I don't fully trust my partner because of the negative influence of our environment.
My partner has also been affected by the negative influences of our environment, and I am hearing strange noises because of how paranoid I am.
I am paranoid that my partner is cheating on me with my friends, and I can't handle the stress anymore.
I am begging God to forgive me and let me into heaven when I die.
I have lost many friends and acquaintances to violence and death.
As a result of these losses, I have cried many tears and experienced a lot of sadness.
I have experienced a lot of pain and suffering throughout my life.

on So Many Tears
The lyrics of Tupac Shakur's song "So Many Tears" explore the themes of paranoia, pain, and death. The first verse of the song presents Tupac's fearlessness of men, but not of God. The rapper then describes his life growing up, where he felt like he was surrounded by misery but found a sense of identity and belonging in the Thug Life culture. He mourns the deaths of his friends, particularly Kato, who was murdered in the streets. Tupac questions to himself whether there is heaven for a "G" and reflects on the many homies who died; that are now in the cemetery.
In the second verse, Tupac reveals his struggles in the music industry, where he feels overwhelmed by the pressure and pain. He admits to being greedy and having a vision of dying young. Tupac requests God to free him from the pain and suffering he experiences in life. The final verse of the song sees Tupac lost, weary, and suicidal. He delves into his struggles with addiction, and he starts to hear voices and experience demons in his mind. Tupac desires to change, but he feels trapped in the game, and he is unsure of his lady's loyalty.
Overall, Tupac Shakur's "So Many Tears" is a poignant song that reflects the artist's tumultuous life and his struggles with death and paranoia. The lyrics also tackle the harsh realities of growing up in the ghetto and the impact that violence and loss have on the psyche of an individual.
