[Robbie G]

My favourite is Changes (which fails to have made the poll)

That song and California Love are the only ones i've really heard

 

[Spicy2]

Last One Left - woohoo I scored 50%!

 

[Braders]

My favourite is Changes (which fails to have made the poll)

Come on come on
I see no changes. Wake up in the morning and I ask myself,
"Is life worth living? Should I blast myself?"
I'm tired of bein' poor and even worse I'm black.
My stomach hurts, so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch.
Cops give a damn about a negro? Pull the trigger, kill a nigga, he's a hero.
Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares? One less hungry mouth on the welfare.
First ship 'em dope & let 'em deal the brothers.
Give 'em guns, step back, and watch 'em kill each other.
"It's time to fight back", that's what Huey said.
2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead.
I got love for my brother, but we can never go nowhere
unless we share with each other. We gotta start makin' changes.
Learn to see me as a brother 'stead of 2 distant strangers.
And that's how it's supposed to be.
How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me?
I'd love to go back to when we played as kids,
but things change, and that's the way it is.

[Bridge w/ changing ad libs]

(Come on, come on) That's just the way it is. Things'll never be the same.
That's just the way it is. aww yeah...
[Repeat]

I see no changes. All I see is racist faces.
Misplaced hate makes disgrace for races we under.
I wonder what it takes to make this one better place...
let's erase the wasted.
Take the evil out the people, they'll be acting right.
'Cause mo' black than white is smokin' crack tonight.
And only time we chill is when we kill each other.
It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other.
And although it seems heaven sent,
we ain't ready to see a black President, uhh.
It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact...
the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks.
But some things will never change.
Try to show another way, but they stayin' in the dope game.
Now tell me what's a mother to do?
Bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you.
You gotta operate the easy way.
"I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way.
Sellin' crack to the kids. "I gotta get paid,"
Well hey, well that's the way it is.

[Bridge]
[Talking:]

We gotta make a change...
It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
and let's change the way we treat each other.
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
what we gotta do, to survive.

And still I see no changes. Can't a brother get a little peace?
There's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East.
Instead of war on poverty,
they got a war on drugs so the police can bother me.
And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do.
But now I'm back with the facts givin' 'em back to you.
Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up, crack you up and pimp smack you up.
You gotta learn to hold ya own.
They get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone.
But tell the cops they can't touch this.
I don't trust this, when they try to rush I bust this.
That's the sound of my tune. You say it ain't cool, but mama didn't raise no fool.
And as long as I stay black, I gotta stay strapped & I never get to lay back.
'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs.
Some buck that I roughed up way back... comin' back after all these years.
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat. That's the way it is. uhh

[Bridge 'til fade]
Some things never change.


good choice

 

[Spicy2]

I like that one, Braders, but usually only remember the verse! I also like "How long will you mourn me".

 

[Trigger]

I aint mad at cha... Which also seems to have not made the poll

 

[Fluffster]

Changes is a great song.

 

[bigc]

where is how do you want it?

or, hit 'em up?

 

[Kev the Ape]

well i got the untill the end of time album, and CHANGES aint on it.

 

[Spicy2]

I think the songs listed are from the same album aren't they?

 

[Kev the Ape]

yeah mate.

 

[Spicy2]

That's cheating, Kev! Presumably your fave album though?

 

[Kev the Ape]

yeah my favourite album of all time, i never stop listening to it.

 

[D'Angelo Saxon]

All is ever hear is f***ing Tupac. His best track ain't even on your list. Obviously it's You Can't See Me from whatever the double CD LP was called (I've got it somewhere, just can't be arsed to find it). He was a better actor than a rapper. Respect to him for doing what he did, but he's just getting cold raped by the music industry now who are releasing track after track that he probably didn't even want to see the light of day.

Move on. Listen to UK Hip-Hop as well as the US stuff. Try it - you might like it.

 

[Marty McFly]

Is Tupac dead?

 

[Frutos]

Is Tupac dead?

As dead as this topic was before you posted

Ghetto Ghospel with Elton John rocks.

Other than that, I cant stand Tupac

[John Boy]

This reminds me of a Kev classic, he said on the coach to an away match a couple of years ago.

We were taking the mick out of 2pac to wind Kev up...

'2pac would be spinning in his grave if he wasn't dead'
