Tupac is one one of the greatest rappers of all time. He’s a legend. In this song he talks about how society is ashamed of the youth. But he explains the way he sees things, he says that the older generation is to blame for the way the youth is. They left the youth a messed up world. The youth is left wondering if role models like Malcom X died for a cause because of how things are still the same. It’s upsetting how things haven’t changed for the better, for what many people sacrificed their lives for. But there’s still people out there suffering, who are the youth supposed to look up to?
And it hurts
‘Cause any day they’ll push the button
And all come in like Malcolm X or Bobby Hutton died for nothing
Don’t it make you get teary
The world looks dreary
When you wipe your eyes see it clearly”
