Tupac had a tough childhood, he grew up without his father and was extremely poor. All his homies from his childhood are either dead or in jail.

The harsh reality of life, ‘friends’ will stick by your side until shit gets real and you’re put in the corner. Only true friends will stick by your side through thick and thin.

The ‘Pigs’ he is referring to are The Police. Tupac is implying he can’t let the Police succeed.

It sounds like “if the pigs sentence me” as in if the cops get him to serve another sentence in prison.

Pac is suggesting that abortion is not a man’s choice but for a woman to decide whether she continues her pregnancy or not. Also, Tupac believes that only God should judge which he made a song about.

@Diego ; I don’t think so. Pac made a lot pro abortion reference in his song.
“Since my very first day on this Earth, I was cursed
So, I knew that the birth of a child would make my life worse
And though it hurt me, there was no distortion
‘Cause wild seeds can’t grow, we need more abortions
Quiet your soul, 'cause you know what you had to do
And so did victims of a world they never came to”

this feels contradictory because he may be saying that they don’t have the right to stop a pregnancy. no?

As Tupac starts speaking, Bizzy Bone can be heard in the background saying ‘He’s alive, he’s alive.’

Another thing that contributes to people thinking Tupac faked his death.

Interesting fact: Tupac recorded his verse in 111 seconds as confirmed by Bizzy Bone.

A double entendre:
1. Bone Thugs are killing their foes the East 99th Street way.
2. They are killing them with two glocks. (E. 99 style).
