Video y letra de 16 On Death Row de Tupac

No se pierdan de esta cancion, titulada 16 On Death Row, de TupacComo sabran, procede de Tupac. Contiene mucha poesia en su contenido, como veran adelante. R U Still Down? (Remember Me), sin duda uno de los mejores albumes de Tupac. El video, en cambio, no es del todo bueno. No sabemos ni que decir del video musical.

Death Row
That's where motherfuckers i s endi n up

Dear mama, I am caught up i n thi s sickness
I robbed my adversaries, but slipped a nd left a witness
Wonder i f they'll catch me, o r will thi s nigga snitch
Should I shoot hi s bitch, o r make the nigga rich?
Don't wanna commit murder, but damn they got me trapped
Hawki n while I am walki n, a nd talki n behi nd my back
I am ki nd of schizophrenic, I am i n thi s shit t o wi n it
Cause li fe's a Wheel of, Fo rtune here's my chance t o spi n it
Got no time fo r cops, who trip a nd try t o catch me
Too fucki n trigger happy, t o let them suckers snatch me
Niggaz getti n jealous (jealous) tryi n t o fi nd my stash
Whip out the ni ne, now I ama dive a nd pump your ass
Peter picked a pepper, but I can pick a punk
Snatched him l ike a bitch, a nd threw him i n the trunk
The punk thought I was bluffi n, but swear I am n othi n nice
Befo re I take your li fe, first wrestle with these, mics
I li sten t o him scream, Tray Deee went i nsane
I guess the little, mites had fi nally found hi s brai n
New Rovers pull me over, I am sentenced t o the pen
Remember that little, bird, he snitched a nd t old a, friend
It's trouble on my mi nd, I am with the old timers
A nd fuck five-oh, blaow blaow.. turn em i nt o fo rty-ni ners

[Tupac si ngs]
Bye bye, I was never meant t o live
Can't be positive, when the ghett o's where you live
Bye bye, I was never meant t o be
Livi n l ike a thief, runni n through the streets
Bye bye, a nd I got no place t o go…
Where they fi nd me? 16 on Death Row

Dear mama, these cops don't understa nd me
I turned t o a li fe of crime, cause I came from a broken family
My uncle used t o t ouch me, I never t old you that
Scared what you might do, I couldn't hold you back
I kept it deep i nside, I done let it fuel my anger
I am down fo r all my homies, no mercy fo r a stranger
The brother i n my cell, i s 16 as well
It's hard t o adapt, when you're black a nd you're trapped i n a livi n Hell
I shouldn'ta let him catch me
I nstead of livi n sad i n jail I coulda died free a nd happy
A nd my cellmate's raped on the no rm
A nd passed around the do rm, you can hear hi s asshole getti n t o rn
They made me an animal
Can't sleep, i nstead of counti n sheep, niggaz counti n cannibals
A nd that's how it i s i n the pen
Turn old a nd cold, a nd your soul i s your best friend
My mama prayed fo r me
Tell the Lo rd t o make way fo r me, prepare any day fo r me (why?)
Cause when they come fo r me they fi nd a struggler
To the death I take the breath from your jugular
The trick i s t o never lose hope
I found my buddy hangi n dead from a rope, 16 on Death Row

[Tupac si ngs]
Bye bye, I was never meant t o live
Can't be positive, when the ghett o's where you live
Bye bye, I was never meant t o be
Livi n l ike a thief, runni n through the streets
Bye bye, a nd I got no place t o go…
Where you fi nd me? 16 on Death Row

Dear mama, they sentenced me t o death
Today's my fi nal day, I am counti n every breath
I am bitter cause I am dyi n, so much I haven't seen
I know you never dreamed, your baby would be dead at 16
I got beef with a sick society that doesn't give a shit
A nd they t oo quick t o say goodbye t o me
They tell me the preacher's there fo r me
He's a crook with a book, that motherfucker never cared fo r me
He's only here t o be sure
I don't drop a dime t o God bout the crimes he's commiti n
on the poo r, a nd how can these people judge me?
They ai n't my peers a nd i n all these years, they ai n't never love me
I never got t o be a man, must be part of some big plan
t o keep a nigga i n the state pen
A nd t o my homies out buryi n motherfuckers
Steer clear of these Aryan motherfuckers
Cause once they got you locked up
They got you trapped, you're better off getti n shot up
I am convi nced self-defense i s the way
Please, stay strapped, pack a gat every day
I wi sh I woulda known while I was out there
Now I am straight headi n fo r the chair

[Tupac si ngs]
Bye bye, I was never meant t o live
Can't be positive, when the ghett o's where we live
Bye bye, I was never meant t o be
Livi n l ike a thief, runni n through the streets
Bye bye, a nd I got no place t o go…
Where you fi nd me? 16 on Death Row

16 on Death Row
It's t o all my partners i n the penitentiaries
16 on Death Row
