Hennessy's got me feelin' choked.
The genius of the lies in sonic dissonance . 2Pac’s voice in 1995 was aggressive, unpolished, and live. He sounds like he is rapping in a tiny, sweaty room. Izzamuzzic places that vocal inside a cathedral of sound.
In the second verse, 2Pac continues to describe the harsh realities of life in the ghetto, where violence and death are an everyday occurrence:
"I see so much pain, in my life, in my city People dyin', can't nobody stop it, it's gettin' crazy My homies, they ain't comin' home, they're doin' time And the ones that do, they ain't never bein' the same, it's all a crime"
