Two Bible verses come to mind when I think about Pac.
Ecclesiastes 9:4, "a live dog is better than a dead lion." For as much as Pac is revered, the sad reality is he died way too young. Far too early before reaching his potential. People praise him like he was some kind of martyr when really he was a reckless young fool. Like Eiht said, he stepped into a world that he didnt have to and paid "the ultimate price, poltergeist, put the holy ghost in ya life, bring ya closer to Christ." All that potential, wasted because he felt the need to earn some worthless stripes bangin.
1 Cor 15:33, "Do not be mislead, bad associations spoil useful habits." Truth be told Pac was running with folks who like Schoolboy Q said about his own folks rockin Astro hats that they "cant do nothing but cause damage." Its a shame nobody mature enough and caring enough was around to say, "Pac, slow down." Or, "fall back. We gonna make these n!ggas suffer. You my brother like a frat." Nope, all he had around him was a bunch of enablers too stupid and stuck with tunnel vision to see that their lifestyle was putting their cash cow in jeopardy. Thats not love. MOB Piru didnt love Pac. Suge didnt love Pac. If any of them did, they would have saved him from himself cuz ultimately he was imitating them, but he wasnt them. Worthless friends and associates.
