Pessimism is an emotion, not a philosophy
I just realized that if I were Tupac Shakur, I'd be dead now (Not like him being him, because obviously I'd be dead, but like if my lifespan were the same as his)...
I would've been dead for a week now.
Damn... that makes me feel both insignificant (in respect to what I've done to "leave a mark on society") and just awestruck by his cultural/historical/societal impact (forgive him his missteps, he grew up infront of a universe with no real direction).
I wonder what would've become of Mr. Shakur had he lived (best case scenario: He'd be Jay-Z with a larger, more cognizant political presence; worst case scenario: He would've succumb to the lifestyle he embraced to forge an identity and he'd have gotten killed at some later point or would be incarcerated... Most likely, he would be somewhere between the two extremes, but closer to the latter)...
The sky wasn't the limit, indeed...
Regardless of all the potentials, he would've probably made a better pro-Obama song than Young Jeezy...
