Today is filled with anger
Fueled with hidden hate
Scared of being outcast
Afraid of common fate
Today is built on tragedies
which no one wants 2 face
Nightmares 2 humanities
and morally disgraced
Tonight is filled with rage
Violence in the air
Children bred with ruthlessness
Because no one at home cares
Tonight I lay my head down
But the pressure never stops
gnawing at my sanity
content when I am dropped
But 2morrow I c change
A chance to build anew
Built on spirit, intent of heart
and ideals based on truth
And 2morrow I wake with second wind
And strong because of pride
2 know I fought with all my heart 2 keep my dream alive
--Tupac Shakur
Disclaimer: I love Tupac any and everything he's ever done (ESPECIALLY HIS POETRY) so there will be quite a few mentionings of him or really just his poems posted up everywhere.

2morrow is only a day away...I love this poem. I can't say that I'm a big fan of his work [i do know a few songs, especially thugs mansion] but this poem speaks volumes. I see why you got that big poster on your wall lol
