2 pacBand Name Origins:
- Tupac Amaru Shakur: Not sure about his birth name but I know (for a fact) that Tupac Amaru was an Incan Warrior from Peru; he's ON the Peruvian currency today. The legend says that when Spaniards try to quarter him; he was too strong; so they cut his head off. Submitted by: Jason P
- 2pac's actual name was Lesane Parish Crooks (bet hardly any of you know that), but after an Indian revolution, his mum changed his name to Tupac Armaru (shining serpeant) Shakur (of God). So his name was Tupac, which can be shortened to 2pac. Submitted by: zammo

Lyrics Alliteration:
"If I Die 2nite"
The Lyrics: they say p***y & paper is poetry, power & pistols.
picturin' pitiful punk n***az coppin' pleas.puffin' weed as i position myself.... my enemies scatter in suicidal situations. pockets is packed with presidents pursue your riches. b**chez is bad-mouthed coz ballin' muthaf***az is bold. i'm sick of psychotic society, somebody save me. polish your pistols, prepare for battle, pass the pump. call on the coroner, come collect the f***in' corpse. picture perfection, pursuin' paper with a passion. pissin' while practicin' how to pimp and be a playa. Why: the whole song is an alliteration masterpiece!! one of the best examples i have ever heard. from the album Me Against The World. still one of the best rap albums of all time!
