Rap icon, Salt, has has unveiled Pac’s poem to the public. The poem was sent to her in 1995 when Pac was in New York’s Clinton Correctional Facility, while serving his prison sentence for a sexual abuse.
According to Salt, that was one of the many poems he's sent her throughout his incarceration.
Salt told sources, "When he went to jail, me being a Christian, I wrote him letter about my faith to encourage him and also to let him know what kept me going in the hard times. He felt like the whole world was turning against him and he was unjustly in prison. I told him that he could turn away from negativity and turn away from sin. He could have this new relationship directly with God.” Salt also stated that she’d send him books about faith and learned he read them along with the Quran and the Bible.
The Poem Reads:
"Am not much 4 pretty wordz and such cuz these dayz my pain is deep
But there is alwayz pleasure 2 be found in timez of struggle and grief
If a tree can grow through New York concrete then a thugg can change his heart
If I can survive 5 deadly shotz, we can discover light within the dark
I’m sure u have had timez of misery, all of us experience hurt
But only the strong in spirit survive the wicked world 4 all it’z worth"
