Pac's Theme

This song is basically an explanation from Tupac. He states here that by putting pieces of interviews and statements unfoundness of banning his records for violent lyrics. He tries to prove that he isn’t responsible for violence in America, as he said “I diagnosed it”. The song is formed into kind of conversation between Tupac and Dan Quayle, who was responsible for putting Tupac’s album out of shelves. Tupac claims that the one who should be blamed is society he grew up in. The society is responsible for making him who he was. He was rapping about what he saw, not what he wanted his fans to do. “I’m not a role model” – Tupac states in this song. He did a lot of bad things, but he shouldn’t be taken as a role model. He can’t take responsibility for others.
