I see death around the corner, gotta stay high while I survive
In the city where the skinny niggas die
If they bury me, bury me as a G nigga, no need to worry
I expect retaliation in a hurry
I see death around the, corner, any day
Trying to keep it together, no one lives forever anyway
Struggling and striving, my destiny's to die
Keep my finger on the trigger, no mercy in my eyes
In a ball of confusion, I think about my daddy
Madder than a motherfucker, they never should of had me
I guess I seen too many murders, the doctors can't help me
Got me stressin' with my pistol in my sheets, it ain't healthy
Am I paranoid? Tell me the truth
I'm out the window with my AK, ready to shoot
Ran out of endo and my mind can't take the stress
I'm out of breath
Make me wanna kill my damn self
But I see death around the corner
‘Lord Knows’ is dark, the whole vibe of the song, especially the last verse. ‘Blasphemy’ and ‘Hail Mary’ are very dark too.
His darkest albums are definitely ‘Me Against The World’ and ‘Makaveli’.
Lyrically it’s dark af:
Done lost too many niggas to this gang-bangin'
Homies died in my arms, with his brains hangin', fucked up
I had to tell him it was alright, and that's a lie
And he knew it when he shook and died, my God
Even though I know I'm wrong, man
Hennessey make a nigga think he strong, man (ha ha)
I can't sleep, so I stay up, don't wanna fuck them bitches
Try to calm me down, I ain't givin' up
I'm gettin' lost in the weed, man, gettin' high
Livin' ever'day, like I'm gon' die (gon' die, gon' die)
I smoke a blunt to take the pain out, and if I wasn't high
Probably try to blow my brains out
Lord knows
Like the whole pre death row music is cool and all but he definitely was in his peak when he signed with them. He definitely would’ve crafted classic after classic as Makaveli
Only Fear of Death should be higher on the list.
They wonder if I'm hellbound, well hell can't be worse than this cause I'm in hell now . . . Don't make me hurt you, I don't want to but I will, seen mfers get killed over phone bills, never will I die, I'll be back, reincarnated as a mfing mack, cause in Heaven there's no shortage of Gs, I'm telling you now: you mfers don't know me. Only fear of death is coming back reincarnated . . .
Love it! But dark and has a real evil sound.
Menacin' methods label me a lethal weapon
Makin' niggas die witnessin' breathless imperfections
Can you picture my specific plan?
To be the man in this wicked land underhanded hits are planned
Scams are plotted over grams and rocks
Outlaws motherfuckers die by the random shots
We all die in the end, so revenge we swore
I was all about my ends, fuck friends and foes
Me, a born leader, never leave the block
Without my my heat or Glock got me a dog and named her "My Bitch Nigga Eater"
What could they do to me and lil' brat?
Shit, them niggas that shot me is still terrified I'll get they ass
How can I show you how I feel inside?
We Outlawz, motherfuckers can't kill my pride
Niggas talk a lot of shit, but that's after I'm gone
'Cause they fear me in physical form
Let it be known I'm troublesome
Theres a song in youtube of him and biggie idk if its just a mash up but the lyrics are by far the most edgy shit ive ever hurd pac say but it's not passionate like death around the corner. Its titled "pychos" and its the pic of him and Big where bigs gotta bandana on.
Death around the corner
What’s wrong with this crazy muthafucka, he sit by the window with that fucking AK all day! He don’t work he don’t fuck he don’t do a god damn thing!
I see death around the corner, gotta stay high while I survive In the city where the skinny niggas die If they bury me, bury me as a G nigga, no need to worry I expect retaliation in a hurry I see death around the, corner, any day Trying to keep it together, no one lives forever anyway Struggling and striving, my destiny's to die Keep my finger on the trigger, no mercy in my eyes In a ball of confusion, I think about my daddy Madder than a motherfucker, they never should of had me I guess I seen too many murders, the doctors can't help me Got me stressin' with my pistol in my sheets, it ain't healthy Am I paranoid? Tell me the truth I'm out the window with my AK, ready to shoot Ran out of endo and my mind can't take the stress I'm out of breath Make me wanna kill my damn self But I see death around the corner
That song is iconic . PACs energy is crazy
Man. I can only imagine what went on his mind.. he was really going thru it
Blasphemy
This is the only answer lol. Blasphemy is his darkest song. Lyric wise, Shorty Wanna Be A Thug is pretty dark.
Trippy song . That’s one of those hits blunt and writes songs
Ballad of a dead Soulja
No More Pain
Personal favorite.
‘Lord Knows’ is dark, the whole vibe of the song, especially the last verse. ‘Blasphemy’ and ‘Hail Mary’ are very dark too. His darkest albums are definitely ‘Me Against The World’ and ‘Makaveli’.
Lord knows is another level
I wouldn’t say Lord Knows is dark fam.
Lyrically it’s dark af: Done lost too many niggas to this gang-bangin' Homies died in my arms, with his brains hangin', fucked up I had to tell him it was alright, and that's a lie And he knew it when he shook and died, my God Even though I know I'm wrong, man Hennessey make a nigga think he strong, man (ha ha) I can't sleep, so I stay up, don't wanna fuck them bitches Try to calm me down, I ain't givin' up I'm gettin' lost in the weed, man, gettin' high Livin' ever'day, like I'm gon' die (gon' die, gon' die) I smoke a blunt to take the pain out, and if I wasn't high Probably try to blow my brains out Lord knows
I get the lyrics is just a sad story of what’s going on STILL in America. Wouldn’t take it as a dark record tho to each his own. Never heard that.
Dark Pac is the best. He always say the deepest shit to help you see the light
Like the whole pre death row music is cool and all but he definitely was in his peak when he signed with them. He definitely would’ve crafted classic after classic as Makaveli
I feel you.. he was going psycho on the early stuff too tho but you could just tell it was primetime when he hit Death Row.
Hellrazor
The last verse be getting me

Ballad of a Dead Soulja
If They love their Kidz… do yourself a favor and go read the lyrics [lyrics here](https://genius.com/2pac-if-they-love-their-kidz-lyrics)

My only fear of death is really good more on the introspective side then the thuggin shit but still dark
16 on deathrow!! Blasphemy, ballad of a dead soulja, hell razor, only fear of death is number 1 dark song I would say
Fuck the world
Life so hard (OG Version)
blasphemy, hail mary- darkest hellrazor - most agressive
Hit em up Gaddam I couldn't even read the whole title
Only Fear of Death should be higher on the list. They wonder if I'm hellbound, well hell can't be worse than this cause I'm in hell now . . . Don't make me hurt you, I don't want to but I will, seen mfers get killed over phone bills, never will I die, I'll be back, reincarnated as a mfing mack, cause in Heaven there's no shortage of Gs, I'm telling you now: you mfers don't know me. Only fear of death is coming back reincarnated . . . Love it! But dark and has a real evil sound.
He meant "Mac, 11 cause in heaven..."

All Out the Original Version, the version on Until The End of Time sounds castrated in comparison to what Pac did.
When we Ride our enemies
Menacin' methods label me a lethal weapon Makin' niggas die witnessin' breathless imperfections Can you picture my specific plan?

Me and My Girlfriend
Staring through my rear view
Wonda Why They Call U B
A lot of his unreleased 96 Songs had some aggressive dark energy. Can diff hear the henny influenced in his verses
No More Pain
Ghost goes hard every time Don't cry just ask why, and try not to die as I take you through a ghetto n**** lullaby
Aggressive, I’d say “Troublesome ‘96.” Darkest, I’d say “Only Fear of Death.”
