“4 Romeo there was Juliet, 4 Sampson was Delilah, 4 Heaven there was hell, 4 water there is fire, but me, I walk alone w life, w search of something pure, then I came across a woman who was All I wasz looking for.”
The authentic poem and piece of Tupac history is selling for a mere 95-thousand-dollars.
“All Eyez on Me” featuring Big Skye, appeared on 2Pac’s fourth studio album, All Eyez on Me, Disc 2. It was the last project released while Tupac Shakur was living.
All Eyez on Me made history as the first ever double-full-length Hip Hop solo studio album released commercially.
