(Poetry) Black Woman
Tupac Shakur · Other Songs - 2 Pac
The day I met U I saw strength
and I knew from that point on
that U were pure woman 2 me
Possessing a spirit that was strong
I want smiles 2 replace the sorrow
that U have encountered in the past
and since it was strength that attracted me 2 U
it will take streangth 2 make it last
My negative side will attempt 2 change U
but please fight that with your all
it will be your strength that keep us both standing
while others around us fall
and I knew from that point on
that U were pure woman 2 me
Possessing a spirit that was strong
I want smiles 2 replace the sorrow
that U have encountered in the past
and since it was strength that attracted me 2 U
it will take streangth 2 make it last
My negative side will attempt 2 change U
but please fight that with your all
it will be your strength that keep us both standing
while others around us fall

Released during the height of his career, the song utilizes his signature flow to deliver a message of empowerment for Black women, celebrating their strength and resilience. The recording captures the raw emotion and political consciousness that defined much of his discography, particularly within the East Coast hip-hop landscape of the 1990s. By weaving personal narrative with broader societal commentary, Shakur creates a work that remains relevant for its unapologetic stance on identity and dignity.
