As many of you know, Tupac was no angel here on earth. He suffered many hardships, committed many transgressions, but in the end, he graced the world with his poetry and now, from the afterlife, with his wisdom. Enjoy the last segment of Tupac’s interview.
Me: Okay. Now, what past life do you think influenced your last one the most?
(Long pause)
Jamie: He’s showing me him being a Caucasian male dressed in full cowboy gear—the leather on the legs, chaps. He’s a bit skinny, you know. Not really a brute. Lot’s of facial hair, kind of unkempt. Because he was so skinny in that life, he learned how to shoot really well to protect himself, and he was a really sharp aim.
Tupac: In that life, I used my gun for reasons where it shouldn’t have been used. It’s what protected me, but yet I was known for being impatient and killing people. That impatience carried over to my last life: big ego, big gun. I thought I had rights I really didn’t have.
Me: Good thing you were so skinny. It made you less of a target, right? When the bullets whizzed past you, all you had to do is turn sideways.
Tupac (laughing): I like you!
Me: Well, I like you too, Darlin’. So, I guess it’s almost poetic that you, yourself, succumbed to a gunshot wound.
Tupac: Yeah, damn ironic.
Me: Now, last but not least, do you have anything else you want to share with the world?
Tupac: The wild wild west is over, man. The only thing legal you can shoot anyone with anymore are words out of your mouth, so you better learn to use them well and responsibly. Be careful not to let words fuck up relationships that you value.
Me: Okay. Erik, do you want to ask Tupac anything?
Erik: Naw, I’m good.
Me: Okay. Well, thanks so much, Tupac. I hope to do you proud.
Tupac: Thank you.
Jamie: He just turns and walks away; he doesn’t say bye or anything.
(Pause)
Jamie (giggling): Erik! He’s sitting up on my countertop again.
Erik: I was so intimidated by him!
Me: Aw! Wait, what the hell could he possibly do to you, Erik? I’m mean, after all, you are dead.
Jamie (still laughing): I could kinda tell you were nervous, Erik!
