2Pac had a premonition he would die young, which he vocalized multiple times in his music. As he raps on the 1995 single “If I Die Tonight” from Me Against The World, “I hope they bury me and send me to my rest/Headlines readin ‘Murdered to death’/My last breath.”
He takes it a step further on “Only God Can Judge Me” when he says, “Flatline/I hear the doctor standing over me screamin’ I can make it/Got a body full of bullet holes layin’ here naked/Still I, can’t breathe, somethings evil in my IV/’Cause every time I breathe, I think they killin’ me.” But perhaps the eeriest premonition came in the video for “I Ain’t Mad At Cha,” filmed just one month before his death.
