Sometimes when I sit and think about the sacrificing my mother did to raise my brothers and me, I cry. It's hard to listen to this song without me crying because some of what 2pac says in this song, I can relate to. Listening to this song makes me appreciate my mother more and more, deeper and deeper. I can't fully explain everything in this little text box, but I dedicate this song to my mother. My mother raised me to be the young woman I am today, the young man my brother Avery is today, and the young growing man that my brother Ariq is growing to become and We love her for it :-) >>>  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byyWQEYzS2A
