Dear Santa, the first single from the upcoming 2pac's Very Gangsta Xmas Album (which has, unfortunately, been delayed until Xmas 2008)
Lyrics:
You are appreciated
[Verse One: 2Pac]
When I was young, me and Santa had beef
Six years old no presents in the tree
Though back at the time, I never thought I'd see his face
Ain't a man alive that could take Santa's place
Suspended from school; a bad boy at home, I was a fool
on your naughty list, breakin all the rules
I shed tears with my baby sister
Over the years we was poorer than the other little kids
And even though we wanted different toys, the same shit
When we didn't get toys we'd blame Saint Nick
I reminisce on wish lists wrote, it was hell
Especially considering I couldn't spell
But who'd think in kindergarten? Heeey!
I see the gi joe I wanted, one day
And you got stuck in the chimney, that's right
Wouldn't happen if your skinny, fat guy
And even though as a fat man, santa
Always put a toy in my black hand, santa
I finally understand
be around once a year, ain't easy to raise a man
You always was committed
An old white dude in the north pole, tell me how ya did it
There's no way I can pay you back
But the plan is to show you that I understand
You are appreciated
[Chorus: Reggie Green & "Sweet Franklin" w/ 2Pac]
Santa...
Don't cha know we love ya? dear santa
Dear Santa
Place no one above ya, dear santa
You are appreciated
Don't cha know we love ya
[Verse Two: 2Pac]
Pour out some milk and cookies and I reminsce, cause through the
banter
I can always depend on my santa
And when it seems that I'm hopeless
You give me toys that can get me back in focus
When I was greedy as a little kid
To keep me happy there's no limit to the toys youd give
And all my childhood memories
Are full of all the sweet things you gave to me
And even though I act craaazy in essence
I gotta thank the Lord that you gave me presents
There are no words that can express how I feel
You never were fake to me, always stayed real
And I appreciate, how you raised me
And all the extra toys that you gave me
Even though I was a bad boyyyy, santa
Never gave me any bad toyyyyys, santa
I wish I could take the pain away
If you make it through Christmas night there's a brighter day
Everything will be alright if ya hold on
It's a struggle everyday, gotta roll on
And there's no way I can pay you back
But my plan is to show you that I understand
You are appreciated
[Chorus]
Now I gotta go cuz I gotta write my wish list
See you again on the next christmas
Chorus
This is a pretty decent sounding parody. Maybe you could hook up a better mic - that would improve it tremendously.
and damn... some of these Pac fans are so sensitive! Relax, it's an internet video.

Thanks, this was one of his earliest Xmas recordings, hopefully the newer ones have better audio. As for the Pac fans, I think they're just not ready to accept his more sensitive side.

If you would like to buy 2pac's Very Gangsta Christmas Album, just stay patient. We are still compiling all of his old recordings and it should be out next Christmas.
