To the uninitiated, this sounds like a paradox. On one side, you have Tupac Shakur (2Pac): the raw, poetic, revolutionary voice of 1990s West Coast hip-hop. On the other, you have Alan Walker: the mysterious, hooded Norwegian DJ who defined mid-2010s electronic dance music with melancholic synth melodies. What do they have in common?
Chorus (Alan Walker-style): "I'm faded, lost in the haze Memories of you, they still remain I'm searching for a way to break the pain But it's hard to find, when I'm still revived" 2pac ft alan walker faded lyrics
I cried when my brother died, it was a terrible sight But a real n * a fight for what's right, through the darkest night They say time heals all wounds, but my scars still show In a world full of gimmicks, I still keep it real, you know That’s why I gotta speak my mind, even if they hate Left behind a legacy before it's too late And as the piano fades away into the synth light I’m just a soul searching for peace, ready for the afterlife To the uninitiated, this sounds like a paradox
