Tupac Shakur's The Rose That Grew From Concrete

The message of the poem, “The Rose that Grew from Concrete”, by Tupac Shakur, is to relate to the people in bad environments, who have trouble successeeding in life. The rose symbolizes that one person who accomplished their dreams and thrived. The usual environment of where a rose grows is in a sunny place where the rose can get its nutrients in order to grow, but tis rose grew from concrete, breaking nature’s law. Nature’s law is only people from a good environment can succeed. The concrete was not only the rose’s environment, but its obsticales too. In the lines three and four it says, “Funny it seems, but by keeping its dreams, it learned to breathe fresh air.” Therefore, the rose never gave up on striving for glory, and because of its
resilience, it got to thrive in its own glory of making it to the surface. Finally, in the very last line it says, “”...when no one else evn cared.” “No one” symbolizes the people i your life who wanted you to fail and did not care about your success. In addition this whole poem symbolizes how a person from a bad environment, can face their obsticales head on, without quiting, to acheive their goal. Even when people said they would fail, you can still thrive in glory.
