2. How does an individual rise above hardship according to Tupac? Have you ever felt like a “rose that grew from concrete,” as described by Tupac Shakur? If so, what was the difficult situation that you faced, and how did you rise above it? If not, who is someone else you might describe as a “rose that grew from concrete”? What makes them similar to this rose?

The way I see it, from this question you are expecting a personal answer right? alright, here this is a real one I faced.

back when I was getting prepared for my college entry examination, the some tutors of mine, most of the other students at the lecture and my idiotic relatives were all trying to discourage me.

I was a naughty, crazy kid back in the days, so they were pointing out to that fact, digging out all the things from past and were making fun of me. always saying "little henry is gonna fail this time too", and blah blah blah

but my mom was with me, and soon I learnt that what they say only matters if i pay attention to them! you know what? I stopped caring at all! moreover, I didn't try "so hard" for the exam too because I wasn't gonna change my life, the pace of my life and how I live it to show others that I can or can't do what they want!

I was chilling! and had the best days of my life! calmly and in a relaxed way I did the exam, and then, i got my entrance! its a super competitive exam yet i made it!

All because i didn't listen to the others and was not trying to Prove my self to anyone! the only person you have to prove yourself is yourself and not anyone else. be your self, and everything you ever wanted will right be there for you!

Hope this will help!
