"Pac's Life" is a single by Tupac Shakur from his posthumously released album of the same name. Produced by L. T. Hutton, it includes guest appearances from R&B singer Ashanti and rapper T.I. The second 2Pac verse was recycled from a song titled "This Life I Lead". That song was released as part of the Pac's Life album in 2006. T.I. said on an interview that working on a Tupac song was an honor, as he idolized him while growing up.

On MTV Australia, "Pac's Life" peaked at the number 1 spot on the "Hip Hop Countdown", beating new releases from Jay-Z, Eminem & 50 Cent, and Nas.
