Lyrics
I don't beg nobody pardon to be confident I'm just saying my shit didn't exist until I did it I'm the one that's suffered for the politics that I done spit I ain't quit, I hit every continent and bodied it School of hard knocks equipped and I ain't get a scholarship Bet I had it poppin' since hip hop was on that power fist Then when y'all got counterfeit, I switched and did the opposite Now I'm on some outsider shit, ain't that about a bitch I ain't never lied about what my skin is, it's obvious I'm just so obsessed with bringin power to the powerless I insist; I would never operate on cowardice Rather chop my wrist than be afraid to take this kind of risk Every single line I ever spit, I put it on my kids On my blood, on my tears All that pain, all them fears All them shows, all them years I was chose for this here Maybe I'm a dreamer that's exactly what my problem is But when I do dream, believe I see it all too clear You can keep your money, I just wanted y'all to hear And remember...ugh... Thank heaven for blessin me with a heavy flow Twelve years old, I was already hella professional Let it go, follow the regular road, hell no Listen close to my own/ heart like a stethoscope Wrote myself an episode/ set it and lettin 'em fold Turned over every stone/ better than ever before And every sentence I wrote/ shot it direct for your throat Made every effort to blow/ you best be ready to go ????? never get the doe/ should've known Didn't piss and moan/ bit my lip, when out and built my own Hit the road and did the globe/ so many times I've lost count Time that I done been at home/ and didn't recognize my house Doctor said I shouldn't perform/ I just tuned 'em all out Temperature 104/ rhyme 'til I fall out I destroyed my vocal chords/ I'mma stand tall and shout Never let it go/ until they know what I'm bout I give it all and ain't never runnin out If you listen close I'll teach you what this love's about Just remember... Y'all know I ....Got that mic On a mic/ all my life/ drop it like Glowing out my eyes at night Come on now what's right is right Always say it's darkest right before the dawn Come on write/ Till I reach my highest height I'll not go out without a fight Bear witness I gets it in/ tear them bitches limb from limb Carry this through thick and thin and just jump in and sink or swim Ain't nobody realer than/ realest always recognize Best believe the slouchers that doubt me just keep me energized They hold me in cages but my soul is only strengthened My whole vocation, I rose to those occasions Growing short of patience/ my ultimate motivation And no I don't expect no open invitation But you gon' have to go bed just knowing that you're hating You're ignoring greatness; that's no exaggeration Allow me to stretch your imagination Any way you look at it this shit is amazing Remember..who we are..
