I was young,I was surviving the times |
| [01:52.137] |
Waiting for my moment,I was destined to shine |
| [01:54.399] |
Little ray had an NSX,I was hoping I'm next |
| [01:56.923] |
Wanting bracelets,never had a rope on my neck |
| [01:59.465] |
Unless I was holding Taiyeh chain--rest in peace |
| [02:01.974] |
Even though that night you flipped on us |
| [02:03.716] |
You warned us if you came back and we still on the corners |
| [02:06.388] |
We goners,moving on to... |
| [02:08.692] |
Move your arm in your watch to another time on the block |
| [02:10.991] |
'Cause this 40 side where they say shorty rhyme |
| [02:13.020] |
Tragedy he used to come through all the time |
| [02:15.402] |
I'm talking Juice Crew,not what the word define |
| [02:17.631] |
He had a sister named Erin,for sure was fine |
| [02:19.914] |
That was my first crush,I bought my first mic |
| [02:22.167] |
I wrote my first verse,I was about nine |
| [02:24.426] |
I was about mine,fantasize house-buying |
| [03:03.183] |
Met Paul,he wore some big glasses |
| [03:05.323] |
Him and Melquan took me where G Rap lived |
| [03:07.853] |
I was happy,just getting some answers |
| [03:09.897] |
I ain't even know what a record advance was |
| [03:12.513] |
I'm seeing hoes sexing in the studio bathroo |
| [03:14.774] |
With rap dudes,thinking wow she moved me |
| [03:16.867] |
Same girl then,right now's a groupie |
| [03:19.142] |
Back then,she was like the star in the movie |
| [03:21.439] |
Large jewelery and expensive Gucci |
| [03:23.694] |
Next stop,paid in full posse recruits me |
| [03:25.985] |
Knew they were some millionaires,their ropes were dookie |
| [03:28.072] |
Eric B man looking like touch-it-he-shoot-me |
| [03:30.378] |
You see,every time Ra didn't show |
| [03:32.764] |
I get to record demos at attempts to blow |
| [03:35.102] |
I wonder could they tell,how did they know |
| [03:37.945] |
Sixteen years later,here I go |
