Talkin about I be rappin off track
Some of you square suckers be
Do your due dilligence in your research
Respect my rank, you got none of that
Ask they ass, they know me
Bet you they tell you "That boy
Right there got flows and creativity
Originality is a must whenever I bust
Before I got into the rap game
I was hustlin on the hush
Penitentiary chances, shackles
About triple- beam scales
drought seasons and shit like that
Might not know how to freestyle but
My rhymes'll paint a picture
I'm a fuckin game spitter
Pandemonium and chaos the price
That come with the package,
Grew up on $hort and Freddie B
Dolemite and Blowfly, KRS and Ice T
Melle Mel and Spoonie, just
I paved the way for indie labels
Ask Master P and Birdman what
Out the trunk independently
Sold hundreds of thousands of records
Me and my uncle St charles
Suga, D- Shot, Legit, The Click
But hold up , it don't stop there
If I got a dollar for every word
I made up I'd be a billionaire
I'm the past and the present
I was sayin shit 20 years ago
Y'all niggas just now sayin
I done seen rappers come and go
Get they 15 minutes of fame
Then you don't hear about
Yeah, I done had my ups and downs
But the cold part about it
I don't know why these suckers
To get my mumblin ass out the way
When I got a passion for rappin, partner
I don't do it just for pay
You oughta come to one of my concerts
You oughta come to one of my shows
I do my old school and my new school
Songs and all of them bitches go
They don't build 'em like me no mo'
A living legend, collection of classics
Thought that you should know
You can't erase me out of history
I'm from the same place as CC
If you blink you might miss it
You all I need you all I need
Third verse, more than half my life
Since teenagers, I gotta thank my wife
Since we was little young cubs
Born in the struggle, broke
Livin off of love this is the actual
Not a non- theatrical movie
Even though they divorced
My mama and my daddy my sister,
I love y'all, and my fans when
Were down with my futuristic ass
And all my real ones with some balls
Went out funkin, beefin, feudin
Niggas made some phone calls
Ratata tat, put him on his back
The rap game's been good with me
Stuck when me when I didn't
You lames can say what you like
I gotta be doin somethin right
That means I'm not a overnight
I broke barriers for independence,
They probably won't 'preciate me
