I ain’t trying to bust a clever rhyme
Just telling you what’s on my mind
Feels like I’d be at wits end
With half the shit that goes in
Please don’t send me away
The only thing I wanted was an ear
To hear the concerns on my chest
Yeah that’s right feels the misguided aggravation of the nation
Converted me to a criminal cop that tried to kill hip-hop
The other day I asked the fuck is wrong with me
Took a long look in the mirror couldn’t see the faults in my complexion or cracks in my skin
Guess people were judging me by who I
Was not who I am
Before the shit hit the fan I was at the top of my game
With the fame and glory at its peak
Yeah that’s right I’d be spilling out my heart
But don’t get used this side of me Cus Sad to say
It only seems to come around once a blue moon and solar eclipse
I ask myself “where to now”
Got no reply just the blank stare of my reflection
Even as a kid I’ve been through a lot
Almost like through hell and back
But know this is what makes the man
Even if you fall flat on your face
Get back up and shake the dust off your feet
Yeah let’em know that you’re standing stall
Show’em the scars Show’em the bruises
Let’em do the talking and tell the tale
Just another thing adding to the growing glory
Please get it through it your thick skull
I ain’t giving up Cus Sooner or later I’ll be
Rolling like the big shots
Rockin the bling and pimping the chicks
From this day I’d be joining the business and
Y’all better welcome me to the family
So let me make the promise
To be the best that I could be and
The illest in the industry
This is it the moment
The moment that I’m gonna shine
Cos today’s gonna be start of my legacy
