Now a while ago, | |
I had to do a little bid | |
Cause of the things | |
I wanted, as a little kid | |
I wanted to be like the dealers a lot | |
Cause of the things they had and the respect that they got | |
All the girls used to jock 'em | |
And I wondered why my parents used to knock 'em | |
I had a talent, or a hobby you should say | |
I like rap, or poetry, but anyway | |
Stay away from drugs, | |
I paid it no mind | |
I wanted to hustle for bread, instead of writin rhymes | |
So I said to hell with it | |
Instead of stayin away from drugs | |
I was sellin it | |
I was out all day until the job was done | |
Instead of rockin the parties | |
I was robbin 'em | |
The females, paid me no mind, not a | |
Giant Andre | |
Barnes at the time | |
But the rock started sellin, the dough was comin in | |
Dealers wanted in, girls started runnin in | |
Some said | |
I'm crazy how | |
I'm livinI must be, crazy cash and crazy women | |
Yeah my gear was right | |
They called me | |
Andre the | |
Giant and it wasn't cause of my height | |
Losin G's in celo | |
I never sweat it; cause my connect got kilos | |
My bank, two thou that's what's in it | |
Rollin celo, headcrack makin | |
G's in a minute | |
Oh yeah I'm all for dis | |
Yeah I'm handsome, but the money made me gorgeous | |
Now the girls wanna see me | |
The little kids around the block wanna be me | |
I was chillin, in thousand dollar coats | |
I had links and ropes, and yo the shit was dope | |
I had the jewels oh did | |
I have the jewels | |
The talk of the town, the neighborhood news | |
But friends weren't true inside | |
They were passengers, goin along for the ride | |
And it makes you say damn! | |
Because I feel so hard | |
I had scars on my hands | |
I thought | |
I'd be fine | |
But I got bagged and snagged and then | |
I had to do a little time | |
Friends don't hang it's a waste of time | |
I got one dollar, one girl and some great rhymes | |
I pursued the wrong dream | |
Now to make a fast buck | |
I gotta scheme | |
Find a celo game, yo | |
Bank I gotta buck | |
I ace to a deuce, yeah that's just my luck | |
I gotta go right and exact | |
Instead of a package, | |
I wanted a mic and a hype track | |
Instead of robbin the parties, | |
I'm rippin 'em | |
MC's were gettin done, every week a different one | |
It's time to put my talent to use | |
There's no excuse, | |
I just gotta get loose | |
And now I'm really convinced | |
I got raw with | |
Lord Finesse, and been straight since | |
Now you see how | |
I lost it | |
But I bounced back, you might not be as fortunate | |
So take heed my friend | |
Before you take a shortcut that leads to a dead end | |
Take my advice cause the | |
Giant said so | |
And remember -- there's more than one way out the ghetto |
