(feat. Steele) |
|
(Steele) |
|
Let it be known, you can't keep a good man down |
|
Hard time, hardly wear me down |
|
The strong survive, what comes around, go around |
|
When the going get rough, we ride, lord, hold me down |
|
Blood, sweat and pain, take it and strive |
|
Nothin to do, it's breakin' my pride |
|
My eyes on the prize, been through, tribulations and trials |
|
I realize, I'm still gonna rise |
|
(Buckshot) |
|
I need one hundred percent, undivided attention |
|
Provided you mention, Black Moon is back |
|
And all the questions, like Smif-N-Wessun |
|
Changin' their name to Cocoa Brovaz, did it ruin the track? |
|
Let's think back, like the song I made |
|
So we can reminisce the rights and the all wrongs I made |
|
Don't get it twisted, I don't progress shit |
|
I don't remember, but I don't forget, shit |
|
That's how the game go, things get harder to spit |
|
What's real love, without pain, the part of the shit |
|
Who knows, few blow, few will get dough |
|
It's the reason so many rappers never move with the flow |
|
But I've shown, that I'm prone, to keep going |
|
Cuz I flown, this goes out to you |
|
This goes out to you |
|
(Chorus x2: Steele, Buckshot) |
|
This goes out to you, and out to you |
|
Who didn't believe I wouldn't achieve |
|
My goals, yo, I'm so, out of control |
|
I just don't know |
|
(Buckshot) |
|
I started out with nothing, got a little talent |
|
Came up with something, got a little violent |
|
It was hardly thumpin', everybody fakin' moves |
|
While I'm makin' moves and that party jumpin' |
|
What part of me bluffin, huh? I don't see one |
|
See guns, he run, leave sons with nothing |
|
Stranded - handle it, stress on my chest |
|
Like a tight lamel lid, I just - |
|
Breathe in, breathe out, see what he about |
|
And if there's no cheese, we leave him out |
|
Cuz niggaz see the route that I'm on |
|
Big movers for the kid to rule, everything abroad |
|
See I was taught to write everything I saw |
|
Been around the world, from the US to Singapore |
|
You can learn a thing or more, from the veteran |
|
No calm, wanna learn no more, just get a pen |
|
(Chorus x2) |
|
(Buckshot) |
|
Me and Dru hooked up in '93 |
|
Started out as a management, then a record company |
|
Even then they wasn't bumpin' me, but I ain't give a fuck |
|
Still represented, every time I had to give them Buck |
|
On stage in the studio, or on screen |
|
They stayed out of sight, out of mind, if you off the scene |
|
Knah'mean, I do too much for me to be enlightened |
|
That's the reason, when you see me, you see me at night |
|
Walkin', by myself, spliff lit by my lip, gun by my belt |
|
Yellin' out, Duck Down is the label |
|
Plus a million soldiers with me, nigga |
|
Now that we able to make moves, and slay crews |
|
And pay dues, cuz they rule |
|
This goes out to you, this goes out to you |
|
(Chorus x2) |
