Song | Neva Forget |
Artist | Cali Agents |
Album | How the West Was One |
作词 : Brewer, Green, Zamudio | |
I heard you went platinum on your first album | |
But tell me this: why is it now I heard you only sold about 200'000? | |
Now what's that tellin you? | |
That your fans was never down | |
Got you wonderin now | |
'Maybe I shoulda stayed underground?' | |
But you can't come back, cause real rap fans, they hate you | |
You over-did your image, now you can't stay true | |
All glittery and shiny lookin empty on the camera | |
With nothin to say, dancin with the mic like who..? | |
Y'all cats done fell off, and we in this for the long term | |
20 years from now the Cali Agents still burn | |
Next to whoever doubt dare the rep through | |
Planet Asia, Rasco, Cali Agents ghetto respect due | |
[CHORUS] | |
Never forget where you came from | |
Never forget where you got your name from | |
And the game from | |
The laws of nature won't bless you | |
You'll be forever unprotected | |
Rasco, Planet Asia, yeah, ghetto respected [x2] | |
[VERSE 2: Rasco] | |
Hey yo, praise the king, the real thing | |
I be ready to bring the quick swing like I'm still 16 | |
28, out of the gate | |
I tried to reach y'all but couldn't relate | |
We in a whole other state | |
Mind-travellin | |
While you niggas still battlin | |
The illest MCs you cats really ain't challengin | |
We on the mic, better get it in flight | |
You know excactly how it's done, we be keepin it tight | |
Yo, you keep it real, I be cuttin the deals | |
I bring it right up to your chest, give you somethin to feel | |
Still they wanna test, still dissin the West | |
The first thing that I learned: never listen to press | |
Because only as good as your last LP | |
The next time out your ass couldn't sell three | |
Now it's for free, the price came down quick | |
I flip it around and make the shit sound sick | |
Remember where you came from. don't act dumb | |
When a nigga ask | |
If you do it for the cash | |
Let it be known, I know half of y'all fake | |
The other y'all take the whole damn cake | |
[CHORUS] | |
[VERSE 3: Planet Asia & Rasco] | |
Now who the **** said the West can't rock? | |
It's Cali Agents in the house, y'all niggas best just jock | |
For all y'all fake-ass industry niggas that ride dicks | |
Of certain clicks, get a load of this brand new shit | |
Yeah, hot off the press, never settle for less | |
We bend half-assed niggas for a person undressed | |
The best, we double-team now livin a dream | |
And now you lookin at some shit that ain't never been seen | |
Befo', full-grown kings connect to get dough | |
But yo, the cash and the ass ain't the only thing we spit fo' | |
It's on again, it's back to emceeing again | |
Now I can walk through my own hood with a g in my pants | |
Cuffed up tight better, start livin it right | |
We here to take this whole thing to ridiculous heights | |
We might give it to some that can give it some run | |
But you can never ever forget exactly where you came from | |
[CHORUS] |
