|
What is this, what is this, what is this (Ooh) |
|
What is this, what is this, what is this (Ooh) |
|
(Hook 1) |
|
What is this I'm appraochin' what is this appraochin' me |
|
All the time I'm out on the grind, now what is this supposed to be |
|
(MJG: Verse 1) |
|
I'm a Memphis born pimp, nigga don't nobody wanna flex |
|
Raised up in OrangeMound, live in T-E-X-A-S, breakin' necks |
|
Ain't no tellin' what the future hold to be |
|
When he or she tries to bring they stupid shit to MJG |
|
I thought that we could win the war, conquer the battle, take the pain |
|
Struggle up through the ****in' strain, beat the heat, soak the rain |
|
Up, AHHHH I feel I wanna breathe again |
|
But soon as i come up in life you tend to watch my dividends |
|
Hopin' I slip and fall just so you can capitalize |
|
Can't thank about shit plus it's nationalized, in the skies |
|
Phony shikes will stick you right before your eyes |
|
No surprise, all they wanted was a money rise |
|
Sunny dried out game hustlers on they last leg |
|
Game dead all that shit they say be the same said shit |
|
Sometimes, sometimes I feel I'm at the bottom of the list, what is this |
|
(Hook 2) |
|
What is this, reality or just a dream |
|
Everything ain't what it seems |
|
Picture it on a tv screen |
|
What is this, visions of a broken hope |
|
Strategies of the most serious wisdom just a joke |
|
(Hook 1) |
|
(Verse 2) |
|
Who would've thought in the midnight hour I could exercise a pen |
|
Bring the life to sound effects, feel the thunder and the wind |
|
Sets of ten flip ya mind strengthen up ya weakened cells |
|
Generate ya inner spirit, leave ya with some shit to tell |
|
Still it seems all my dreams come with ****in' side effects |
|
I thought I seen the worst but I ain't seen a damn thang yet |
|
A lot of thieves outta nowhere, first-time MC's should thank God |
|
For first-time platinum, that shit is hard |
|
Hell let me put a bug in ya ear, catch the buzz |
|
With a lot of MC's go straight today ain't what they was |
|
But what they is, the lessons I learn as my life I live |
|
Ain't worried bout when I'm gon' receive it I gots to give |
|
Where ya conscience at how do you expect to prosper long |
|
For blessings sent to you for reasons that got you gone |
|
Damn, I thought I had the game tight in my fist |
|
Came to find that I was tied in the twist, what is this |
|
(Hook 2) |
|
(Hook 1) |
|
(Verse 3) |
|
How come every MC feel he got the skills to sell a mill |
|
But when my record sell a mill ah hell that shit just can't be real |
|
I'm flabergasted, am I the only rapper not afraid |
|
To come with what I feel in my heart and get paid |
|
No enemies, at least that I know of, I'm for sho' of |
|
If you hate I'ma show love, kick back and blow bud |
|
I look over shit that the people say who don't know me |
|
Just like the hustlers who looked over them before me |
|
You owe me, I owe you, we owe each other |
|
So how the **** you think I owe you something |
|
Cause you don't owe me nothin' |
|
You bluff, with ya career skills steps to be |
|
Take it, I'm in it for the longevity |
|
You racing, misplacin' thangs you was taught |
|
For the thangs of the world, gettin' sold bein' bought |
|
Resist temptations cause temptation is a BITCH |
|
Where am I (Where am I) am I, what is this |
|
(Hook 2) |

(Hook 1) x3 |
