| [00:40.70] |
I'm a brother with heart |
| [00:41.64] |
But I'd rather build first mad swift with darts |
| [00:44.22] |
Street brother with knowledge of self at nineteen |
| [00:46.88] |
Same jam master a hundred twenty degrees |
| [00:49.20] |
Been around for a minute in a land of gold |
| [00:51.71] |
Brooklyn East New York where I started to flow |
| [00:54.20] |
Coup Devilles rag time bottles with bells |
| [00:56.70] |
Feel me phat Caddy's like Sam Cassell |
| [00:59.10] |
Mad brothers my block was a flock of black sheeps |
| [01:01.81] |
Wasn't a house ni**a so we house the streets |
| [01:04.07] |
Getting knocked by the cops now and then we pop |
| [01:06.60] |
Few shots in the air let 'em know we was here |
| [01:09.05] |
Time flew but now I'm getting better with age |
| [01:11.48] |
Flip a new page time to unleash my rage |
| [01:13.93] |
Never give up never give up never give up |
| [01:16.97] |
Keep holding on gotta stay strong |
| [01:22.02] |
Keep your head up hung |
| [01:23.60] |
Yo look in my eyes |
| [01:25.08] |
Tell me what you see in the dark |
| [01:26.59] |
Want a move me out my seat like Rosa Parks |
| [01:28.86] |
Mentally enslaved brothers never change they ways |
| [01:31.27] |
Exploit the youth |
| [01:32.33] |
Now my vibes negative grips |
| [01:34.03] |
Buying in to the fake graph maternity stamps |
| [01:36.42] |
Cash it while I f**k it |
| [01:37.77] |
Yo I'll see you tomorrow |
| [01:38.87] |
Black woman you a queen |
| [01:40.15] |
But I doubt your strength |
| [01:41.27] |
Watching the two f**king |
| [01:42.48] |
Run around half nude |
| [01:43.54] |
Flashing guns and clips |
| [01:44.95] |
Diamonds and phat rocks |
| [01:46.25] |
African brothers died on them chopping blocks |
| [01:48.86] |
Don't despair now you wanna cover your ear |
| [01:51.22] |
Monkey see monkey do |

| [01:58.72] |
Never degraded my race |
| [01:59.87] |

| [02:01.09] |
Rappers more of a joke then a ray of hope |
| [02:03.53] |
I ain't sitting on my a** just to turn my cheek |
| [02:06.00] |
Hip-hop be the art and I'm the masterpiece |
| [02:08.56] |
You cats with fake images watch your back |
| [02:11.14] |
Practice what you preach |
| [02:12.32] |

Fronting like this sh*t all good |
| [02:33.21] |
Moving up in the world even switch the gas |
| [02:35.86] |

| [02:38.18] |
Ain't nothing change |
| [02:39.01] |
Nothing but the time of the year |
| [02:40.68] |
Still trot through the hood like Paul Revere |
| [02:43.23] |
Vision my vise my peeps is black and dilated |
| [02:45.43] |
Brothers quick to cross the streets intimidated |
| [02:48.38] |
Ain't my fault cause I got that New York walk |

New York talk blame it on society's fault |
| [02:52.98] |
Brothers stay bebbed up I'm prepared caliss |
| [02:55.46] |
Ready to give my life because I'm doing a bit |
| [02:57.91] |
Bagged the eighth |

Figured it was worth the weight |
| [03:00.23] |
Crack a bottle over the head of your fake role models |
| [03:03.04] |
Biting the such of must |
| [03:04.18] |
Give up ways and plus |
| [03:05.37] |

Keep holding on gotta stay strong keep your head up hung |
