| [00:28.700] |
Now I ain't tryna be the greatest |
| [00:30.640] |
I used to hate hip-hop... yup, because the women degraded |
| [00:34.570] |
But Too Short made me laugh, like a hypocrite I played it |
| [00:37.440] |
A hypocrite I stated, though I only recited half |
| [00:40.370] |
Omittin the word "bitch," cursin I wouldn't say it |
| [00:42.990] |
Me and dog couldn't relate, til a bitch I dated |
| [00:45.870] |
Forgive my favorite word for hers and hers alike |
| [00:48.740] |
But I learnt it from a song I heard and sorta liked |
| [00:51.890] |
Yeah, for the icin, glamorized drug dealin was appealin |
| [00:55.240] |
But the block club kept it from in front of our buildin |
| [00:57.530] |
Gangsta rap-based filmings became the buildin blocks |
| [01:00.530] |
For children with leakin ceilings catchin drippins with pots |
| [01:03.350] |
Coupled with compositions from Pac, Nas's "It Was Written" |
| [01:06.090] |
In the mix with my realities and feelings |
| [01:08.740] |
Living conditions, religion, ignorant wisdom and artistic vision |
| [01:12.690] |
I began to jot, tap the world and listen, it drop |
| [01:15.340] |
My mom can't feed me, my boyfriend beats me |
| [01:18.460] |
I have sex for money, the hood don't love me |
| [01:21.290] |
The cops wanna kill me, this nonsense built me |
| [01:24.200] |
And I got noooo place to gooo |
| [01:27.200] |
They bomb my village, they call us killers |
| [01:29.860] |
Took me off they welfare, can't afford they health care |
| [01:32.710] |
My teacher won't teach me, my master beats me |
| [01:35.730] |
And it huuurts meee soooul |
| [01:37.760] |
I had a ghetto boy bop, a Jay-Z boycott |
| [01:40.390] |
'Cause he said that he never prayed to God, he prayed to Gotti |
| [01:43.430] |
I'm thinkin godly, God guard me from the ungodly |
| [01:47.190] |
But by my 30th watchin of "Streets is Watchin" |
| [01:49.920] |
I was back to givin props again and that was botherin |
| [01:52.570] |
By this uncomfortable as a untouchable touchin you |
| [01:56.290] |
The theme songs that niggas hustle to seem wrong but these songs was comin true |
| [02:00.840] |
And it was all becoming cool |
| [02:02.280] |
I found a condom on the ground that Johns would cum into and thought |
| [02:05.590] |
What constitutes a prostitute is the pursuit of profit then they drop it |
| [02:09.130] |
The homie in a suit pat her on the butt, then rock it |
| [02:12.230] |
It seems I was seein the same scene adopted |
| [02:14.760] |
Prevalent in different things with the witnesses indifferent to stop it |
| [02:18.230] |
They said don't knock it, mind ya business |
| [02:20.860] |
His business isn't mine and that nigga pimpin got it |
| [02:24.400] |
They took my daughter, we ain't got no water |
| [02:27.110] |
I can't get hired, they cross on fire |
| [02:30.100] |
We all got suspended, I just got sentenced |
| [02:33.080] |
So I got noooo place to gooo |
| [02:35.860] |
They threw down my gang sign, I ain't got no hang time |
| [02:38.640] |
They talk about my sneakers, poisoned our leader |
| [02:41.150] |
My father ain't seen me, turn off my TV |
| [02:44.520] |
'Cause it huuurts meee soooul |
| [02:47.030] |
So through the Grim Reaper sickle sharpening |
| [02:49.300] |

| [03:09.800] |
Louis Vuitton modelin, pornographic actress honorin |
| [03:13.240] |
String theory ponderin, bullimic vomitin |
| [03:15.710] |
Catholic priest fondlin, pre-emptive bombin and Osama and no bombin them |
| [03:20.140] |
They breakin in my car again, deforestation and overloggin and |
| [03:23.770] |
Hennessy and Hypnotic swallowin, hydroponic coughin and |
| [03:28.370] |
All the world's ills, sittin on chrome 24-inch wheels, like that |
| [03:33.180] |
They say I'm infected, this is why I injected |
| [03:36.040] |
I had it aborted, we got deported |
| [03:38.990] |
My laptop got spyware, they say that I can't lie here |
