[00:43.13] Poetry that's a part of me retardedly bop
[00:45.30] I drop the ancient manifested hip-hop straight off the block
[00:47.98] I reminisce on park jams my man was shot for his sheep coat
[00:50.60] Childhood lesson make me see him drop in my weed smoke
[00:53.86] It's real grew up in trife life did times or white lines

[00:59.29] Chill on the block with Cog-nac hold strap
[01:01.66] With my peeps that's into drug money market into rap
[01:04.52] No sign of the beast in the blue Chrysler I guess that means peace
[01:08.33] For niggaz no sheisty vice to just snipe ya
[01:10.77] Start off the dice-rollin mats for craps to cee-lo

[01:57.13] Live amongst no roses only the drama for real
[01:59.38] A nickel-plate is my fate my medicine is the ganja
[02:03.49] Here's my basis my razor embraces many faces
[02:05.55] Your telephone blowin black stitches or fat shoelaces
[02:07.86] Peoples are petrol dramatic automatic fo'-fo' I let blow
[02:12.29] And back down po-po when I'm vexed so
[02:14.41] My pen taps the paper then my brain's blank
[02:16.73] I see dark streets hustlin brothers who keep the same rank
[02:19.59] Pumpin for somethin some uprise plus some fail
[02:22.47] Judges hangin niggaz uncorrect bails for direct sales
[02:24.53] My intellect prevails from a hangin cross with nails
[02:27.73] I reinforce the frail with lyrics that's real
[02:30.05] Word to Christ a disciple of streets trifle on beats
[02:32.79] I decifer prophecies through a mic and say peace
[02:35.04] I hung around the older crews while they sling smack to dingbats
[02:38.47] They spoke of Fat Cat that nigga's name made bell rings black
[02:41.90] Some fiends scream about Supreme Team a Jamaica Queens thing
[02:44.52] Uptown was Alpo son heard he was kingpin yo
[02:46.89] F**k 'rap is real' watch the herbs stand still
[02:48.89] Never talkin to snakes cause the words of man kill
[02:51.54] True in the game as long as blood is blue in my veins
[02:54.72] I pour my Heineken brew to my deceased crew on memory lane
[02:57.91] "Now let me take a trip down memory lane"
