[00:05.20]White boy
[00:13.50]yeah
[00:15.31]White boy
[00:17.54]Nine deuce was the year my ears got introduced to rap
[00:19.17]Stealing instrumentals off singles, I’d use the tracks
[00:20.98]MC Creu, Mellow Man, and Jeru the Damaja
[00:23.00]"Tears" from the King & I, was the few I had
[00:24.97]Practice in my room for hours, improve my craft
[00:27.02]On every artist’s album that I heard
[00:29.44]On the song, breaking dawn, number fourteen
[00:30.68]Till death do us part
[00:31.76]Wishing that I was from the fifth ward of Houston bad
[00:33.33]A white kid from the burbs, bumping Freeport boys
[00:35.45]Too much trouble to see that our squad could set
[00:37.24]Up in class repping bum stickity bum, giggity gangster
[00:40.93]Gangster, biting Spice 1 and Das EFX
[00:42.42]Kriss Kross and Method Redman in my headphones
[00:43.47]Blasting "Time Time 4 Sum Aksion"
[00:45.66]That’s when then the teacher would get mad
[00:47.56]And she would kick me out the classroom
[00:48.95]The bell rang, start a cypher in the bathroom
[00:51.11]Up inside the gym, took turns spitting
[00:53.12]We’d beat the bleacher with our hands, tryna keep the beat
[00:54.31]Only white dude that went to my school
[00:55.81]That spit, proved I’m sick, and I will eat MCs, I have room
[00:58.07]To grow, the talent show, I rocked the vest like Treach
[01:00.10]Miami Hurricane hat while I held the mic
[01:02.07]Haters talking shit like who, this ain’t Vanilla Ice
[01:04.20]And I don’t care if he’s nice, on my life
[01:06.21]I don’t like no white rappers
[01:07.65]Growing up it was tough, my family said that I sucked
[01:09.40]They gave up, I was just a white rapper
[01:10.84]But I created a buzz, cause I bust
[01:13.48]In the booth, I go nuts, but I’m just a white rapper
[01:14.87]With no way to be dope, and I know that you think I’m a joke
[01:19.35]Cause I’m just a white rapper
[01:15.99]Put my heart on the stage, on the page
[01:17.57]But at the end of the day, I’m still just a white rapper
[01:20.03]In ninth grade, a pimp gave me a better attempt
[01:24.86]I was convinced I’d get a deal
[01:26.07]My skills improved a hundred percent
[01:27.35]Back then, nobody had studio equipment in their crib
[01:29.05]I was the only one that did
[01:31.94]I spent my life in that basement
[01:33.02]On cruise road, up in eagle point
[01:34.29]Cops labeled it a gang house, we was doing music
[01:36.04]We dropped out, dreaming of being on it
[01:38.30]31, I would go out and perform at
[01:39.82]Open mics, when no one’s white
[01:41.67]No one likes to clap or give you dap
[01:42.71]Clubs you be scared to go inside
[01:43.98]Stood at a spot in the hood, 20 miles from home
[01:45.66]Waiting to finally hit the stage and blow their mind
[01:48.11]Performed for 5 people, or 20 at best
[01:50.06]Sending demo tapes to labels, a ton of rejects
[01:51.77]A ton of fake record companies execs on my talent
[01:54.04]They tried their best to convince me they had something to invest
[01:56.40]And just wasting my time, phony managers scamming us
[01:58.39]Girlfriend and family, the verdict unanimous
[02:00.33]To "stop rapping you piece of shit, it’s not happening
[02:02.51]Now act white and grow up, are you tryn'na embarrass us?"
[02:04.54]So I told that girl bye and was back on my stride
[02:06.45]Rhymes kept getting better, my buzz was hard to deny
[02:08.26]Almost quit and when I did got introduced to the guy
[02:10.56]That put me on, and he been through the same struggle as I
[02:12.77]A white rapper
[02:13.82]Growing up it was tough, my family said that I sucked
[02:14.25]They gave up, I was just a white rapper
[02:18.05]But I created a buzz, cause I bust
[02:19.49]In the booth, I go nuts, but I’m just a white rapper
[02:22.29]With no way to be dope, and I know that you think I’m a joke
[02:24.63]Cause I’m just a white rapper
[02:27.56]Put my heart on the stage, on the page
[02:28.53]But at the end of the day, I’m still just a white rapper
[02:29.64]Now the rap game is flooded with rappers
[02:31.76]From every nationality, a ton of them crackers
[02:33.55]The fact that I finally came up is miraculous
[02:36.43]Twenty years later my name is becoming established
[02:37.87]My album is on the rack at Best Buy
[02:39.43]I was at the BET awards, I was sitting right next to
[02:41.61]Luda and Rick Ross, but who would have thought
[02:43.52]I was just at Jim & Nick's
[02:44.68] flipping chicken tenders and French fries
[02:47.06]I used to hate when people asked me what I do for a living
[02:48.48]It feels great to tell em you’re a musician
[02:49.95]Until they ask what type of music, I tell em I rap
[02:51.76]Then they laugh, looking at me, they be like "who are you kidding?"
[02:54.08]I be like "Google me bitch,"
[02:55.31]They always compare us white boys to one another
[02:57.01]Is your music like his?
[02:58.18]You should be rich, freestyle, making stupid requests
[02:59.84]Before I made it in music I never used to have shit
[03:02.33]Now I got my own crib, I can afford my car
[03:03.44]Fans say my music helps them when they’re going through hard times
[03:06.08]I speak my mind even when I’m going too far
[03:08.45]Even though a part of me agree with Lord Jamar
[03:11.40]We are guests in hip hop, I’m appreciative
[03:12.69]That you finally let us in the crib
[03:14.50]But I busted my ass to get respect for my craft
[03:16.06]In interviews they never forget to mention this
[03:18.46]And I’m just a white rapper
[03:19.82]Growing up it was tough, my family said that I sucked
[03:21.68]They gave up, I was just a white rapper
[03:23.97]But I created a buzz, cause I bust
[03:25.44]In the booth, I go nuts, but I’m just a white rapper
[03:27.62]With no way to be dope, and I know that you think I’m a joke
[03:31.00]Cause I’m just a white rapper
[03:32.91]Put my heart on the stage, on the page
[03:34.55]But at the end of the day, I’m still just a white rapper
