| [00:15.97] |
God is great and I am grateful |
| [00:18.25] |
|
| [00:19.25] |
I can never be so hateful |
| [00:21.06] |
I got some cute kids and a woman who is faithful |
| [00:24.18] |
Food up on my table my bank account is stable |
| [00:27.12] |
Royalty check strange music is the label |
| [00:30.03] |
Music on point so now your boy is able |
| [00:33.06] |
To be boradcast on your satellite and cable |
| [00:36.04] |
Radio friendly the phrase used to offend me |
| [00:39.08] |
But now I'm getting spins 'cuz I know I had it in me |
| [00:42.20] |
Industry on envy my foes wanna friend me |
| [00:45.09] |
Money saying spend me the homie saying give me |
| [00:48.04] |
And I would still be rapping if I never made a penny |
| [00:51.01] |
Believe in what I say and what I say I make it real |
| [00:53.64] |
If I could do it all over I would still take the deal |
| [00:56.77] |
For that type of opportunity a lot of kids would kill |
| [00:59.95] |
But I would never murder I would much rather yield |
| [01:03.01] |
|
| [01:04.36] |
I don't wanna rule the realm |
| [01:05.82] |
I just wanna ride the storm and let god take the helm |
| [01:08.85] |
Tell my sons to be better than their old man was |
| [01:12.05] |
And pray to get to do the things an old man does |
| [01:14.98] |
I don't wanna hide my gray I don't wanna dye my hair |
| [01:17.93] |
'Cuz a lot of my homies died before they got there |
| [01:20.97] |
I carry on the legacy my only goal to set us free |
| [01:24.12] |
And drop another classic after 30 years of prenacy |
| [01:27.19] |
Classic is creation all creation is a classic |
| [01:29.94] |
Especially when the track is tuned it to the master |
| [01:32.98] |
The master being love and love being light |
| [01:35.70] |
And everyone's got opinions we all love being right |
| [01:38.85] |
Hell we love what we learn making wrong turns in life |
| [01:41.98] |
I earn what I earn I ain't concerned with the hype |
| [01:45.07] |
Fight with a open heart love with a open mind |
| [01:48.08] |
You gotta trust that you know when to start and where to draw the line |
| [01:51.78] |
And when it's showtime make peace with it |
| [01:54.21] |
Never worry bout the perfect life let the priest live it |
| [01:57.41] |
Give it time let it work itself out |
| [01:59.84] |
Meditate on the better things never dwell in self-doubt |
| [02:03.19] |
|
| [02:03.86] |
Sitting here waiting on you |
| [02:05.64] |
Because if love brought us up what's hatin' gonna do |
| [02:08.66] |
So you should hate a few and try to love many more |
| [02:12.25] |
|
| [02:12.77] |
And always let karma settle any score |
| [02:15.35] |
|
| [02:42.99] |
Give me war I give you peace |
| [02:45.78] |
We give the most to those who need the least |
| [02:48.75] |
You didn't speak up when they held me down |
| [02:51.34] |
So you should keep your mouth shut while I hold the crown |
| [02:54.45] |
And if you helped me down when I was downtrodden |
| [02:56.98] |
You'll always be around you'll never be forgotten |
| [02:59.99] |
I put fame last and I made god first |
| [03:02.97] |
'Cuz that's how my brother said relationships should work |
| [03:06.07] |
Working overtime 'cuz I'm hoping over time |
| [03:08.77] |
That my work will respected and the world will know that I'm |
| [03:11.96] |
The california kid that went and did the impossible |
| [03:14.95] |
The coast crowned me king 'cuz I conquered every obstacle |
