Mic check 1-2-1-2 |
|
Mic check 1-2-1-2 |
|
I been away for a while but I'm back again |
|
I'd like to take a lil' (1-2-1-2) back again |
|
I been away for a while but I'm back again |
|
Yo, yo (yeah) yo (yeah) |
|
(Verse 1) |
|
I sit high in chairs, scribe in air |
|
They say I'm a young Nasir minus nine years |
|
In my ear I hear the words of Uncle ??? |
|
He said, "Don't be something you're not and you'll do fine here" |
|
To the top? Yeah, I'm tryin' to take my rhymes there |
|
That place in my mind, I spend so much time there |
|
When I was young I used to look up to fools |
|
Got older and wiser, now I look up to ??? |
|
Hand me downs, dress sharp, had the hook up from ??? |
|
Never really had time to pick them books up at school |
|
Then sun turned to rain, teeth got knocked |
|
Broke the family's heart to see him locked in them chains |
|
That's when I started to change before I started to shave |
|
Gun targets your frame |
|
Felony youth caught in a game |
|
I thought it was live until I realized |
|
Out here how quick your fortune can sway |
|
The fortune of Gray, murdered in a tortuous way |
|
I miss you homeboy, more than words can say |
|
Those who did that to you in Hell deserve to lay |
|
And I often pray I too don't meet the same fate |
|
I write with the eyes of my beautiful grandmother |
|
Teef, you ain't my cousin, you my damn brother |
|
Mom, you're my hero |
|
When I think of all you've done for me I swear I get tearful |
|
Mo I'm proud of you |
|
Your spirit it so strong, never let no one take that out of you |
|
Baby doll we still holdin' on, growin' strong |
|
Ain't no way I can do this shit with out you boo |
|
My crew ???, CP, E-Mon |
|
??? Rhyme, Phenom |
|
Time for all the bullshit to be gone, no more starvin' |
|
Let's get our feast on |
|
I got some shit I want to speak on |
|
I been away but I'm back again |
|
I took a breather now I'm back again |
|
I had to chill but I'm back again |
|
I now you hate that I'm back again |
|
(Outro) |
|
(I been away but I'm back again) + (I'm back) repeat |
|
Haha, yeah |
|
Welcome me back |
|
Feast or Famine, good hands |
|
Uh, get ready |
