(woooooo)
(yeah)
(turn the music up turn the lights down i'm in my zone)
thank god for grantin me this moment of clarity
this moment of honesty
the world'll feel my truths
through my hard knock life time my gift and the curse
i gave you volume after volume of my work so you can feel my truths
i built the dynasty by being one of the realest niggas out
way beyond a reasonable doubt (yall can't fill my shoes)
from my blueprint beginnings to that black album endin listen close you hear what i'm about
nigga feel my truths pop died didn't cry
didn't know him that well
between him doin heroin and me doin crack sales
with that in the egg shell standin at the tabernacle
rather the church pratendin to be hurt
wouldn't work so a smirk was all on my face
like damn that mans face was just like my face
so pop i forgive you for all the shit that i live through
it wasn't all your fault homie you got caught
and to the same game i fault that uncle ray lost
my big brothers and so many others i saw
i'm just glad we got to see each other
talk and re-meet each other save a place in heaven til the next time we meet forever
thank god for grantin me this moment of clarity
this moment of honesty
the world'll feel my truths
through my hard knock life time my gift and the curse
i gave you volume after volume of my work so you can feel my truths
i built the dynasty by being one of the realest niggas out
way beyond a reasonable doubt (yall can't fill my shoes)
from my blueprint beginnings to that black album endin
listen close you hear what i'm about nigga feel my truths
the music business hate me cause the industry ain't make me
hustlers and boosters embrace me and the music i be makin
i dumb down for my audience and double my dollars
they criticize me for it yet they all yell "holla"
if skills sold truth be told i'd probably be
lyricly talib kweli
truthfully i wanna rhyme like common sense
(but i did five mil) i ain't been rhymin like common since
when your sense got that much in common and you been hustlin since
your inception fuck perception go with what makes sense
since i know what i'm up against
we as rappers must decide what's most impor-tant
and i can't help the poor if i'm one of them
so i got rich and gave back to me that's the win, win
the next time you see the homie and his rims spin just know my mind is workin just like them
(the rims that is) thank god for grantin me this moment of clarity
this moment of honesty
the world'll feel my truths through my hard knock life time my gift and the curse
i gave you volume after volume of my work
so you can feel my truths i built the dynasty by being one of the realest niggas out
way beyond a reasonable doubt (yall can't fill my shoes)
from my blueprint beginnings to that black album endin
listen close you hear what i'm about nigga feel my truths
my homie sigel's on a tier where no tears should fall
cause he was on the block where no squares get off
see in my inner circle all we do is ball til we all got triangles on our wall
he ain't just rappin for the platinum yall record
i recall cause i really been there before
four scores and seven years ago prepared to flow prepare for war
i shall fear no man you don't hear me though
these words ain't just paired to go in one ear out the other ear
no yo my balls and my word is alls i have
what you gonna do to me? nigga scars'll scab
what you gonna box me homie? i can dodge and jab
three shots couldn't touch me thank god for that
i'm strong enough to carry biggie smalls on my back
and the whole bk nigga holla back
thank god for grantin me this moment of clarity
this moment of honesty
the world'll feel my truths through my hard knock life time
my gift and the curse
i gave you volume after volume of my work
so you can feel my truths
i built the dynasty by being one of the realest niggas out
way beyond a reasonable doubt (yall can't fill my shoes)
from my blueprint beginnings to that black album endin listen close you hear what i'm about
nigga feel my truths
