'81 was the year shit hit the fan in a major way |
| [00:05.26] |
I sat there for an inspiring artist |
| [00:07.02] |
Almost 20 years after the fact I'm still on my hustle |
| [00:10.35] |
Diggin' graves for an inspiring artist |
| [00:11.79] |
Pushing daises up |
| [00:13.73] |
And never compromise the arts and make a crowd clap |
| [00:15.66] |
Shit on since the first show |
| [00:16.75] |
But we turned feces to fertilizer |
| [00:19.21] |
So when you diss it's just food for the flowers to grow |
| [00:23.25] |
Sold 15 plus out of backpacks, no trunks |
| [00:25.46] |
Too young to drive |
| [00:27.80] |
But live hip hop |
| [00:28.99] |
And the kids are upstate kids that thought rap was past tense, hence the last name |
| [00:33.25] |
Got name for playing basements and such and making songs that our friends loved |
| [00:37.34] |
And when the fish bowl got too small to hold the goldfish |
| [00:41.20] |
We filled our gills with water and ripped that mother ****er like |
| [00:43.70] |
|
| [00:44.14] |
So take a step back |
| [00:45.21] |
And a breath in |
| [00:46.30] |
Let it out now |
| [00:47.16] |
Put your chin up |
| [00:48.60] |
You can do it tiger |
| [00:49.85] |
You a man now |
| [00:51.21] |
And in your dream it's time to do the best you can now |
| [00:52.58] |
|
| [00:53.41] |
So break ourselves down |
| [00:55.41] |
And build ourselves up in disappointment |
| [00:58.00] |
How fragile we are |
| [01:00.77] |
So fragile we are, we just don't show it |
| [01:02.00] |
Shake up this town |
| [01:05.82] |
And shoot down the stars for our enjoyment |
| [01:08.47] |
So sexy we are |
| [01:11.25] |
So sexy we are, we just don't know it |
| [01:13.44] |
|
| [01:24.89] |
This is what you wanted right? |
| [01:26.24] |
How many nights were spent pouring out your guts dummy? |
| [01:28.66] |
How many punishments endured for ****ing up in school? |
| [01:31.04] |
How many teachers proved wrong by writing songs instead? |
| [01:33.84] |
My point exactly |
| [01:34.49] |
But you knew you had a spark, did you? |
| [01:36.25] |
Something producin' to the dreams your pop's dreams lent you |
| [01:38.66] |
Stay focused when nothing seemed to make sense |
| [01:41.17] |
Stealing verses with that cash's clay confidence |
| [01:43.94] |
Sometimes you stubborn as shit, that's the McCoy in you |
| [01:46.54] |
You learn to be a man without losing the boy in you |
| [01:49.13] |
Just do your thing man |
| [01:50.96] |
|
| [01:51.36] |
So take a step back |
| [01:52.07] |
And a breath in |
| [01:52.77] |
Let it out now |
| [01:53.64] |
Put your chin up |

You can do it tiger |
| [01:56.26] |
You a man now |
| [01:57.62] |
And in your dream it's time to do the best you can now |
