[00:03.13]I'm green and inexperienced, dreamin' 'bout that chariots
[00:05.77]Stay sparked and trade cards, he know that they be cheering it
[00:08.77]On, I'm feeling grown when I spray my cologne
[00:11.46]Got a mind of my own, but time's ticking too long
[00:15.90]And I got a plan to restore the game
[00:18.10]This shit was looking quite critical right before we came
[00:21.05]Co and cane flow in that novacane for your open veins
[00:24.05]All we need is something medicinal, torch the flame
[00:27.14]Third rail skippin' over missin' track
[00:30.04]Soundin' like the kicks and claps that filled the gaps for missing tracks
[00:32.96]The third kind been real, we just missin' Jack
[00:36.04]Food for thought, but I tossed the scraps in a doggy bag
[00:38.87]Rehearsin' verses in my head, no iPod
[00:42.44]Gave my life to Ja and still can't find a job
[00:45.19]So what I'm grindin' for, to put these new Nikes on
[00:47.80]Or to hide the scars from the eyes of God
[00:51.12]
[00:51.53]Is there heaven for us hip-hop heathens
[00:53.91]Big Pop and Pac, even Eazy had 'em leanin'
[00:56.60]We all children lookin' for a reason
[00:59.48]What do you believe in, betrayal, treason?
[01:02.58][x2]
[01:14.26]
[01:14.89]I'm out for dead presidency
[01:17.00]I'm out for dead presidency
[01:20.11]I'm out for dead presidency
[01:22.96]I'm out for dead fuckin' presidents that represent me
[01:26.17][x2]
[01:37.98]
[01:38.35]"Hey yo, STEEZ, lemme send you a track
[01:40.54]I've been a fan for a while and I appreciate you hittin' me back
[01:43.94]Cause me and you, we like similar cats, just tryin' to get on the map
[01:47.75]And I would love to work with you and Jakk"
[01:49.92]But I'm afraid it's not as simple as that
[01:52.97]Cause the symphonies and melodies
[01:54.23]Haven't been havin' the same chemistry
[01:56.40]The distance fact is only addin' on stress
[01:58.93]And it's hard for me to live up to what you expect from me
[02:01.93]The yellow tape was a warnin' sign
[02:04.86]It's hard to cut straight to the chase without a dotted line
[02:08.36]And if I made that the bottom line
[02:10.92]Then I guess the Khan hit rock bottom about a thousand times
[02:14.37]Some people like to compromise for the dollar sign, but I had my mind aside
[02:18.57]I told Jakk from the get that I'mma ride or die
[02:21.84]And I'd rather die by homicide
[02:23.96]Instead of goin' out without a pride
[02:26.12]
[02:26.46]Is there heaven for us hip-hop heathens
[02:29.28]Big Pop and Pac, even Eazy had 'em leanin'
[02:32.05]We all children lookin' for a reason
[02:35.01]What do you believe in, betrayal, treason?
[02:37.91][x2]
[02:49.71]
[02:50.73]I'm out for dead presidency
[02:52.43]I'm out for dead presidency
[02:55.56]I'm out for dead presidency
[02:58.41]I'm out for dead fuckin' presidents that represent me
[03:01.65][x2]
[03:13.48]
[03:13.90]Presidents that represent me up on some G shit
[03:16.75]Tryin' to stay afloat so long they got me seasick
[03:19.67]It's been a good minute since we kicked it
[03:23.12]And I'm still hopin' that you come home for a weekend
[03:25.53]So I could kick it like a kid again
[03:28.95]I was all constructive like criticism and Timbaland
[03:31.93]But I remember back in the days
[03:34.67]When we was goin' through that Torch and Excalibur phase
[03:37.33]
[03:38.04]Is there heaven for us hip-hop heathens
[03:40.86]Big Pop and Pac, even Eazy had 'em leanin'
[03:43.79]We all children lookin' for a reason
[03:46.63]What do you believe in, betrayal, treason?
[03:50.00][x2]
[04:01.13]
[04:01.84]I'm out for dead presidency
[04:03.38]I'm out for dead presidency
[04:06.90]I'm out for dead presidency
[04:09.91]Dead fuckin' presidents that represent me
