**** nowadays, I just think they ungrateful. You know'm saying? They
Come in and out of the game, they give up. You know'm saying? They
Don't really struggle and hustle and do what they gotta do
I remember back in the days, you know'm saying? Remember like
You couldn't afford, like, Fruity Pebbles. We had Kabooms
You know'm saying? You know, you couldn't afford Captain Crunch
You had King Vitamins. You know'm saying? Came in the bag
You know'm mean? Kids nowadays don't understand, you know'
M saying? You gotta do what you gotta do to get on and struggle
And survive in this game. You know'm mean? That's real, dog
I got knowledge condensed in the space of my brain
Words, definitions, and cultures from Africa to Spain
You know my name, so I won't repeat it
Just know I can do any type of job when the work is needed
That's why I stopped getting weeded
I stopped cigarettes too, cold turkey, because I ain't need it
All you need is willpower, strength, and faith—believe it
Anything you set your mind to do, you can achieve it
All that negative "no-can-do" attitude, delete it
Pray to whoever you pray to: Allah, Jah, or Jesus
I dropped out of high school, but in my mind, I'm a genius
So I made it further than dudes with a GED did
Then I reached in the deepest of creases
Read books and Shakespearean masterpieces
Burned textbooks given out by my teachers
That fed his story to me in pieces. I exorcised those demons
Those who were fictitious and facetious
Don't get it twisted. This ain't my album—it's a thesis
Written with heart and soul, better than decent
Blood, sweat, and tears just to hear the cheers in the bleachers
You gotta grind, you gotta struggle, you gotta hustle
To get in this world you need
What's hard work and pain if you're afraid to bleed?
To achieve from fame to love, from name to shine
You gotta move fast, can't waste your time. I did
To create a new flow, let's get it and go
And if you fuck up, only heaven'll know
'Cause anything goes
I rocked one pair of sneakers per school year—now listen
If they got scuffed, I covered it up with Griffin
My moms sewed the holes in the kitchen
My clothes got sewn so much, it looked like my clothes had stitches
So I went to school, trying not to look bummy
And I swore one day, when I got my hands on some money
I'd take the twelve-inch cuffs out
Of my jeans so I wouldn't look funny
But mommy got a good job and now I'm filling my tummy
God bless her for the support so we wouldn't stay hungry
Putting name brands on our back—now we look like new money
So fresh, so clean, so now all the girls gonna want me
In fifth grade, sixth grade, girls wanna dry hump me
We taking weeklong trips, driving cross-country
In a new family whip. The neighborhood loved me
Watching a portable TV in the back, I feel lucky
Laughing at Fred Snack Lamont and call him "Big Dummy"
And this all because of my moms—big up
My dad was around, but when he passed, she didn't give up
She worked hard to keep her chin up and dress her kids up
We did
You gotta grind, you gotta struggle, you gotta hustle
To get in this world you need
What's hard work and pain if you're afraid to bleed?
To achieve from fame to love, from name to shine
You gotta move fast, can't waste your time. I did
To create a new flow, let's get it and go
And if you fuck up, only heaven'll know
'Cause anything goes
My songs are scripted from visions of the past
I've lived different lives—I'm one of the last
Poets. My motive is to show kids
My flow is the closest to what a GOAT is
The most gifted of all time to ever hold the mic and explode it
Rebuild it to a golden rod. I get respect from the older gods
To represent this culture hard and promote it
What's the odds of me making it to The Hills on my lawn
And being the only owner of, like, four hundred cars?
I'm trying to make numbers like A-Rod
But I remain underground—me and my squad
I wanna be on the cover of Fortune 500, burning some chron'
I wanna own the first company
To employ all of the ghetto for good-paying jobs
So I pray to God for help, wisdom, and a million for my moms
So when the mic is in my palm, I'
Ll spit it like I was strapped to a bomb
Get it right. Don't get it twisted
I'm grown now, so the rich and lavish life? I'm trying to live it
Without the same attitude of some of you midgets
I want my son to know his dad had a humbler image
You gotta grind, you gotta struggle, you gotta hustle
To get in this world you need
What's hard work and pain if you're afraid to bleed?
To achieve from fame to love, from name to shine
You gotta move fast, can't waste your time. I did
To create a new flow, let's get it and go
And if you fuck up, only heaven'll know
'Cause anything goes
I'm the greatest tech seed there could ever be
The guy that you'll never see
Sort of like the ghost in the wind
I can't control what flows from within
My lyrics spew from my heart
And I tear wack emcees apart
Hey, Chip, get off the flipping computer
What do you want, Bonaparte? I'm busy
What are you so busy with?
I'm in the middle of my chatroom meeting
Well, hurry up. I want to pre-order the new Pumpkinhead album
I didn't know he had a new one
It's called Orange Moon Over Brooklyn
Well, that's pretty cool. Did you hear Kill Music Volume 1?
Heck yes I did! It's flipping sweet!
Laquita and I were only feeling the guest appearances. I was pretty T
O.'d 'cause I could've spent my ten bucks on Half A Dollar's album
Gross! You have, like, the worst taste ever!
Bonaparte, like anyone could ever really know that
Well, this is an official album. He signed to Soulspasm Records
Well, I guess you could say it's getting pretty serious
Freaking idiot! I should beat you with my nunchucks
I wish you wouldn't talk to me like that. We
Both know I'm training to be a cage fighter
I wish you would get out of my life and shut up!
You're just mad 'cause Pumpkinhead isn'
T better than Half A Dollar. He's a millionaire
I could make that much money in five seconds!
Yeah, right, Bonaparte. This guy'
S muscular. I heard Pumpkinhead was fat
He's not fat. He's just strong like a liger
Well, Pablo got an autographed copy of his new album
Lucky!
I would buy it if it came with a gold bracelet or something
Marco Polo produced the album, so he has a buttload of great beats
That's what I'm talking about. Well, here
I'm done with the computer. Peace out
Freaking idiot! Gosh! Sigh
