Lyrics

(Intro)
Yeah
I wanna break this down for you
Listen up
Yeah
(Verse 1)
I had this album called the desired effect
Put it together with (?)
This was late 2004, you bet I had some big ideas
On some (?) new manager to protect
My vested interest's on my old label, check
Yeah
I was in Honolulu writing
Couldn't wait to return the rebirth was exciting
A 50/50 deal with a major
Now I got some money for the mixing and working radio
Low and behold motherfuckers change their tune
Talking about how this shit wouldn't work how I'm doing it
My **** was broke and decided to listen
The whole shit got dragged out and it started pissing me off
Especially when cats delayed
My American release, how much longer the wait?
The album finally came out up North
Didn't do a whole lot and the shit made me sore
Never shouldn't fucked around and changed shit
But you know the score sometimes when you're hungry you go for it
So
I reworked the whole damn album
New shit same title and you know the outcome
See if you dig it on the (?) and book me for the raps
I'm never gonna get caught in that trap again
Cause this is what's happening
(Hook)
This is the desired effect
The uncut raw not inspired by a check
Money comes money goes but y'know
The music stay around and that's what I do it for
Just let to you know
That's what I do it for
Just let to you know
That's what I do it for
(Verse 2)
The secret subtitle is an epiphany
Waking up realize that there's no serendipity
If you be listening to someone else's plans for your own life (what?)
That's like removing your backbone
Sometimes we go straight but we can come back home (true)
Home for me is the dirty beats dirty sound
Some ill melodies and it's still my journal now
And you know we're only as old as we say we are
I think I'm 25 again, you see the way we are?
It's so forgetful and fickle and passive
Cats that used to believe in the ill shit
Is now moving with masses like look where the cash is
Cash is critical but so is the art
I made my decision and I ain't gonna starve
Work hard to make the world open this jar
It's like that
(Hook)
This is the desired effect
The uncut raw not inspired by a check
Money comes money goes but y'know
The music stay around and that's what I do it for
Just let to you know
That's what I do it for
Just let to you know
That's what I do it for
This is the desired effect
The uncut raw not inspired by a check
Money comes money goes but y'know
The music stay around
