Lyrics

Yo Bo, what up?
Ayo OG, I just wanted to know man
How you survived 30 plus years in this game man
You know, without no fumbles, no slips, no dropping the ball
Keeping it solid, standing tall on the business
It's something we all wanna know
Questions in my mind
I'm always searching for the
Questions in my mind
I'm always searching for the
Bodey that's an easy one, never been a greasy cat
Standing on business before they was even saying that
I took care of you the way I took care of Nas
Make sure I cross my T's and dot my I's
Make sure that I say what I mean, I mean what I say
That you didn't get jerked like I did back in the day
The advance from Def Jam, less than that Rolex on your wrist
The value was greater than the bag because without it
There's no Third Base, no album, no plaques
In fact we only would've met if wifey wanted that in brown or black
Selling shoes at Neiman's, still in mind over food delivering
Shivering at what it would've been like
If hip-hop didn't save my life
You the first rapper signed to Searchlight
Nas signed to Schematics, Illmatic, It Was Written
Word, Life and Non-Fiction
So proud of you Bodey James, I love you king
My phone is always on, you can ask me anything
Questions in my mind
I'm always searching for the
Questions in my mind
I'm always searching for the answers to the rhyme
What up though Search, Ced Louie
I always wanted to know
How did it feel to make your mom and dad proud
When you first took off as an artist?
Thanks Ced, so glad you got to meet my mom and dad
I think before I answer that I have to take you back
1985, Friday Shabbos dinner with the fam
About to tell both my parents I ain't going to college
A four year ride to George Washington School of Music
I couldn't use it, I'm a Queens thoroughbred
Far Rock till I drop and I wanna be a rapper
They said "A rapper? What you mean you gon' be a rapper?
Gonna rap gifts and tears?" Nah, I'm gonna be an MC
This thing called hip-hop is gonna take me to a place you never seen
Mom you said I'd light up the world
So this is how I become the beam mom
She said "What's your plan?"
I grabbed a pad and pen and wrote it down
Hmm, what would it take until I got my big break?
Cool, Monday morning three year plan
She support me and hold me down
And if I didn't make it then I had to bounce
Graduated high school and I was out
Almost three years to the day I signed my record deal
She gave me two letters, the first one was so real
The first letter said she was proud of me
And I wouldn't know what I did until I grew up and had my own kids
And the work was just starting
The record deal wasn't the finish line, it was the starting
The second letter was a work of art
It was a bill for everything she laid out
I gave her some of my advances and the rest came out
Of my ASCAP royalties and she was so pleased
Call me every month, "Michael did you know that you made money
When your record played on PLS or KISS FM?"
And I paid her back in full in 1997
And she was proud of me until the day she died
And my dad was proud of me until the day he died
Their pride showed every time they Googled my name
The best price of fame, they gave me my lane
Cedric, I love you brother, that's on Ellen
Yo I love you king, my phone is always on
You can ask me anything
Questions in my mind
I'm always searching for the
Questions in my mind
I'm always searching for the answers to the rhyme
Hey Search, what's up? It's your boy O.T. man
I just wanna know man
Is the times that you made the most money the best time of your life?
Was that the highest point? Was the highest point the highest point?
Ayo Search, what's up man? It's your homie Cube
Now check this out dude
Look, the only reason I worked with The Bomb Squad
'Cause I was up at Def Jam waiting for Sam Sever
Waiting for a meeting, then I saw Chuck D
And the rest is history
So I never met dude like
Where the fuck is Sam Sever? Where's this motherfucker man?
Ayy man, at least I can say, you know, what's up
Goddamn I ain't never met this motherfucker man
And he the reason I worked with The Bomb Squad
He don't even know it probably, yay yay
Ayo Search, this is your rhyme partner
Prime Minister Pete Nice, but check it
We gotta get serious right now
Got a serious question for you
Yo Search, why you such an asshole B?
