Twenty One |
| …let me just take a second |
| to pause and reflect, check the cause and effect |
| I find myself askin', how did this happen |
| so fast, cant imagine, man I remember back when |
| I thought knew the deal, but I didnt understand |
| it was never in my plans to become a grown man |
| hopped on a plane destination thailand |
| where nobody was there to hold my hand |
| and thats when I believe it started |
| see I became part of a culture meanwhile my partner |
| was guarding the scared gardens |
| and it’ll take that inspiration to create an artist |
| and through the hardships, I grew regardless |
| of how much I was still stuck in the ways |
| on the sidewalk some duckin’the strays |
| some repeating the mistakes their own parents made |
| look kid you don’t even know the half |
| true, but its you I will outlast |
| I’ma be around to see what’s to come |
| cause at twenty-one i’ve only just begun |
| Im told |
| look kid you don’t even know the half |
| true, but its you I will outlast |
| I’ma be around to see what’s to come |
| cause at twenty-one i’ve only just begun |
| twenty one times around the sun |
| take it in, I knew this day was bound to come |
| illmatic had told me that the world was mine |
| and I realized it was way before half-time |
| listen… I’ve done what some couldn’t |
| given a chance all because of one women |
| who taught me knowledge of self, always prayer books |
| on the shelf for me to delve into myself |
| trained my voice and my soul from an early age |
| gave what I can take with me through the pearly gates |
| fought for opportunities for me, mentored me |
| even when it didn’t make sense to me |
| I never knew who to blame, see there’s a lot more |
| significance to the name because he once did the same |
| so why would I bother to be anyone but Badí |
| spiritual descendent of the Pride of the Martyrs |
| look kid you don’t even know the half |
| true, but its you I will outlast |
| I’ma be around to see what’s to come |
| cause at twenty-one i’ve only just begun |
| Im told |
| look kid you don’t even know the half |
| true, but its you I will outlast |
| I’ma be around to see what’s to come |
| cause at twenty-one i’ve only just begun |
