Freshman 10 (Freestyle) |
| It’s that D2 shit, you know |
| Hit-Boy |
| Yeah, Freshman 10 |
| This shit makin' me feel old, damn |
| I gotta go back to '010 |
| When the best car I rode in was a old Benz (Swerve) |
| And new enemies was still old friends (Friends) |
| Honestly, I think it was around '09 |
| The time I got the XXL cosign (Yeah) |
| Remember thinkin', «I should been on the last couple years, nigga, both times» |
| (Both times) |
| For the first time, felt like I was walkin' in my truth |
| Cold day in NYC, nervous, walkin' in the room |
| Bumped into the coolest nigga, Wiz, he like, «Dude |
| You made it here too? |
| You know I really fuck with you |
| I even hit you on MySpace like two years ago, you the truth |
| Anyway, I’m 'bout to drop a new mixtape |
| Two of 'em, Cabin Fever and Kush &Orange Juice, I need you on there» |
| I’m like, «Shit, send it through» (Send it through) |
| Then I saw OJ tha Juiceman walkin' too |
| He like, «Sean, what it do?» |
| First nigga that I seen rockin' that many diamonds and real diamonds inside his |
| tooth |
| I said, «Shit, nigga, just tryin' to be as poppin' as you» (Ayy) |
| He ain’t laugh, it was cool |
| Then they made us all stand together like we was a big-ass group (Group) |
| Then I seen my nigga Nipsey there in all blue (Woah) |
| Back then, niggas thought he talked and looked just like Snoop, damn |
| I’m just lookin' for this new nigga that Hov' signed |
| Some nigga from North Carolina |
| I heard him named J. Cole (Cole) and they said they delayed his flight |
| So they gotta Photoshop him in, I hope that shit look right (I hope it right) |
| Goddamn, Freshman 10 |
| The funny thing about bein' next up is that shit, you’ll never be next again |
| ('Gain) |
| Got my foot in the door, been steppin' it up ever since (Since) |
| Crazy how some of the longest, most stressful days of your life |
| End up bein' the times that you wish you could live twice |
| Only two mixtapes in, but in my city, one of the realest, though |
| And at that time, niggas peep niggas was stealin' flows and buildin' off it |
| (Off it) |
| And at that time, that nigga Ye was like, «Dre, I’m just tryin' to make them Ms |
| off it» (Ms) |
| Later that night, I hit the stu' with Nip' and Wiz |
| French Montana too, but he wasn’t on the cover |
| I mean, at least not ours, but they put him on another (Another) |
| And to sum up the whole night, I get back to the hotel, few doors down |
| It was Jay Rock, he said, «Today was wild, shit |
| But let me introduce you to my young dawg, next up, named K. Dot» (K. Dot) |
| Who woulda thought? |
| It’s crazy memories, our gems our mind keeps in the vault |
| My, how life can change in on year? |
| Okay, but what about ten? |
| I guess I’ll check back in, what up? |
| Yeah, huh, you know, freshman ten |
| I know some niggas made it and some niggas didn’t (Didn't) |
| That’s the realest reality we all hate hittin' |
| But love to the whole clique (Clique) |
| 'Cause we got a platform that most don’t get (Get) |
| So shoutout Nip', Wiz and Cole (Cole, who else?) |
| Shoutout Pill and OJ too (Yeah) |
| Gangsta Gibbs for Sean Don and Jay Rock, too |
| Real shit, I think we was the best class that ever came through (Through) |
| Huh, freshman ten |
| I remember my graduatin' class in like '06 |
| And I remember between then, and, you know, to the XXL cover |
| Them was prolly some of the hardest years of my life |
| 'Cause a lot of my niggas, a lotta, you know what I’m sayin' |
| Just, everybody around me was in school, goin' to college, gettin' jobs, |
| whatever it was |
| And I was just still chasin' that dream, you know what I’m sayin'? |
| I just remember havin' to record in my niggas' basements |
| You know, settin' up the mics in our fuckin' closets and the bedroom |
| And, just like, goin' in |
| And all them listens, even though I had the deal from Ye, which was a blessin' |
| It was like, shit, Ye was Ye, so he was busy |
| You know, shit was a little stagnant |
| But in them four years, when my niggas was graduatin', you know |
| That was the same year that I got the XXL cover |
| So in a way, it was like, that was my college degree |
| You know, all the mixtapes, all that grind, all the hard work |
| That was like my, my first degree, you know what I’m sayin'? |
| So I just appreciate the whole process, the whole journey |
| Lookin' back, I wish I woulda lived in the moment more, but |
| I guess that’s what memories are for |
