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 |
