| Before my life took the direction it has
|
| I use to run around in the backyard playin' catch with my dad
|
| Hoppin' the fence to play with neighborhood kids
|
| It seemed like every day was good
|
| Doing stupid shit but never behavin' the way we should
|
| A raised Christian influenced as a youth by the crucifix
|
| Switched to public education but never did really get used to it
|
| In childhood foolishness
|
| Went from gifted and talented and honor roll
|
| To shop liftin' at Conoco
|
| Sneaking in Grouper 6
|
| Nemesis on Nintendo
|
| Posted up in the Electronics department at Target
|
| All day playin' Genesis demos
|
| Starvin'
|
| Shined in the darkness with Kevin
|
| And raisin' funds
|
| In the parking lot of the supermarket
|
| Bummin' change for Laser One
|
| Runnin' game on Asians, I’d spend hours takin' tokens
|
| Findin' ways to aggravate 'em
|
| Beat 'em till the game was broken
|
| With Jason, stealin' for me was too easy
|
| We use to jack toys, go home, open 'em up
|
| Bumpin' Whodini and the Fat Boys
|
| Mom strove a trooper
|
| Had a crush on Punky Brewster
|
| For years I wondered if Fred Savage fucked with Winnie Cooper
|
| I was just a skinny loser
|
| A prepubescent virgin
|
| Uncertain and full of question eyes that never seen deception
|
| Yes
|
| It happened after birth so let’s get past the first impression
|
| I moved to an urban setting now I’m usin' words for weapons
|
| Once passive now turned aggressive, I guess it’s the Ces that changed me
|
| Rap with the perfect essence expressing most everthing that’s
|
| Happened since after birth so let’s get past the first impression
|
| I moved to an urban setting now I’m usin' words for weapons
|
| Once passive now turned aggressive, I guess it’s the Ces that changed me
|
| Rap with the perfect essence expressing what makes me angry
|
| Yeah this is that character that I have been waitin' to build
|
| That has nothing at all to do with how I’m statin' my skill
|
| (Nothing at all)
|
| Cause I’ll stay screamin' at you cats till I turn gray in the gills
|
| I seen you swervin', goin' off the road so straighten the wheel
|
| And while you try to get there first, you know the race isn’t real
|
| They say when there’s a bill there’s a way
|
| So why you’re wastin' your will?
|
| I love my memories of my mom and pop but I’m erasing 'em still
|
| Took a few shots and I chased 'em with pills
|
| Cause of this spot that I grew up’s the only place that I feel
|
| (Only place that I feel)
|
| I love smashin' out on my bike but always hated the hills
|
| Who, me, makin' a killing?
|
| I have yet to make one shilling
|
| While some look over my shoulder just for the sake of stealin'
|
| Aware or not they read your brain
|
| I swear to God you’d be amazed
|
| Cause villains these days’ll find a way to rape the women
|
| How many were crushed in rubble, just couldn’t escape the buildin'
|
| In war, there is no winner consider the fate of children
|
| (Remember that)
|
| Powerless as we’re housin' terrorists within our borders
|
| Men in camouflage and automatic weapons on every corner
|
| Bombin' the block outside got you thinkin' this can’t be real
|
| (This can’t be real)
|
| Now you feelin' the way the kids in Afghanistan feel
|
| It happened after birth so let’s get past the first impression
|
| I moved to an urban setting now I’m usin' words for weapons
|
| Once passive now turned aggressive, I guess it’s the Ces that changed me
|
| Rap with the perfect essence expressing most everthing that’s
|
| Happened since after birth so let’s get past the first impression
|
| I moved to an urban setting now I’m usin' words for weapons
|
| Once passive now turned aggressive, I guess it’s the Ces that changed me
|
| Rap with the perfect essence expressing what makes me angry
|
| Yeah I’ve grown accustomed what can I say, I know it sucks
|
| (Yeah, it sucks)
|
| But it’s so close to hell I can almost feel the gates opening up
|
| How’s that for some motivation?
|
| After we vote to change it
|
| And it’s legal the people will see the last of their sober days then
|
| We stay oppressed and
|
| I’ll actually know we’re safe when
|
| We raise our voices against the contracts of this covert nation
|
| We’re faded into black (fading into black)
|
| And I’m making my own arrangements
|
| Look past your speculation |
| 'Cause these acts of devastation
|
| Won’t bring back a better nation
|
| Keep an eye out for the crack down
|
| Try not to act out
|
| 'Cause they’ll find your sack on the pat down
|
| Crowds now a days too tough to entertain
|
| I don’t know why I rap
|
| You can watch the world by day by day
|
| On C-span and Simulcast
|
| I get depressed and run away
|
| And numb the pain and shit’s suppressed
|
| Like memories and younger days
|
| That hits the chest like love and hate
|
| It’s give or take
|
| But what a way
|
| To live a life
|
| When men are mice
|
| Some picking Ces
|
| You pick a side, whoever pays the better price
|
| Come back to Earth so let’s get past the first impression
|
| I moved to an urban setting now I’m usin' words for weapons
|
| Once passive now turned aggressive, I guess it’s the Ces that changed me
|
| Rap with the perfect essence expressing most everthing that’s
|
| Happened since after birth so let’s get past the first impression
|
| I moved to an urban setting now I’m usin' words for weapons
|
| Once passive now turned aggressive, I guess it’s the Ces that changed me
|
| Rap with the perfect essence expressing what makes me angry |
