| Damn I used to be upset and just sweat
|
| Some chain, for a coat, seven digits or so
|
| Still making tapes breakin' pop’s ol' crates
|
| I found this slowed it down and mixed it with that
|
| Original lyrics I had pages of rhymes
|
| Still dreamin' 'bout stages and cuttin'
|
| Be on the mic bravin' late at night with the honey that was twice as nice,
|
| we look fly
|
| But that was more potatious of what went vague
|
| Is what would be like and would grab the mic
|
| Take a look at Bill 'cause I rock it so well
|
| But that was '85 and we don’t socialize
|
| Because of that a lot of groups fell apart
|
| Egos and pride has changed the course
|
| And if you hear me, think about your favorite group that’s lost
|
| If you hear me, think about your favorite group that’s lost
|
| Because of that a lot of groups fell apart
|
| Egos and pride has changed the course
|
| And if you hear me, think about your favorite group that’s lost
|
| If you hear me, think about your favorite group that’s lost
|
| (Verse 2: Yusef Afloat)
|
| There’s much stress in the life I live
|
| Plus I got a lot of good times left to give
|
| Crews come and go, some just so so
|
| Is the wealth and the fame that causes them to go low-down?
|
| And with no hope are comin' back and I’ve seen it
|
| And that’s on top
|
| And you can wise and catch a glimpse of the stars that stuck
|
| 'Cause while you could get heavier, times will pass
|
| And that’s the others motivate you slowly drop to last
|
| 'Cause your crew could’ve been tighter
|
| But inside you had an infiltrate buzz known as a bitter
|
| You thinkin' back and now you’re pissing your clues
|
| It’s never enough to buzz but what about dues?
|
| Well, let me tell you when just 16 I made a musical plan
|
| From the times I got chased to the Sprinkle jams
|
| From the punks that got mushed to lie, rob and push
|
| My first slice of how life will be
|
| The industry and then some money
|
| So now, because of that a lot of groups fell apart
|
| Egos and pride has changed the course
|
| And if you hear me, think about your favourite groups that’s lost
|
| If you hear me, think about your favourite crews that’s lost
|
| Because of that a lot of groups fell apart
|
| Egos and pride has changed the course
|
| And if you hear me, think about your favourite groups that’s lost
|
| If you hear me, think about your favourite crews that’s lost |
