lyrics

Verse 1 (Philosophy):

I was somethin' special when Mom's handed me the metal/
I ain't talkin' bout no heat, the M-I-C and foot pedal/
I'm leader and rebel, so I'm going down in hist-ree (history)/
Music's in my heart and taking me where I need to be/
But isn't it a tragedy, that people want what's bad for me?/
Tellin' me I changed, and that I'm nothin' like I used to be/
I thought you all, you all would be so proud of me/
Supportive and astounding, but it's like I'm drowning/
In-surmounting/
Where fear is my motivation/
Put my soul in all my rhymes and every musical creation/ Monumental's what I want to be, influence legendary/
Dedication of a Tom whenever he's chasin' Jerry, I just parry/
And block the disbelief around me/
In the middle of The Fray, so I can't believe You Found Me/
Stayin' out of the system especially the county/
I'm a Dog on his Hunt until it caught its Bounty/
Look me in my eyes and tell me what it is you feel/
Everyday's internal struggle walkin' with the unreal, I just killed/
Any doubt you may of had/
Sour look upon yo face, so please tell me why you mad?/
Because I'm everything I wanna be/
Or maybe it's because of the pretty woman right next to me/
Just accept it B and move on with your life/
Mac Beth with dagger and I'm coming for your wife/
That was a sexual refer-ence/
Ponder on it, it'll all make sense/
Greatness is measured by the work you put in/
Not the money that you're makin' or the color of your skin/
My friend, let's bring it back to the begin/
Greatness is measured by what you put in, not the money that you're makin', or the color of your skin/
Lord I just ask that you forgive me for my sins, so we Pray/
So we Pray, each and every day/
Hope the next day I can to see the sun rays/
Like when Unc (Uncle) got shot/
We started the funeral a spring day so Hot/
He was in the newspaper, that came out a day later/
Which means... that everyone showed/
The hottest of days but somehow it snowed/
A hot spring day we started the funeral/
The hottest of days but somehow it snowed/
But somehow it snowed/
A hot spring day we started the funeral/
But somehow it snowed.....But somehow it snowed/
