[00:05.77]Still getting mine, in the 1 9 9 9
[00:08.46]Yo, just relax, take it easy slow down
[00:09.38]I had this, I had this friend of mine
[00:14.00]Who just, you know, he was moving too fast, you known I'm saying?
[00:18.45]I told him to slow down, he said the sun don't chill
[00:22.70]I said, I said still, I said still, you gotta
[00:25.67]Just appreciate life, sit back, don't let it fly right past you
[00:30.30]No matter what go on I'm still gettin mine
[00:33.87]No matter the year, no matter the place, no matter the time
[00:39.31]Check it
[00:40.16]It's like I'm fighting for freedom, writing for freedom
[00:42.40]These record company niggas I don't like when I see 'em
[00:45.70]My ancestors, when I'm writing I see 'em and talk with 'em
[00:48.43]Hoping in the promise land I can walk with 'em
[00:51.14]Shitted on so many rappers it's like I'm in the stall with 'em
[00:53.80]Molest concepts, stalk rhythms, paid dues, bought wisdom
[00:55.59]As legends fall my godmother answer heaven's call
[01:00.19]Preachers' daughters get fucked in the reverand's hall
[01:01.99]MCs reckless eyeball, why y'all wanna go and do that?
[01:05.59]Must've thought I was solo, the name just ain't the U-Ac
[01:08.33]No mo', still together
[01:10.90]Like in the ghetto photo with one nigga in the chair
[01:12.77]Holding liquor in despair, gang signs in the air
[01:15.52]I shine in spaces where time is just a glare
[01:19.17]Hold the mic like a memory
[01:20.80]Niggas say I'm nice with metaphors but these are similes
[01:23.69]Street ministry, my poetry's a penitentiary, track is visitation
[01:27.31]Sentences is life, I'm like chief up in this demonstration
[01:30.92]Still...
[01:55.44]You squirm with discomfort, wiggle and cough
[01:58.13]Six days of madness and you might throw me off
[02:00.77]On this great ball of stress that they call the earth
[02:03.47]I'mma show y'all in rhyme just how much shit I been through
[02:06.23]And all the places I went to, always played the low
[02:08.93]It's like a competition, this mission here I'm telling you
[02:11.65]Slip up and rhyme-ass niggas here is felling you
[02:14.35]Crash courses, slow down you can't learn that quick
[02:17.11]Cause I'm the dead eye, with the red eye, from Chi to L-I
[02:19.78]I thought y'all knew, every year I grew, I'm still growing
[02:23.41]And in a year or two I hope my girl'll be showing
[02:26.80]A male seed, praise God I name him Moses
[02:27.91]I lead people I want him to, that's why I chose this
[02:30.71]Now is the glass half-full or half-empty
[02:33.43]Common, why they tempt me
[02:35.22]The king of the simply, bore in mic
[02:37.10]I always stay on top cause I give niggas what they like
[02:39.72]I know y'all hate that why I feel I owe y'all everyday
[02:42.41]If y'all hear it a thousand times, it's gon' be the same way
[02:45.17]The 'Dat-Father, go farther, why bother
[02:48.76]Now I'm a peaceful man, I don't want no stress
[02:50.60]You know I'm still...
[03:08.69]Yo yo, some get Range Rovers, some religion change-over
[03:12.33]Angel on my main shoulder telling me remain sober
[03:16.00]Token nigga, game's over ain't no payola in freestyle
[03:19.64]In battles, I'm warring like a G-Child
[03:22.27]Searching for the child in me, this style in me
[03:25.30]This release is like the piece that's now in me
[03:26.78]They tried to 'sassinate me god, like Martin on the balcony
[03:30.53]Lyrically I put a hit on 'em, cause I'm the style "Nitti"
[03:33.20]Catch a flick at the Liquid Kitty
[03:34.98]Trying to get a chick to kick it with me till the tilt
[03:36.82]Told her my chamber's like Wilt
[03:38.62]Built with her for a sec, let her know I had respect
[03:41.30]Less than a hour she was giving me neck, yo I'm still getting mine
