Lyrics:
"he cheated on her" just wasn't fucking true
Anyway, after that a few weeks went by before she let me see you
And she said it was because I still
What if a brick was only just a misdemeanor?
What if Manhattan was hit by Hurricane Katrina?
What if a black man was the one controlling Fema?
What if
I don't need nobody to tell me nothing I'm my own man
Told y'all once before I'll say it again I'm a grown man
Still bout my money yes still bout my
a time where once I
Was king of the underground
But I still rap like I'm
On my Pharoahe Monch grind
So I crunch rhymes
But sometimes when you combine
of a whore
Always wanted by the law
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know people?
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man
a young man fly
Fly, fly, fly
Fly
Let a young man fly
Before that young man die
And they all put one in the sky
Let a young man fly
Fly, fly, fly
He was
There was a fearless Irishman, lived out near the sea
Outside Ballyferriter, a West Kerry man was he
Danny Sheehy was his name, wore a sailor cap
Calling the cops on me twice
Three, Four times, go by
Bitch, I'm bout to load my Glock up tonight
Bitch, you calling the cops on me once
Calling the cops
space over the water
I got insight it's a clear case of reading your aura
Man, what you got for us as my Black men stand in line like a chorus
Makin'
the morning a new door could open by the night a older door could close
And what's behind that door could be tears, frustration,resentment I don't know
But I
When I started man was a novice
When I put in work I noticed man was going up unnoticed
I was dreaming looking at stages
Man was reading looking up
was laid
By the yellow man
We pledge allegiance
All our lives
To the magic colors
Red, blue and white
But we all must be given
The liberty that
and start to jot some
Always told myself that I would never be losin'
Man, I ain't have no hood, my mother was always movin' (damn)
From Detroit to Texas,
it
I too once thought I was owed something
I was hoping
I was hoping we could challenge each other
I was hoping
I was hoping we could crack each
it
I too once thought I was owed something
I was hoping
I was hoping we could challenge each other
I was hoping
I was hoping we could crack each
see that he wasn't a large man
I could tell that he wasn't too tall
I judged him to be 'bout five-foot three
And his voice was a soft Texas drawl
man, I hope she fine
Let her know I tried, let her know I said hi
Miss it when you and I
Against the world like kids in juvenile
Side by side like
What if a brick was only just a misdemeanor?
What if Manhattan was hit by Hurricane Katrina?
What if a black man was the one controlling Fema?
What if
Ohh, Oh, Ohh
Once upon a, once upon a
Time
Once upon a, once upon a
Time
It wasn't that long ago I was
Layin' there in my room
Wishin' on a shooting
we’ve been through this before
I never could find a cure
but that was then this is now
Time Waits For No One
a year goes by in the wink of an eye
Time
Fooyah
Fooyah
Mama told me dont
Momma told me dont do it
I was signed to the cocaine
Coached by the yayo
Running plays with the dope man
Having
There once was a note pure and easy
Playing so free like a breathe rippling by
The note is eternal
I hear it, it sees me
Forever we blend
on a straw
Rubber ball man
A poster on the wall
Of a dear friend
I wish there was a way that I could show you
How your songs set me free
The hero
Man I live by faith not feelings
Man I said faith not feelings
Enemy plotting and scheming
But I'm living by faith not feelings
Man I said faith not
