Something very important has come
Up, there is something you have to do
Shine son, your time has come
Respect due, select few tuning in
I write with passion
(Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back)
I write with passion, I'm on my prior doubt
Finished steps to success, that's what I'm about
From holding book, potent crook took the common route
Should be in pajamas instead of drama with the llamas out
Well feed me, feed me
Whatever need be
Thirsthing at commercials, ain't no virtue on that TV
Food, toys, cars
Until he was deployed dodge
Was felon, dwelling where the rude boys lost
Turn new leaf from crude beef, thinking like a jewel thief
Trying to school streets
Smooth move em in some beats
In promises of finding their hearts like pulled teeth
Can't pencil the diction
When essentials was missing
Never peace, streets
I vent with conviction
Wilding like stallion valiant til de-saddle you
Plans of reg corners cancerous, I'm free radical
Days of menace was the mission
Chemist in the kitchen
Dilemmas of addiction, the premise wasn't fiction
Pen tails is spent shells, how my partners died
Moms good grace, hood trace from my father side
Snacks searching tack
First, I'm sure they eat
Bitter cold in my old apartment wouldn't call it sweet
Track different, lots of scratch, chicken pox, throwing bottles
I peered back, clear fact: endeared whack role models
You guessed it
Pubescent wasn't too pleasant
I trailed the block, failed a lot, but gave it true effort
The turf raised me, never the word "lazy"
Make every verse crazy as if tomorrow I'll push my first daisy
"What you do it for"
I had to do it, more of a cure
Been through it, spilt it, near as filth now my fluid pure
Night armies, pipe zombies
Seen bleak devastation
Of course I felt it lost
Now I speak preservation
Respect due, select few tuning in
Shine son, the time has come
Soon to win
Shine son, our time has come
