[Verse 1]
I'm walking 'round the downtown, see homies rising from the ground
New Year is over, problems coming, got no cash and can be fired
The writers block become so commonplace into the life of mine, I face
The difficulties, I'm disgraced, disintegrated with this place
Feel like I've been asleep for a lot of days
I feel alone in world that's called Three Days of f**ing Grace
I know nobody who can slap my b**h into her face
Ray Rice is underground, he's under groundable arrest
But then I see a piece of thing that gonna change my mood
A broken headphone, now I think nobody understood
The music has a power to alter moods and talk to you
But can it load a gun up for you and then co*k it too?
There used to be a time when you could k** somebody rhymin'
It was ok, nobody argued, and no one was dying
But lots of sh** did have to change, and now we see the bodies
You smacked a gangster in his face with rhymes? You're getting bodied!
Man, I don't need to see somebody of my guys arrested
Deceased or being f**ing sick, it's bad, we need to change the
Rules of this rapid game of rap, stop being f**ing hoodie
I'd rather put a song of Masta Ace than watch a movie!
[Hook: x2]
I came in this game with the good intentions
And I don't think there's anybody who can't sense this
My lungs full of air, my eyes on fire
I ain't gonna stop and will not retire!
[Verse 2]
I promise to my future kids: I'm going to keep you safe
In world that con-stan-t-ly changes, I put you in a safe
Turn up some rap that I grew up on, it will not affect
The minds of thugs potentials, I ma-ke them respect
A lot of kinds of rappers, no matter what, alive or dead
Incarcerated or released, I take a bow instead
I'm shouting out to Pac and Big, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane
The people who did help in forming of Big Danny Krane
To Masta Ace, to k**er Mike, to Snoop and Dr. Dre
I drop a name of Eminem and then 3K Andre
Then UGK, G Rap, The Roots, Jay-Z, I mention Nas
A sense of Common and Kanye, it's just the two of us
We're not a family, we run this muthaf**in' world
sh**, I don't know what should we do to make the game return
Back to the basics, this is where we f**ing started from
Welcome to real world, we break into your f**ing home!
[Hook: x2]
