("Angel of my life, watching on me")
[Rapper Big Pooh]
Gotta put some phase on my voice
("Look of love, look of love, look of love")
Multiphase ("That last for eternity") {Family Biz}
Yo.. waddup! I wanna thank y'all for tunin in
Hope I ain't take up too much of your time, y'know?
Yo...
Four years in the makin, I gotta thank those
Who stuck by me, cause I require patience
To search for perfection, comin up short
And yet and still energized by support
I'm back to business, discard the training wheels
I'm like a sniper on the roof - trained to k**
My aim is ill as I watch emotions spill
On the pages, now I'm thinkin 'bout my next meal
Next song, next record, next deal
Let me take a moment to express how I feel
This is gratitude, this is so far removed
From most n***as, and they attitudes
I'm just a regular n***a, this ain't regular sh**
I don't know 'bout y'all, I was born with a gift
Who you know that can riff, like ya ol' boy
Eddie Kang Jr. and I finish this - sheeeeeit~!
