I get used to the trends then my style just blends With contemporary rhythms and then you're drawn in Yawnin' at other folks who utter quotes the next man used You're not inspired impressed involved enthused Instead lullabied by whatever they said Insulted in fact 'cause what was catapulted at you's wack By no other name so a brother came To cut off them chains known as the same ol' same So get loose 'cause you're able to walk again Neck out of that nuisance emcee's talk that's awfully lame Oughtta be plain lovin' it like government reparations It's about time, now how we gon' spend it All that to say I'm neither co-dependent on nobody else's tape Nor ever disappointed as my verses take shape Sore 'cause this beat's hittin' I'm wrestlin' it with a pen in my hand Eff it my effort got me winnin' again (chorus x2) It's payin' off as I'm payin' dues you play it 'cause I'm goin' off Nobody got rhymes like voo's they gon' be layin' off Weak rappers left and right mouth wide open 'cause the South came so tight Unexpected to say the least Nobody but a narcoleptic's able to sleep Eyes wide shut turntables flushed with heat If raps were fat nuts how many bucks would I spend in a week Just on sheets never heard of me, peep I take a Stevie Wonder/Luther Vandross creep To the studio and murder the beat Look at the side of Ricky Williams' helmet is the fleur-de-lis neat If so they let him tiptoe on the turf, how sweet But as I run in the field I expect a lot of shots at my head And facemaskin' draggin' me 'til I kneel Just because of who I play for From Texas with that flow Need I even say more The emcee you should pray for Pay for to see live until the sound of beehives Put me in a position to where you're stickin' to me I've Gotta be focused, not get too big for my Levi's or cargos I think I'm doing alright so far though (Chorus)
