Recognize Ali - Face the World lyrics

[Intro: Recognize Ali] Uh, uh. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Uh. Face the world, baby. Yo. Uh [Verse 1: Recognize Ali] I done lived around some n***a stuff Some real, some fake, some refused to grow Summer f**ing hot, n***a. But the winter cold While these n***as settling for less, I'm thinking Interscope Yeah. Tell the world I'm the new 50 I'm in the real 50. Haters seen dudes b**hing Synced up in our own black Mitsubishi Jeans is hundred, but the Timberlands is two-fifty Yeah. Do the math—I got, like, ten of those And, motherf**ers, I ain't bought that from selling nose I'm just a mottovational speaker that's selling hope I won't stop ‘til success is in my center crews Yeah. I'm in the streets like homeless people Like your neighborhood nurse, I deliver the needles Lost like a Mus-i-lim n***a in a cathedral Street's martyr far from dumb—my approach is cerebral Know a few know the body from the bread, n***a The enemy ain't your own kind, but the Feds, n***a What up, Roxy? Dream on like I said, n***a ‘Cause once you stop dreaming, then you're dead, n***a [Hook: Ron Ron] There's soul with the picture of pain We all will get along, still on the way And I won't let my pain go erase my baby I'ma turn around and lay this today Face the change [Verse 2: Recognize Ali] I'm a sinner and a f**ing saint I'm just a lost soul that's hoping he can reach his [?] Give me all the f**ing cash. You could keep the fame Light a blunt and get a picture that I'm trying to paint Last night, my chick ain't showed with a rendezvous I swear to God, my people don't see what I'm going through I'm like the black Jesus. I'm misunderstood At the Last Supper, all I see is snakes like a déjà vu Ain't no love in the streets—we brawl and we ha**le Like an exam, all these n***as want to do is pa** you But when I spit, they go nuts like a f**ing cashew They trying to build a house. I'm trying to build a f**ing castle While they trying to crawl, I'm trying to walk, n***a While they trying to walk, I'm tryna fly So I'm high every time. Mix the kush with the Henny, I'm Sicker than the patient. I'll be beasting with these daily lines Yeah. Face the world with my chest out Ain't nothing I ain't seen. sh**, I'm stressed out Motherf**er, I dare you to bring your best out Then I'ma catch a body on my next bout [Hook: Ron Ron] There's soul with the picture of pain We all will get along, still on the way And I won't let my pain go erase my baby I'ma turn around and lay this today Face the change
