Humble Beginnings
The king of ‘em all.
I’m a hit ya with a tribute
To Biggie Smalls like Tylenol.
Straight from Crooklyn
Better known as Brooklyn.
That’s where I got my beats took in
You’re dry and I’m fly
Like Bedstuy Do or Die.
But ya know I’m done with ya
Having some fun with ya.
Kiss u goodbye
As I run with ya
Coz this a sweet rap.
A simple beat that
Might make your feet tap.
With that bee bap,
I’ll make your seat snap.
Coz I’m the thunder,
A boy wonder,
A crazy cat who never
Made a blunder.
If you talk shit,
I’ll put ya under.
I’m one of the bad bad kids.
You got a brain but
You messing with a fuckin whiz
Coz I made it in show biz.
Call me Bill Cosby.
Talk to my assistant
Coz I’m the boss, B.
Stick in hand
Like Sidney Crosby.
Hated when
This poet was originated,
But you’re outdated
And I made it.
With my name atop the list,
I know I’m slated
To make a comeback.
Check your fatass
Coz you’re sitting on a thumbtack.
I’m just playing,
Ya know what I’m saying.
Been in the game for a while,
But now your praying to
See whether your staying.
I was the victim of a mean girl down south;
A lil mama with train tracks in her mouth.
Jawing about how I
Would never make it out this cage,
But things done changed.
Now all I gotta do
Is turn the page
To end my rage
Please lord, get
me outta this craze.
Momma told me
It’s just a phase.
He’ll get over it.
All the shouldering
Responsibilities
Got me feeling
Like I’m soldiering
On with my life.
My uncle cut my pay at the body shop,
So he could let the mollies pop.
My sister’s letting her dolly rot.
I need some money for my
Parents to stay on top.
So this shit has gotta stop
Coz my life is based on crack rock
Unless I make it with my hip hop
And a little smack talk
I do my own thing so back off.
It’s a traveler’s style.
It goes on for miles,
Splitting sundials
With a smile.
Came from humble beginnings.
I’m stealing from rich niggas
And I’m winning.
Hammer to your skull.
Your head is spinning
While my baby brothers grinning
And his ribs are thinning.
We didn’t always have enough food to eat,
But I was always in the mood to meet
My momma or d-roc
To sell more at the crack stop
Up the block
On the corner of Fulton Street.
Once in a while,
Someone would start up a beat.
Like my momma’s barbecue chicken
It was always sweet.
I’m the funion.
Beating ya while wearing
My grandpa’s bunions.
I’m a stun ya,
Make ya cry like my aunt
When she cutting them onions.
I murder every beat on the microphone.
Clearing the streets like a cyclone
With a rapper’s style of my own.
I’m in the zone
Like MJ in every quarter.
I’m a hoarder of the rock
Like it’s mortar on the dock.
I’m a ball hog.
Ain’t got a dime to spare
Coz I’m a small dog.
I’m so far gone
It’s gonna take you a while
To find out what level I’m on.
