80's baby but the 90's made me who I am
The ruler and
The cooler head prevailing in a jam
The most tumultuous span
At times I lost my focus
When Clinton was the closest thing to a black POTUS
Duly noted
Floated my hopes thru prayers and quoted Numerous scriptures and these verses
If you read it I spoke it
Up to the most high
Guess he had the volume muted on me
Cuz he still took my mama from me
Left me a little bitter
Motherless little nigga
Choked my pain left it smothered in a lil bit of liquor
Cold hearted yo coulda made a polar bear shiver
Slick Rick solar flare the mic ripper
And I ain't speaking facetious
But thru these speakers leak the heat that you been seeking
I cry, sweat and bleed it
You need it I got it
Heard that they been fiending for my product
Nostalgic like '93 the Chronic.
My memories...
My best years
Addressed a few fears
With new beginnings
Made the most of what I considered the worst
My youth had ended
Wish I could extend this feeling of feeling safe
Instead I gotta prepare for this race
I need pole position, I'll pace
My course for collision
Was fate yeah inevitable
My vision is really reality I'll level with you
Seen my best and my worst side
A thirst of the worst kind
My love for the streets coulda earned me a hearse ride
Or cell block, I shall not play the victim
Cuz I did dirt, committed sins God forgive him
I dodged the prison, was just a youngin with no sense
F*cked around was facing 6
Off a 1st time offense
The 1st time was it some shit I ain't built for
Everything goin against us this system ain't built for us
Yet, was built for us to endure more pain and strife
I had my fair share in this life...
My memories
