[00:18.05]Back when I first grabbed that pen
[00:19.94]I told myself I was gon’ win
[00:22.41]And I ain’t know when
[00:24.03]But it was gon’ end
[00:25.46]Up happening, I want in
[00:28.65]So you can take your top 5 list
[00:30.05]Dead or alive and put me after Em
[00:32.61]I’m a fucking genius
[00:33.66]Gripping my fucking penis, living this life
[00:36.00]You can’t tell me nothing
[00:37.39]Still ain’t really got no money fucking right
[00:39.86]I’m all about that real, about that real
[00:41.68]This ain’t no motion picture
[00:43.17]I tell you how that feel, how that feel
[00:45.22]Even when the odds against you
[00:46.92]They wanna see me wearing Polo drawers
[00:48.47]Put 2 chains on and that ain’t wrong
[00:50.06]But that ain’t me, I go too damn hard
[00:51.84]I don’t need clothes or jewelry to stand out
[00:54.66]Black lip nigga with his hair wild
[00:56.71]Too damn proud
[00:57.76]Been killing this since Cam made Oh Boy
[00:59.78]Oh boy, I’m the man now
[01:01.96]TDE, put the money in my hand ain’t shit free
[01:04.65]This business is quick sand and I won’t sink
[01:06.43]Put the pistol in my hand and I won’t think
[01:08.84]Rest in peace, you just made room for the next to be
[01:12.00]I never been afraid to say what I wanna say when I wanna say it, okay then
[01:15.58]Further more we do this for y’all
[01:17.64]Rap is stressin’ but it pays great
[01:19.19]That is until you lose appeal
[01:20.84]And your release date gets date raped
[01:22.78]Stay safe, hold your head
[01:24.81]I got two fish and a loaf of bread
[01:26.36]Feed the people, food for thought
[01:28.15]Because we are equal, who’d have thought
[01:30.76]They wanna share my light

[01:50.92]You can have all my shine, I’ll give you the light
[01:58.63]I used to wanna rap like Jay-Z
[02:00.49]Now I feel I could run laps around Jay-Z
[02:02.58]Nas ain’t seen nothing this nasty
[02:04.17]B.I.G. & Pac got it coming when I pass too
[02:05.95]You got the mic, I ain’t the one you wanna pass to
[02:08.00]My niggas say my new shit past due
[02:09.53]I paid dues, even got that shit tattooed
[02:11.34]HiiiPoWeR on another plateau
[02:13.26]I know you know we need a few plaques too
[02:15.09]The brand new niggas with a attitude
[02:16.78]Poppin’ Compton or Timbuktu
[02:18.60]I might even sell my new shit for 10 bucks too
[02:20.59]Too ill when I jot these words
[02:22.56]True eel when I shock the world
[02:24.64]I know life’s a bitch
[02:25.89]When you know life’s a bitch and that’s not your girl
[02:28.09]Cold shit, I’m hot though
[02:29.73]Like coal get, Ab-Soul
[02:31.50]This is a shift in paradigm
[02:33.16]I remember when I couldn’t spare a dime
[02:34.89]Now I step in with a pair of dimes
[02:36.67]On P’s, y’all know me
[02:38.50]Flow like water, admiralty
[02:40.44]The best author ever to breathe
[02:42.91]And as we proceed to follow these dreams
[02:44.91]I ain’t losing no sleep
[02:46.39]No, no on them NoDoz
[02:47.61]Just know “No” if it’s no dough
[02:49.42]So high but I’m Soulo
[02:51.20]Two cups and I sip slow
[02:52.93]Taking my time
[02:54.25]We don’t just shine, we illuminate the whole show
[02:56.40]Now let’s go

[03:28.24]But only time will tell
[03:29.84]If I ever go Columbine
[03:31.24]And cop 30 nines and cock back and kill
[03:33.44]See the truth is
[03:34.28]They wanna know how close me and Dre and Snoop is
[03:36.24]Or how the shoe fits when they choose this to beat 2Pac
[03:38.41]But truth I give two shits ’bout
[03:40.17]Expectations or critics hating
[03:41.62]Shit, I just put moms on vacation
