I’ve been down this road before
I’m still, I’m still who you’re looking for
Oh, I’ve been looking for a place to hide
I feel, I feel your eyes
See right through my life
These young artist are striving
They say it’s hard surviving
They only authorizing
That rap is disharmonizing
Tell them not to worry
Music, it’s just modernizing
I beg to differ, cause if you look upon the horizon
You see a star is rising they go by the handle flying
He like a man of iron compared to these dandelions
And what come back? The underground? I been run that.
It just suck, I'm so stuck, to the street like a run flat
Though it only it take one track
To get you back, on my nutsack
I'm feeling like where the fuck is the love at
I might as well make it rain, sleet, snow, hail, in this dry spell.
I might as well come out of my shell, hell
Cause hip hop ain't been the same since I left it
Trying to be positive I guess was the wrong method.
Cause you can bring the dick to the pussy
But you cant make them F it.
And now look what I'm left with – this
I’ve been down this road before
I’m still, I’m still who you’re looking for
Oh, I’ve been looking for a place to hide
I feel, I feel your eyes
See right through my life
We got a black prez
Still a lot of crackheads
My grandmother still can't afford her back meds
KRS already taught us about them black feds
They don't wanna see us live, should we act dead?
Then they wondering why niggas rocking that red
It's the only sensible lifestyle, day after day
Trying to put it in his head the more blood
Just wanna block the more blood gonna shed
Check check what he said
He said out here dodging the mortuary is not out of the ordinary
My people are so calm it is scary
And when we in the war why we ain't worried
Like a young G in the street
It's how I want to be buried
Look shorty you put it wrong
Here go a thinking cap, now put it on
With that mentality you're as good as gone
Lying there with the bystanders looking on
I ain't trying to clip your cone
I'm trying to put you on
I’ve been down this road before
I’m still, I’m still who you’re looking for
Oh, I’ve been looking for a place to hide
I feel, I feel your eyes
See right through my life
