[Verse 1] Starting to feel age's weight on my back Beginning to wonder for how long I can rap After all I've done All the way I've come Until I got here Man, pa** me this bottle of beer I don't need to tell all the story again Think I've already told you about when I was in the army The f**ing big wars And about my childhood About my life in the hood About drug problems, addiction You know it's all real, no fiction And then I became this popstar A rapper, but I still have my scars And now time also weighs down my shell I know, it's not like living hell But still it slows me down And then sometimes I frown And I wonder if it isn't time to stop If I'll be able to cop With this fast crazy rhythm much longer [Hook (x2)] And I can tell I enjoyed this, hell Tortoise II was the best But now I have to go my friend I need to rest But it's not the end [Verse 2] I mean I gave what I promised Let us all be honest Tortoise II is right here Even though you and even I feared It might actually never come I did manage to get it done And I did what I said I wanted A balance of funny sh** With serious right next to it Told you stories about me Talked about things I deem important And between these, between stories Talked sh** and had fun, with my flamboyant Style Yeah of course I did smile Writing and recording everything And I like being here rapping And yes it is nice to do shows To have people shout your name To have nice hotel rooms, even hoes And to see I am changing the game But it also is a lot I almost didn't rest my whole life Didn't enjoy some time with kids and wife But wait, do I have 'em? Notnot See, I didn't even have time to look around Maybe if I'd stopped earlier I'd have already found But I had this responsibility to you I have the utmost respect for my fans But I have to see what I can And can not, what I'll be able to go through [Hook (x2)] And I can tell I enjoyed this, hell Tortoise II was the best But now I have to go my friend I need to rest But it's not the end [Verse 3] So what do I do? Do I give up? These doubts are stuck In my mind, it's something new Having to think about what's next Not just doing it and forgetting about the rest Damn it I gotta weigh What will be better for Cla-Clay Do I have my answer? Nay When will I say? I don't know man I just don't know And I wish my doubt wouldn't show So easily But it seems to me I am no longer so busy So I can think and think About what I will do Man it's k**ing me I should just finish this LP But I couldn't help it Had to tell you about it After all it concerns you That's the reason I do what I do But I really have no answer to say Let time tell what is to be done of Cla-Clay In rap And now let's wrap It all up, this was Tortoise II Hope you enjoyed See you
