[Verse]
Hey, to the college kids no scholarships
Starting your semester
Unpacking your suitcases filling up your dresser
Enjoy it while you got it, after that it's God bless ya
Life is your professor, know that b**h is gon' test ya
I got some sh** I'd like to get off my chest
I spill out my soul, I spit out my stress
And can I spit out my stress?
It's the feeling in the air you bout to drop a real cla**ic
He said Cole, “A lil' birdy told me on the low you got an Illmatic”
Nobody touching Nas n***a it's more like Villematic
These Fayettenam tales be paying off well
What story is my audio theater gon' tell
I know my debut will ship, but is it gon' sell?
I guess it's in God's hands
I make the type of pieces that make Jesus say God damn
That's for your non-believers
I'm the truth only time will teach ya
And f** the haters probably never love they mommas neither
Old bitter-a** sit around in middle cla** homes
With computers on hating on the newest song
While you was browsing I was taking out them student loans
Trying to do this sh** better than the n***as we grew up on
Name a f**ing song I ain't threw up on
Talk is cheap, its like y'all grew up in a Jewish home!
Pardon the stereotype
But y'all giving me mixed feelings like I married a white woman
One minute I'm overrated, next minute I'm the savior
You hate it before you played it, I already forgave ya
For bullsh**ting and that n***a Cole spitting that real
Wrote this line on a plane got flown straight from the Ville
To Miami, where the same time last year
I was broker than you, I just wanna make that clear
Cause now I'm dealing with money I've never seen before
And R&B b**hes want me, that was just dreams before
Now do I give into the temptation I'm facing
The thought of losing a good woman keep me from chasing
But I'm just a man, at time's the timing is wrong
Plus my dick is like a man with a mind of it's own
But I'm trying to be strong, remind myself she ain't about sh**
These hoes the same, all that change is the outfit
Looking for cheese on some mouse sh**
s** a n***a, f** a n***a, then go run they mouth quick
Rappers took a vacation I came over to house sit
You want change, this that between the seats in your couch sh**
The f** you thought, I lost it
All that flame on my name would get exhausted
Au contraire my n***a they all ears
Sit back, enjoy the ride it's finna be a long year, yeah
It's finna be a long year, yeah
I know you feel that, the tingle in your spine don't conceal that
Don't conceal that
This exactly what you thought
Somebody bought the real back
