Intro: Mpongo Love
Verse 1: Gracy Hopkins
Lemme write a little book to you, or maybe just read that
All the details, I know we dont need that, but maybe I'm just lookin for a way to reset myself
My first nickname was Lee, with the Baby just before, that was me, began with the singing then the raps hobbie, then made a little crew with the best broadie
The name was B next to the Y
It stands for Young Billies
We didn't grow around gang bangers, drug dealers
The old just laugh, but we know the young feel us
Wack a** english accent with no flow
Rappin' all these verses we all know
I started with Chris' 48 Bar Rap
Not really the first, but now we know more
True story is told, homie, Carter, me, G with Preacy
I fell like I was about to grow so fast, n***a maybe that is why I made Grizzly, what
We were just in a little room tryna copy all that stuff we was hearing in the mainstream radio
They were like "we dont speak that like you" I was like "shut up just tell me if you ready tho"
Tell me are you ready tho?
Answer oui my dear
My very first song wasn't Triumphal Arch, it was a wack remix of Whip My Hair
The first record I did wasn't T.A. neither, "Look Me Up" that I never dropped
Now I'm just here, and I play my story, so nobody can say that I never tried, I came from nothing
Hook: Mpongo Love
Verse 2: Gracy Hopkins
Tell me who your homies, Imma tell who you are
Tell me what your past, Imma tell what your future
Imma tell you what they want, if they gonna choose ya
Be with the right clan, you know who they for
BabyLee is growin' up then became Grizzly
I remember how this hatin' stupid neighbor used to diss me
And it wasn't errbody, but they wasn't pushing fellas up
And now the same n***as are the ones who tryna kiss Lee shoes
Ahh, these n***as disgusting
A fella's workin hard while these n***as discussing
But I dont forget the day-ones
Since "Look Me Up" that I had to play once
But now lets close the rap chapter
The fact that ya wanna know it, thats gross
My conscious said I'm too dark
And pretending that I'm too lost
So he just came and took a part of me
And this little fool created Clyde Mownei
The other little fool is the bro I never had
Now these others little fools cannot never touch me
All these guys thinkin' I'm a wiz or something
I was the number one, now three fellas frontin'
Knock-knock, in your front door
God gave me so much and I want more
Cause I know I messed up
So lemme make a fella make it right
Lemme make a fella bigger
I just askin' myself
Do you want something you like?
Or do you want something to bite?
Can somebody understand my case?
Do somebody wanna steal my place?
I'm just a rap fan here, I pray for love and still feelin' hope
I came from nothing
Hook: Mpongo Love (Gracy Hopkins)
(Now you know everything right?
You already know that I came from nothing
Oh! That's my favourite part right there...
Sing mama sing!
Ladies and gentleman, Mpongo Love: the mother of an entire generation
Hope you will enjoy this where you at
And I apologize for all the rude language in that song
We love you, you there forever you know that?)
