Duke Westlake - Born For This lyrics

[Verse 1: Dumbfoundead] Yo 1986 a star was in the making, I had no idea that the world was for the taking. Received my education from the television stations, My family never had them dinner conversations. When they got back from work, you'd see their backs would hurt. So I provided laughter, my earliest acting work Doing dances, lip-syncing rappers Impersonating Michael Jackson and Kung-Fu captions. Ha, funny guy, never had the bu*terflies Never shy, every five minutes I would improvise. Cla** clown, had jokes before a peach fuzz, Ask around, I was roasting them like peanuts Dime bags in middle school, my Walkman My life saver through dark days and lost angels Fourteen candles when I wrote a sixteen For the first time my first rhymes were sh**ty So we practiced, and the homie tracked us It attracted mad b**hes to the mattress Spent more time on my rapping than fractions Dropped all my cla**es Cause I was born for this... [Hook] I was born for this (I was born for this) Yeah I was born for this (Yeah I was born for this) I was born for this (I was born for this) Yeah I was born for this [Verse 2: Dumbfoundead] Damn yo Should of heard the corny Jackie Chan jokes Thinking they were getting me when they're 'bout to get handled Rambo k**in', my crew like Sam Crow Crammed seven in a van, man it wasn't grandiose, nah Shows were gra**roots Before the cash road gas money tours we were sleeping on the floors If you saw me and Zo way before then you would know We have grown, if we had a chart it'd be a slope Going up, up, see the slope going up The student became the teacher now the kid blowing up Don't ever leave a mic cold Flow when the cameras roll Signed that open mic list Hunger should have told you this Crenshaw or rock a Bar Mitzvah Any chance I got was like that and like this ya'll Takes ten years, not ten seconds to lift off Stay patient and try not to get pissed cause Fifteen year-old Jon would've served young'un Nineteen year-old Jon would've served time But Old Boy Jon, man he's out here having fun And the best has yet to come I was born for this... [Hook] I was born for this (I was born for this) Yeah I was born for this (Yeah I was born for this) I was born for this (I was born for this) Yeah I was born for this
