[Intro] I remember I used to have a crush on you Back when I used to - take cla**es at UM See me uh, in cla** scribbling in my notepad, y'know [Verse I] Collegiate notes on Carthage, verses outlined in the margin Rap changed, it ain't about who's soft and who's hard, sh** And fame don't correlate with the sk**s of an artist I try and reach the youth when I speak in the booth Roll your weed and get loose but think, sink your teeth in a book Three sides to every story n***as offer you two Only MC that bangs with the sickening truth Claim your crew's titanic, I'm sinking a few If I die tomorrow Hip-Hop, I'm thinking of you Listen dear diary take everything inside me If real recognize real, Technique inspired me! I'm here to save the nights foolish pride would deny sleep Bible by your side, it's blasphemy, but side beside me Hurting, sobbing on your white sheets Turning, tossing cause your mom need a man Wipe them tears off when you needed her the most Your b**h disappeared, God, just ain't fair Bump B.I.G. I'm all ears You're nobody till somebody k**s you You don't love somebody till their gone and don't miss you! [Verse II] Truth hurts much worse when your voice won't coward So I move verse like my hearse was the world trade tower Get it all outward, I'm thinking about her Hair dripping, the towels, the s** in the shower! f** latex, we take risk for great s** Never got that late text, would she ever say sh**? [Nah!] We lived for the moment; Kids for a moment We did but we're broken, the rhythm has chosen Expose the pain, need Novocain These colder nights and longer days I must maintain I'm going insane, give the world my back when and if my shoulder breaks I chose to stray, man I told her straight “Fear my lies, Hear. Every. Rhyme. They hold more weight Sincere like Nas, strong as Buns these words I say Harvey Dent with all the hell I've faced I'm starving babe and it's brains I crave, your food for thought The taste is strange, I figured things would change Sadly they just stayed the same…” My mother said, “son, never lie always tell her the truth” She's the only one I trust beside the MIC in the booth “You lost a pa**ionate dude, it's falling harder on you! I'm done paying attention, I guess your insecurities due” [Verse III] Some hearts are filled by taking trips to Venice What thrills me is f**ing taken women Breaking relationships plus the taste of taken lips Is like a forbidden fruit, I ain't a snake n***a Don't get the two confused Hate it, when I said “Boo” were the girl of my dreams Her body was sweet, licked her cherry, had her whipped like the cream I'm whack but she love it and in this dream for cream We both know, Wu-Tang ain't nothing to f** with Young, dirty genius pale with a ghost face on And I got the method, man to corrode your face off Raekwon the industry with the lyrical napalm That boils the spinal fluid in the disks of your spine I'm grimy, the nineties, Hip-Hop in it's prime A real n***a, why? I made love to ‘The Light' Motherf**er with heart, stuck in the ghetto staring at stars And I better get an Oscar, cause these verses are Wilde Flow deep like the Nile with a purpose that's foul My acapella will {Blaow!} the left side of your chest And sh**, I'm sorry lost my train of thought for a sec Sometimes I spit for the ghetto so n***as jam like Tec's Cause our lives are short-lived but they are well spent And I love the way her body felt when I had her bent I'm f**ed up! Anybody relate to my pain? Turn the music up let me know that I'm sane I heard dude was f**ing you, but you screamed out my name On my road to fame, nope, no deal Just another dame I play, so, no frill And I love H.E.R. but if the world's against me I ain't a b**h, I won't kneel So f** it take notes on a ghetto n***a will
