[2nd Verse:] See I've Been Rapping All These Years - Acting like These Tears - Don't be Dropping on These Sheets/ Know I got Sk**s - How I'm Dropping All this HEAT - I Vowed to Keep it Real - When I'm Hopping on These Beats/ (I'm obviously a BEAST) - "Sheesh" -- I wanna Piece of the Pie - But it's STILL in the Oven/ Knew I was a Vet - But Yet - [They're] Saying That I Wasn't?!/ Raised in the Hood - Where They - Really with the Thugging & Drugging/ (Takin Pills by the Dozen) -- Surrounded by them Fiends - That be Scheming on the Block/ If You're Seen on the Scene by the Cops - [They'll] be Bringing - All Ya Dreams To a Stop/ Despite How it Seems - Everythang Moving slow - Like Drinking Lean on the Rocks/ Never Seen What I Stock? - If You Check My Inventory!/ You Would See the True Events - Based in My Story/ Never Getting the Glory I Deserve - Every Verse I done Written/ Its like "This sh** HERE" - is FORBIDDEN/...Damn... {But I Still be in the Lab - Hoping I can Find Another way/ (I can find Another way) So Many Hours Pa**ed -- Recording All these Tracks - I Don't Know the Time of Day/ (I don't know the time of day) - They say you Gotta Hustle -- Get ya Bread up - Look at All these Years - Man a n***a Getting Fed up/ Thinking bout Quitting - But Still I Won't Let up - I Know that PAC - Would Tell Me - Keep My Head Up/...But My...} [Hook:] Head down - Got me going Insane/ TEARS in My EYES - They're Ignoring the PAIN/ Standing Outside - In this Pouring Rain/ The LOVE I Provide - They don't Show me the Same/ So my - Head down - Got me going Insane/ Know I keep it SOLID - I be Showing My Shame/ My Own Fam Don't Give a Damn - They Don't Owe me a Thang/ But How I Really Spose to Shine? - When They Ain't Knowing My Name!/..The Flame...
