Verse 1: Aye, as a kid I was studying Pac and Snoop Dr. Dre on the beats, I watched the loops Thinking to myself this is impossible Wonderin' how this dude Came up with the joints they was rockin' to Never heard of a MP or SP My best bet be he better than Gillespie It kinda stressed me when I would hit the studio Tryna play songs from scratch ‘cause I ain't truly know That they was choppin' a lot from Troutman Until Blay dropped in with liner album Credits, and it said it had interpolations That word meant basically that's your arrangement Of previously worked out works or phrases And here I am learning how to work my fingers This takes nothing from Dre, you're a genius It only showed me that my search had taken me Chorus: Home They know who you are so you can get Home I know who I am that's why I'm Home Better know who you are so you can get Home I know who I am that's why I Verse 2: I used to wanna be signed To a major record label to get me shine 'til them labels let you make it in with weak rhymes Started thinking to myself what's the point throw up the peace sign Then I heard certain artists couldn't make it in Then they blew up and now labels they wanna make amends Could it be they were wrong about me? I do it myself, show they were wrong to doubt me I know what I studied buddy The masters are cla**ic but ask for this rap it's puddy I'm more than budding, I'm the rightful heir It ain't occur to you that what I write is rare? If not you ain't hip-hop regardless of your job Or how many hits or comments on your blog Big Daddy Kane called me a beast At least recognize I got a lease and keys, I'm home Chorus: I know who I am that's why I'm Home They know who you are so you can get Home I know who I am that's why I'm Home Better know who you are so you can get Home I know who I am that's why I Verse 3: This last song is for you to get home Since you came to the wizard and the musical poem I'ma tell you the truth on the regular youth Step to me for advice that's what I tell ‘em to do First of all stop actin' like the label's a god They're major so they put on a major facade In fact I can easily relate ‘em to Oz The wizard that is their whole game is to lie See I been down the gold road With my dog Toto And I know those images they don't show Gold ropes and dope Rolls they rent that Most those don't own homes they rent that Dough owned for promo give it back Is what the majors say ‘cause they gon' get that You kids have what the elders only dreamed of You just gotta believe and get your team up ‘cause you don't need a company-ship and CDs Start your own channel, forget they TVs Internet radio stations they add up Local radio on play you subtract one You have tons of online tutorials Go learn to edit some film, set important goals More than those that just talk and bicker Follow CEOs and moguls on Twitter The wizard's job is to explain this to you You have the answers, you already came with the truth Above all you need to have a mind of your own And know that you're already home Chorus: I know who I am that's why I'm Home They know who you are so you can get Home I know who I am that's why I'm Home Better know who you are so you can get Home I know who I am that's why I Home They know who you are so you can get Home I know who I am that's why I'm Home Better know who you are so you can get Home I know who I am that's why I
