[Verse 1: Eraa] If a pictures worth a thousand words, I'm Eddie Murphy Illustrating the struggles through music I know you heard me The industry is shady it needs to be taken over the break is over I promise I know that they did us dirty Just sitting here reflecting back on TLC Everything they should've received f** La Reid Plus these radios got my people selling that dope It's gonna take more than a 3.0 to bring us some hope I had a meeting with the principle in 2014 Told him we need to have a talent show to prove who was king He told me no but I ain't stop, I fought by all any means He was just an obstacle between me and my dreams First of all I was declined by this f*ggot named Mr. Cline He told me we ain't got time to be hearing you n***as rhyme I swear to God he gone regret that, That he ever said that Cause this major comeback is due to them minor setbacks He was playing checkers on boards where you play chess at Rap is in my calling that's where I'm gonna catch rec at Only if God forbids Its 50 seconds and you still haven't skipped it yo Nas man It Was Written in my future like Meki Phififer I even leave pyromaniacs traumatized how I set the booth on fire I tell the truth to liars, The New School messiah Tell Richard Pryor I'm spitting coke, And even though I'm wet behind the ears imma vet cause my time is near Play roulette with these other rappers I bet I'm the last here Though I'm blessed I still stress success is right there Just to make it to the throne there's a set of musical chairs One day you're here, Next day you not One day they love you, Next day they stop One year you sell, Next year you flop That's why I plan to give it all I got, I never let that pen drop That shouldn't be New Boy (You got it good) Nah you must got me confused, You can't walk in my shoes But everyday above ground is a good day, That's real sh** I can from zero to one hundred my n***a real quick Cause I got enemies, Bestfriends envy me That's why I stay alert and watch them people I chill with This for my ex friends trynna pa** my moat You can't expect to burn a bridge and return for a boat, That's stupid Throughout the fame watch you kinfolk turn to Nymphos Trynna f** you over for money but sh** I been broke And that ain't never stop me from making it to the studio They tell me I'm the greatest b**h i might be word to Gucci thou Before my time f**er Cause even back in 8th grade I thought I belonged on a freshman cover Give me some time and Ill make it every chance imma take it Just incase if you didn't know I'll state it I got Martin Luther dreams but with Malcom X schemes Supreme Beings that send down lyrics which only means I spit higher power verses thug But see I'm pure like a cup of virgin blood Hit the stage and one mic got me splurging cause Imma microphone fiend that Eric B or Rakim has never seen I won't stop until I'm on the radio Raheem f** 5 I put 100 I'm the best that ever done it n***a [Outro: Eraa] Ladies and Gentleman! I now give to you... Audio Visual! Its been a long time coming, Yaull don't even know the half of it And that's fine, His journey is far from finished anyways And without further adieu, Let me shout out a few people real quick First and Foremost, I have to thank the man upstairs Next up is my boys Derrell and Sean Without you guys none of this would've happened in the time spand that it did...and i appreciate yaull man These 2 never charged me gas not once, And that's crazy My dad (Big Forch!) For always believing me Actually for introducing me to the studio And you always let me be creative with my work Our time is coming, I promise, Cash Kow! We got Dro working on the website as we speak You know I can't forget my man Khyel, Can't wait for you to come back home bro, Got your letter in the mail the other day All of them nights you would sit in my room and watch me write I never had no-one do that... You're incredible! Smiley, The man behind the scenes Now imma take it even more literal then that, Azeb For those of yaull who don't know who that is That's the manager at the grocery store I work at All them times they tried to fire me and you always had my back.. Always Without this lady their wouldn't be no money for the studio But before I check out let me touch on something real quickly I know yaull see whats going on man, They're k**ing us 1 by 1 They don't want us here The system isn't set up for young African Americans to survive I have a feeling something big is about to happen soon Not to say I'm in the best position to lead it But I know for a fact that I refuse not to be apart of it Until the next time
