[Verse 1: Professor P] I was born 17th of July, 1985 Life's a roller coaster, my favorite ride Valleys and peaks through the balance we seek Make every challenge unique, don't be afraid to try No lie I've learned, from an early age about the pearly gates Now I'm more concerned if I ever learn to turn the page Cause I witnessed first hand broken plans turn to rage Therefor I try to earn respect before I earn my wage Wasn't born with no silver spoon I was born where the illest tunes filled the room MJ's "Thriller" soon, became the sound track Now I got it down pat, bounce back like Nike Airs I'm right where you lounge at This is me, all that I am, check the history I always stood tall like a man And I don't call you my fan, I call you my fam It's all in the plan, I promise to do all that I can Sincerely yours... [Hook: Daniel Adams-Ray] Let me do what I do, I'll be true True to myself and true to all my peeps Cause I do what I do just for you [Scratch: DJ Ak**es] Havoc: You feel what I feel, you know the deal [Hook: Daniel Adams-Ray] Let me do what I do, I'll be true True to myself and true to all my peeps Cause I do what I do just for you [Scratch: DJ Ak**es] Jay Z: All I need is the love of my crew [Verse 2: Professor P] I was born 17th of July 1985 Soon my 27 like my aunt on the day she died Seeing mom maintain through the pain that she laid aside Gave me pride, got too many thought to let them stay inside So I scribble down what I live around I'm L-Town and U-Town city bound with my committee now And we're sampling this soul, to give y'all a sample of our soul Watch a champion unfold, my goal's Been the same since I was eight or nine Haven't signed with no major but we're still on a major grind A creative mind tryna find a way to shine Hoping one day some say I wrote their favorite rhyme I'm not afraid of dying, only afraid of not living Driven by this thing I got given Won't stop till we're sitting on top I'm not kidding it's hot I rock rhythms for a cause, sincerely yours...
