[Intro: Sample "Something From Nothing: The Art Of Rap] Eminem: The first time I grabbed the mic, like in front of actual people that mattered, You know what I'm saying? Like at a club - I got Booed, I just remember that being so f**ing traumatic and I think I went home like man, I... I quit [Verse: Braidz] I feel like I'm a ghost in a shell because I'm dead inside Never lie my brain's purpose only seem's to terrorize Me until I end my life, bet I cry but when I try I hit an invisible wall of d**h like a motherf**ing metal mime I then rely on getting high it's the only thing that gets me by Rap don't do it no more once the Track's Done I wanna End The Line It feels like everything blows inside this f**ing head of mine's And once that smoke clears, well I guess i've got that Never-Mind My troubled mind says it's hustle time need to get famous fast If I keep writing Double The Lines there'll be no Lane To Pa** But my mental state is so distracting it breaks my heart Used to be happy now I'm putting on a fake facade Most day's I feel like a mean, hopeless fiend toking green Hoping these folks will see and notice me then open dreams Though the scenes focus seems scoping me and joking teens Think that they have broken B' but don't know they won't be noticed [Hook: Braidz] Now I'm trying not to give up But it just gets so hard 'Cause I ain't having luck in the scene Been feeling like I should say f** It and leave... I give this sh** all of my heart And these guys just turn 'round and laugh Do I continue to please my fans and my pa**ion? Because my mind's saying f** It too me... [Verse: Braidz] If a few years back I heard 60's song say to Live It Up I would have turned around and said "Yo, we don't give a f**" See it's sh** like that, all this little stuff That has this Full Keg Rapper still performing at these Mini Bars Told I would see more stumbles If I don't be more humble But I never took it in, told the scene all "f** you!" 'Til I dropped my last tape - and nothing eventuated Even though my sk**s had increased tenfold as I demonstrated Now I see it was my attitude, Mr. Negative bashing dudes I lashed at the scene over my own problems - now that's the truth Now my dreams are likely bashed and bruised 'Cause now I get no chances because back then I was wack as too And they can't look past the past they say this "poofter" is a** They don't hear the similes that I put in my bars But this Villain Is Sick like i'm Crook In A Mask And I'mma always Kick It Hard like my Foot's In A Cast (But I'm....) [Hook: Braidz] Now I'm trying not to give up But it just gets so hard 'Cause I ain't having luck in the scene Been feeling like I should say f** It and leave... I give this sh** all of my heart And these guys just turn 'round and laugh Do I continue to please my fans and my pa**ion? Because my mind's saying f** It too me... [Verse: Braidz] Balled so hard now they're calling me a Nutcase Trolled so much now the scene's saying "f** Braidz" But It seems my hate train has slowly stopped upon a station, but In the back of my mind I feel that it's just down for maintenance Now I've started to repent there's dude's barking up my fence Who I used to have love for - Noticed nothing's ever said About me, When I'd ask for help, So s** your mother's tit Rub up on her clit, 'Cause Karma is a Motherf**ing b**h Back when my name was Taboo like one of the Black Eyed Peys All these guys talked like "Braidz is wack" guys, please I could chat my teeth and come up with better lines than crack lined speed Thinking I'm a brash white teen, who's never bashed light geeks? In reality I just got over the street sh** Puffing pipes inbetween spliffs, But knowing all these kids? They'll crack a joke to that bar, like "He got sick of them beefing" Congrats, you found a track that leaked that I never planned on releasing... [Hook: Braidz] Now I'm trying not to give up But it just gets so hard 'Cause I ain't having luck in the scene Been feeling like I should say f** It and leave... I give this sh** all of my heart And these guys just turn 'round and laugh Do I continue to please my fans and my pa**ion? Because my mind's saying f** It too me... [Outro: Sample "Eminem - "Something From Nothing: The Art Of Rap] Eminem:...And then, you know maybe a couple weeks later, days later, hour later? Or whatever it was, I dunno I just, I got the urge like nah man I gotta get up, gotta do it again... Ice T: That's right, thank god...
