Marcus D - The Sub Way lyrics

VERSE 1 Started in Cheverly, the line was orange On January 7th, a star was born Stayed in Seat Pleasant ‘til mom and I moved on To the next stop, come ride along Left pops, moms tired of the fighting and tears So in Landover's where I spent my formative years While living here I met my oldest of peers Underprivileged yet I'm overcoming my fears Like robberies and shootins, now we out in Suitland Right behind my high school to focus on my schoolin' No longer boostin, now I'm beat looping Pre-To This Union, writing with my blue pen Penning blue lines from Pentagon & Addison Battle raps dumb funny like Billy Madison Battlin, til my name spread like a pathogen This is just the start I can feel it in my abdomen! HOOK All I see is lines, letters, colors Zippin' right by, with plenty numbers Runnin' thru my mind, what to make of it It'll make sense one day All I see is lines, letters, colors Zippin' right by, with plenty numbers Limit's the sky, ready, comin' Take the Sub way VERSE 2 Left Maryland, but still spittin these bars Next stop Brooklyn, off of Clinton & Wash New York, New York was the City of Gods In Hip Hop, big stage. Hope they give me a part Took the 4 Union Square, rap ciphers galore Or the A to West 4th hoping I'm in the store Fats Beats showed love, thought I made it for sure Years later, All City on an NY tour… now... HOOK VERSE 3 Take the J to Koscuiszko to see old the crib Or the 2 to Flatbush another place that I lived Shot to JFK, first Tokyo trip Bullet train's like magic, blew my whole brain to bits Everything's changin' chances being taken More time at Grand Central and Penn Station OT. Brazen… confidence. Amazing… Where my train of thought took me with a little training HOOK VERSE 4 Headed back to MD had a family to start Now in Baltimore City couple minutes from the MARC Spending time in DC teaching youth and rippin mics k** a show on U St. at Benning Road I save a life Did the same off Southern Ave. teaching kids to rhyme & more If I wasn't with the youth, highly like I'm on tour Then our brother Junior pa**ed rocked our family to the core Relocated to VA to hold the fam down for sure Out in the burbs not too far Dunn Loren Still nice with the verbs and far from done touring Now we in Huntington and I'm maturing Still in PG everyday ‘cause I'ma support'em Where it all started, I'll head home someday Journey's never easy but I'm making it... someway Some tracks are curved and some straight And not everybody will Take the Sub way
