歌词
【verse1】
It was all a dream,
I used to read Word Up magazine,
Salt'n'Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine,
Hangin' pictures on my wall,Every Saturday Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl,
I let my tape rock 'til my tape popped,Smokin' **** and bamboo, sippin' on private stock,
Way back, when I had the red and black lumberjack,
With the hat to match,Remember Rappin' Duke,
duh-ha, duh-ha,
You never thought that hip hop would take it this far,
Now I'm in the limelight 'cause I rhyme tight,
Time to get paid, blow up like the World Trade,
Born sinner, the opposite of a winner,
Remember when I used to eat sardines for dinner
I'm blowin' up like you thought I would
Call the crib, same number same hood
It's all good
【hook】
I still see your shadows in my room,
Can't take back the love that I gave you,
It's to the point where I love and I hate you,And I cannot change you so I must replace you (oh),
Easier said than done,
I thought you were the one,
Listening to my heart instead of my head,You found another one,
But I am the better one,
I won't let you forget me
REPEAT x2
【verse2】
I never had much, ran with a bad bunch,
Little skinny kid sneakin **** in my bag lunch,
And all through Junior High, we was just gettin by,
And drivebys robbed my homies of their young lives,
I never did cry, and even though I had,pain in my heart,
I was hopeless from the start,
They couldn't tell me nothin, they all tried to help to help me,
The ********* had my mind gone it wasn't healthy,
I travelled places, caught cases, what a ill year,
I felt the pain and the rain but I'm still here,Never did like the police, let the whole world know,
Now I gets no peace, cause they chasin me down,
And facin me now, what do I do?
These thangs that a Thug goes through,
And still I rise so keep ya head up, and make ya mind strong,
It's a struggle every day but you gotta hold on
【hook】
I still see your shadows in my room,
Can't take back the love that I gave you,
It's to the point where I love and I hate you,And I cannot change you so I must replace you (oh),
Easier said than done,
I thought you were the one,
Listening to my heart instead of my head,You found another one,
But I am the better one,
I won't let you forget me
