Can You Hear Me Now

[VERSE 1]Damn if i be some slave again

Got no fake ass friends no timbs or rims

Sure nuff dont know no designer names

And i never played no video games

I aint got no diamond rings

No bling, bling, no minks

No 2 earrings

No pimp glasses mugs

Or cups and things

Or whatever the hell they be

CarryinDont treat my highs too high

Or my lows too low

You wont see my soul souled on no video

Bdont need no checks to get no chicks

Or be some hypocrite to get you on my

So let the young sing and rap to the young

As long as yall dont think freedom

Is free to be dumb[VERSE 2]

Its suicidal to think im your american idol

Hypnotic trapped in a 3000 mile box

Chicks bobby sox today be botox

Now that hip hops the new so called rock

Parents dressin the outside

Of their kids

An what they wear

Instead of stressin the inside

Way back , my peoples gave me pride

Now in 2004 i aint gotta hide

If you cant afford it just leave it to the side

Cause you looking real stupid with that tear in your eye

Gotta a 1994 hear you talkin

But its damn sure better than walkin

It might be old, it sure aint gold

Better than stylin in the cold

It aint no rolls,so wont get stoled

But you wont see me walking on no side of the road[VERSE 3]

At the age i am now

If i cant teach

I shouldnt even open up my mouth begin to speak

I need some radio

To help me reach

But i heard they get their money on

By makin you weak

Drowning in the sea of

Some big dose of now

No past no future

Let the young grow wild

Aint gave em nuttin

Some done robbed the child

From substance

Dont currr , fill em up wit style

Like hip hop started on trl, like wow

Took the game and made it a gdamn shame

Hell wit history you dont even

Know my name

I aint the same damn thing

That yall used to playin

Im non stop rocket

Headin to your brain

Now thats what im sayin[VERSE 4]

I may not got no flow

But i aint pimped by no negro

Backed by some

Cracka wit

His ass by the door

ThereforeI can never be poor

Cause my mind , body, and soul

Cannot be sold

PricelessSo i avoid the trifelin

Worms in my cipher

Stuff yall cant get enough off

Gots no time for

Somebodys jail

My time is just like the

US mailMy time is richer

Than them new astro pitchers

I be damn if my face

Be under some picture

Where you heard the nword

So save your liquid

Pe we just here to flip it

Find somebody new to get wit

The next time you hear a

Cat who cant

Stand or even look in the mirror
