Seven Years

Lyrics

[Intro] When the song hit ya know Ya know what it mean for you and me This is my big chance This is what I've been waiting for ever since I come to town Nothing can stop me now ya know I don't have to worry anymore After this song hit for you and me [Verse 1: Count Bass D] One two, one two My name is Count Bass D and we get down like this you understand me This is how we do it You gotta understand You must Yeah Uhh Yeah First of all, thank you baby, for having our third seed But it is scary for me, because I'm running low on money I slave and strive to provide for the five of us Even if that means you take the car and I ride the bus You know the deal on this industry These rappers out here swear up and down that they could beat me But my crew is my flesh and blood Not no corny street team running from a fair one People tell me that deep music is on the comeback Right now who can compete with all this ice talk and gun crap I wrestle night and day about decisions I have made I should have made better choices and avoided shame But hindsight is a magnifying glass I can analyze all day but it won't change the past Even still you support me like a superstar I sport my wedding band in honor of how real you are I need to stop advertising you to people though Because I see them foul niggas dreaming about ya yo But when I get my just due We can make it Committed for seven years baby and that's my statement [Verse 2: Count Bass D] Pharoahe and Common got the light but we in the dark On how to keep this thing together like we feel we ought I told DOOM about the baby and he praised the blessing While others scoff and say you have to don't you learn your lesson I don't reply and try to say something fly People wonder why even though it's not their bi (business?) It's between me and u in front of everyone The ones who offer help and the one who offers none The ones who give us clothes the ones who turn their nose The ones who are in favor the ones who are opposed Dione Farris: Ix7, I gotta do it. Ix7, ooh ah We built this family who cares who tries to change it Committed for seven years baby and that's my statement
