Nothing To Lose

Lyrics

[Bridge] I be going for broke I be going for broke Getting low on my doe cause I be paying my dues Now I got nowhere to go I got nowhere to go So I'm going for broke cause I got nothing to lose [Verse One: Iron Solomon] To put my pen in the business I need a better incentive Because the loans from these labels just ain't be getting my interest And all my dead broke friends got their chedda invested So for the Benjamin Franklins we all be getting inventive I put the perfect punctuation at the end of each sentence So if I think it I say it and if said it I meant it I like stretchin' out the boundaries and testin' the limits I might make ignorant music but bury messages in it This is the style I use to battle with and everyone bit it And you can hear it in their patterns though they'll never admit it But it really doesn't matter I'll reinvent in a minute To make it new and improve it so keep it fresh and authentic See I be learnin, watchin' legends how the veterans did this So now I'm grownin' up to show em there's no better apprentice I've traveled way too far to ever measure the distance They call me God MC can I get me a witness [Hook: Iron Solomon] I let em know (let em know) Let em know (let em know) Tell a friend tell a foe let em know (let em know) Get a grip (get a grip) or let it go (let it go) Tell a friend tell a foe let em know [Isiah] I got nothing to lose (nothing to lose) I got nothing to lose (nothing to lose) I got nothing to lose (nothing to lose) I got nothing to lose [Verse Two: Iron Solomon] They call me General Solomon all the people enlisted I'm breakin' free of the system I put my keys in ignition I hit the road and start movin' cause I'm so eager and driven That I'll be showin' and provin' instead of dreamin' and wishin' I know the shoes I'm pursuin' in it ain't that easy to fill 'em But still I'm one step away from havin' completed the mission I knew the path I was taken would put my feet in position Since I was kickin my mama from in the fetal position So now I'm healin the children like I'm a pediatrician Injecting truth in my music and we don't need a prescription So when I'm talking they're watching and when I'm speakin they listen They'll see that my vision is everything the media's isn't Because I'm cookin' up food for thought and I'm feedin' em wisdom So if you're hungry for knowledge come take a seat in my kitchen I'm like Mohammed to Muslims I'm like Jesus to Christians I'm like Moses in Egypt but I ain't preaching religion [Hook] [Bridge] I be going for broke I be going for broke Getting low on my do cause I be paying my dues Now I got nowhere to go I got nowhere to go So I'm going for broke cause I got nothing to lose [Outro] I got nothing to lose (go go go go go go go) [x4]
