Lyrics

[Verse 1] Envision a landscape that backdates to 80s Miami That's when this kid moved there with his family, straight outta Cali At an early age Already learning the traits that'll carry with him from his early stages to the pearly gates Even as a child it's hard to ignore the murder rates When all your life fights, shots and flashing lights were commonplace Before the drama shows, and Serato codes I'm talking FM to cassette Pause, the song is yours By the time I got on that Cypress Hill my mind was blowed My homie Gregman had the ganja rolled Will Deal introduced me to Mic Geronimo But I still had love for the west Had the vinyl version of Domino So Vamanos MC battles I title hold But I was more concerned with resonating around the globe Sweet as the blood of diabetics to honor why I did it Love as a fan, foremost, before the writer credits [Verse 2] Suspense was never missin' for instance I witnessed multiple heists, was possibly in 'em Both culprit & victim But I went through premonitions, envisioning better living Started timid, flipped my confidence to a higher percentage Never minding my image Never intended to be hip-hop's first Cuba-Rican rap nerd, I just did it There comes a moment when you notice the truth There's no avoiding the absolute This always was you Sobering moments from a Dr. Potted Hoping the knowledge spreads to the hypocritical oafs that surround it The front page shows crazy bumpkins got played like trumpets Currently 80 muskets are waving at lady justice So naturally rappers like me demand action in droves Don't dismiss me as a battle rapper cause I snap on my poems Battling bigotry using imagery From every moment in history to now til infinity [Cashmere The Pro] [Verse 3] You see their faces in the cypher The dreams of taking it higher Writers with phat lines with hopes of making it tighter It's the desire To be the greatest is what they aspire They light up the minute when you eye 'em Spittin the fire Dragon saliva drippin You see the entire mission They ain't just live to be hip when their kind is wired different The source comes from loss Still they finding additions The force of they cause That got the empire trippin The growth of the youngin is the result of the struggling The product of corner hugging The gun bussin' & hustling The strip clubbin' and thuggin' was cliche The beast way He lynched emcees in silence while pressed hunting for substance No levy broken to wreck off the dome Syllables more than Gs when there's more than double X in your chromosomes It's like you lost your zone Ain't reach your twilight Step in the limelight And it just feels like you're going home
