Testo 1993 Jay Prince

1993

Back in 1993, I was just a little g
Mama told me get my shit together
Maybe we could eat
Papa coming home late, yo my nigga where you been?
Sixteen, I can tell you it was nothing but a dream
Yeah I do this for my city, yeah I do it for the east
Best believe, yeah I know a couple brothers that would do it for the beef
It's that thing that girl you thinking what you doing with your life?
It's that thing that girl you thinking, yeah the boy kinda nice
The boy kinda right
No job my nigga, unemployed for a while
Music is all I know, is deeper than what I write
It's deeper than what she rides
It's deeper than what you like
I was thinking for a minute
I was chilling, I was sipping something different
With my homies, sailing south
But I know that shit is real
But I know you meet these people
For a reason in this world
How you feel, just tell me how you feel

If you feel me, if you with me
Then go ahead and put your hands up, hands up
If you feel me, if you with me
Then go ahead and put your hands up
This is all I know, this is all I know
This is all I know, is all know
This is all I know, this is all I know
Spread this, spread love is all I know
This is all I know, this is all I know
This is all I know, is all know
That's all I know

Some people still be feeling low
And I'm just tryina give these people hope
Good just a week ago, change in a week or so
Ain't no surprise if you're living in the ghetto
Back in '04 niggas rob you for a phone
Shit changed I know
Young homie so grown, I ain't even 24
Cut through 24
I was in a dime day, that's okay, that's on start
Little hope, little faith, get it on, that's the way
For it get it some ways
I've been chilling in the studio
Been writing all day
I've been tryina find a way
To get through all the blaze
To get through the blaze
Blaze, tryina find a way to pay for way
I ain't tryina fade away
I'm just tryina make a way
I'm just tryina stay great
I'm just tryina find a way
To get through all the blaze

If you feel me, if you with me
Then go ahead and put your hands up, hands up
If you feel me, if you with me
Then go ahead and put your hands up
This is all I know, this is all I know
This is all I know, is all know
This is all I know, this is all I know
Spread this, spread love is all I know
This is all I know, this is all I know
This is all I know, is all know
That's all I know

It's time I started speaking my mind
Homie get yours, I'm just tryina get mine
I'm tryina bring together, don't stay split and divide
No wonder why your people hate you
When you try and do right
City full of dreams, city full of vultures
I do it for the culture, I do it for everybody
That said I wasn't supposed to
Gaya de la voga, whatever that means
Nowadays my dream seem to be underneath the belly of the beast
I'ma tell you how I'm eating
Forget the after party, meet me on the weekend
2 days of freedom
Back into the cycle and you're hoping that your week ends
Tell me who's the weakest

I've been acting on my visions lately
Don't call me crazy, sipping coming out my jeans a vacant
There's no escaping, play the game but question all the phases
??? when I'm fading, drunken master when I'm on your playlist
Show me where the jams is
And roll my lucky dots,
Tripping for my head just fried
Falling man no cooling, wipe the drool and lift these heavy eyes
It comes no surprise
They feel the energy, but let it breathe and keep in time
I keep they see the light
But tell me, tell me where you fit in
Close your eyes and reach it's time to vibe to this and listen
Chase your vision, keep on running til you get it
Play it, play it till you win it
Only you could see the finish
The misadventures of the illest
Until I reach the high ??? those who seek and live in
For now I keep it moving brown, chilling like a villain
Couple seconds till I finish
Man the clock is always ticking
Ticking, ticking, ticking
