Man, I was just tryin to eat
|
is this what happens?
|
yo I’mma do this in one take
|
cause if I gotta do it again,
|
it just wasn’t meant to be…
|
yo Golden Child, I owe you big time for this joint yo
|
that’s my word.
|
people, feel me.
|
|
I sit up nights let the beat loop
|
contemplate what to write
|
think you got me figured out
|
but you’ll never know what its like
|
to live my life the attempts to live up to hype
|
of being the nicest Asian to ever lift the mic
|
if I bite the dust while Im writin this song
|
then I might just end up right where I belong
|
amongst legends that’s how yall should
|
remember me gone but forever existent in a memory
|
so I never ask for applause
|
if all goes well I’ll leave this earth due to a natural cause
|
picture me with my grandkids 60 years old
|
watchin BET footage from 40 years ago
|
like “ya grandfather he use to be a beast
|
when it came time to battle
|
ain’t nobody wanna piece”
|
the way I tell the story they amazed Im older
|
tellin me “grandpa ya glory days is over”
|
flashback to the present moment
|
where the real battles just gettin started
|
and I’m my own opponent
|
ready to call it quits but gettin the busy tone
|
I might stop by radio and pull a Bizzy Bone
|
see my whole life changed in the last 4 years
|
a lot of laughter but definitely not without tears
|
I watched the Asian rap community grow
|
first there was none
|
now theres a few cats that nobody knows
|
I suppose they label me the one that was chosen
|
to open doors for those that were normally closed
|
who oughta get props I composed a list
|
in no particular order yo it goes like this
|
YungMAC the protege LS is a beast
|
lyrically Snacky Chan Thai & FAReast
|
Liv n proof Shogun K Grey I’m wit ya
|
we gota open our eyes and see the bigger picture
|
Jargon INVAZN On Fire get props REIGN ERA
|
Mountain Brothers holla at me Chops!
|
If I didn’t mention ya name don’t take it as a diss
|
you got my support if you takin it serious
|
sometimes my efforts seem unappreciated
|
I know I ain’t shit!! but hey at least I made it
|
this far for yall that didn’t wish me success
|
heres my biggest flaw I still wish yall the best
|
and thru it all I kept a level head listened
|
to GOD and ignored what the devil said
|
I can’t leave rap alone the game needs me
|
hard to let go cause none of this came easy
|
how many times do I gotta prove myself!?
|
do I really gotta battle EM and Lose Myself!??
|
106 The Fight Klub Smack DVD
|
a classic CD well at least it was to me
|
what else can you do to me
|
I went to war with the radio station on behalf of my community
|

|
no more its over for Jin Im tired that’s it.
