Been This Way lyrics

Every MC, in this industry, wants one thing
To be the best, in the top of their game
You want it? Come and get me!

[CHORUS]
Do what you gotta do - come and get me
I came from the struggle; I`m bringing my pain with me
Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray (yo)
I been this way since back in the day YUP
Do what you gotta do - come and get me
I came from the struggle; I`m bringing my pain with me
Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray (yo)
I been this way since back in the day

Yo Shan, lets take `em

You couldn`t rock a joint with a mic and a pound of week
You couldn`t get a point across with a pen and a key a pee
You couldn`t get high as me with two tabs of LSD
Cool as a cucumber with two sticks of celery
Spit like watermelon pips from your jojoba lips
Hands mo callus can see excel from the mics I read
My rhyme patterns supreme mm the baddest
Fresh - woo - my flows the fattest
Yeah and I gotta do this for those that never had it
But climbed the ladder only to watch all their dreams shatter
They doubled my pain; I tripled my skills in hip-hop
Quadrupled my strength, quintupled my props - yo
I got it locked yo and I`m ready to drop yo
And you can hit me with everything that you got yo
But I will not fall or trip over obstacles
Its logical I`m gonna run hip hop into the cortical

[CHORUS]
Do what you gotta do - come and get me
I came from the struggle; I`m bringing my pain with me
Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray (yo)
I been this way since back in the day YUP
Do what you gotta do - come and get me
I came from the struggle; I`m bringing my pain with me
Nothing you can say will ever lead me astray (yo)
I been this way
