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 protégé 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
bout to retire pull a Hova I quit
