Cause, i'm-a do it right this time Right this time, write this line, write it down, down deep into your mind I make a difference, I make thoughts happen I make worlds collide, and I make just enough to survive All jokes aside. I may of lost a few battles But this is still war. I used to hand out my tapes But then I got hungry. the landlord needed money And I didn't have his funding. so that day I started running And relied on just my cunning. man, it really wasn't funny So I moved out to the sunny, california Shores were the stars are born Tried to leave it all behind, but one early morning I went soaring all the way across these states I hit the road and did some shows right back to la Now every night I stand and plea for all of you to buy these lines I've been waiting for this moment all my very short whole life... hold on I used to hand out my tapes, but then I got hungry I used to give out my words, but then I needed money I'll bite the head off a sentence and spit it in the crowd And if it makes you like me more I'll do it really loud Hey hey, I say the words, that's what I do, it's all I know I use them on the road, at my shows, in studios And I'm leaving in my car, girl Don't know when I'll be back again So kiss me twice, and let me go It's time for me to do some shows And I'll say these words over eqs beats While yall listen to me, this stuff ain't for free There's writing on the walls and all you have to do is listen With your eyes and you'll finally see what's missing See hip hop, it made me say it wrong Made me spell it wrong Made me put it in a song And now everyone thinks that it's really really funny My music is made by clowns for cars and money Hair bands turned into grunge bands Turned into boy bands, turned into rap toy shams Well don't worry it will find its way without me But I want for everyone to understand why I'm doubting I know that there's better things to be sold on But I've been waiting for this moment for all my life... hold on And I'm leaving in my car, girl Don't know when I'll be back again Oh baby, I hate to go So kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Oh baby, I gotta go
