[B.I.G.]
1970 somethin' nigga I don't sweat the date my moms was late
So I had to plan my escape out the skins
In this world the fly girls
Tangeray and Hennesey until I call Earl
10 months in this gut, what the fuck
I wish moms would hurry up so I can get buck wild
Juvenile with the mics n shit
New York New York, ready for the likes of this
Then came the worst date, May 21st 2:19 was when my momma water burst
No spouse in the house, so she rolled herself
To the hospital, to see if she could get a little help
Umbilicle cords wrapped around my neck
Im seein' my death, and I ain't even took my first step
I made it out im bringin' mad joy
The docter looked and said he's gonna be BAD BOY!
[Faith Evans]
I remember back in time
Before all the homies died
Before all the dollars and nines
I knew that I was goin' somewhere
Let me take you back in time
Before I even got the rhyme
Before I had nickels and dimes
I knew that I was goin' somewhere
[The Game]
Would Pac be alive, if you let Pac drive
Swear to God to reverse it I give my left eye
With the right I visualized, the king of bed-stuy
Checkin' his daughter Tianna into Junior High
If I was in Brooklyn, and B.I. was still alive,in 2006 it might sound like this
N.Y. 718 212, with Sue's rendez- vous
Just like Moulin Rouge
High fashion, up town Air Force Ones
And Vasquez, Puerto Ricans with fat asses
Lace Dutch masters, we dump ashes, on models and S classes
For you bastards, catch a cab to Manhattan
With that Broadway actin', you hype that belly shit
Would u get u capped, and wrapped in plastic,
Tell the captain, S Roge was happenin',
But here nor speak no evil, inside the Magnum
[Faith Evans]
I remember back in time
Before all the homies died
Before all the dollars and nines
I knew that I was goin' somewhere
Let me take you back in time
[B.I.G.]
Now i'm 13 smokin' blunts, makin' green,
On the drug scene, fuck the football team,
Risk it, ruptured spleen by the age of 16,
Hearin' the coach scream, at my lifetime dream,
I mean, I wanna blow up, stack my doe up,
So school I didn't show up, it fucked my flow up,
Mom said that I should grow up, and check myself,
Before I wreck myself, disrespect myself,
Put the drugs on the shelf, nahhh! I couldn't see it,
Scarface king of New York, I wanna be it,
Rap was secondary, money was neccessary,
Until I got encarcerated, kinda scary,
See '74 March 8, set me straight, not able to move behind a great steel gate,
Time to contemplate, damn were did I fail,
All the money I stacked, was all the money for bail
[Faith Evans]
I remember back in time
Before all the homies died
Before all the dollars and nines
I knew that I was goin' somewhere
Let me take you back in time
Before I even got the rhyme
Before I had nickels and dimes
I knew that I was goin' somewhere
