Conceive true deception multiplied a million foldVisualize the yin and yang in a battle so intenseThat we get 'em confusedThe resident evil specialize in misconstruingWe wanna be at a Presidential level, what are we doing?Foolin' ourself, clownin' ourself, playin' ourselfBy not bein' ourselfWe can't babble no more than we can bob our head offbeatNimrod by the time we forty 'cause we can't get our meatWhile we ask no reason for the misplacement of the seasonLook at the picture that's paintedTainted as the mind who's blinded to the pointWhere Sodomites get all the rightsWe fall for fights with fistcuffsGet pissed enough to miss the busIt disgusts me to see my folks run up onI say stand up on deception of time all of RevelationsAnd recognize this mind on the reality of horror known as mankindJesus and His Twelve Disciples make thirteenA righteous number of righteous menEven Judas the Betrayer came true in the endThe Devil say the end is the beginningThey teach that we were the product of incestInvest no level of self into their system of PaganomicsStand with us and don't look back upon itJust face this mind stateOtherwise BabylonMy memories of yesterday(Ninety-six gonna be that year)Yeah(Ninety-six gonna be that year)Yeah(Ninety-six gonna be that year)Yeah, like that(Ninety-six gonna be that year)YeahI bet you never heard of a playa with no gameTold the truth to getWhat I want but shot it with no shameTake this music dead serious while others entertainI see they makin' they paperSo I guess I can't complain or can I?I feel they disrespectin' the whole thangThem hooks like sellin' dope to black folksAnd I choke when the food they serve ain't tastin' rightMy stomach can't digest it even when I bless itI'm confessin' one mo' lessonFrom the South we in the house tonightNow hootie who wants to oppose? SupposeWe roll through Headland and DeloweWhere me and my niggaz surpassed the flowAnd got down for ours like hind catchersMy mind catches flashbacks to the black pastWhile my close niggaz laugh atThe Southern slang, finger waves and Mojo chicken wangsI grew up on booty shake we did not know no better thangSo go 'head and, diss it, while real hop-hippers listenStarted by Afrikan Bambaata, so you and your potnahGather your thoughts(Ninety-six gonna be that year)Something's gotta changeSounds of laughter and happiness turns my teardrops to rainBeen bearing this burden for too many of my daysLooks like breezes of autumn done finally blew my way(Ninety-six gonna be that year)Like memories of yesterdayUhh, born Antwan Patton but my potnahs they call me Big BoiIt's the nigga the B-I-G,Be speakin' the truth not talkin' that shit boiI'm thinkin' of checkin' my trapsAnd bustin' my raps and throwin' them crapsSeven-eleven is no convenience,You pumpin' your gas, they're watchin' yo' backFor the robbin' crew, thinkin' they robbin' you,You must be cautiousTo stand up on yo' game and pimpin'These crows you must be flawlessLike Mortal Kombat, but fuckin' these wombats got you dizzyMy nigga you know of I wanna be playin'But runnin' up on me like you miss meYou catchin' the wrong vibe, packin' yo' shitAnd rollin' yo' eyes backFlexin' up on the corner tossin' your diceAnd rollin your CadillacBut man it seems I'm reachin' outAnd touchin' the wrong niggaDon't expect me to be pimpin' get your index off the triggerAs we bust, us, we leavin' 'em in the dustSo keep that clean up out of your noseI said my piece and then I hushAs the candidate keeps flippin', niggaz dippin'(Ninety-six gonna be that year)Something's gotta changeSounds of laughter and happiness turns my teardrops to rainBeen bearing this burden for too many of my daysLooks like breezes of autumn done finally blew my way(Ninety-six gonna be that year)Like memories of yesterdayI really be love it we are gathered to lifeSo pissed to lather we come cleanSome issues need to be addressed like envelopes I meanOh like Liberty Bells yes them bullets keep on rangin'On fire like the Georgia mass choir we keep on sangin'Bringin' our folks closer together'Cause they severed us from the get greenLight and we ain't gon' stop until we hit the big screenPsych because no one is free when others are oppressedSo, we hit the stage and then we fly back to our nestGrowing oldLike some eagles, people don't understandJust like their parents don't be carin'I'm speakin' about you playin'With that phony stuff you sharin'In your raps Mercedes Benz and all your richesThinkin' you got it, but get it get itBut you ain't pimpin' no bitches'Cause you flaw, in, fallin' like leaves into drivewaysIsn't it lovely smokin' good and sloppy head on highwaysFriday's are tight but Saturday just makes it oldWhen tonight's are hot warm enough to feed your soulGrowing oldSomething's gotta changeSounds of laughter and happiness turns my teardrops to rainBeen bearing this burden for too many of my daysLooks like breezes of autumn done finally blew my wayLike memories of yesterday(Ninety-six gonna be that year)Something's gotta changeSounds of laughter and happiness turns my teardrops to rain(Ninety-six gonna be that year)Been bearing this burden for too many of my days(Ninety-six gonna be that year)Looks like breezes of autumn done finally blew my wayLike memories of yesterdaySee all them leaves must fall down, growin' oldFat titties turn to teardrops as fat ass turns to flabSores that was open wounds eventually turn to scabTrees bright and green turn yellow brownAutumn called 'em, see all them leaves must fall down, growin' oldFat titties turn to teardrops as fat ass turns to flabSores that was open wounds eventually turn to scabTrees bright and green turn yellow brownAutumn called 'em, see all them leaves must fall down, growin' oldFat titties turn to teardrops as fat ass turns to flabSores that was open wounds eventually turn to scabTrees bright and green turn yellow brownAutumn called 'em, see all them leaves must fall down, growin' old
