You might not understand now because the picture is taintedI'm 'a take the time out for y'all to try to explain itI was a kid in Jers', no name, no stageListen close while I get everybody on the same pageMe and Dub made music, but times was hardAnd we really couldn't pursue it 'cause we both jobsRight said we could get straight creamRap over other niggas' beats, and I ain't know about the mixtape sceneSo we did that, going off my god brother's promiseI spit 100 bars over NastradamusAnd Right's new cut, so I had hope all alongNext C tape was two freestyles and a songHe gave C my demo, said It's a go, I bet you.C said He's alright, but what's so special? Held on to it, and it must have been luckBecause some nigga named Webb went in the back of his truckAnd found my shit; listening to rhythm was I'llSaid this kids alright, watch me get him a dealOnTop met me and Dub, and we liked themGave us 10 G's, a Mackie and aStarted making music looselyBut DJs was hesitant to play him 'cause nobody knew meI guess Joe Budden was newI needed some help, so Fab came threw and we did Coming for YouDid another joint later on with Tah Murda and Black ChildThe streets finally started to react nowMade some songs, it was such a long processSkane stopped by to check progressAnd then Webb steady banging Clue who was still ignoringCutmaster and Envy was still supportingThen Clue got with it 'cause my man called hypeTelling me I'm on the Clue tape spitting to Let's Get ItPeople started to see what was what nowYa' boy got a little bit of buzz nowEverything was so timely'Cause Skane went up there and told Kevin Lyles he wanted to sign meSo OnTop went to meet with Leo and Kev' about businessThey started to talk some Spit shitIt was a new label we ain't know all aboutFor rappers they wanted to sign but wasn't sure aboutMade it sound worth my while, though it was weird for meTold me if I broke the label, they would take care of mePut out Get Right a way to speed things upBut that shit ain't keep things upThat Def Jam treated Spit as a knock offAnd Jumpoff's better than that y'all, I got offThen I'm on Def Jam, waiting and chillingLeft the mixtapes to get things straight in the buildingLeft the street dry, I ain't give 'em no etherNitty and Skane up there begging for a featureAnd they gave us one, and we thought it was hittingWe thought 3rd story would sell, but they didn'tAnd I liked that song and the hookPlus they was shooting a video, and we was mad thirsty for a lookBut they ruined that shit, had my whole camp feeling the worstAt the last minute cut my 2nd verseAnd the politics had me hopelessAnd the label just kept overlooking me, so let me focus (So focused, man)And traveled from state-to-state, club bangerNo video spinning, top 8 at 8By the time Def Jam knew it bumped and had flavor,The record died down, this is 8 months laterAnd that whole time, I was out of the street mixSo they tried to bring it back with a bullshit remixAnd now they respecting a niggaBut I'm scared 'cause the SoundScan is straight disrespecting a niggaSo it's back to the mixtapes where I don't have to deal with the nonsenseAnd the next two leaders is common senseSo at a time where the whole rap game is shakenIs a slot right open, and it's there for the taking
