Back in the days was kinda crazy kid I started out with nothin

Wasn't livin like Thanksgiving I was turkey without the stuffin

Sometimes I sweared to God that I was headed for the poorhouse

Say mama caught the drama she would bleed tryin to feed 4 mouths

Wasn't rockin Girbauds I barely had clothes and when it snowed

and temperatures droppin below zero you know I froze

No CD's a black and white TV a seat is a rubber tire

with a hanger for the antenna, turned channels with some pliers

Had nothin in my cabinet, but cans of Raid

I'm knockin on my neighbor's door

to borrow a cup of sugar for my Kool-Aid

I wasn't freshly dipped, my gear was straight ripped, I'm trippin

cause my winter coat got lost buttons

and zippers that wouldn't stay zipped

I never remembered ?, the brother was straight fat cat

Not even a Big Mac black, I had Kid Castle topped with crackerjacks

Walkin the streets, with the weak sneaks on my feet

And the freaks wouldn't speak, I never had lipstick on my cheek

So much for gettin humped from the stunts, I always struck out

The one y'all likes is takin hikes if you can't pull a buck out

So now I gots to dedicate my next plate to all the homeboys and girls

Straight up baby, I'm blowin up in the world



Blowin up, blowin up in the world

Blowin up, blowin up in the world!

I'm blowin up the world, I gotta get mines, I gotta get mines

I gotsta get mines, youknowhatI'msayin? I'm blowin up in the world



Blowin up, blowin up in the world

Blowin up, blowin up in the world!

I'm blowin up the world, I gotta get mines, I gotta get mines

I gotsta get mines, yeah...



It seems like only yesterday, my moms was on my back
