(Intro: Inspectah Deck) It's not Jacob, but you can still call me the jeweler You know how I throw that jewelry on you And this one right here, this is just a tennis bracelet You rock that with your white Nikes, and your white tee Sunny Dave' style, ya'll feel me? Come on (Inspectah Deck) I dreamed I was top of the world, watching the world Awoke to a room full of smoke, gun at my throat I dwell in the heart of the hell, but never fell Po'nine scopin' me the whole time, they close behind My wants just as big as my needs, so it's agreed To strap up, tie these shoes, provide the school A wild out, had to hide out, in China's house Then run free, down to 1G, and hungry I won't fold, from the chokehold, I broke molds Fake ones, fake as they come, waiting to front I fight if it cost me my life, toss me the knife To move up, I do what I must, but who to trust I came from the grain and remain mentally stained The hardships, starving artist, it's obvious I'm 'raging against the machine' to make some CREAM That's how we live, just grab your kids, now we big All up in The Source, we flip and win the toss The law say, lock 'em away, vow to this day The world is ours, we the loud ones at early hours Striving, for a new way, my dues are payed (Chorus 2X: Inspectah Deck) All I want is mine. All I want is mine. All I want is mine. All I want is mine. (Interlude w/ Chorus: Inspectah Deck) Yeah. I mean, yo, we grinding out here We got our lives on the line We got oddballs watching us We got fucking thieves, crooks, murderers Gangstas, we got all types of shit we gotta watch out for Let alone, your right hand man'll send shots to wet you, son Shit. (Inspectah Deck) My conscience beggin' me chills, steady we build I ask, is it back to the cracks after the raps Where I'm from, used to be fun, soon'll become A deathtrap, mental setback, forget that I'mma do this, for that all I am, call out a man Black like Sidney Portier, boy, beware The future's now, my superpowers could move the crowd The road I follow, so far to go to see tomorrow I'm close to the edge, my folks are mislead Some, lose a step, lyric clueless, they choosin' death That's the wrong vibe, the strong survive, known as they strive Now watch me, top of the key, dropping a three In my fate, the biography state, I would be great For now, I milk the cow, build it from the ground More or less, continue conquest hard as it gets The promised land, ain't promised to a honest man So, right or wrong, I'm fighting on this life long Now let me live, set for my wiz and seven kids I hit the block focus like Mr. Spock And whether, rhymes or crimes, all I want is mines (Chorus 2X) (Outro: Inspectah Deck) All I want is mines, what they expect us to do? They taking programs to a channel, man You gotta pay to be locked up, you ain't getting no jobs Niggaz got three/four kids, four or five baby moms No crib, living out they cars and shit I got to get mines... then ain't no stopping I'mma do what I gotta do, and I'mma rep for my set My nigga Case rest in peace, my nigga, I'mma see you The'll never take me alive, the'll never take me alive.
