Yeah, now I was born by the river in a little tent
Little gate, little fence, I climbed over
Little scrapes, little dents, I got over
That was just the beginning, it's not over
It's been a long time coming, Cam
It's been a long time riding and a long time running, man
Shit done changed since the Wop and the Running Man
Since Nino, Gee Money, the Carter and the Duh-Duh Man
It's no longer a New Jack City
It's cop fast and move that quickly or cops crash
Spent a long time coming up this road
And I ain't talking rap, man, I'm coming up this road
I'm talking crack, man, and coming up with O's
I'm coming up with halves and I'm coming up with wholes
Shit got hectic, had to come up with my hoes
They would boof it and go, I receive it, move it and roll
I was coming from the Q, Zeek was coming from the O
Jim chose to give his work to Smashing Dough
We was all on the paper run
Yeah, waiting for a change to come, now look, the change has come
The seven pickup, Yukon, the Range has come
The day has come, Dipset remains the ones
Most hated by you other motherfuckers in this game
We remain, it's a shame, 'cause
Now Lord you know just how hard I've tried
To live my life and get it right
Trying to see some light
That there'll be a better way
On the way, a new day someday
Yesterday was filled with sorrow
But tomorrow, it gets better
I know, tell you I know
