All That I Have
Quelle: Spotify
[Verse 1]
This is for the fans in sports cars to mini-vans
That came from broken homes or driving in their dad’s Mercedes Benz
Asking if I need a bag of that marijuana plant
To the ones I haven’t met out in Germany and France
Saying, “don’t forget about us when you hit it big!”
And yeah, I’d also like to thank the ones who said I wasn’t shit
What, you think that I don’t know I’m gonna pay for what I did?
The alcohol had got me overweight and trying to suck it in
Wish I wasn’t such an angry kid! I’d do it all again
When MC Hammer was looking like a genie in a lamp
I’m trying to find a stable way of paying every month of rent
I appreciate the messages you send me on the internet
And go ahead and do your thing, ‘cause I’ll just tell it like it is
If they’ve read me like a book, then what a book it must of been!
For the hours that I’ve spent digging out a hidden gem
To older folks who blow us off, look at us and shake their heads
(Who) want to see how I react, if they can push me to the edge
Damn! They really try take from you as much as they can get!
Must have thought I wasn’t there, and that’s just music to my ears!
Don’t get it twisted more than Chubby Checker did with his career
Cause it’s great to be here with you, but the moments that we’ve shared
I’ve had to juggle back and forth as it was a record player
Sick of quick to get reminded of the way I ought to live
By who’s unhappy with their life. That isn’t making any sense!
There’s so many emcees, who they came and then they went
Their glory days have washed away as if we’re castles made of sand
Oh! I’ve had a lot of fun and done a lot of crazy things
And the best is yet to come! Remember who you’re fucking with!
[Hook]
All that I have, the good with the bad
Slips with the sand I hold in my hand
By the time it gets away from me
Still it’s got its hold on me
Still it’s got its hold on me
[Verse 2]
It’s the man, the myth, the legend; who’s dressed for his successes
The chance of major league has got me swinging for the fences!
I live for going in and thinking big is my perspective
Advancing with the grammar hammers anyone it catches
Walking through cemeteries when life isn’t being cherished
It feels like forever since I heard unforgettable lyrics
Using all of the elements put together
I’m husky like Connecticut, arrogant, medicated American
Rhymes open your mouth wider than a dental hygienist
Who’s singing an Irish song while he’s swinging a pint of Guinness
You’re really out your head if you think I’m over and jealous
The politics of the business I’m in are dirty as ever
Some need to remember that I’m invented with every sentence!
Who threw me under the bus and it felt like a bed of feathers;
Who couldn’t be more ghost then if they wrote these bars
Yet, act as if they threw a dart and hit the bullseye part
I’m still as vicious with ambition, fit to blow these parts
My quick decision intuition leaves you so distraught
Yeah, this is pedal to the metal, instead of it get repetitive
Better and better, doing whatever, cause you aren’t ready yet!
The whole package with a pressure that’s on faster
Than checking your phone text, while you drive and your car crashes
So what’s an easy way to hunt a sitting duck?
It’s when they do the minimum and yet expect live it up
I’ll send a message to competitors and fold my arms
They’re hard to find in California like a full-time job
While my thoughts are on sipping wine to get to know fine art
Yet, even though I don’t collect as if a phone lines charged
I’m too grown for all the devilish unintelligent menace
Who’s storming through Heaven’s gates as if they said I wasn’t intended
Cause most of you cats aren’t even stretching beyond average
Be glad that you fall flat on your back on a soft mattress
[Hook]
