  33. Tryin' to chase rap, gotta move ASAP
  34. And get a new plan, momma's got a new man
  35. Poor little baby sister, she don't understand

  39. Ain't no tellin' what really goes on in her little head

  47. Yo I won't tell no lie, not a moment goes by
  48. That I don't pray to the sky, please I'm beggin' you God
  49. Please don't let me be pigeonholed in no regular job
  50. Yo I hope you can hear me homey wherever you are
  51. Yo I'm tellin' you dawg I'm bailin' this trailer tomorrow

  57. Off to work I go, back to this childhood
  58.  
  59.  
  60.  
  61.  
  62. You gotta live it to feel it, you didn't you wouldn't get it
  63. Or see what the big deal is, why it was and it still is
  64. To be walkin this borderline of Detroit city limits
  65. It's different, it's a certain significance, a certificate
  66. Of authenticity, you'd never even see
  67. But it's everything to me, it's my credibility
  68. You never seen heard smelled or met a real MC
  69. Who's incredible upon the same pedestal as me
  70. But yet I'm still unsigned, havin' a rough time
  71. Sit on the porch with all my friends and kick dumb rhymes
  72. Go to work and serve MCs in the lunchline
  73. But when it comes crunch time, where do my punchlines go
  74. Who must I show, to bust my flow
  75. Where must I go, who must I know
  76. Or am I just another crab in the bucket
  77. Cause I ain't havin' no luck with this little bum foot so fuck it
  78. Maybe I need a new outlet, I'm startin to doubt shit
  79. I'm feelin' a little skeptical who I hang out with
  80. I look like a bum, yo my clothes ain't about shit
  81. At the Salvation Army tryin to salvage an outfit
  82. And it's cold, tryin' to travel this road
  83. Plus I feel like I'm on stuck in this battlin mode
  84. My defenses are so up, but one thing I don't want
  85. Is pity from no one, the city is no fun
  86. There is no sun, and it's so dark
  87. Sometimes I feel like I'm just bein' pulled apart
  88. From each one of my limbs, by each one of my friends
  89. It's enough to just make me wanna jump out of my skin
  90. Sometimes I feel like a robot, sometimes I just know not
  91. What I'm doin I just blow, my head is a stove top
  92. I just explode, the kettle gets so hot
  93. Sometimes my mouth just overloads the ass that I don't got
  94. But I've learned, it's time for me to U turn
  95. Yo it only takes one time for me to get burned
  96. Ain't no fallin' no next time I meet a new girl
  97. I can no longer play stupid or be immature
  98. I got every ingredient, all I need is the courage
  99. Like I already got the beat, all I need is the words
  100. Got the urge, suddenly it's a surge
  101. Suddenly a new burst of energy has occurred
  102. Time to show these free world leaders the 3 and a third
  103. I am no longer scared now, I'm free as a bird
  104. Then I turn and cross over the median curb
  105. Hit the 'burbs and all you see is a blur
