Motherfuckers say that I'm foolish, I only talk about jewels |
| [00:24.50] |
Do you fools listen to music or do you just skim through it? |
| [00:27.51] |
See I'm influenced by the ghetto you ruined |
| [00:29.66] |
That same dude you gave nothing, I made something doing |
| [00:33.01] |
What I do, through and through and I gave you the news with a twist it's just his ghetto point of view |
| [00:38.85] |
The renegade you been afraid |
| [00:40.85] |
I penetrate pop culture, bring 'em a lot closer to the block where they |
| [00:44.21] |
pop toasters, and they live with they mums |
| [00:46.86] |
Got dropped roasters, from botched robberies niggas crotched over |
| [00:49.61] |
Mummy's knocked up cause she wasn't watched over |
| [00:52.52] |
Knocked down by some clown when child support knocked |
| [00:55.72] |
No he's not around now how that sound to ya, jot it down |
| [00:58.62] |
I'll bring you through the ghetto without ridin round |
| [01:00.77] |
hiding down duckin strays from frustrated youths stuck in they ways |
| [01:04.36] |
Just read a magazine that fucked up my day |
| [01:06.82] |
How you rate music that thugs with nothing relate to it? |
| [01:10.33] |
I help them see they way through it, not you. |
| [01:12.33] |
Can't step in my pants, can't walk in my shoes |
| [01:14.77] |
Bet everything you worth; you lose your tie and your shirt. |
| [01:17.57] |
Since I'm in a position to talk to these kids and they listen |
| [01:20.27] |
I ain't no politician but I'll kick it with em a minute |
| [01:22.92] |
Cause see they call me a menace and if the shoe fits I'll wear it |
| [01:25.82] |
But if it don't, then ya'll swallow the truth grin and bear it |
| [01:28.78] |
Now who's the king of these rude ludicrous lucrative lyrics |
| [01:31.58] |
Who could inherit the title, put the youth in hysterics |
| [01:34.32] |
Using his music to steer it sharing his views in his marriage |
| [01:36.83] |
But there's a huge interference they're sayin you shouldn't hear it |
| [01:39.98] |
Maybe it's hatred I spew, maybe it's food for the spirit |
| [01:42.57] |
Maybe it's beautiful music I made for you to just cherish |
| [01:45.47] |
But I'm debated disputed hated and viewed in America |
| [01:47.83] |
as a motherfuckin drug addict like you didn't experiment? |
| [01:51.46] |
Now now, that's when you start to stare at who's in the mirror |
| [01:53.97] |
and see yourself as a kid again, and you get embarrassed |
| [01:56.91] |
And I got nothing to do but make you look stupid as parents |
| [01:59.50] |
You fuckin do-gooders - too bad you couldn't DO-GOOD at marriage! |
| [02:02.30] |
And do you have any clue what I had to do to get here I don't |
| [02:05.05] |
think you do so stay tuned and keep your ears glued to the stereo |
| [02:08.09] |
Cause here we go, he's {Jigga durra Jigga da chk Jigga} |
| [02:10.55] |
And I'm the sinister, Mr. Kiss-My-Ass it's just the.. |
| [02:13.64] |
RENEGADE! Never been afraid to say |
| [02:16.49] |
what's on my mind at, any given time of day |
| [02:19.24] |
Cause I'm a RENEGADE! Never been afraid to talk |
| [02:21.43] |
about anything (ANYTHING) anything (ANYTHING), RENEGADE! |
| [02:25.56] |
Never been afraid to say |
| [02:27.76] |
what's on my mind at, any given time of day |
| [02:30.46] |
Cause I'm a (RENEGADE) Never been afraid to holler |
| [02:33.30] |
about anything (ANYTHING) anything (ANYTHING) |
| [02:36.65] |
I had to hustle, my back to the wall, ashy knuckles |
| [02:39.36] |
Pockets filled with a lot of lint, not a cent |
| [02:41.85] |
Gotta vent, lot of innocent of lives lost on the project bench |
| [02:44.96] |
What you hollarin? Gotta pay rent, bring dollars in |
| [02:48.06] |
By the bodega, iron under my coat, feelin braver |
| [02:51.01] |
Doo-rag wrappin my waves up, pockets full of hope |
| [02:53.71] |
Do not step to me I'm awkward, I box leftier often |
| [02:56.37] |
My pops left me an orphan, my momma wasn't home |
| [02:59.42] |
Could not stress to me I wasn't growin, specially on nights |
| [03:02.48] |
I brought something home to quiet the stomach rumblings |
| [03:05.52] |
My demeanor thirty years my senior |
| [03:07.57] |
My childhood didn't mean much, only raisin greener |
| [03:10.47] |
Raisin my fingers to critics raisin my head to the sky |
| [03:13.47] |
Big I did it multi(i) before I die (nigga) |
| [03:15.72] |
No lie, just know I chose my own fate |
| [03:18.77] |
I drove by the fork in the road and went straight. |
| [03:21.11] |
See I'm a poet to some, a regular modern day Shakespeare |
| [03:24.08] |
Jesus Christ the King of these Latter Day Saints here |
| [03:26.86] |
To shatter the picture in which of that as they paint me |
| [03:29.77] |
as a mother of hate, Satan and scatter-brained atheist |
| [03:32.67] |
But that ain't the case, see it's a matter of taste |
| [03:35.16] |
We as a people decide if Shady's as bad as they say he is |
| [03:38.21] |
Or is he the ladder, a gateway to escape? |
| [03:40.26] |
Media scapegoat, they can be mad at today |
| [03:43.66] |
See it's as easy as cake, simple as whistling Dixie |
| [03:46.61] |
while I'm wavin the pistol at sixty Christians against me |
| [03:49.67] |
Go to war with the Mormons, take a bath with the Catholics |
| [03:52.11] |
in holy water no wonder they try to hold me under longer |
| [03:54.72] |
I'm a motherfuckin spiteful, delightful eyeful |
| [03:57.78] |
The new Ice Cube, motherfuckers hate to like you |
| [04:00.61] |
What did I do? (huh) I'm just a kid from the gutter |
| [04:03.32] |
makin this butter off these bloodsuckers, cause I'm a muh'fuckin |
| [04:06.18] |
