| [00:08.95] | （No doubt） uh, it took ten years, for me to pressure cook my fears |
| [00:12.39] | Now my front line rhymes moving up from the rear |
| [00:14.84] | My dream slash career appeared ever so clear |
| [00:17.28] | Now I'm able to touch, smell, see, speak, and hear |
| [00:19.84] | My fans cheer, my time is finally here |
| [00:22.15] | The past depart the present cause the future is near |
| [00:24.58] | Anticipation, magnified my motivation |
| [00:27.32] | Direct my energy to touch nations |
| [00:30.02] | Been entertaining since niggas was really banging |
| [00:32.28] | Dancning at the old folks parties, pancaking |
| [00:34.74] | I've been waiting for my time to shine |
| [00:36.61] | From Catholic school John Mid Junior High |
| [00:39.11] | From ??? to rocking at the Good Life |
| [00:41.32] | We paid the price to keep rhyming and rip shit on the mic |
| [00:44.45] | Yo, cause if you only knew what we been through, uh |
| [00:46.96] | The struggle and the pain to maintain and continue |
| [00:48.42] | |
| [00:49.83] | Great expectations, on our committee unified relation |
| [00:53.47] | We rebel our rhythm through tribulation |
| [00:55.87] | And treble and bass the situation with dedication |
| [00:59.38] | Yo, go get your ticket, your seats, snacks, and beverages |
| [01:02.14] | While we get wicked all in your brain's cracks and crevaces |
| [01:04.47] | Servicing bulletins to you critical puritans |
| [01:06.46] | Who be shouting in my vicinity doubting my capability |
| [01:09.35] | （Expect） no defeat, my whole fleet be scorching |
| [01:11.74] | Keep across your vision blurred from heat distortion |
| [01:14.31] | The proportions better take precaution |
| [01:16.57] | While we shake the portion fakes are lost in, never flossing |
| [01:19.90] | （The antidote for your mood） We sloppy dope and I'm hoping |
| [01:22.21] | What I wrote get you open like a Fallopian tube |
| [01:24.26] | In my crew we include brothers who worthy |
| [01:26.59] | Rebels and DJ's from LA, I'm from Shahee |
| [01:29.58] | From Jersey, ever thirsty for success |
| [01:31.89] | Plus never vexed, flipping for Allah cause he blessed us |
| [01:34.26] | With the talent, to make Jurassic your next guest |
| [01:36.72] | Rocking since the '84 Fresh Fest, yes |
| [01:38.97] | Great expectations, on our committee unified relation |
| [01:43.03] | We rebel our through rhythm tribulations |
| [01:45.98] | And treble and bass the situation with dedication |
| [01:48.93] | Great expectations, on our committee unified relation |
| [01:53.39] | We through rebel our tribulationsrhythm |
| [01:55.44] | And treble and bass the situation with dedication |
| [01:58.76] | Ayo my story starts in the NJ state |
| [02:01.09] | And gets deep like a movie Bruce and Demi make |
| [02:03.54] | I moved to the land of sand and ill earthquakes |
| [02:06.16] | I didn't know this was the place I'd get my piece of the cake |
| [02:08.80] | Or the piece of the pie, U-N-I-T-Y |
| [02:11.49] | Every Thursday night at the Life we kept it tight |
| [02:13.69] | That's right, that's where we dwelled and the rhythm rebelled |
| [02:16.02] | We a blast from the past like the shotgun shells |
| [02:18.34] | Not no mocho males （with raps about a beer |
| [02:20.92] | Our mission is to persevere） so haters can play the rear |
| [02:23.54] | We toured the stratesphere from here to London Square |
| [02:25.99] | You swear you're prepared to diss what we have here |
| [02:28.31] | Indeed time ticks as rapid rhymes rip |
| [02:30.95] | Earth and time split in time to find it's |
| [02:33.33] | Just another manic monday, and one day |
| [02:35.72] | We'll shine, too, so it's true, you hear my crew say |
| [02:38.59] | Great expectations, on our committee unified relation |
| [02:42.43] | We rebel our rhythm through tribulation |
| [02:45.38] | And treble and bass the situation with dedication |
| [02:48.33] | Great expectations, on our committee unified relation |
| [02:52.47] | We rebel our rhythm through tribulation |
| [02:55.31] | And treble and bass the situation with dedication |
| [02:57.25] | Yo, whether you love to hate it, if it's in or outdated |
| [03:00.63] | If I've been overrated or maybe your most favorite |
| [03:03.09] | You expect me still to write my verse on time |
| [03:05.55] | And I expect you not to front when you hear my rhyme |
| [03:08.04] | Don't expect me to smile cause it's in good taste |
| [03:10.55] | I know cats that's no mistake smiling in my face |
| [03:12.94] | And don't expect to try and guess if I'm mad or not |
| [03:15.37] | Or if I'm cold or hot, you would know if not |
| [03:17.78] | And don't expect me to come and just bite my tongue |
| [03:20.23] | It's kind of hard to forget what some brothers have done |
| [03:22.73] | But my mother always said you can forgive and forget |
| [03:25.15] | And expect that most promises won't be kept |
| [03:27.78] | I guess I gave credit where it wasn't deserved |
| [03:30.21] | To brothers must have preferred to not keep their word |
| [03:32.83] | The bigger the burden, the bigger the uncertain |
| [03:35.08] | |
| [03:35.87] | No explaination for my creation, expectationgreat |
| [00:08.95] | No doubt uh, it took ten years, for me to pressure cook my fears |
