(Verse 1: Evidence) I set it off in the sunny distance, no days existed My patience led the way until the greatest love listened to me I used to play the witness, wait in the trenches It's like the 6th man, sits on different benches It's hard squeezing life in a sentence And if I do, roll carpet with the red tint My entrance is what's between When I exit, it's Evidence left on the scene Alchemist cut the record down to the bone And with a record like this I take the world by storm Sky blessed, the land of the brave Understand where I stand, my hand is made From BR Double-O KLYN, the planet Family landed, managed to raise the man that I became Panic on my first campaign But when the words fell to place, I was certain to reign I hit the purple, then step in the circle and start flexin' Weatherman invented, now storms change directions Portions of my proceeds is feeding my homies now I always shared pretty good for an only child I was the baby boy, I could do no wrong Now the role's reversed, I'm putting people on They on welfare, you got healthcare They used to have their priorities elsewhere I took rims and tires and traded them For a ticket to an island, that's where I wrote this rhyming Where I first saw my vision Driven by a better living, a place to raise kids in So I think like I rule the world On the brink of something bigger, building schools For boys and girls The thought of home gets me out of my bed I said you got the tools? Get them shits up out of the shed. C'mon!
(Verse 2: Raekwon) I'm like the indispit of rhyming The Jack Dempsey emcee All my shit customed out [?] eventually Money is made, fly blades A woman with brains, will help a black nigga reign My lifestyle's a prowler A rich loaner, owner Used to pump at coffees shops Had my bitch who sell with me rolling up Fly ass and still classy Asking questions like "Why you wait on that glass? Why would you splash me? " Yo, it's only nigga shit I'm a teach you like how I was taught too Hold the phone, Ward 2 Seeing all kinds of grey fossils Colossal juice, pick the house, act fly I got you. No need to walk backwards Fuck with the taxes I speak credibility, the story to masses Yo, a diplomatic winner, Nik boots A scully good denim jean on and one rental
(Verse 3: Rass Kass) They say you only live once, I disagree You only live twice: your life enable your seed So I lead on whacks and feed em the deeds So when I die they got a foundation on my publishing B Plus the words that I speak, here's my family jewels It ain't all blood diamonds, but like experienced fools And I be rhyming cool, but my philosophy's deep Like a Dear John letter, so read em and weep And the wolf smells blood: you can feed em to me But I'm a Lycan underworld, you can meet in the street Draw heat, but what happened to peace? He got a Dirty Sanchez, like what happened to Screech Jesus, diarrhea's - I mean holy shit Christ on a cracker, that's just how we spit Communion: had the wine, make the sign of the cross And I will live in the past, chalk it up as a loss Went from "please listen to my demo! " To stretch limo To the penn in a cell watching Eminem on Jimmy Kimmel But I can't go out like Timbo slice Like Geena Korrano, a cyborg determinate Mano a mano, still Ronald McDonald Over one billion served But it's up to me to get what I deserve So I handle my biz and hustle harder than the norm The early bird gets the worm, but the hawk gets the bird...
