lyrics
That moment, I couldn’t match what it feels like. Imagine, It’s just like magic… the real type. I had never felt the difference yet. Stuck, eyes glued to the television. Set to channel 30. Couldn’t understand a word he said but it all made perfect sense, beyond language. Surely, it was a sign. Who knows? I may be crazy. Amazing! Simple and plain. His name was Jay-Z. “Hard Knock Life”. I let it play to the end. Head nodding to the beat just taking it in and when the song was over I sat back like “Yeah, that right there (is what I’m gonna be)” Hip Hop. I became obsessed with it. Listening, watching, speaking it, I even dressed in it. In school the rest did it… well, at least a couple of friends but to me it was more than just one of those fucking trends. Picked up the pencil, started scribbling rhymes. Putting these words together just a little bit at a time. Figuring out how to make each syllable fit in a line. Imitated some of the greatest when they were still in they’re prime. No time to study for the test. “Fuck that, I got some dope rhymes and buddies to impress”. So I showed them my lyrics like “Yo, that’s half the battle” but before they got to half, they were already laughing at ‘em. After that I was crushed. It was hard to believe. I’ve never been the type to wear my heart on my sleeve so I just sucked it up. How was I supposed to take that? “You ain’t this, you ain’t that” Basically, “You ain’t black”. But moving on… It could have ended there but I felt I had to prove them wrong. That little dream was this close to falling apart but I just took what was left and kept it all in the dark. Spent the next 10 years trying to master the craft. Saying “We’ll see who’s the last one to laugh, ‘cause I’m going to be so much more than what you losers are. A superstar (is what I’m gonna be)”
