Genesis

In order for a man to know where he's going, he must first know where he's been. Respecting his past, honoring his present, thus creating his future. Genesis

Genesis, oh genesis, ay
I know pain and I know pleasure
High and low and everything in-between
And through the madness of my life for whatever
My music's always been there for me
I'm the one they talk about
My ego, my attitude
Sage, why they gotta be so nasty?
Why they gotta be so rude?
They don't know about my life
They don't know what I've been through
But if you don't know, want to know
Then let me show you

Welcome to my genesis, back to where I started from
How I became the man that I've become
This is my genesis, back to where I started from
Take it right back to the top 'cause I ain't done (my genesis)

When I was rolling 'round in my hood (genesis)
Ay, young and up to no good (genesis)
Streets was calling my name (genesis)
And then that music came and saved my life, my life
Oh, my inspiration, my muse
Music made it all right, all right
Hey, who are you that I can't lose

Welcome to my genesis, back to where I started from
How I became the man that I've become (oh)
This is my genesis, back to where I started from
Take it right back to the top, take it right back to the top, oh
My genesis, back to where I started from
How I came up, how I got my name up
How I blew this game up
My genesis, back to where I started from
Take it right back to the top 'cause I ain't done now (genesis)
