My Name Is

(альбом: Desperado - 2019)

Yeah, I feel I've been doing this for a lifetime
But y'all still don't know my name
But you gon' learn today

It all started back in 1994 boy
A young kid growing up in a war boy
Staring death in the eye toe to toe boy
Ducking bullets with my face to the floor boy
I done been to the lowest you can go boy
I lost everything in life but my soul boy
That's why I'll never ever rap like a dope boy
Survived killers with AK's and grenades in a rage at my door boy
I started rapping because the pain was deep
And I done seen too much bloodshed to sleep
So I'm geeked to the peak with no words to speak
And all I feel is defeat while I grind my teeth like
Somebody gotta bleed on somebody's beat
Somebody might as well be me, be me
I took a number like I'm meant for the top
I'm ready to drop this spot so hot they can't stop me
Inevitable that when you pop you got a world of friends
Never thinking about the time that you be putting in
Now the world and everybody is wonder where you been
But the truth is they just ain't been listening

I'm a little bit of Pac, a little bit of Bone
A little bit of David in the Psalms writing songs
A little Outkast, Johnny Cash and some Pastor
Call it Vice Versa, reverse the past
My music is therapy to poison the pain
And every song like a piece of me, ain't looking for fame
I ain't never thought about selling my soul for this game
But I'm gonna spit so hard that it knows name is

Crucifix, my name, my name is, my name is
Crucifix, my name, my name is, my name is
Crucifix, my name, my name is, my name is
A daily reminder the pain that's inside of me keeps on dividing me 'til I nail it to the Crucifix

I started for the love of the music because it helped me
I was born with struggle in my blood and I know it's out to kill me
Nineteen with a dream ain't gon' back down
Writing raps on the toilet of a crack house
Spitting verses at the cops while they pat down
Running by the moment like I'm living in the freestyle
It's like I'm shooting every word that's said
It's like I'm aiming at the stars but inside I'm dead
It's like I'm hanging onto nothing but the beats I'm fed
I'm conversating with the roaches that share my bed
I got nothing in this life but a mountain
With people thinking that I'll never make it so they're doubting
I've given so much that I been stopped counting
I sold my only car just to print my first album, ahh
Now that's a gamble when no one cares
I put it all out on the table homie I ain't scared
People talking about, "This dude came from where?"
It's been decade since I dropped My Life's Prayer

I'm like a little bit of Biggie, and a little bit of Nas
A little Lynyrd Skynrd with a little Goodie Mob
A little Youngbloodz in the mud, smoking bud
"If you don't give a damn, we don't give a fuck!"
My music is therapy to poison the pain
And every song is like a piece of me, ain't looking for fame
I ain't never thought about selling my soul for this game
But I'm gonna spit so hard that it knows name is

Crucifix, my name, my name is, my name is
Crucifix, my name, my name is, my name is
Crucifix, my name, my name is, my name is
A daily reminder the pain that's inside of me keeps on dividing me 'til I nail it to the Crucifix

I take that X, put if off, put it off
I take that X, put if off, put it off
I take that X, put if off, put it off
I take that X, put if off, put it off

Crucifix, my name, my name is, my name is
Crucifix, my name, my name is, my name is
Crucifix, my name, my name is, my name is
A daily reminder the pain that's inside of me keeps on dividing me 'til I nail it to the Crucifix
