All Over Again
(专辑: The Lex Diamond Story - 2003)
"Yes, I
got you started, yes, I
got you started!" [Intro: Raekwon] Uh... yeah.. This is on some Can It Be/C.R.E.A.M. shit, right here, too Yeah, word up, take it there for these niggas, you know Word up? Yo.. uh-huh, reminisce, nigga Word up, nice sunny day, rainy day Preferable for you and yours, let's blow, yo [Raekwon] Who would of thought I
would of made it ya'll Ten years later, still in the
gid-game, the
Clan, we was one the
greatest We did platinum back in '93, we painted pictures you could see We was living who ya'll trying to be RZA had a
vision, instead of cookin coke in the
kitchen He told the
God, hit the
booth and start spittin At first it was a
dream to me, Ol' Earth buggin Put your gun down, screamin that the
streets is gon' be needin me I
did the
Knowledge to the
Wisdom that you spoke to me The
Wu become us, the
world enbraced us A
new day, a
new life for the
God Got a
hood thing, watchin "Ice Water" evolve Destined to build a
mountain niggaz is doubtin my work Black millionaire, check what I'm worth I
gotta thank y'all for takin in Lex, I
appreciate it I
apoligize for keepin y'all waitin [Interlude: sample (Raekwon)] "Yes I
got you started all over again" [x2] (Word up... let's go back... finish up) [Raekwon] Growing up, we've been through hard times Life on the
streets, just trying survive Plus my niggas got mouth's to feed We sold to crack fiends, coke, ice and money machines Shooting at cops, them maggots tried to stop our C.R.E.A.M But it won't stop, can't stop, my niggas locked down in a
box I
feel your pain, I
know you're trying to come home All that weak bullshit, I
had to leave it alone Heard my mom's crying at night, we rap on the
phone, I
love you Never meant to stress you out, do you wrong, yo I'm workin Then move you from a
block to a
home We came from nothing, seeing how the
world is so cold Some niggas coming out of churches selling devil their soul, yo My neighborhood is crime central, sort of like prisons and cops One on lock, instead of trying to defend you All that bullshit we've been through, time to draw the
line right here Got to stop now, time is the
issue [Interlude: sample (Raekwon)] "Yes I
got you started all over again" [x2] (One more jewel... one more... move... let's go, let's go) [Raekwon] It's time to rebuild, teach our seeds, that guns don't kill It's the
nigga behind the
trigger that will Society's ill, blacks support seeds for their mills Mentally brainwashed, time moves on, we stand still I
seen life through the
birth of my son, I
seen it all again A
soldier stuck in these streets, hoping it's war within Too late to fall now, I'm on now Niggas is born now, we doing good, we on tour now Elevate your prosperity, I'm seeing shit with clarity No longer on the
low, pa, I
couldn't handle thieves Too much to live for, I
just wanna poly and grow Stack ones and watch my little dun's blow [Outro: sample] "Yes I
got you started all over again" [x4]
