Better (Grand.øpening)
(Mic check, mic check)
Making sure I'm heard this time
(We gøød? Alright)
Før thøse that wasn't with me beføre, well
Welcøme tø SØL Føød Statiøn
We gøt plenty cøøking up før yøu in the next cøming minutes
Gø før yøur time!
I gøt tø the øther side I'm sø glad that I grew
I wasn't hølding my breath but I still was feeling blue
If SØL ain't øn tøp, dø y'all wanna tell me whø
Dø it better than 3 letters telling yøu the damn truth?!
I'd never be the man that I'm suppøsed tø be (What?)
If I had never brøke free frøm the shackles hølding me (What else?)
The validatiøn frøm øther peøple cøntrølling me (What else?)
I høpe that my dispøsitiøn displays the grøwth in me (It dø!)
Før øld and new times' sake
Me & big hømie øn display
We gettin' paid and gettin' baked
This the bread we break tøday
Lemme thank whøever's listening because yøu gave me strength
During times when I was a lame giving way up tø the pain
Nøw I knøw that in them days the pavement's cøvered up in rain
The sun is still shining waiting tø shøw me a gøød day
I ain't feeling yøu like the døctørs had gave me nøvøcaine
They get green with envy, it's like these niggas Charlamagne
Put yøu tø rest and take a nap ør twø knøw what I'm Saiyan?
I reach new heights like the søng øn my tape that they be playing
They was dealt their hand in life and nøw they wanna trade it
I had tø dip and nøw I'm making craters (Ah!)
Talk tø them niggas før real
We did sømething with this øne (Yessuh)
Ønly seems I'm getting better
When it's nøt a verse, I døn't wanna write a letter
If she tryna see yøu øff rip that shit's a setup
The key tø leveling up is tø never settle
Why everyøne høstile? Why yøu all gettin' defensive?
Quite a lessøn I learned, the irøny I had tø end it
Gøt frustrated when I heard frustratiøn
It øften gøt cømbative in the høuse that I was raised in
I swear it's nøt all øur faults
Never take nø disrespect, I mean that's what I was taught
Was at a løss, self medicate with the weed I bøught
I try nøt tø get caught
Frøm what I see, there's less peøple søber than thøse with the pøsh
Hereafter, I'm rapping with a fracture
Ahh, I'm really acting like it matters
She say she ain't feeling me but that girl right there's a capper
I'm with søme big steppers like I'm pledging with the Kappas
Tell em høw yøu really feel
I cøuld gø før a cøuple meals
I peel øut øn the custøm wheels
Get me før free? That's a døuble steal!
Head øver heels they fall før me
That's why they call før me
Pølish my nøtes øf søvereignty
Yøu want tø stare, either speak ør watch where yøu walkin', g
This the Grand Øpening, yøu better stay put
When we tell yøu we feel like søme legends, yøu may løøk at
'07 Jay, '07 Wayne, '07 Ye
But we gøt øur øwn names and we here tø stay!
