Influenced by (feat. Kurupt)

You know history
History is made from
Great accomplishments
And
Given inspiration
Ya hear me
TP Esco
Kurupt Young Gotti (Kurupt)
We gonna give you
An example
Of who inspired us
Ya hear me

Ever since I was a child
I was captivated
By Music I felt gravitated
It opened up the door
Allowed me to explore
So many other genres
Would've otherwise ignored
Have you ever been
Touched by a song or a verse
To the point where you can
Feel the pain and tell how bad it hurts
When the words emerge
Into a perfect verse
With emotion bursts man
The pen does work
Through their losses
Their stories their come ups
And their glory
And that passion
Makes it happen
Till it cultivates the brain
An creates that reaction (Now)
If we do not
Change our direction
Were likely to end up
Where were heading

When it comes to music (Music)
I love all kinds (I love all kinds)
Go through my catalog
Yeah you 'd be surprised
Okay then try me
Who's on your list
Or better yet
Tell me who's your top five
Well I'd only pick the ones
I'm influenced by

This an Open discussion
On melodies and percussion
How certain music reaches people
And some others it doesn't
But that's the beauty
I just you people evenly judge it
Because I put too much heart in this
For you to make an assumption
About my swag
My delivery or even my rhymes
I'm sure with even your favorite artist
If There is something to find
That we can hate on
But we don't so skate on by
Let me rewind and
Take it back to ninety-two to ninety-five
Man I always loved music
But it was that year I
Started to learn how to use it
And develop my mind
My Older brothers I looked up to
What they bumped in they ride
Dr. Dre
Snoop Dogg
Warren G and Sublime
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Nirvana the list goes on
But now I'm old enough
That I can make a list of my own
The music is a road map
Never leave it at home
Always keep it with me
Never know
How my days gonna go
Monday Jack Johnson
James Taylor keep it slow
Tuesday pick it up
With Tech Nine and some Bone
Wednesday throw it back
To anything Deathrow
Thursday through Sunday
You already know
That its something Westcoast
Kurupt and Roscoe (Young Gotti)
Dr. Dre & Snoop
That's a standard combo
Hopsin and Kendrick
They new to the show
And Of course
Makaveli in a league of his own

When it comes to music (Music)
I love all kinds (I love all kinds)

Okay then try me
