paroles de chanson Born Into the 90's - R. Kelly feat. Public Announcement

Man, what does it take for a brotha to make it around here nowadays?

Stop the presses, let me introduce the newcomer
That′s guaranteed to leave you speechless
Peep this, way back in the days
When I was waiting for my turn to get on stage and get paid
I've done a lot of high school shows and turned crowds out
Fellas yellin′, "Ho!" while the ladies scream my name out
I'll tell you that it wasn't enough, ′cause
Kickin′ it with my music every day was my first love
And as the time went on like the break of dawn
I got strong and now my word is bond
Some didn't think I had it in me
And when I said I wanted to become a star, they laughed at me
Well, the summer is here, and here I am, see
Kickin′ the funky track because I'm born into the ′90s

In the '90s (make it feel good, come on, make it feel good, yeah)
He must be a star, he must be a star (I′m born into the '90s)
In the '90s (make it feel good, come on, yeah, make it feel good)
He must be a star (wait a minute, wait a minute, yeah, that was funky)
He must be a star (let me get a little bit of this second verse)

I took my tape door to door, trying to get a contract
But they be like, "Man, we ain′t tryna hear that"
Boy, I tell ya it ain′t easy being cheesy
When you're dealing with the industry, you get faded, G
Unless you know somebody that knows somebody that knows somebody
Him or her that knows somebody
And then they want front like straight
"Oh, you know my cousin from A&R, Santa Fe?"
Well, I be like, "Yeah", and they be like "Swell
Can we have all your publishing?", and I say, "Go to hell"
I′m not selling myself to be sold out
So I just hold out until I get the right clout
Some spreading rumors saying R. Kelly's trippin′
But I'm not, I′m vacationing in the '90s

In the '90s (make it feel good, come on, make it feel good)
He must be a star, he must be a star (I′m born into the ′90s)
In the '90s (make it feel good, come on, yeah, make it feel good)
He must be a star (make it feel good)
He must be a star (anybody know what time it is?)

Yo, I feel it′s time to get mine, rise and shine
Instead of falling to the back of the line
So, fee fi fo fum, here I come to get some
While others bite their tongue
In and out of contracts with scum buckets
Makes me almost wanna say ... (blah blah blah)
But the R. is cool and will remain the same
As I collect my fame and fear no pain
Yeah, it couldn't have happened at a better time
A nice beat, strong sample, and a funky rhyme
And ever since I hooked up with the Midwest
I′ve been proper, poppin' like Orville Redenbacher in the ′90s
This track goes out to the public
Like Bartles & Jaymes would say, "Thanks for your support"
In the '90s

In the '90s (make it feel good, come on, make it feel good)
He must be a star, he must be a star (I′m born into the ′90s)
In the '90s (make it feel good, come on, yeah, make it feel good)
He must be a star (make it feel good)
He must be a star
