paroles de chanson Birth - Benefit Tanaka

January '02 I arrived
A goat came outta human, and yes, my momma did survive
Think I remember, all the nurses were surprised
"This kid barely a second old but he crying like he 5
There's a melody in his voice
A remedy in his choice
Of cadence and his toys
Will prolly bore his boys
'Cause it's then his pen
And then his voice
And then a man diary
Where he'll write about xan
And percs, and bliss
And girls, and this and that
And tits and tats"
Yeah I know, that's where they got it wrong
Guess it's the Hip-Hop cliché when niggas their song
But I said, "No! When I write, I'm finna get in my zone
I'm gonna write for the people, I'm gonna write about life
I'm gonna find me my equal, I'm gonna find me a wife
I'm gonna marry a lady who's gonna give me a baby
I'm gonna be like the greats, I'm gonna be like JAY-Z
Cole, like Em, like Tip, like Kanye
Wayne and Andre
Kendrick, Nasty C or Nasty Nas
The Bigs, the Pacs
And Twista, Busta Rhymes, I'm finna speed it up sometimes
And keep my name like Warren G
Sing too like Lauryn Hill or Nate Dogg
Really cool like Snoop Dogg
As lyrical as Rapsody
I'm gonna make a big CD
And make my City proud!"

So that's around the time the Doc snipped my umbilical cord
That's around the time the only thing I could afford
Was to cry for my mother's milk and hold
That much was true still, till I was like 2 years old
And by the time I was 4, 6am I was trembling in the cold
A whole preschooler
Ready to rule 'em
The one kid make the job easier for the mistress
The one kid make the job easier for the cleaner of the mattress
Well mature for my age
I was sure, they too was sure, I was a sage
They said, "This kid's a whiz
There's not much biz
We can teach him here with that knowledge and charisma
Do you hear me Benefit's mom?"
She said, "Ayt, ayt, on to the first grade then!"
Let me paint a picture for you my fellow brethren
From these early stages so please pay attention
The story begins, way back, way back before I had acquired a reputation

Back in the day way before I acquired a reputation
Back in the day way before I acquired a reputation
Back in the day way before I, back in the day way before I
Back in the day way before I acquired a reputation
Back in the day way before I acquired a reputation
