Confession
(confession)
I
used
to
think
I'd
be
in
the
NBA,
(True
story)
Stopped
hoopin'
when
I
got
cut
by
coach
Putin
Started
thinkin'
I'd
be
the
next
Michael
Jordan,
'Cuz
he
got
cut,
too
And
what
I
was
sportin'
Was
ain't
the
weights
in
jump
souls,
Extra
creatine,
snortin'
protein
powder,
open,
Paraphernalia
for
my
lunch
box,
Made
my
jump
shot,
go
A
little
harder
than
the
rest
of
'em,
No
suicide
doors,
but
suicide
drills,
I
was
the
best
at
them
No
one
told
me
I
was
short
and
white,
I
thought
I
had
a
black
man's
swag
like
I
was
Donomite,
You
don't
believe
I'm
gonna
make
it,
Wrong,
I'mma
'bout
to
show
you,
right
While
all
of
the
kids
was
figure-skatin'
on
boards,
And
ridin'
roller-bikes
I
was
so
focused
in
discipline,
Not
carin'
'bout
fittin'
in,
Not
carin'
what
anyone
thought,
'cuz
my
hard
work
would
soon
pay
off
Consumed
with
thoughts
of
jumpin'
higher,
Bein'
flyer
than
the
promo
piece,
My
hoop
dreams
were
deflated
by
reality,
I'd
soon
believe
What's
that?
Just
'cuz
it
failed
doesn't
mean
it
didn't
work
What's
that?
Just
'cuz
it
failed
doesn't
mean
it
didn't
Sun
up,
sun
down,
Run
up,
run
down,
Pushin'
myself
to
the
limit,
This
is
no
longer
fun,
now
While
all
the
kids
are
gettin'
shot,
And
gettin'
stabbed,
and
gettin'
robbed
and
gettin'
gunned
down,
I'm
on,
now
Confession,
I
used
to
think
I'd
be
a
superstar,
A
pop
icon,
a
rap
typhoon,
with
a
huge
platform
I
used
to
think
I'd
be
the
next
Tupac,
Screamin'
thug
life
to
the
cops,
Middle
fingers
to
the
tops,
While
I'm
takin'
five
shots,
But
still
deep
and
political,
With
a
message
and
a
purpose,
'Cuz
clearly
playin'
basketball,
Wasn't
mine
And
I'm
feelin'
more
certain,
Bein'
a
pro-athlete
wasn't
workin',
So,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
well,
I
just,
might
as
well
rhyme
So
I
studied
the
greats,
Wrote
everyday,
Even
learned
the
music
business
without
hopes
of
getting
more
pay
Paid
my
dues,
[?],
Got
the
blue-print
then
started
with
a
few,
Never
got
credit
but
still
that's
cool
Those
on
the
inside
know
it's
true,
When
the
plan
didn't
work,
well,
at
least
not
mine,
In
my
timeline,
I
should've
been
made
it,
But
I
learned
how
to
work,
[?],
More
cars
and
I
got
smarter,
A
bit
more
educated
Emotional
intelligence
group,
And
I'm
learnin'
just
how
to
[?]
[?],
Vote
with
people
that
on
there
like
me,
'Cuz
that
could
be
difficult,
too
Just
'cuz
it
failed
doesn't
mean
it
didn't
work,
'Cuz
I
would
go
beserk
if
I
had
to
still
work
9 to
5 for
some
jerk
And
I'm
not
sayin'
that
I've
found
my
full
purpose,
But
I'm
closer
than
I've
ever
been,
of
that
I'm
certain,
The
skills
that
I've
aquired
from,
Chasing
my
own
tail,
have,
Given
me
an
edge
despite
these
plans
having
failed
And
what
is
failure
anyway?
Huh,
I
wouldn't
be
who
I
am
today
I
was
so
focused
in
discipline,
Not
carin'
'bout
fittin'
in,
Not
carin'
what
anyone
thought,
'Cuz
my
hard
work
would
soon
pay
off
Consumed
with
thoughts
of
rhyming
harder,
Bein'
flyer
than
the
promo
piece,
My
rap
dreams
were
deflated
by
reality,
I'd
soon
believe
What's
that?
Just
'cuz
it
failed,
doesn't
mean
it
didn't
work
What's
that?
Just
'cuz
it
failed,
doesn't
mean
it
didn't
Sun
up,
sun
down,
Run
up,
run
down,
Pushin'
myself
to
the
limit,
This
is
no
longer
fun,
now
While
all
the
kids
are
gettin'
shot,
And
gettin'
stabbed,
And
gettin'
robbed,
and
gettin'
gunned
down,
I'm
on,
now
I'm
on,
now
