4 Lyn - Shelltoes & Fatlaces lyrics
rate meYo,I came a long way (belive that!),but still know where I started from
And where this art is comin´from...
The masters of ceremony
Rule or cry! Do or die! For the microphone...
And I was able to speak but not able to hold a mic
Was able rhyme, not able to speak them lines right
But I waited for the day until the time was right
I wrote all night until then I kept it quiet (shhh)
There still too many talented MC´s unsigned
Too many untalented muthafuckers on my mind
I get angry when a rookie steps up
With words that don´t make sense
Tellin´me to get up...like this...
(You wanna battle? you wanna go against me?
I´m the best around as you can see..)
Oh,can´t you see that this is me??? (this is real!)
Oh,can´t you feel that this is real???
First,pay dues to the old school and
Respect the veterans or you will never be better
Than the average rapper; take a look...
Just because you can write doesn´t mean
That you can use a blakkbook (did you hear me?)
(But you love guitars...) - but I´m true to the game!
(What you do this for?)- yo, I do it for the fame!
(Yo,I got mo´cash than you!)-than give me all you can!
But if you´re broke,ask juvinille (you understand?)
I don´t roll a benz I got a v-dove.
And all you hiphops get all my love
Without you I wouldn´t be here (remember that?)
If not, check the song called "Alinaā€¯
I don´t want to disrespect
Don´t blame me if you miss respect
I just wanted to make one thing clear...(say what?)
My love for hiphop is the reason,why brasko´s still here
Traditional MC-metaphors...is what I use
And why I´m gettin´applause
It´s not about videos,bitches or cars
It´s about understanding,so keep your creditcard
Shhhhh...
Oh,can´t you see that this is me?
Namebelts, kangols, blockparties and all that
Oh,can´t you feel that this is real?
Spraycans, fatcaps, wholecars- FOREVER!
Oh,can´t you see that this is me?
Uprock,backflips, headspins and sixsteps
Uh, can´t you feel that this is real?
Shelltoes and our laces were fat!
