Jin - I Quit lyrics
rate meI was out on the street just tryin to survive.
(Jin)
Man I was just tryin to eat.
Is this what happens?
Ya'll Ima do this in one take
If I gotta do it again. It jus wasnt meant to be.
Uh Yeah. Yo Golden Child I owe you big time for this joint yo
Pass my words, people feel me
I sit up nights let the beat loop
contemplate what to write
think you got me figured out
but you’ll never know what its like
To live my life the attempts to live up to hype
of being the nicest Asian to ever lift the mic
If I bite the dust while I'm writin this song.
then I might just end right where I belong
amongst legends
Thats how ya'll should remember me
Gone but forever existin in a memory
So I never ask for applause
If all goes well I leave this due to a natural cause
Picture me with my grandkids 60 years old
Watching BET footage from 40 years ago, Like
your grandfather he used to be a beast
when it came time to battle aint nobody want a piece
The way i tell the story they amazed i'm older
tellin me grandpa your glory days is over
flashback to the present moment
where the real battle just gettin started
and i'm my own opponent
Ready to call it quits
But getting a busy tone
I might stop by radio and pull a bizzy bone
see my whole life changed in the last four years
alot of laughter but definitely not without tears
I watched the Asian rap community grow
first there was none.
now there a few cats that nobody knows
I suppose they label me the one that was chosen
to open doors for tthose that was normally closed
who oughta get props I composed a list
n no particular order yo it goes like this
YungMAC the protégé LS is a beast
lyrically Snacky Chan Thai & FAReast
Liv n proof Shogun K Grey I’m wit ya
we gota open our eyes and see the bigger picture
Jargon INVAZN On Fire get props REIGN ERA
Mountain Brothers holla at me Chops!
If I didn’t mention ya name don’t take it as a diss
you got my support if you takin it serious
sometimes my efforts seem unappreciated
I know I ain’t shit!! but hey at least I made it
this far for yall that didn’t wish me success
heres my biggest flaw I still wish yall the best
and thru it all I kept a level head listened
to God and ignored what the devil said
I can’t leave rap alone the game needs me
hard to let go cause none of this came easy
how many times do I gotta prove myself!?
do I really gotta battle EM and Lose Myself!??
106 The Fight Klub Smack DVD
a classic CD well at least it was to me
what else can you do to me
I went to war with the radio station on behalf of my community
bout to retire pull a Hova I quit
no more its over for Jin Im tired that’s it.
