Nutty Professor 2 movie - I'm Gonna Crawl lyrics

rate me

Song by DMX f/ Dyme<br /><br>

Live and learn<br>

Life is a lesson<br>

And I'm gonna teach it<br>

<br>

First I'm gonna crawl, then I'm gonna walk<br>

Then I'm gonna stand, then I'm gonna talk<br>

But I gotta learn in order to teach<br>

Then I gotta burn in order to reach<br>

My niggaz<br>

<br>

Yo, I see what I see day by day<br>

Hoping that the Lord will pave my way (What!)<br>

Have I been forgotten? Have I forsaken?<br>

Or maybe I'm just wrong with the moves that I've been makin'<br>

Hatin' others cuz they hate me over envy<br>

They wanna send me, when we use to be friendly<br>

Think I started off on top with two platinum albums?<br>

Naw dog, I started off from the block<br>

I just did shit and did shit (Ugh!)<br>

Niggaz always knew I was down to hit shit so I stayed rich (What!)<br>

Played with shit but it wasn't a game; first time locked down (Ugh!)<br>

It wasn't the same, the whole fuckin' world, couldn't quite close the steel<br>

Niggaz get split for real, miss some good meal (Damn)<br>

Called nobody but don't nobody care<br>

They got my back against the walls<br>

Fuck it, I'm just here<br>

<br>

[1] - First I'm gonna crawl, then I'm gonna walk<br>

Then I'm gonna stand, then I'm gonna talk<br>

But I gotta learn in order to teach<br>

Then I gotta burn in order to reach<br>

<br>

First I'm gonna crawl, then I'm gonna walk<br>

Then I'm gonna stand, then I'm gonna talk<br>

But I gotta learn in order to teach<br>

Then I gotta burn in order to reach<br>

My niggaz<br>

<br>

Dog, it's like this: when the fog is tight thick, a nigga might flip<br>

And a nigga write quick, but I stay focus to what's important (What's that?)<br>

Supportin' my family, fucking with my dogs and record<br>

According to the man upstairs, we all got our own problems<br>

So you- stop worrying about bail (Aight)<br>

Learned a long time ago, look away and niggaz will leave you<br>

I hear no, speak no, see no evil<br>

All I can do is teach you what I know, how I flow<br>

how I get down, where I go (What!)<br>

Maybe what I been through or send you somewhere I've been (Where?)<br>

Dreams go out the window, I love my people, all of my people (Ugh)<br>

And God gonna keep me callin' my people (Ugh)<br>

You gots to live life to the fullest<br>

Ain't always about the size of the gun so time is the bullet<br>

<br>

[Repeat 1]<br>

<br>

Everyday we live and learn, take it step-by-step<br>

We create our own path until there's no life left<br>

I hold my death (Ugh) all for as long as I can<br>

Know my man (What!) plottin' with a chrome in his hand<br>

Holdin' me back, niggaz gettin' shady over money<br>

MY NIGGA! Pull out the 380 over money (Damn)<br>

Really over money, can't do without it<br>

I got other shit to deal with, I'm like forget about it<br>

It's when I don't know with much tease that comes first<br>

because it comes with the thirst of a nigga that's had it the worst<br>

It's like a curse that should be lifted<br>

He was there when he lifted, got a call and he shifted<br>

Once he felt that he was gifted<br>

Got to kick it the hardest and I hope you got it<br>

It was there from the start, I just hope you spot it<br>

Cuz it's my blood on paper, my soul on paper<br>

It's worse to live by will leave a hole in the paper<br>

<br>

[Repeat 1]<br>
