Suddenly

I swear this famous shit just happened overnight

For sho’ these hoes was so uptight but now they so polite

All I see is fake love, smiles, and overbites

But I’m pimpin’ nigga, Dolemite

I remember when I was like ten, maybe nine

Ricky had a deuce-deuce two shotti pumps with a baby nine

Busta had the rhymes, Puffy had the shine

Bone thugs had more thugs but that was the shit that made me rhyme

Wassup, what’s on your mind? Hol’ up, I’m feeling fine

Locs got me blind, thuggin’ like I’m Eazy-E up in his prime

Another young nigga with a attitude

I guess that’s why the practice kept me after school

Roaches on the wall, roaches on the dresser

Everybody had roaches but our roaches ain’t respect us

On the park bench playing checkers, sipping nectar

Girbaud jeans with hologram straps and reflectors

We had cookouts and dirt bikes and dice games and fist fights

And French fries and shootouts like one cig with two rounds

And click left two down, that’s four kids but one lived

Left three dead, but one split, that one snitch

That’s everyday shit, shit we used to that

Add it up, do the math with your stupid ass

Don’t view me as no conscious cat, this ain’t no conscious rap

Fuck the conscious crap, my mac’ll push your conscious back

I do this for my culture, penny, nickels in the sofa

Mommy watching Oprah, daddy in the kitchen whipping soda

Cook, connect, then Sosa, Spanish chick by Ola hit it in the chocha

With the Testarossa, hit Daytona, fuck the law, we soldiers

I’m bout it bout it, nigga ain’t shit sweet about me

The baddest bitches on the block be even speakin’ bout me

I’m so thuggish ruggish bringin’ ruckus knuckin’ if you buckin’

Young and thuggin’, buggin’ showing out in public, but you love it

I only got one vision, that’s for kids in every color, religion

That listen, that you gotta beat the system, continue to fuck up the prison

They try to blind our vision, but we all got children and siblings

You my brother, you my kin, fuck the color of your skin

Back once again, chilling in the back of the ‘Lac with a pass or the gin

Finna ask can I pass to her friend, then a nigga smash, I’ll be damned if I ask her again

Gold slabs on the ‘Lac when I spin, then it’s back to the back of the Benz, lean back in the back with the Henn

And a crap when I tap that that then attack, never tax, never that that, max on the ends, spend ends

I remember way back when, a mothafucka used to have to borrow cash from my friends, friends

Just to put a snack up in the fridge, when I’m on, I swear to God I’ll pay you back

Now the kids all look up to me, them bitches wanna fuck with me

My idols say what’s up to me, from ug-a-ly to comfortably

Suddenly

It all changed man

It was just like yesterday

Times was so ugly

And now I’m comfortable

I just only can thank God

Suddenly

Everything changed before my eyes

By my surprise
