Lyric of the day:
It's been five long years since we started this
Group that was targeted to people so annoyed with fast
And them wannabee jiggas and they gorgeous past
Who ask me if I've changed, fuck man of course I have
'Cause I got more records to sell, more dollars to clock
I hate it but that's how it's gotta be
I got more stories to tell, more people to watch
And ten times more people watchin' me
So fuck the masquerade, just let me have a say
I'll still be spittin' regardless of the accolades
Ya'll can take back the mics in the Source
Take back the props from Pete Rock, Quest and them boys
Take back the night we did speed at 4 in the mornin'
And even take back the day I met 9th in the dorm
Ya'll can rewrite the history to settle the score
And I'd still be writin' wizardry like never before
'Cause I broke down this year, almost lost my clarity
Felt weak at times, needed God to carry me
Like when I found success, but lost my family
In the process, I will not let you bastards handle me
Lookin' for some guidance, so I figured
I'd pray to God, and he said Tigga-
-Lo, I ain't let you run it back this far
Just so you could go and fumble on the one jigga...
-Phonte from Little Brother, "Nobody Like Me"
