《The Fall And Rise Of Elliot Brown》歌词

[00:00:00] I mean I got years man I go back actually

[00:00:02] I just got back to these streets man this is home to me though

[00:00:05] You mean I was goin' for a while ten years to be exact

[00:00:07] I lost my lights in the streets you know but for these streets

[00:00:10] Me and my dude we got down and dirty for it man

[00:00:12] We did every thang we took know what I mean to eat

[00:00:14] That's what it's about when I was comin' up in the 80's

[00:00:16] Everybody tried to eat man and my way livin' to eat man

[00:00:18] I gurped in theses streets I grind

[00:00:19] Walked to these streets here nah'mean "

[00:00:21] Got to get this bread got to get this dough

[00:00:22] Got to get these chips got to get these whips

[00:00:24] And fits and got to get real mean got to get real clean

[00:00:26] Got to get these fiends a fixin'

[00:00:28] On a mission to get rich real quick use wit' no intermission

[00:00:31] Got to live big gettin' the tip on them big

[00:00:32] So spendin' spendin' any witness get hit quick

[00:00:34] This lick isn't never no kid shit

[00:00:36] Not a picnic flip biscuit get rich that's it

[00:00:37] Big bills just Ben's no frills just Benz's

[00:00:39] Spendin' endless spendin' sprees

[00:00:39] Limitless build it up to the millions

[00:00:40] Then I can have things like a new fly ring and a new fly fling

[00:00:43] I can do Irene Darlene Charlene and Francine even get

[00:00:45] Inside Pam's jeans as clean as you ever did see on the scene

[00:00:47] Doin' real big things as I pimp this simple system

[00:00:49] Then I hear sirens and I see high beams

[00:00:50] Now I am flyin' but they're behind me

[00:00:52] Now I'm on one knee and the dope's on me

[00:00:54] Now my hope's gone see and I lost my freedom

[00:00:55] Locked up see ya

[00:01:06] He was a young lad off of happiness and smiles

[00:01:09] He was sprung bad wanted all the trendy classy

[00:01:11] Number one fads in a very short time

[00:01:13] Learned the rules of combat

[00:01:15] Learned who was a punk and who would have swung back

[00:01:18] How to take from the weak especially when hungry

[00:01:20] While mama's workin' two jobs and daddy's gone away

[00:01:22] And police be throwin' you vibes even at a young age

[00:01:25] And it was like he was livin' in a cage

[00:01:27] From the outside world 'cause he just couldn't relate

[00:01:31] And then life really began and trifeness

[00:01:32] Was a given when he graduated

[00:01:52] The fall

[00:01:57] So he hustled doin' whatever just to get the bread and mustard

[00:02:01] Stacked high grew wit' some niggaz that he trusted

[00:02:04] He shouldn't have though 'cause them same niggaz got him busted

[00:02:06] And 'bout the same time he 'bout to get sent up

[00:02:08] His ex-girl is like "I'm pregnant baby daddy plus it's twins"

[00:02:11] And when he goes to jail he has company

[00:02:13] In the form of fifty percent of the cats he grew up with

[00:02:16] Gets out goes back just like a puppet

[00:02:18] Caught in a genocidal death trap of the government

[00:02:21] The don't rehabilitate they just be lovin' it

[00:02:23] When niggaz is in the pen 'cause that's big money makin' to them

[00:02:43] The rise

[00:02:48] For some time he sat and pondered

[00:02:50] Trapped in a cell filled with criminals and convicts

[00:02:52] Time had arrived to confront the real conflict

[00:02:55] Lookin' within not without he got honest

[00:02:57] Started to read and acquire that self knowledge

[00:03:00] Learned he was royalty and didn't come from garbage

[00:03:02] How to embrace struggle and learn from his problems

[00:03:04] True wealth is health family and a higher consciousness

[00:03:07] Learned that most of what he was taught was nonsense

[00:03:10] Read up on economics and how to start a business

[00:03:12] Self determination and dedication empowered him

[00:03:14] Somethin' inside him told him only God could stop him

[00:03:17] Now he's out livin' what others said was impossible

[00:03:19] Thought he would be another victim of ghetto obstacles

[00:03:22] Through the concrete a rosebud started to blossom

[00:03:24] Remember change is really all that remains constant yeah
