00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,100
I got something I wanna tell you
2
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,800
I got something I wanna tell you
3
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:22,350
Yeah
4
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,800
Dust off the old notebook where a younger
Jermaine Lamarr wrote hooks
5
00:00:25,900 --> 00:00:29,200
To get a glimpse of what his hopes looked
like back in his younger years
6
00:00:29,300 --> 00:00:32,400
And found a page stained with what
seems to be a hundred tears
7
00:00:32,500 --> 00:00:34,800
As the smeared words spoke
of his blunted fears
8
00:00:34,900 --> 00:00:36,800
Tellin' him, "Persevere through it all
9
00:00:36,900 --> 00:00:38,900
Go hard, like Medusa
in front of mirrors
10
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,600
To reach the top," so unaware
that the troublе's there
11
00:00:41,700 --> 00:00:44,400
We'rе nothing more than a worser
version of troubles, where
12
00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:47,300
He sat when he wrote, he's
performin' hocus-pocus
13
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,200
With empty pocket, focus over some
dope lil' beat he made his self
14
00:00:50,300 --> 00:00:51,800
All the pain in his cadence felt
15
00:00:51,900 --> 00:00:55,000
And though his heart was made of
felt, his exterior hardened
16
00:00:55,100 --> 00:00:57,800
To present a demeanor in which
this period taught him
17
00:00:57,900 --> 00:01:01,200
Was the best for survival, to deflect
the most aggressive of rivals
18
00:01:01,300 --> 00:01:04,900
A testament to the lessons I follow,
seen the death of bravado
19
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,800
The second weapons hit his
chest with a hollow
20
00:01:06,900 --> 00:01:09,500
Pride is a bitter pill indeed,
but it's best if you swallow
21
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,100
If not, your homies gon' pay
respect with a bottle
22
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,100
Poured out onto the flesh
of this Mother Earth
23
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,000
While liquor slithers like a
serpent across the mud and dirt
to go rest in a pothole
24
00:01:18,100 --> 00:01:20,800
Money comin' soon, back then,
was obsessed with the motto
25
00:01:20,900 --> 00:01:23,100
Me and my dogs was like the Musketeers
26
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,700
Through the years, we stayed
connected, to this day,
we still steppin' legato
27
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,400
Subconscious detectin' these niggas,
think I'm lesser for my complexion
28
00:01:29,500 --> 00:01:31,900
Before I'm done, they all gon'
respect the mulatto (Hey)
29
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:38,300
Yeah, I said they all gon' respect
the mulatto (Oh, I)
30
00:01:40,300 --> 00:01:43,100
I got something I wanna tell you
31
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:49,300
Dreams can come true,
you'll get yours too
32
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,500
But it won't save (Yeah)
33
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:55,000
I got something I wan' tell you (I
got something I wanna tell you)
34
00:01:55,100 --> 00:02:00,400
Dreams can come true (Oh-oh),
you'll get yours too
35
00:02:00,500 --> 00:02:02,900
But it won't save
36
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,000
Me and you
37
00:02:04,100 --> 00:02:07,000
Your mama and your cousin too
38
00:02:07,100 --> 00:02:10,100
Rolling through the Ville
on Vogues (Vogues)
39
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,000
Comin' up, slamming Cadillac
doors (Yeah)
40
00:02:13,100 --> 00:02:15,400
Me and you (Hey)
41
00:02:15,500 --> 00:02:18,500
Your mama and your cousin too
42
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,200
Rolling through the Ville
on Vogues (Vogues)
43
00:02:21,300 --> 00:02:25,200
Comin' up, slamming Cadillac
doors (Comin', comin' up)
44
00:02:25,300 --> 00:02:27,100
My darkest truths be hard
to say to friends
45
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,600
Fuck it, pass the bottle, we're
swallowing hopes that
can wash away the sins
46
00:02:30,700 --> 00:02:33,200
Grew up amongst the lost and
wasn't taught a way to win
47
00:02:33,300 --> 00:02:36,100
On days I think of James, my hardened
heart, it breaks again
48
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,800
He caught the fade but pussy niggas
caught him later, then
49
00:02:38,900 --> 00:02:41,600
Medics performed a CPR, and
hauled away his limbs
50
00:02:41,700 --> 00:02:44,400
It always haunted me inside my
thoughts and made 'em grim
51
00:02:44,500 --> 00:02:46,500
His father knew my father
way back when
52
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,600
Army buddies that used to party hard
53
00:02:48,700 --> 00:02:52,900
Overseas, but through the alcohol,
the weed and plus the hardy-
har's, they made him kin
54
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,600
Who knew their future kids would
have to find a way to swim
55
00:02:55,700 --> 00:02:58,400
In the wild, with crocodile
and alligator skins?
56
00:02:58,500 --> 00:03:02,100
They took a good nigga, smart kid
who could hoop, who could fight
57
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:03,900
Instead, I wish the Lord
had taken t...........
