| One out of every two people that see me
|
| In the street ask me about my CD
|
| What style will I create?
|
| And what’s the delay on the release date?
|
| I hate to tell y’all the cold, cold truth
|
| I’m a old nigga in the vocal booth
|
| Coulda been a legend like Big and 'Pac
|
| But I caught a bad case of writer’s block
|
| Writer’s block, for those unaware
|
| Is a condition that’s hardly rare
|
| Often compared to a tree that bears no fruit
|
| A bank account with no loot
|
| The inability to produce a thought
|
| Ideas get stale, brain cells rot
|
| Failed attempts at concentration
|
| I’m in a state of psychological stagnation
|
| So whatcha gonna do?
|
| You try to write it but nothing will come to you
|
| Don’t try to fight it, tell me, what’s it gonna be?
|
| Don’t lose your cool, I know it’s usually so easy
|
| But now you’ve been caught up with writer’s block
|
| Stuck on stupid, thinking bout the new kid
|
| On the block, as the clock keeps ticking
|
| Time is of essence, must maintain presence
|
| Out of sight, out of mind
|
| Still can’t find the words to explain
|
| My joy and my pain, I’m going INSANE
|
| Like the nigga from The Shining
|
| Everything on the line when I’m rhymin
|
| The only way I pay rent, I represent
|
| The only way I eat, I rhyme to a beat
|
| The only way I buy clothes, I rock shows
|
| Now you can see why the problem is posed
|
| Yo It’s kinda crazy when you think about it
|
| I mean niggas get paid just to say what they think about
|
| This that and the other. |
| It sound easy
|
| But, on the real, everybody sound greasy
|
| Talk gangsta when you really ain’t one
|
| The last gat you blasted was a paint gun
|
| Paint fictitious pictures to get richer
|
| When you really a bitch, I ain’t mad witcha
|
| I wish I could make people believe
|
| That I slang keys and tote D’s, but I’m sorta like a fuckin' dweeb
|
| And that don’t sell
|
| I never been shot, or been to jail
|
| But I’m beginning to wish I had been
|
| Just to put it down on a pad with a pen
|
| Cause I just wanna ball with the rest of 'em
|
| Be inducted in the hall with the best of 'em
|
| But for now, it’s just a dream
|
| Cause I can’t think of one fucking thing |
