[00:10.47]And I promise if you take me home,
[00:12.54]I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone
[00:15.66]Said come on baby, throw me a bone,
[00:17.88]I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone

[00:37.89]That's my favorite subject, I don't know if you picked up on that yet or not
[00:42.30]I never said I had a business mind
[00:44.43]I just don't believe that quitting time exists, ain't no finish line to this

[00:50.61]Live and die with the grind, driven by the fist
[00:53.13]Where you do place my name if I never played your game?
[00:55.86]We don't race the same, I don't run inside no painted lane
[00:58.98]Plus y'all pace is strange, y'all either stop or you sprint

[01:17.31]Put listening stations in the store and let the public hear
[01:20.25]Better yet, let's have an in-store performance
[01:22.59]Make it oranges to oranges, me dwarfin' your endurance
[01:25.65]After that we'll shoot the shit with our supporters
[01:27.84]and see how many more discs of yours the indie stores order
[01:31.26]See you already know I out-rap 'em
[01:33.12]On the low, we out-work, out-think, and out-class them
[01:35.76]And I promise if you take me home,
[01:37.83]I'll sing you a song, never leave me alone
[01:41.01]Said come on baby, throw me a bone,

[01:58.23]Nobody's doing this thing exactly like we do.
[02:00.48]I mean they do it, they just ain't doing it exactly like us, you know what I'm saying?
[02:03.81]Sucker-ass mother****ers
[02:07.59]My personal pedigree's so bona fide,
[02:10.35]'Cause a man of my stature ain't grown overnight
[02:13.17]The undisputed king of where poor folks reside
[02:15.81]Because every time I speak there'll be hope vocalized in you
[02:18.81]Sit and bitch with them chickens about "it isn't fair"
[02:21.51]The sound system ain't shit, but I was crystal clear
[02:24.15]We first-name basis with soundmen, we bring 'em beer
[02:26.67]Plus I tipped 'em fifty last semester when the clique was here
[02:29.64]Listen here, I ain't going give you all the secrets
[02:31.86]Just these few examples help me illustrate my pretense
[02:34.83]Our strength is unrelated to your weakness
[02:37.05]'Cause you'll never be a worthy pool of peers to be competed with
[02:40.23]I sing my shit with Son House and Syl Johnson
[02:42.63]and always lose, I done lost face too
[02:45.09]but I'm sporting they shoes, so let me remind you
[02:47.67]them little kicks you're trying to fit,
[02:48.99]we outgrew them sons of bitches in high school
[02:50.97]And I promise if you take me home,

[03:46.59]and see your lips are moving to the true shit that I write
[03:49.29]and we going be all right, every night of my life is my night

作曲 : Brother Ali
And I promise if you take me home,

You got to give me mine, I really shine, my given time is this
Live and die with the grind, driven by the fist
Where you do place my name if I never played your game?
We don't race the same, I don't run inside no painted lane
Plus y'all pace is strange, y'all either stop or you sprint
Run when it's sunny and hide if it change to rain
