99 (Explicit) - Russ/Paulina/Totem
They try and look me in the eyes and tell me
There ain't no prize to be won no no
No I've been fighting for the top I'm ready
All I know is I want it all all
Yeah it's time to pack
Luggage full of dreams with the tags still intact
But the plastic's still wrapped I haven't opened it
With my feet up on a top floor screaming Jesus
But I want more it's all good though
This feel like that blow a pound
With my dawgs on my Suge flow
They love me in the hood so
Shout out Macivan spreading CD's round
The discount mall like a virus
Bosses choking hope your employees
Know how to do the Heimlich
Left the bull**** way behind like Kirk Hinrich
I'm the first of my kind ain't no doubt about it
Slightly schizophrenic I'm in the studio with myself
There's still a crowd around it
Think I finally found the youth it's in the truth
Since 50 rocked the vest I had the juices
With my feet up on a top floor screaming Jesus
But I want more
I won't stop until I hear the world
Scream my name out name out
Who you are is what you do
Not what you say
I bring the bang out bang out
Oooo I'm popping oooo I'm popping
Ooo
Oooo I'm popping oooo I'm popping
Aaa aay
I made a promise to myself in '99
Not to shoot for the sky
Would've been my biggest crime
Sifted through my teens growing now
I got a dream going
People said you sick for believing
So I sneezed on 'em
Spent the rest nights focused on the lights
Aim for the stars cock back open flight
Then I got caught hot fingerprints on the shotgun
List of success suspects and I'm the top one
You could see me live getting swifted
You could call my momma if you ask she'd admit that
Climbing from the bottom got grit and the fools take hits
But the shooter in the pit 'cause she fit
So please don't pity me you see me holding keys
I always like to tease won't be the ***** to appease
Soon the hoes come running and the checks start coming
But I'm in it for the height not the summit
Aye
I won't stop until I hear the world
Scream my name out name out
Who you are is what you do not what you say
I bring the bang out bang out
Oooo I'm popping oooo I'm popping
Ooo
Oooo I'm popping oooo I'm popping
Aaa aay
I made a promise to myself in '99
I was gonna shine
I made a promise to myself in '99
I was gonna shine
I made a promise to myself in '99
I was gonna shine
I made a promise to myself in '99
I was gonna shine
I made a promise to myself in '99
That I'd get real big open up a few minds
I made a promise to myself in '99
I was gonna shine
