Big Brother

“Big Brother”

Staduim status
Uh

My big brother was Big’s brother
Used to be Dame and Bigs brother
Who was hip hop brother
Who was No I.D friend
No I.D My mentor
Now let the story begin

Its the hard knock life tour
Sell out, picture us in the mall
Coping iceberg and yell out Jigga
Yea that’s what we would yell out
Yell out
You know the name dude
I gotta spell out or tell bout
J a y an Ye so shy
Now he won’t even step to his idol to say hi
Standing there like a mime
Let the chance pass by
Back of my mind he could change your life
With all these beats I did at least let him hear it
At least you could brag to your friends back at the gig
But he got me out my mama crib
Then he help me get my mama a crib

Big brother was Bigs Brother
Used to be Dame and Bigs Brother
Who was hip hop brother
Who was No I.D friend
No I.D my mentor
Now let the story begin
Let the story begin
If you feel the way I feel why don’t you wave your hands

Fresh off the plane I’m off to Baseline
Nothing handed out
I’m about to take mine
Around the same time of that BluePrint 1
Any beats in my pocket was that Blueprint form
I’d play my little song in that old back room
He would bob his head and say, damn, oh, that’s you
But by the Black album I was blacking out
Party at S.O.Bs and we had packed the crowd
Big brother got his show up in Madison Square
And I’m like yea, yea we gonna be there
But not only did I not get a chance to spit it
Carleen told me I could buy two tickets
I guess big brother was thinking a little different
Kept little brother at bay, at a distance
Put everything I felt was more focused
Only made me more focused
Only wrote more potent
Only thing I wanna know is why I get looked over
I guess ill understand when I get more older
Big brother saw me at the bottom of the todum
Now I’m at the top and everybody on the scrodum

My big Brother was Bigs brother
Used to be Dame and Bigs brother
Who was hip hops brother
Who was No I.Ds friend
No I.D my mentor
Now let the story begin
Begin
Let the story begin
If you feel the way I feel why don’t you wave your hands

Have you ever walked in the shadow of a giant
Not only a client the presidito
Hola ovito
The game getting foul so here’s a free throw
I was always on the other side of the peep hole
Then I dropped Jesus walks now I’m on a steep hole
And we know
New jack city gotta keep my brother
But to be number 1 I’m a beat my brother
On that diamond remix I swore I spaz
Then my big brother came through and kicked my ass
Sibling rivery, only I could see
It was the pride in me that was driving me
At the Grammies I said I inspired me
But my big brother who I always tried to be
When I kick a flow it was like, pick and roll
Cause even if he gave me the rock its give and go
I guess beanies style was more of a slam dunk
And my shit was more like a finger roll
but I had them singles though
And them hoes at the show gonna minggle yo.
Ya know
I told Jay I did a song with cold play
Next thing I know he got a song with coldplay
Back in my mind I’m like damn, no way
Translate espanol
No way Jose
Then I went and told Jay brown
Should of known that was gonna come back around
Should of told you like a man should of told you first
But I told somebody else that’s what made shit worse

My big brother was Bigs brother
So here’s a few words from your kid brother
If you admire somebody you should go ahead and tell um
People never get the flowers while they could smell um
A ideal in my eyes, God of the game
Heart of the city,Rockafella chain
Never be the same, never be another
Number 1 young Hov also my big brother

My big Brother was Bigs brother
Used to be Dame and Bigs Brother
Who was hip hops brother
Who was No I.Ds friend
No I.D my mentor
And that’s where the story ends

Don’t kill this shit…..

“Homecoming”

Kanye West
Yeah.
And you say Chi city,
Chi city, Chi city

Chris Martin

I’m coming home again.
Do you think about me now and then?
Do you think about me now and then?
Cause I’m coming home again

Verse 1 – Kanye West

I met this girl when I was three years old
And what I loved most she had so much soul
She said, excuse me little homie, I know you don’t know me- but,
My name is Windy and, I like to blow trees and,
From that point I never blow her off,
They can come from outta town I like to show her off,
They like to act tough, she like to tow em off,
And make em straighten up their act, cause she know they soft
And when I grew up she showed me how to go downtown
And at nighttime my face lit up so astounding
And I told her in my heart is where she always be
She never mess with entertainers cause they always leave
She said it felt like they walked and drove on me
Knew I was gang affiliated got on TV and told on me
I guess it’s why last winter she got so cold on me
She said, Ye keep making that, keep making that platinum and gold for me

Chris Martin
Do you think about me now and then?
Do you think about me now and then?
Cause I’m coming home again
I’m in home again
Do you think about me now and then?
Do you think about me now and then?
Oh, now I’m coming home again

Maybe we can start again

Class back in session so I up’t it a grade
Two years the Dwayne Wayne became the Dwyane Wade
And A
Please don’t start me
I’m like Gnarls Barkley meets Charles Barkley
I’m pop the barkers, I’m hood like parkers
While you all was in limbo I raised the bar up
I touched on everything
Married to the game rock a chain stead of a wedding ring
You all brides maids catch the garter
On nights when romance
Cameras flash so much
That I gotta do that yayo dance
I’m on a world tour with Common my man
After each and every show a couple dykes in the van
It’s easy
The hood love to listen to jeezy and weezy and o yeah yeezy
I did it for the glory

Uh

What am I supposed to do now?
Man the game all messed up
How I suppose to stand out when everyone get dressed up
So yeah at the Grammies I went ultra Travolta
Yeah that tuxedo might have been a little gweedo
But with my ego, I can stand there with a speedo
And still be looked at like a fucking hero
The glory the story the chain the polo the Nike the chronic
Empty bottles of no do’s
Tank on empty whipping my mamma’s Volvo
I spent that gas money on clothes with logo’s
The furrest man that shit that you don’t floss
The Goyard so hard man, I’m Hugo’s boss
Why I gotta ask what that to door cost
House on the hill
Two doors from Tracey Ross
And I’m asking about her girlfriends yeah the dark skinned ones
She asking about the speed boats yeah I admit we rented ‘em
When you meet me in person what does it feel like
I know, I know I look better in real life
I hear people compare themselves to BIG a lot
You know BIG and Pac, you know to get it hot
I guess after I live I wanna be compared to BIG
Anyone big pun big l or notorious
Fit in
Get money and stunt and stay glorious
And I’m gonna start killin’ these niggas as soon as the chorus hit

[chorus sample]

No no I can’t study war
Yeah I’m gonna start killin’ these niggas soon as the chorus hit

Everything I Am
Oh oh oho.
damn, here we go again.
Oh oh oho.
Common passed on this beat, I made it to a jam,

now everything I’m not, made me everything I am.
damn, here we go again.
people talking shit, but when the shit hit the fan
everything I’m not, made me everything I am.

I never be picture-perfect-Beyonce
Be light as Al B or black as Chauncey
Remember him from Blackstreet
He was as black as the street was
I’ll never be laid back as his beat was
I never could see why people’ll reach a
Fake-ass facade they couldn’t keep up
You see how I creeped up?

You see how I played a big role in Chicago like Queen Latifah?
I never rock a mink coat in the winter time like Killa Cam
Or rock some mink boots in the summertime like Will.I.am
Let me know if you feel it man

’cause everything I’m not, made me everything I am

Damn, here we go again.
everybody sayin’ what’s not for him
everything I’m not, made me everything I am
damn, here we go again.

People talk shit, but when shit hits the fan
everything I’m not, made me everything I am

and I’m back to tear it up
haters, start your engines
I hear ‘em gearin’ up
people talk so much shit about me at barbershops
they forget to get their haircut
OK fair enough, the streets is flarin’ up
’cause they want gun-talk, or I don’t wear enough
baggy clothes, Reebok’s, or Adidas
can I add that he do spaz out at his shows
so say goodbye to the NAACP award
goodbye to the India.Arie award
they’d rather give me the nigga-please award
but I’ll just take the I-got-a-lot-of-cheese award

damn, here we go again.
everything I’m not, made me everything I am
damn, here we go again.
people talk shit, but when shit hits the fan
everything I’m not, made me everything I am

I know that people wouldn’t usually rap this
but I got the facts to back this
just last year, Chicago had over 600 caskets
man, killing’s some wack shit
oh, I forgot, ‘cept for when niggas is rappin’
do you know what it feel like when people is passin’?
he got changed over his chains, a block off Ashland
I need to talk to somebody, pastor
the church want tithe, so I can’t afford to pay
the slip on the door, cause I can’t afford to stay
my 15 seconds up, but I got more to say
That’s enough Mr. West, please no more today

damn, here we go again.
everybody sayin’ what’s not for him
everything I’m not, made me everything I am
damn, here we go again.
people talk shit, but when shit hits the fan
everything I’m not, made me everything I am

“Flashing Lights”
Flashing lights, lights
Flashing lights, lights
Flashing lights, lights
Flashing lights, lights
She don’t believe in shootin’ stars,
but she believe in shoes & cars
Wood floors in the new apartment,
couture from the store’s department
You more like L’eau de Stardee shit,
I’m more of the, trips to Florida
Order the h’orderves, views of the Water
Straight from the page of your favorite author
And the weather so breezy,
man why can’t life always be this easy
She in the mirror dancing so sleazy,
I get a call like where are you Yeezy
Try to hit you with a ‘Oeur de Whopee’
Till I get flashed by the paparazzi
Damn, these nigga’s got me,
I hate these nigga’s more than the Nazis
As I recall, I know you love to show off
But I never thought that you would take it this far
What do I know? Flashing lights, lights
What do I know? Flashing lights, lights

I know it’s been a while,
Sweetheart, we hard-ly talk, I was doing my thing
I know I was foul bay-bay,
a-bay late-ly you been all on my brain,
And if somebody would’ve told me a month ago
Fronting though, yo I wouldn’t wanna know
If somebody would’ve told me a year ago
it’d go, get this difficult
Feeling like Katrina with no fema
Like Martin with no Gina
Like a flight with no visa
First class with the seat back I still see ya
In my past, you on the other side of the glass
Of my memory’s museum,
I’m just saying, Hey Mona Lisa,
come home you know you can’t Rome without Caesar

As I recall, I know you love to show off
But I never thought that you would take it this far
What do I know? Flashing lights, lights
What do I know? Flashing lights, lights

As you recall, you know I love to show off
But you never thought that I would take it this far
What do you know? Flashing lights, lights
What do you know? Flashing lights, lights

Flashing lights, lights
Flashing lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights…

They cant stand it, they want something new
So let’s get re-acquainted
Became the hood favorite

Ha Ha Hum, here’s another hit, Barry Bonds

Kanye West
(yeah yeah yeah yeah)
We outta here baby!
We outta here baby!
We outta here baby!

[Kanye West]

Dude!
Fresh off the plane, konitchiwa bitches
Turn around another plane, my passport on pivot
As for what I did it, that asshole done did it
Talked it and he lived it, spitted then he shitted
I don’t need to write hits, I might bounce ideas,
But only I could come up with some shit like this
I done played the underdog my whole career
Ive been a very good sport, haven’t I, this year
They said he’s going crazy and we seen this before
But I’m doing pretty good as far as geniuses go
And I’m doing pretty hood in my pink polo
Nigga please, how you gonna say I ain’t no low-head
Cos my Dior got me more model head
I’m insulted
You should go head
And bow so hard till your knees hit your forehead
And the flow just hit code red
Top 5 MC’s you ain’t gotta remind me
Top 5 MC’s you gotta rewind me
I’m high up on the line, you can get behind me
But my head’s so big you can’t sit behind me
Life of a Don, lights keep glowin’
Comin’ in the club wit that fresh shit on, with something crazy on my arm
Ha Ha Hum, here’s another hit, Barry Bonds

Lil Wayne

Yeah, Yeah, We outta here baby!
Wha, Wha, We outta here baby!
And Mr. West is so outta here baby
And me, I’m Mr. Weezy Baby

Lil Wayne

I’m so bright not shady
My teeth and my eyes so wight like Shady
Ice in my teeth so refrigerated
I’m so fucking good like I’m sleeping with Megan
I’m all about my franklins, Lincolns and Reagans
Whenever they make them, I shall hayve them
Oops I meant have them, I’m so crazy
But if you play crazy you be sleeping with daisies
Its such a hayvic, oops I meant havoc
And my drink’s still pinker than the easter rabbit
And I’m still cold (cole) like Keisha’s family
Stove on my waist turn beef to patties
And I ate it cos I’m so at it
I don’t front and I don’t go backwards
And I don’t practice
and I don’t lack shit
And you can get Barried
Suck my bat bitch

We outta here baby
We outta here baby
We outta here baby
Life of a Don, lights keep glowin’
Comin’ in the club wit that fresh shit on
Wit something crazy on my arm
Ha Ha Hum, man here’s another hit, Barry Bonds

(yeah yeah yeah yeah)

Can’t Tell Me Nothing

I had a dream I can buy my way to heaven
When I awoke, I spent that on a necklace.
I told God I’d be back in a second,
Man it’s so hard not to act reckless.
To whom much is given much is tested.
Get arrested, guess until, they get the message.
I feel the pressure, under more scrutiny,
and what I do? Act more stupidly.
bought more jewelry, more Louis V, my momma couldn’t get through to me.
The drama, people suing me,
I’m on T.V. talking like it’s just you and me.
I’m just saying how I feel man,
I ain’t one of the Cosby’s I ain’t go to Hill man
I guess the money should’ve changed him,
I guess I should’ve forgot where I came from.
La, la, la, la wait till I get my money right
la, la, la, la then you cant tell me nothing right
Excuse Me, is you saying something?
Uh, uh, you can’t tell me nothing
(Ha ha) you can’t tell me nothing
Uh, uh, you can’t tell me nothing

Let up the suicide doors.
This is my life homey, you decide yours.
I know that Jesus died for us,
But I couldn’t tell you who decide wars.
So I parallel double parked that motherfucker sideways
Old folks talking about back in my day
But homey this is my day.
Class started 2 hours ago, oh am I late?
You know I already graduated
And you can live through anything if magic made it.

They say I talk with so much emphasis,
Oh, they’re so sensitive.
Don’t ever fix your lips like collagen
Say something were you gone end up apologising.
Let me know if it’s a problem man,
Alright man, holla then.

Chorus

Let the champagne splash, let that man get cash,
Let that man get past.
You don’t need a stop to get gas,
If he can move through the rumors, he can drive off the fumes cause
How he move in a room full of no’s?
How he stay faithful in a room full of h**s?
Must be the pharaohs, he in tune with his soul,
So when he buried in a tomb full of gold.
Treasure. What’s you pleasure?
Life is a, uh, depending how you dress her.
So if the devil wear Prada,
Adam Eve wear Nada,
I’m in between, but way more fresher.
With way less effort, ’cause when you try hard,
That’s when you die hard.
Ya homies looking like “Why God?”
When they reminisce over you, my god.

“Good Life”

It feel like L.A., it feel like Miami
It feel like N.Y., summertime Chi, ah
(Now throw your hands up in the sky)

So I roll through good
Y’all pop the trunk, I pop the hood, Ferrari
And she got the goods
And she got that ass, I got to look, sorry
Yo it’s got to be cause I’m seasoned
Haters give me them salty looks, Lawry’s

And if they hate then let ‘em hate
And watch the money pile up, the good life
Now I, I go for mine, I got to shine

The good life, it feel like Houston
It feel like Philly, it feel like D.C.
It feel like VA, or the Bay, or Ye
Ayy, this is the good life
Welcome to the good life

Homie, tell me what’s good
Why I only got a problem when you in the hood
Like I’m new in the hood, the only thing I wish?
(I wish a nigga would)
He probably think he could, but, but
I don’t think he should
50 told me go ‘head switch the style up
And if they hate then let ‘em hate
And watch the money pile up, the good life

T-Pain

Have you ever popped champagne on a plane
While getting’ some brain
Whipped it out, she said “I never seen snakes on a plane”
Whether you broke or rich you gotta get biz
Having’ money’s not everything, not having it is
I was splurging’ on trizz
But when I get my card back activated
I’m back to Vegas cause
I always had a passion for flashing’ before I had it
I close my eyes and imagine, the good life

T-Pain
Is the good life better than the life I live
When I thought that I was gonna go crazy
And now my grandmama ain’t the only girl calling me baby
And if you feeling’ me now then put your hands up in the sky
And let me hear you say hey, hey, hey, ooh
I’m good

“I Wonder”

Find your dreams come true
And I wonder if you know
What it means, what it means
And I wonder if you know
What it means, what it means
And I wonder if you know
What it means to find your dreams

I’ve been waiting on this my whole life
These dreams be waking me up at night
You say I think I’m never wrong
You know what, maybe you’re right, aight

And I wonder if you know
What it means, what it means
And I wonder if you know
What it means to find your dreams

You say he get on your fucking nerves
You hope that he get what he deserves, word
Do you even remember what the issue is
You just trying to find where the tissue is
You can still be who you wish you is
It ain’t happen yet
And that’s what the intuition is
When you hop back in the car
Drive back to the crib
Run back to their arms
The smokescreens
The chokes and the screams
You ever wonder what it all really mean

And I wonder if you know
What it means, what it means
And I wonder if you know
What it means to find your dreams

And I’m back on my grind
A psychic read my lifeline
Told me in my lifetime
My name would help light up the Chicago skyline
And that’s what I’m
Seven o’clock, that’s primetime
Heaven’ll watch, God calling from the hot lines
Why he keep giving me hot lines
I’m a star, how could I not shine
How many ladies in the house
How many ladies in the house without a spouse
Something in your blouse got me feeling so aroused
What you about
On that independent shit
Trade it all for a husband and some kids
You ever wonder what it all really mean
You ever wonder if you’ll find your dreams
