04:33
"I remember you was conflicted 04:47
Misusing your influence 04:49
Sometimes I did the same 04:52
Abusing my power, full of resentment 04:54
Resentment that turned into a deep depression 04:57
Found myself screaming in the hotel room 05:00
I didn't wanna self-destruct 05:03
The evils of Lucy was all around me 05:07
So I went running for answers 05:10
Until I came home 05:13
But that didn't stop survivor's guilt 05:16
Going back and forth trying to convince myself the stripes I earned 05:18
Or maybe how A-1 my foundation was 05:23
But while my loved ones was fighting the continuous war back in the city 05:27
I was entering a new one 05:32
A war that was based on apartheid and discrimination 05:34
Made me wanna go back to the city and tell the homies what I learned 05:40
The word was respect 05:44
Just because you wore a different gang color than mine's 05:47
Doesn't mean I can't respect you as a black man 05:51
Forgetting all the pain and hurt we caused each other in these streets 05:55
If I respect you, we unify and stop the enemy from killing us 06:00
But I don't know, I'm no mortal man 06:06
Maybe I'm just another nigga" 06:11
Shit and that's all I wrote 06:15
I was gonna call it "Another Nigga," but it ain't really a poem 06:18
I just felt like it's something you probably could relate to 06:21
Other than that, now that I finally got a chance to holla at you 06:25
I always wanted to ask you about a certain situa- 06:28
About a metaphor, actually, uh, you spoke on the ground 06:32
What you mean by that? What the ground represent? 06:36
The ground is gonna open up and swallow the evil 06:40
Right 06:44
That's how I see it, my word is bond 06:44
I seeand the ground is the symbol for the poor people 06:46
Right 06:49
The poor people is gonna open up this whole world 06:50
And swallow up the rich people 06:51
'Cause the rich people gonna be so fat (mhm) 06:53
And they gonna be so appetizing (mhm) 06:54
You know what I'm saying, wealthy (right), appetizing (hungry) 06:56
The poor gonna be so poor, and hungry 06:59
Right 07:01
You know what I'm saying, it's gonna be like 07:02
You know what I'm saying, it's gonna be 07:03
There might, there might be some cannibalism out this muhfu- 07:05
They might eat the rich, you know what I'm saying? 07:08
A'ight, so let me ask you this, then 07:10
Do you see yourself as somebody that's rich 07:12
Or somebody that made the best of they own opportunities? 07:15
I see myself as a natural-born hustler 07:19
A true hustler in every sense of the word 07:21
I took nothin', I took the opportunities 07:24
I worked at the m-most menial and degrading job 07:25
And built myself up so I could get it to where I owned it 07:29
I-I went from having somebody managing me 07:32
To me hiring the person that works my management company (right) 07:34
I changed everything, I realized my destiny 07:36
In a matter of five years, you know what I'm saying? 07:38
I made myself a millionaire (right), I made, I made millions for a lot of people 07:41
Now it's time to make millions for myself, you know what I'm saying? 07:44
I made millions for the record companies (mhm) 07:46
I made millions for these movie companies (mhm) 07:48
Now I make millions for, for us (mmm) 07:50
And through your different avenues of success 07:52
How would you say you managed to keep a level of sanity? 07:56
By my faith in God, by my faith in the game 08:00
And by my faith in "all good, all good things come to those that stay true" 08:03
Right 08:08
You know what I'm saying? 08:09
And it was happening to me for a reason 08:10
You know what I'm saying, I was noticing, shit 08:11
I was punching the right buttons and it was happening 08:14
So, it's no problem, you know 08:17
I mean, it's a problem, but I'm not finna let them know (hmm) 08:19
I'm finna go straight through 08:21
Would you consider yourself a fighter at heart or somebody that 08:23
Somebody that only reacts when they back is against the wall? 08:28
Shit, I like to think that at every opportunity I've ever been 08:32
Uh, threatened with resistance, it's been met with resistance 08:37
And not only me, but it goes down my family tree 08:41
You know what I'm saying, it's in my veins to fight back 08:44
A'ight, well, how long will you think it take before niggas be like 08:47
"We fighting a war, I'm fighting a war I can't win 08:52
And I wanna lay it all down" 08:55
In this country, a Black man only have like 08:58
Five years we can exhibit maximum strength 09:00
And that's right now while you a teenager, while you still strong 09:03
While you still wanna lift weights, while you still wanna shoot back 09:06
'Cause once you turn thirty it's like 09:08
They take the heart and soul out of a man 09:10
Out of a Black man in this country 09:12
And you don't wanna fight no more 09:14
And if you don't believe me, you can look around 09:15
You don't see no loud mouth thirty-year old motherfuckers (mhm) 09:17
That's crazy, because me, being one of your offsprings of the legacy you left behind 09:19
I can truly tell you that there's nothing but turmoil goin' on so, I want to ask you 09:25
What you think is the future for me and my generation today? 09:31
I think that niggas is tired of grabbin' shit out the stores 09:35
And next time it's a riot it's gonna be like, uh, bloodshed, for real 09:38
I don't think America know that 09:43
I think America think we was just playing 09:44
And it's gonna be some more playing but 09:46
It ain't gonna be no playing 09:47
It's gonna be murder, you know what I'm saying? 09:49
It's gonna be like Nat Turner, 1831 (mhm), up in this motherfucker 09:50
You know what I'm saying, it's gonna happen (mmm) 09:55
That's crazy, man, in my opinion 09:57
Only hope that we kinda have left is music and vibrations 10:02
A lot of people don't understand how important it is, you know 10:07
Sometimes I can like, get behind a mic and I don't know what type of energy 10:10
I'ma push out or where it comes from 10:15
Trip me out sometimes 10:17
Because it's spirits, we ain't even really rappin' 10:20
We just letting our dead homies tell stories for us (damn) 10:23
I wanted to read one last thing to you 10:28
It's actually something a good friend had wrote 10:31
Describing my world 10:33
It says 10:37
"The caterpillar is a prisoner to the streets that conceived it 10:40
Its only job is to eat or consume everything around it 10:43
In order to protect itself from this mad city 10:48
While consuming its environment 10:51
The caterpillar begins to notice ways to survive 10:53
One thing it noticed is how much the world shuns him 10:56
But praises the butterfly 10:59
The butterfly represents the talent, the thoughtfulness and the beauty within the caterpillar 11:01
But having a harsh outlook on life, the caterpillar sees the butterfly as weak 11:08
And figures out a way to pimp it to his own benefits 11:12
Already surrounded by this mad city 11:16
The caterpillar goes to work on the cocoon 11:18
Which institutionalizes him 11:21
He can no longer see past his own thoughts, he's trapped 11:24
When trapped inside these walls certain ideas take root, such as 11:28
Going home, and bringing back new concepts to this mad city 11:31
The result? 11:34
Wings begin to emerge, breaking the cycle of feeling stagnant 11:37
Finally free, the butterfly sheds light on situations 11:40
That the caterpillar never considered 11:45
Ending the internal struggle 11:48
Although the butterfly and caterpillar are completely different 11:50
They are one and the same" 11:54
What's your perspective on that? 11:57
Pac? Pac? Pac? 12:01
12:06
