Oh, you think darkness is your ally. But you merely adopted the dark; I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but BLINDING!

Yo we hard hit, just like Comacho and Vargas
Who's the target? Now watch how we close the market
We both hard hit, just like Hagler and Hearns
Add the math, be concerned, if it's beef you burn
Yo it's sorta like, Poitier and Bill Cosby
'Let's Do It Again,' a beautiful blend, let's do it to win
The point is that he is an insecure fuck, like all beautiful-but-handed-everything-on-a-silver-platter people. He doesn't trust anyone in this world but you. You've been born into royalty, baby. You know it. Now you just gotta be thankful and wear the crown.

"You don’t care about no basketball game, you don’t care about what’s on T.V., you don’t care about nobody calling you, you don’t care about a party. The only thing you care about when you trying to breathe is to get some fresh air. That’s it! And when you get to the point where all you wanna do is be is successful as bad as you wanna breathe then you will be successful."
"....you're the first person I wanna look at when I wake up in the morning, and the only one I wanna kiss goodnight. Because the first time that I saw these hands, I couldn't imagine not being able to hold them."
I turn my dark secrets into bright ideas
I used to cry for help, I learned to wipe my tears
I was scared to embrace, but now I fight my fears
These hoes say I'm too much, it's only right I share
Pressure makes diamonds, I was made to shine
When life gave me lemons, I made lemonade with mines
What's beef? Beef is when you make mistakes
Like less burgers with ya buddies and more steaks for snakes
My story just gets better when you get to the end
So when I'm at my worst, I know it's not the end
I came from the dirt, made the cut and blew
So when you put me in that right light
What I do?
