lyrics

I'm up early in the morning with my mind and the mic on
Damn it feel good to know why I was born
I take a sec and reflect
On all the hardships
Bumps and dips slide
But refuse to slip
It wasn't easy in school they teased me and
Try to flop my plan
Talk all the sh** they can
To this young man
But this young man had a plan
To Hip Hop the planet
From the sea to the sands
And I don't really need a hand just a soul clap
I'm just a cold Mutha Fucka
With some hot rap tracks
So you can chat chat chat
Behind my back black but I got
Stacks of raps for felines and cats
Straight facts
Its never gonna end
Again
This mic my only friend
So you can comprehend
Why I get so bent
When they pretend that it's them
Rhed Zhone emblem to the rescue again
Again

Another hot summa day on the block in the dot
Cops spot checking g's for glocks and rocks
And it don't stop and won't stop no time soon
So I strive to contrive dope vibes
From my living room
Pick a tune it's hand crafted
How many sucka mc's
I outlasted
Blasted
Did what I had to do
Battle one man or his crew
Like I ain't had nuttin' betta to do
So it won't fail or fall
Crack chip or bust
My mic radius is catastrophic
Try to stop this young ghetto prophet you can't
So if you love hip hop raise ya hands
Mic mechanics when you plan it
Come in handy
It's ear candy
It's dandy
So haters can't stand me
But Never upper hand me
Nope
You nuts
Even then you still get buss
Don't Fuck with King Jus cuz

Work hard like a film crew
That's what I'm into
Maybe I was just born
A stubborn capricorn
But I had to get it cuz it's all I got
Nuff of my child hood heroes got shot
Or brought up on charges a lot
Doing a dime a pop
So I though I'd better not
Cuz prison ain't living
It's surviving in a hostile environment
Become a slave to the government
Man there's gotta be a betta way to spend my days
So I put pen to paper and learned to make a
Timeless hit no bullshit here
I make a fake sucka ego disappear
Poof
Like 180 proof
I'm clear
And dangerous to stomach straight
That's how I come you can't cut it
Work Hard
Work Hard
How I live and Die
Why ain't no question
Just the reason why My
