lyrics

Uh, a couple calls I would call close,
Couple times I added dead after an almost,
Guns to my head with the hammers pulled back,
Seen more than I shoulda fore my camera goes black,
Brraat, heard that sound a couple times too,
Usually times two, brraat, then it’s swine flu,
Sick how these cops fly, only when it’s time to,
Send someone off, can’t put it on the times, too,
Old of a profession, better put it on the blind,
People, open up your eyes, better open up the blinds, too,
There’s been a few times, I couldn’t find help,
Nobody to turn to so I turned to myself,
Situation critical and everyone’s a critic,
Prolly woulda killed somebody til I saw how spitting rhymes felt,
Laugh it off, Seinfeld,
I’m just happy to be lucky that I rhyme well,
Cause I can think of a couple occasions I fell,
Down, criticizing the whole world from my cell,
More than once, rap’s saved me, it’s crazy,
And where it takes me, I’ll let time tell.

Uh, there’s been a few times,
That I could only smile if I spit a few lines,
Uh, there’s been a few times
Uh, uh, there’s been a few times. (X2)

--A couple few times I tried to do right,
Tried to live by the bible and tried to do like, Him,
But it’s hard, to turn the other cheek,
Living in a world where you can be too light-skinned,
So I save a few lines for the stressful days,
Hold those, push the rest away and then I just chill,
Just one thing to fall in place,
That’s all I really need to happen, then the rest will, bet,
And if it never does, I’ll be a never-was,
Nothing you never saw, no kind of better buzz,
Something nobody heard, might as well never spoke,
Wasted too many words, held on too long to hope,
-There’s been a few times, I wished upon a noose,
Cause I ain’t have a wish to pawn, or the power on,
So there’s been a few times I got my prowler on,
And I ain’t proud of that, but I’m so proud they’re gone,
Cuz hip-hop has saved my life; I said hip-hop has saved my life,
Never forget it, yo, hip-hop has saved my life, I said hip-hop has saved my life.
