Don't Pass Me By (Remastered 2009)

[Verse 1] Here we go yo,here we go yo So what's,so what's,so what's the scenario At this point,I shouldn’t have to ask you to grab a joint Cause you can’t contact me unless gravity’s null and void Only the sun could reach me,yet I’m the one that your son avoids Rest in peace to my Grammys happy to be your sonnys' boy Deliver the intricate ish that makes listeners shiver And some niggas just wonder what on earth is that funny noise It’s raw hip hop with none of that crummy joy Not telling some money stories or flaunting my jewelry Some niggas don’t have the privilege to be given the doobie That luck’ll pass out,not caring if you stand out Rich niggas get quicker than kids who stickin their hands out Middle finger reaching to stand out in this vast crowd Laugh but know exactly what happens to those who laugh loud They cry later cause that laugh’ll only last now Shad proud of his past trials,cause I tell myself that my bank account gon get maxed out [Hook] You gotta pray and you gotta hope And God’ll answer you unless he’s not at home Pray he says yes and you successful But most of the times,you just gotta know you got a no You just gotta know you got a no Most of the times,you just gotta know You got a no(X4) [Verse 2] My niggas by my side,light the spliff with the fire Don’t rush to pass me a puff cause I ain't quick to get high Pull slow,let the thrill slowly drift in my mind With the smoke willy nilly drifting up my sinus Actually that was an analogy,I caught this sickness from my niggas It wasn’t an allergy,they said with this rapping thing If you capture your dreams rapidly,you’ll crash and burn and the status you earned Won’t last half a week,take it slow,don’t make it just to make the dough If you have the key,don’t be fast to get pass the door Eat the first platter then ask for more And ask the lord the to get cash galore But don’t rely on him entirely,put in ya time wisely until he finally Decides to be kind to me,rappin’ to the point where I’m no longer a wannabe This hobby’s a job that could possibly be supporting me Industry’s got more profits than my country economy I ain't bout it for my wallet,but I’d love to be counting greens Bouncing in some cars that I probably thought I never afford Showing off,floss on all who said I wouldn’t amount to things Cause in a way success is my best revenge story,eventually Ima knock these suckers out the ring,don’t doubt the king A thousands pardon if you shout my name Get ya loudest screams to spread around your mouth like sour cream,nigga
