wasn't superstitious [00:10.87]'Til one day I grew suspicious [00:12.37]When I stepped on a crack on Aunt Edna's stoop [00:14.16]And got pooped on by a group of stupid pigeons [00:16.67]Then we flew the coop to Michigan to start anew but ditchin' [00:19.60]Missouri for Michigan didn't work [00:21.70]So we moved back to Missouri from Michigan [00:23.81]From Missouri back to Michigan

rules are Krypton-ite [00:34.60]So the walls I done lost my power to see through them ******* [00:37.13]But I run into 'em runnin' through the kitchen [00:39.43]Pretendin' to be blind Superman 'cause I had no supervision [00:43.35]But I did have a super power though I could turn into Invisible Kid [00:47.17]Disappear out of sight like a true magician [00:49.17]And one day Uncle Ronnie brought over this new but different [00:51.81]Music into the picture and it became my new religion [00:54.84]"I remember it clearly even today" [00:58.18]Move back to Michigan again to live with my Grandma Nan [01:01.26]Always itchin' for somethin' to do was flippin' [01:03.54]Through the radio stations one day [01:05.09]And discovered this DJ who was mixin' [01:07.19]I say it to this day if you ain't listened to The Wizard [01:10.04]You ain't have a ******* clue what you was missin' [01:12.30]I'd zone out with my headphones [01:13.75]All I remember doing's wishin' for shoes [01:15.76]**** them stupid Pumas ***** [01:17.24]It's all about them new edition Troops [01:18.93]You get them LL Cool J coolin' system [01:21.45]Made that final manoeuvre to 8 Mile and Hoover [01:23.48]And somehow I saw my future is in this [01:25.55]That's how I knew my mission [01:27.01]Little boom box boomin' spittin' [01:28.43]Practicin' numerous writtens [01:29.88]When I'd sit in my room envisionin' my dreams come to fruition [01:32.76]I remember Proof would visit [01:34.26]Couldn't wait to play him my new **** [01:35.73]He'd go cuckoo ballistic go through the roof for his **** [01:38.64]It's like we knew the instant [01:40.07]We touched a mic that both of us two existed [01:42.07]To do this **** never quit too persistent [01:44.56]"Carved an underground empire" [01:47.68]Started a group of misfits Proof had a proposition [01:50.39]If we all band together there ain't no stoppin' this **** [01:53.25]Come up with aliases bipolar opposites and [01:56.23]Be ready to come off the top as sharp precision [01:58.57]If you got dissed at the Shop 'cause if they caught you slippin' [02:01.37]They'd take your spot if someone got to rippin' [02:03.29]You and you forgot your written
