Man I Is lyrics

Knockin' doors down, showin' cars around

I'ma come through and show my wood pine

Knockin', knockin' doors down, showin' cars around

I'ma, I'ma come through and show my wood pine, I'ma, I'ma come-

Knockin' doors, knockin', knockin' doors down, down

Knockin' doors, knock- knock- knock- knock- knockin' doors down

I'ma-I'ma come through, I'ma-I'ma come down

I'ma come through, I'ma-I'ma come down (yeah)

Paper chasin' on occasion

West Deer Park, that's my location

Life and death was what we was facin'

Boy, gotta get that motivation

Back in the basement

Look at my idols, I'm feelin' adjacent

Doin' the shit that I wish I was doing, I'm feelin' impatient

Throwin' parties and catching cases

That's the life, but that shit basic

I've cooked crack, I can't erase it

If I could, would not replace it

Grew up all alone

Had to teach myself to tie my laces

What's the deal?

I'ma play the field

Rattpack, we keep it real

Nothin' but love for the people that paved the way

So a brother like me, he can get it today

Antwan, Erykah and 3K

Can't forget those ain't here today

R.I.P. JD and Pimp C

Payin' respect, so don't hold it against me

Devil he callin' me, he love to tempt me

God exempt me, why you sent me here?

What I think about year to year

What I've been through these people only see through a peep hole, yeah

Not a single one got an idea

So I write it down on this page

Feel like I'm 35 times my age

Look in the mirror don't know what to say

But I'm happy the man I is

Yeah, yeah

I said I'm happy the man I is

And I'm proud of the man I've become

I'm proud that I'm from a slum

And never got cold, I never got numb

Except for the winter time and then some

I transcend and I transform

Poetic vision in rare form

Growing up, nobody there for him

I promise when I have a family I'ma be there for 'em

I love hip-hop

Hatin' motherfucker, go and kick rocks

No matter what happen I never gon' stop

Like Cole said, if they don't know yo' dreams

Then they can't shoot 'em down

But I'ma let the world know

'Cause I'm too high up to hit the ground

This shit right here is like therapy, spit it verily

I ain't perfect, I got problems, I got issues like People magazine

Shoot from the hip and reload the magazine

I wish I could just go on forever, forever, ever and ever

But this rhyme

Ill as it is divine

Gon' be cut short today 'cause I'm out of studio time

Only thought I was recording these horns and not no rhyme

What can I say? Inspiration hits at any time

So I guess I'll have to conclude all my thoughts another time

Another rhyme

Another, ano- rhyme

Anime such as Cowboy Bebop

Trigun, and Samurai Champloo

Were in constant rotation
