"Hip Hop is prosecution evidence/ The out of court settlement/ Ad space for liquor"

"Restlessness is my nemesis/ It's hard to just chill and sit still"

"Hip-Hop went from selling crack to smoking it"

"Young bloods can't spell but they can rock you in Playstation"

"Universal ghetto life, holla black you know it well"

"Peace before everything, God before anything / Love before anything, real before everything / Home before anyplace, truth before anything / Style and stay radiate, love power slay the hate"

"Flow greatest like the greatest lakes / Capes on great estates, quiet water major waves"

"Reservations, exclusive arrangements / Dinner with the patrons, the scenery is amazing / It's so outrageous, they whisper when they say it / When it's really real it's even realer than "The Matrix""

"Steer the course, make a way / And come ashore on a greater day"
