《Beats, Rhymes & Life》Intro/Chorus:
Faith Evans
I really know how it feels to be, stressed out, stressed out
When you’re face to face with your adversity
I really know how it feels to be, stressed out, stressed out
We’re gonna make this thing work out eventually
Verse One:
Consequence,
Q-Tip Yo I ain’t one to complain but there’s things in the game (What’s your name?)
Consequence,
I’m tight, burnt like flames (And why’s that?)
American dreams, they got this ghetto kid in a fiend
Don’t stress that cause it’s not in your bloodstream
Your whole being, comes from greatness, d’you remember
Shatan got you caught in the storms of
December And brothers on the block packin nines like
September
Crazy situations keeps pockets on slender
Yo I be on the avenue where they be actin brand new
I’m splurgin on these
Reebok joints for shorty boo
All of a sudden,
I saw these two kids frontin
Talkin out they joints but they wasn’t sayin nuttin
My hand was on my toolie they was actin unruly (Say word)
Yo word up, yo
I was tight caught up
But I swallowed my pride and let that nonsense ride
Because I’m positive it seems that negative dies
Yo we was at the dice game makin these cats look silly
Flamin, steady runnin off at the
Willie I had my cash mixed, my rent due, with my play-dough
I gotta see some loot so all my girls
I blow Shook them s*its in my palm let em hit the flo’
Kept my eyeb***s scopin for them pigs po-po
I got to go on the ave see my parole by fo’
But I gotta steady freak these boys like
JoJo And I was doin it, til
I met Ike,
Spike, and
Mike One roll, they had my pockets thirstier than
Sprite Yo
I know the feelin, when you feelin like a villain
You be havin good thoughts but the evils be revealin and the stresses of life can take you off the right path (no doubt)
Jealousy and envy tends to infiltrate your staff
We gotta hold it down so we can move on past all adversities, so we can get through fast, like that
Chorus Verse
Two: Consequence
You got the
N.W.O. (low cash flow)
Your baby’s on the way (and you don’t know who)
And crosstown ****** tryin to (bust at you)
Aiyyo they got me stressed out (and you don’t know what to do)
Dundali, Dundalow,
Dundli Dundalee
You know I look for trouble but trouble didn't follow me
All I wanted to be was an iller
MC Ever since ***** small as
I grew up in
Queens What did you mosh of the
Nontall (Holla Me!)
I turned my best friend
Quaturem em head what
I'd seen And ever since that day (y'll hear me) things been a mess
R&B goes to rocky, true
I tell and bless
So nowadays
I go and see wifey just to kill me from stress
Lay my head on her breast, sugar definitely knows best
Explaining all my problems to her, gettin things off my chest
A lil hug up squeez up and no more
I vent Aiyo
Sunny, without my peeps
I'd be truely assed out
Making sure
I have my lettercations so
I wouldn't pass out
Native Tongues for believing in me when everyone was fessing
Most of Ja
Mighty for the guidance and the blessings
