When I Sit Here And See That

I Think That's A Weak Excuse, To Say Because A Rapper's Getting Older That He Ain't Got It No More. Nah. Don't Go By That Philosophy. Let's Just Recognize That Talent Is Within.

Before I Think We Was Emcees, We Was More Or Less Narrators Too. Because If You Look At The Early '80s Hip Hop, It Was So Much Creativity Goin' On With Artists Like Then, Like Slick Rick, Then You Had Rakim, And You Had These Different Kind Of Artists Back Then. And We Was A Marble Cake Of All These Artists. So I Didn't Have A Problem With Writin' Stories Because I Felt Like That Was Somethin' I Loved To Do. Even To This Day, I Really Consider Myself An Entertainer-slash-narrator. I Like To Talk About Stuff That Goes On.

It's True, The Shaolin And The Wu-tang, Could Be Dangerous.

The Main Thing I Look At Is: Is It From The Heart? If I Know That You Down With Me, Then We Always Gonna Be Down Through Whatever The Thick And Thin.

We Was Just Young Guys Who Wanted To Change. We Got Tired Of Doin' This Same Everyday Bullshit That We Was Doin', And We All Felt Like We Had Dreams O' Bein' A Big Star. You Know, As Far As With Myself, I Never Really Took It That Serious As Bein' A Star. I Only Took It That Serious As Bein' A Emcee, Which Is Two Different Things. You Know What I Mean?
