Scene one, setting in a comfortable womb
About 1970 dusk before moon
The birth of a child that sees its first life
Takes the first breath and picks up to steps
And then he′s off with just a few things to pack
Then on course, On a trail of trial and tribulations
On a few occasions I must admit I bust my a**
Lost my way along the path, and then I did my math
A positive plus me is a match
And we've been going steady for a while
And she said that she likes my style
We′ve been getting kind of wild as you now
But everybody can't be a rough rider,
Unless you think that you got what it takes.
I mean you really got to strive to stay alive
And prepare yourself for the brakes
And what we gonna do for you
And do you count the amount on the s*** that you′ve been do
We gonna set you up, we'll grant you this
15 minutes and you shoot your gift
We got gods and demons places stakes
Bet you sell your soul to take
And when its said and done
I hope you′re not another one
Blew it all on the liquor and the ladies
Had it all but the soul don't shine
Just another name that fades in time
What you gonna when your time comes by
How you gonna act when your curtains rise
Its all in the stars and I hope that you learn
Money, fame, glitz, and game
Lost they shine torn out the frame
What you gonna do with this avenue that you passing through
The classic hits thats you for real
Uplift those getting mass appeal
Forever gone gonna be shedding light and shine
Now baby later on, your story, VH1 at nine
