- [Phonte – Intro]
- Y'know, ev'rybody was askin me.
- After you quit your job...whatchu do?
- Uh...
- Walked outta Belk like, I was feelin brand new
- something I never felt like, I had been emancipated
- and it seem strange but deep down I know it felt right
- Back to the crib, I went to tell my girl
- And she just looked at me like, "Nigga, I already knew"
- So we packed up the Nissan and went to Maryland
- for the holidays, my son was bout to be two
- Fresh out of a job, what's a nigga to do?
- So I called Beni B., he shot niggas some loot
- So thankful to God that I was able to pay rent
- Met Kev Brown, did the "Can't Stay Away" shit
- Went back home wit out pockets butt-naked
- Times got tight, we ain't know if we would make it
- Met with the label who decide that now we
- We'll do the first Little Brother tour through Cali
- Maaaan! Shit was whack as hell
- We was for +The Big Throwdown+ like Le-vert
- Me, Pooh, 9th, I.D., and Malachi
- In the crowded-ass van filled with ugly-ass T-shirts
- Dealin with the label drove Tiggalo bizzerk
- So when we got home, I put my foot on the flo'
- Said, "I ain't doin this management shit no mo'"
- Gave the call to my nigga Big Dho, let's get it
- We started makin money doin some travelin
- But at home, my family life was steady unravelin
- Me and ol' girl wasn't seein eye to eye
- Just shackin up, layin thigh to thigh
- Not in love, just +Fakin Jax+ like InI
- She said, "Baby, you know I'll go through the wall for you"
- But when I stepped off the plane back from Portugal
- She was gone - fuck it, y'all niggas heard "All For You"
- Came back to the crib, had to pack all my shit up
- Cause that's when we did our first tour with Hiero
- Seem like everyday them niggas stay high tho'
- I love y'all, thanks for teachin us how to grind, yo
- Came off the road with my name well-respected
- Hit the studio, me and Nic finished "Connected"
- Money in my pocket and a new apartment
- And on top of that – now the major labels is watchin
- Heeeey! It was the top of ‘04
- And everythang seem to be movin in slo-mo
- Niggaz wanted a deal so bad, they can taste it
- But everyday, it seem like it would be a no-go
- With a palm that's sweaty and hand that's jittery
- Signed, to Atlantic and the rest is misery
- Oops! – fraudulent slip, I mean the rest is history
- I"m just still a little hot, excuse my niggery
- In the middle of makin "The Minstrel Show"
- We was out one night, saw this thang that caught my eye
- I like the way that she danced, like the way that she moved
- Fly conversation and the way she thought was fly
- She moved in and we got real close
- And I can see that she was way above av-erage
- So we tied the knot, and my second son dropped
- about, six weeks after the album did
- Y'all niggas know the rest, I won't bore you widdit
- "Minstrel Show" came and went; we went to war with critics
- They said, "We wouldn't make it as a two-man team"
- But this is part of a two-man dream
- that I had in my heart since I walked out the store
- That's what I did with my next day, whatchu gon' do with YOURS?
- Whatchu gon' do with YOURS?
- ...and that's what hap'n, peace!
