text: 1 Yeah, this album is dedicated to all the teachers
  That told me Id never amount to nothin
  To all the people that lived above the buildings that I was hustlin
  In front of that called the police on me when I was just tryin
  To make some money to feed my daughter
  To all my peoples in the struggle, you know what Im sayin?
  8 Its all good baby, baby, check it
  9 It was all a dream, I used to read Word Up magazine
  Salt n Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine
  Hangin pictures on my wall
  Every Saturday Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl
  13 Remember Rappin Duke? Duh-ha, duh-ha
  You never thought that hip hop would take it this far
  Now Im in the limelight cause I rhyme tight
  Time to get paid, blow up like the World Trade
  17 Born sinner, the opposite of a winner
  Remember when I used to eat sardines for dinner
  Peace to Ron G, Brucey B, Kid Capri
  Funkmaster Flex, Lovebug Starsky
  21 Now honies play me close like butter played toast
  From the Mississippi down to the East Coast
  Condos in Queens, indo for weeks
  Sold out seats to hear Biggie Smalls speak
  25 Livin life without fear
  Puttin 5 karats in my baby girls ear
  Lunches, brunches, interviews by the pool
  Considered a fool cause I dropped out of high school
  Stereotypes of a black male misunderstood
  30 We used to fuss when the landlord dissed us
  No heat, wonder why Christmas missed us
  Birthdays was the worst days
  Now we sip champagne when we thirsty
  34Damn right I like the life I live
  Cause I went from negative to positive
  And its all, its all good
