Blueprint 2.1专辑

  • 作词 : Carter, Smith
    作曲 : Shawn Carter & Justin Smith
    Woo! Uhh, uhh

    It's "The Gift & the Curse"

    Uhh, uhh yea
    First they love me then they hate me
    then they love me again

    .. they love me again

    Let's take a trip down.. I gotcha

    Let's take a trip down memory

    lane at the cemetery
    Rain grey skies, seems at the end of every
    young black life is this line, "Damn - him already
    Such a good kid," got us pouring Henn' already
    Liquor to the curb for my, ******s up above
    When it, cracks through the pavement
    that's my way of sendin love
    So, give Big a hug, tell Aa-liyah I said hi
    'Til the next time I see her, on the other side

    He was just some thug that, caught some slugs

    And we loved him cause, in him we, saw some of us
    He walked like us, talked like us

    His back against the wall
    ****** fought like us - damn

    Poor Isis, that's his momma name
    Momma ain't strong enough to raise
    no boy, what's his father name
    Shorty never knew him
    though he had his blood in him
    Hot temper, momma said he act
    just like her hu******and
    Daddy never ****** with him
    so the streets raised him
    Isis blaming herself
    she wish she could've saved him

    Damn near impossible, only men can raise men
    He was his own man
    not even him can save him
    He put his faith in a
    thirty-eight in his waist
    But when you live by
    the gun you die by the same fate
    End up, dead before thirty-eight and umm
    That's the life of us raised
    by winter, it's a cold world
    Old girl turned to coke
    tried to smoke her pain away
    Isis, life just, ended on that rainy day
    When she got the news her boy
    body could be viewed
    down at the City Morgue
    opened the drawer, saw him nude
    Her addiction grew, prescription drugs, ******ft and brew
    Angel dust, dipped in WOO!
    She slipped into, her own fantasy world

    Had herself pregnant by a different dude
    But reality bites and, this is her life
    He wasn't really her hu******and
    though he called her wife
    It was just this night when, moon was full
    And the stars were just right
    and the dress was real tight
    Had her sounding like Lisa Lisa
    I wonder if I take you home
    will you still love me after this night

    Mike was the hardhead from the around the way
    that she wanted all her life
    ******t she wanted all the hype
    Used to hold on tight
    when he wheelied on the bike
    He was a Willie all her life
    he wasn't really the one to like
    It was a, dude named Shy who
    would really treat her right
    He wanted to run to the country
    to escape the city life

    But I-sis, like this, Broadway life
    She loved the Gucci sneakers
    the red green and whites
    Hangin out the window when
    she first seen him fight
    She was so turned on that
    she had to shower twice

    How ironic it would, be some fight that
    turned into a homicide
    that'll alter their life
    See Mike at thirty-two was
    still on the scene
    Had a son fifteen that he never saw twice

    Sure he saw him as an infant
    but he dissed on him like
    "If that was my son, he would look much different
    See I'm light-skinned and that baby there's dark
    so it's, momma's baby; poppa's maybe

    Mike was still crazy out there running
    the streets (****** ******s want?)
    Had his old reliable
    with thirty-eight gun in his reach
    It's been fourteen years
    him and Isis ain't speak
    He running around like life's a peach, 'til one day
    he approached this thug that, had a mean mug

    And it looked so familiar
    that he called him "Young Cuz"
    Told him, get off the strip
    but the boy ain't budge (****** you)
    Instead he pulled out a newer thirty-eight snub
    He clearly had the drop
    but the boy just paused (hold up)
    There was somethin in this man's
    face he knew he seen before
    It's like, lookin in the mirror
    seeing hisself more mature

    And he took it as a sign from the almighty Lord
    You know what they say about he
    who hesitates in war
    (What's that?) He who hesitates is lost
    He can't explain what he saw before
    his picture went blank
    The old man didn't think he
    just followed his instinct

    Six shots into his kid, out of the gun
    ******s be a father, you're Killing your son
    Six shots into his kid, out of the gun
    ******s be a father, you Killing your sons
