[00:01.54]
[00:20.22]Ten years ago I used to listen to rappers flow
[00:22.57]Talkin' about the way they rocked the mic at the disco
[00:25.05]I liked how that sh*t was goin' down
[00:26.51]
[00:27.15]Dreamt about ripping the mic with my own sound
[00:29.73]So I tried to write rhymes somethin' like them
[00:31.80]My boys said That ain't you Ice
[00:33.25]That sh*t sounds like them so I sat back thought up a new track
[00:36.57]Didn't fantasize kicked the pure facts
[00:38.59]
[00:39.12]Motherf**kers got scared 'cause they was unprepaired
[00:41.49]Who would tell it how it really was Who dared
[00:43.69]A motherf**ker from the west coast L A south central fool
[00:46.76]Where the crips and the bloods play
[00:48.41]When I wrote about parties it didn't fit
