[Verse 1]

But there's no map that can charter us

Shooting for the stars wasn't far enough

Bars up, I don't settle

So I shot for the goal, got closer to the silver medal, bronze medal

Sometimes I didn't even, place

So I thought I'd shoot for the space and land on a cloud

It dawned on me and bullets rang out

What I did to get there, do to stay there, my crew bang out

Good news travels faster than bad news, I'm movin' up now

Listen to Rakim then Move the Crowd

Or Lakim Shabazz, got pockets down

Locked in pure righteous, no option now

Stock up since 12/76 to be the first

That was the date that slated his birth, a statement on earth

The shots rang out, then he fired back worse

A heightened sense of capability, supplier think he dealin' me?

Who's kidding who? This ain't Who's on First

Not the joker that missed the deck, I'm the ace

I'm the poker face chip with the chip's respect

Took the oath, stay rep the West, travel the world

Whatever it's worth, I'll wear the shit on my chest

The first day of the rest of my death

Never been ready for yet, I'ma stay right here

I'm like, "Bet," no life, no fear, rather deal with stress

The price twice my original debt

Nevertheless, never the rest like me, likely

In spite of my pain, I say what I think

Mean what I say, never play the people, repent

It's E-V reppin' Dilated People events

Let's go
