World Without The Hyphen (Produced by Lip Beats)

from Soon You'll Understand by B Hyphen

/

lyrics

I never thought it would be like this
So many projects come and gone, discography like this
So many friends made and so many nights drinking
So many jam sessions, so many times bitching
So many rhymes lost and corrupted audio files
So much time missed, trying to get that one line
But I wouldn't change a moment for the world
From getting questioned by some Bloods to going out on mini-tours
Putting out these mixtapes for basically my friends' sake
But never doing the album thinking I wasn't that great
But now the moment's here, yes, we have arrived
I wish I could give you this feeling that I have inside
From the first rap I wrote a few months after Pac passed
To when I decided in oh nine that 30 would my last dance
To every drop of ink I used and every notebook I went thru
I did it all for hip-hop, most of all, I did it, for you.

Don't cry for me, I promise you, it's all right with me
I'm moving on to the new, this ain't the last of me
There's nothing else to say, so raise your glass for me

Even tho I'm gone, remember that I live on thru my songs
A world without the Hyphen isn't scary at all
Thank you for letting me have a place within it all

This wouldn't be possible if it wasn't for Chiv
He's the one who told me to rhyme
I was singing at the time and I felt that it would be fine if I stayed in my R&B line
But like I said the bars came, 411 was the name
We was gonna take over the world
Manifesto by oh two, shit ain't never changed since
And I wouldn't be who I am if he hadn't talked sense
Met Monstalung at 123 in oh five
At a Katrina benefit, he told to me to stop by
Played my music on the Diner and I never felt finer
Knew I could learn from this guy, had to let em be the driver
So much time in the studio and backstage at shows
Even in 100 years, still won't know all that he knows
And the bond grows stronger even when the music stops
And we're probably talking about Melo's selection of shots.

Never give up on your dreams no matter what no one says
Work hard, love hard until the day that you are dead
And even if it's only one time that you do it
Your actions spark actions, you're always an influence
That's the best advice I got at 29
Holla at me down the road, preferably at 49
To every drop of ink I used and every notebook I went thru
I did it all for hip-hop, most of all, I did it, for you.
