" My Promise "
by : Pursuit
Before I do anything , I wanna dedicate this song to the people that's been behind me from the start . My peoples from my hood...and others like people from Divine prophecies , Darkcide , and my other crews that supported me in rapping and emotional times . I wanna shout-out to all in East Coast , West Coast , North Side , South Side... My peoples from the hood , " Killa K " , " Nyne " , " Looney Tune " , My rival , and my Ex , Natayah . I wanna thank my old music teacher , Ms Ransom , My mom , My dad , and My Brother Shawn , aka , " S.Dub " for optimizing my love for music .
Verse :
Aight , I might be young , but I seen the world's evil .
Satin taking souls , hatred spreading like the meassles .
I hate it when strong mothers are left in sorrow
Cause they son killing people like it's no tommorow
If this is what life is about , then it's no point living
We shoudn't have to act like something just to " fit-in "
Why have power ? when you can have energy ?
So if Nas has the " Ether " , then I got the " Remedy "
Killing , Guns , Violence , that ain't what rappers do .
And if 50 cent is all he worth , then he got taxes due .
Some " Cash Money " rappers talk about Gang banging...
So killing Venus' Half Sister was nothing but dedication ? ( Yetunde Price )
Living on the streets , shooting peoples , no hesistation .
Struggling to survive in the hood , wit no education .
You might see me around, but when im at my modest
But when you see me heading for the crown it was nothing but a promise
Hook ( Chorus ) ( 2x ) :
I promise Ya Im gonna make it to the top....
Im like the street sweepers , cleaning up the block
I went from hero to zero , Now Im starting from scratch
A dream of a prophecy revealed witta rap
Verse :
It's like I was fated to rap but not in for tha money .
Not in it for tha rep , drama or in for tha honeys
I was inspired by this rap game , to change the media
To go to more places than people on expedia .
I made this Promise for everyone who believed my talent ,
Could help me survive through this rap game's gauntlet
I believe my ryhmes could set an inmate free .
I think my flow is tight....so others relate to me .
And if I don't make it to the top , you can do whatever you wish .
So if im gonna get tooken out of the game...My lyrics will be missed
It sends a strong impact to the people....one you'll never resist
But Im always gonna be the best , number one on everyone's list .
So now watch as im " Gonna make it " just like jadakiss.
Hook ( Chorus ) ( 2x ) :
I promise Ya Im gonna make it to the top....
Im like the street sweepers , cleaning up the block
I went from hero to zero , Now Im starting from scratch
A dream of a prophecy revealed witta rap
Thankyou everyone here for being there man..
