I was out on the street just tryin to survive. 

(Jin) 

Man I was just tryin to eat. 

Is this what happens? 

Ya'll Ima do this in one take 

If I gotta do it again. It jus wasnt meant to be. 

Uh Yeah. Yo Golden Child I owe you big time for this joint yo 

Pass my words, people feel me 



I sit up nights let the beat loop 

contemplate what to write 

think you got me figured out 

but you'll never know what its like 

To live my life the attempts to live up to hype 

of being the nicest Asian to ever lift the mic 

If I bite the dust while I'm writin this song. 

then I might just end right where I belong 

amongst legends 

Thats how ya'll should remember me 

Gone but forever existin in a memory 

So I never ask for applause 

If all goes well I leave this due to a natural cause 

Picture me with my grandkids 60 years old 

Watching BET footage from 40 years ago, Like 

your grandfather he used to be a beast 

when it came time to battle aint nobody want a piece 

The way i tell the story they amazed i'm older 

tellin me grandpa your glory days is over 

flashback to the present moment 

where the real battle just gettin started 

and i'm my own opponent 

Ready to call it quits 

But getting a busy tone 

I might stop by radio and pull a bizzy bone 

see my whole life changed in the last four years 

alot of laughter but definitely not without tears 

I watched the Asian rap community grow 

first there was none. 

now there a few cats that nobody knows 

I suppose they label me the one that was chosen 

to open doors for tthose that was normally closed 

who oughta get props I composed a list 

n no particular order yo it goes like this 

YungMAC the protégé LS is a beast 

lyrically Snacky Chan Thai & FAReast 

Liv n proof Shogun K Grey I'm wit ya 

we gota open our eyes and see the bigger picture 

Jargon INVAZN On Fire get props REIGN ERA 

Mountain Brothers holla at me Chops! 

If I didn't mention ya name don't take it as a diss 

you got my support if you takin it serious 

sometimes my efforts seem unappreciated 

I know I ain't shit!! but hey at least I made it 

this far for yall that didn't wish me success 

heres my biggest flaw I still wish yall the best 

and thru it all I kept a level head listened 

to God and ignored what the devil said 

I can't leave rap alone the game needs me 

hard to let go cause none of this came easy 

how many times do I gotta prove myself!? 

do I really gotta battle EM and Lose Myself!?? 

106 The Fight Klub Smack DVD 

a classic CD well at least it was to me 

what else can you do to me 

I went to war with the radio station on behalf of my community 

bout to retire pull a Hova I quit 

no more its over for Jin Im tired that's it.
