I'm rough  when the going gets tough I never give up
 If you survive where we grew up  then that was luck
 But this rap shit is in my heart to the core
 Even the Lord can't stop me  this is what I am made for
 Always had to struggle  shit is hard
 In fact  my whole age (Two decades) and add four years to that
 But hard work is the answer
 Black like a panther, stayin on my toes like a ballet dancer
 I'm a pay the cost to be the boss
 Look at these hoes bouncing, with their chicken heads cut off
 I stay focus, and I hope this dedication
 (I know that this dedication pays off) That shit is bogus
 Giving it what I got, I won't fall
 Cause my all is success, so yes yes y'all

 I'm a give it my all, cause this is all that I got, plus
 "If I wasn't nice, motherfucker I wouldn't be here"
 You hope that we fall, you scheme and plot, but
 "If I wasn't nice, motherfucker I wouldn't be here"

 Rough is how they want it, so here it comes
 All sons get silent, I'm getting violent with these drums
 Mum's the word, you heard us in action
 A lot of stars are missing (Niggas are relaxing)
 But Show gets ill with his street skills
 I put raps on tracks that's so real that my peeps feel
 I got to make it, blues ain't what I choose
 Can't stand to lose and a lot more to prove
 So truly, to go through me, you must face me
 Try to erase me, you'd better bring your toolie
 Any platform or stage I stand on, fans stand up
 With their hands up because the man's on

 I'm a give it my all, cause this is all that I got, plus
 "If I wasn't nice, motherfucker I wouldn't be here"
 You hope that we fall, you scheme and plot, but
 "If I wasn't nice, motherfucker I wouldn't be here"

 Pardon, while I barge on your squadron
 The Eighth Wonder, while you stay in hunger, ideas be starving
 You'll get ate like food for thought
 Take these melodies, we gonna bring the truth, fuck the court
 Cause I'm hot like hot sauce
 Juice like Mott's, when I stop, that's when you get your rocks off
 (Wack?) That's a rumor (In fact) It's soon to
 Show & A shines, stay on your mind like a brain tumor
 Here's the facts: Show got the best tracks
 Those that shitted, they gots to get it from the back
 We attract the rough and rowdy
 Got 'em bottom of the nineth, time for the rally
 I'm a genius, mics are stamped on my birth
 Cover your girl, and be forth God, if that's your Earth
 You'd better burst, been deep since you've heard me speak
 Had knowledge of self since ?Anna Ford? had his belts
 From the place where this rap shit originated
 I play it cool like a dairy, so just hear me and refridgerate it
 Whoever sleep, I'm a get 'em
 From the cradle to the grave I'm just a slave to the rhythm

 I'm a give it my all, cause this is all that I got, plus
 "If I wasn't nice, motherfucker I wouldn't be here"
 You hope that we fall, they scheme and plot, but
 "If I wasn't nice, motherfucker I wouldn't be here" (Repeat 2x)

 "If I wasn't nice, motherfucker I wouldn't be here" (Repeat til fade
