[Intro: Inspectah Deck]

It's not Jacob, but you can still call me the jeweler

You know how I throw that jewelry on you

And this one right here, this is just a tennis bracelet

You rock that with your white Nikes, and your white tee

Sunny Dave' style, ya'll feel me? Come on



[Inspectah Deck:]

I dreamed I was top of the world, watching the world

Awoke to a room full of smoke, gun at my throat

I dwell in the heart of the hell, but never fell

Po'nine scopin' me the whole time, they close behind

My wants just as big as my needs, so it's agreed

To strap up, tie these shoes, provide the school

A wild out, had to hide out, in China's house

Then run free, down to 1G, and hungry

I won't fold, from the chokehold, I broke molds

Fake ones, fake as they come, waiting to front

I fight if it cost me my life, toss me the knife

To move up, I do what I must, but who to trust

I came from the grain and remain mentally stained

The hardships, starving artist, it's obvious

I'm 'raging against the machine' to make some CREAM

That's how we live, just grab your kids, now we big

All up in The Source, we flip and win the toss

The law say, lock 'em away, vow to this day

The world is ours, we the loud ones at early hours

Striving, for a new way, my dues are payed



[Chorus x2: Inspectah Deck]

All I want is mine..

All I want is mine..

All I want is mine..

All I want is mine..



[Interlude w/ Chorus: Inspectah Deck]

Yeah.. I mean, yo, we grinding out here

We got our lives on the line

We got oddballs watching us

We got fucking thieves, crooks, murderers

Gangstas, we got all types of shit we gotta watch out for

Let alone, your right hand man'll send shots to wet you, son

Shit..



[Inspectah Deck:]

My conscience beggin' me chills, steady we build

I ask, is it back to the cracks after the raps

Where I'm from, used to be fun, soon'll become

A deathtrap, mental setback, forget that

I'mma do this, for that all I am, call out a man

Black like Sidney Portier, boy, beware

The future's now, my superpowers could move the crowd

The road I follow, so far to go to see tomorrow

I'm close to the edge, my folks are mislead

Some, lose a step, lyric clueless, they choosin' death

That's the wrong vibe, the strong survive, known as they strive

Now watch me, top of the key, dropping a three

In my fate, the biography state, I would be great

For now, I milk the cow, build it from the ground

More or less, continue conquest hard as it gets

The promised land, ain't promised to a honest man

So, right or wrong, I'm fighting on this life long

Now let me live, set for my wiz and seven kids

I hit the block focus like Mr. Spock

And whether, rhymes or crimes, all I want is mines



[Chorus x2]



[Outro: Inspectah Deck]

All I want is mines, what they expect us to do?

They taking programs to a channel, man

You gotta pay to be locked up, you ain't getting no jobs

Niggaz got three/four kids, four or five baby moms

No crib, living out they cars and shit

I got to get mines... then ain't no stopping

I'mma do what I gotta do, and I'mma rep for my set

My nigga Case rest in peace, my nigga, I'mma see you

The'll never take me alive, the'll never take me alive..
