Story behind the song
In early August 03' I entered a $10,000 Demo Deal contest in Phoenix. After the first audition the A&R heads,who were judging the contest for VH1 (Save The Music Fest), said that they loved my lyrics but needed the verses broke down to 12-16 bars apiece if I wanted to be in the contest. Kids gotta eat, so I got with my DJ, hammered a joint out, blazed it up, and took it to the A&R cats in Hollywood. I got a call in mid September saying Roc-a-fella liked the song and had placed me amongst the top 50 finalist. Went to Hollywood, put it down again. The Roc claims I wasn't top 5 so here I am...Hungry!
Lyrics
They say the lyrics is tight enough to make a nunn cuff a verse and say its hers I'm like a gun they way a nigga spray the words play the verse like Rickey Henderson playing first scoping second can't tell me I'm not gone steal the way I hold the record I'm so direct when its dropping its popping its nice where'd he come he so polished with provocotive insight I'm from Rockford I got it inside til the last of my blood drip I'm gone rip hot til I die like Pac is alive
(CHORUS)I'm so fresh call me young in the game young and insane I'm ryhming stay gringing gotta feed this hunger pain I be up til the day goes night it pay when the flows tight stay grinding kicking flows til the day when my dough's right.
So what if my heat's white if it don't feed my wife I'm tired of squeezing nine to fives I'm ready to lead my life I squeeze these dice open the hand play the cards I was dealt seeing life as an old young man spitting fire til the bars melt I'm heart felt if you done starved or if you ain't ate today or if you place pen to page to take the pain away I'm like the rest of these rappers if you take they chains take they Range take they change give 'em something flame to say I'm a name away from aboard that plane today getting paid to focus this brain aim and spray I can stop I know my comp ain't came this way ain't displayed this word play but it ain't a game to A' I stay two ears away from unlocking doors to the bing from flipping copies like Samaraa with the world locked in the Ring I'm at the top play me loud I'll make a vegetables toe's curl I'm the hottest shit to not rock a crowd like The Best of Both Worlds
(CHORUS)
Third world countries can't fathom my hunriness gotta have that money quick known to flow bananas like monkey shit be bummy six days out of seven the sabbath I'm resting be knee-deep in my Testaments peeping answers to questions adding suggestions opening my eyes recognizing blessing thanking the Lord for making my gift of gab my profession obsorbing leesons trying to stay sin free on the street to heaven Lord forgive me but I gotta have that bread yested or unleavend that'll help my wealth was taught the Lord helps those who help themselves overload my raps with realness hoping that'll help them sell my thoughts cruise easy down mental rivers giving men the shivers then I blow weed cause I see that that will help them sail who am I now who would I be with them in a cell I'm already on probation for weighting thinning the scale keeping real I'm young and insane its my veins I'll be making music til I'm too sick gone from these hunger pains
(CHORUS)
