In the day when my inner child was at play, I made a beast of myself
Then with a bit of luck I met a morph and it changed my entire course!
I looked back at the old me and I said
Bye-bye, to you, now ya have to go!
Bad things covered our soil
Had dreams rapping black seemed to have a star foil
Saddening past after cash steams what a heart spoil
'Cause I flapped wings of a gargoyle
Mad flings lookin' for the ass swing
Brothas are coiled kept it cracking (Uh huh) hard boiled
Add king of the dark you all, leave my heart it needed jumpin'
Gotta keep it runnin' car oil, yeah
I was abusing substances (22)
Married not knowin' what a husband is (Many knew)
It ain't nothin' I could be trusted with (But anywho)
The word split with suffixes
That divorce made a way for more many moments
To set a course and I got a really good cheddar source
I was at a corpse and yet a force said abort
Pick a better sport and then that's when I met a morph
The morph told me know yo worth, too many spaces, no mo earth
Don't die in Dorothy and Toto turf only one to get your pogo burst
Helpin' reverse the bozo curse
A thang change my whole mind, lotta money came, fame, they know N9ne!
But not about the name, my brain and soul shine
Really, they can take a main vein to old times
A higher vibration, I'm takin', this livin' is spiritual
I ain't talkin' religion, evidence ain't empiracle
I'm talkin' universal connection, manifestin' flat out blessin's
Now my energy's spherical
People around the world through my energy found free, changin' my mind
Changed everything that's around me
Comin' wit liquid metal and my label's the foundry
Then they get the lifted brotha quicka picka uppa Bounty!
I looked back at the old me and I said
Bye-bye, to you, now ya have to go!
Bye-bye, to you!
Boom bitty bye bye
Boom bitty bye-bye, bye, yeah
Now ya have to go!
I'd love to stay, but I had to go for my path to grow
I was on the outside lookin' in
With my pocket on ouch I was strapped for dough
Unaware of when my destiny would begin
Tryin' to hack the code, it wasn't practical
Now to make it pan out, I gotta stand out
Settin' the task and the tone in a cast of clones
I'ma leave out the same way I came in, intact and alone, no chaperone (Uh)
While others would babysit it, I was young and hungry havin' crazy visions
But I stumbled through it with no education
Only dedication to the way we did it (Ah)
With only my fam to encourage me, paid in compliments instead of currency
And the consequence was ten thousand hours and a decade I spent in obscurity well
Heard that patience is virtuous, I was hurtin' and searchin' for bliss
My work is my wish determined to prove I'm worthy
While reversin' the curse of my gift, I'm certain of this
The only forward is forward, never backward or lateral, duckin' all misdirection
I ain't talkin 'bout an insurrection when I say I've been capturing capital
Now when the doubt cast, I'ma shout back out wit 'em, out play and I outlast
Just because I got up out of there, that don't mean that I'm an Outkast
I've been keepin' my soul clean and it's fresh
Now when there's cold beef, it's addressed
Asked my OGs, "How do they know me though?"
And they told me it was CES, well
I looked back at the old me and I said
Bye-bye, to you, now ya have to go!
Bye-bye, to you, now ya have to go!
