The Saga - Cormega
Yo Mega man whats the deal son
Yo son whattup
Yo I'm just sittin' here zoning out
Thinking about how life is
Yo life's general for us you know
How we livin' out here you know
Things we go through man
Why we gotta go through this life
Life is an interlude to death son
You ever thought about that
The saga begins
I'm a reflection of the drama within
The ghetto I live in *****s Moms on crack
Pops just disappeared
The first time you get locked up
Who really cares
I see a little snotty nosed
With his sneakers on backwards
Sleepin' on a mattress
When I go to make a sale
At times I wonder are we goin' straight to Hell
Or does God realize
We're tryin' to make it as well
My sleep is interrupted by food on the stove
Not gun shots we're immune to those
Some of my friends first bids are two to fours
Others are on the run with huge rewards
Mothers watch Son's walk through the door
For the last time 'till they go view at the morgue
Life is deep we all just tryin' to eat
Rap's a mental narcotic I supply the streets
Look at my life you see white coke and black roses
And tears shed for p***ed soldiers
We all walkin' the path chosen
From the cradle 'till the casket's lowered
I still got the black ski mask to throw on
But I can get richer off the tracks I flow on
I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't hustlin' no more
Look at my life
Life ain't fair shorty pregnant with nowhere to live
Sleepin' in a crackhouse 'cause
She don't got no relatives
Her friends wanna drink brew
And beef about who's sale it is
Now she's gettin' hungry
She smells the mar***ana scent
I paint a picture vividly
As if Pic***o's spirit entered me
Starin' at the Heavens secluded in a tinted jeep
I'm sick of hearin' eulogies
I realize my ***** Blue is - a reminder of
My past like Greek ruins
Yet his seek keeps bloomin'
Uneffected by police intrusions
Or street illusions we were consumed wit'
I've even grown away from people I grew wit'
I mean we cool but I don't need to bull****
My mood could switch easily from smooth to ruthless
We ain't built the same so mind games are useless
Times change like the climate I change
Check the forecast I reign
Look at my life you see white coke and black roses
And tears shed for p***ed soldiers
We all walkin' the path chosen
From the cradle 'till the casket's lowered
I still got the black ski mask to throw on
But I can get richer off the tracks I flow on
I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't hustlin' no more
Look at my life
Live *****s I rep for deceased I pour Moet for
Those incarcerated my heart is wit' y'all
I know at times it gets hard behind penetentiary bars
Then once free you realize you're mentally scarred
If not physically if subjected to correctional facilities
Prepare for your future to the best of
Your ability prosper otherwise
You've been conquered
Blowin' up her mobile phone so she can send you a box
Son I sit inside my residence
And thank God I'm blessed with this poetical
Gift evident in every
Ghetto like graffiti and crack sales
And cabs that won't stop for Black Males
Undercovers givin' younger Brothers bad stares
Fours clap Dogs crap in the gr*** here
You love to hear the story Son the saga began here
MC are fictitious yet there's actual facts here
Like the Bible said Jesus had napped hair
Look at my life you see white coke and black roses
And tears shed for p***ed soldiers
We all walkin' the path chosen
From the cradle 'till the casket's lowered
I still got the black ski mask to throw on
But I can get richer off the tracks I flow on
I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't hustlin' no more
Look at my life
