Tooting My Own Horn...

Yeah, just a lil' bit. So I was listening to my Ipod, and a song of mine comes on. The thing is, as I was listening to my own lyrics, I thought to myself, "I went in". Its a song called "Jewels" featuring my dude, Jeff "Get A Mill" Trills. As cliched as the title is, I feel that the lyrics are poignant and need to be heard. So I've put a zhare link where you wonderful blog readers can listen, download, and learn. Moreover, I figured I'd transcribe the 1st verse...SO ENJOY!!!

When mommy died, I learned that life was short.
When daddy left, I learned to fight for yours.
I learned that everything in life would cost,
but where was my life support?
I had an old man tell me, "better fight for a cause
You don't wanna fight in a fight that's not yours.
You don't wanna die in a fight just because..
You don't wanna know what life's like in a morgue.
Be careful when you write them bars;
Street dudes quick to write you off,
Question what you say and go right to the source.
I know dudes like YOU, right behind bars.
You don't wanna know what life's like in OZ.
Label owners, they WILL write you off.
They don't like your type, you're like a boss"
He took a slight pause, and said, "The World is Yours"
I said, "Whooo"

THIS IS THE LINK!!!
