"Word For Word" 1st Edition "Out Tha Rap Game"

Definition: Word For Word is something i decided to come up with to explain that music havent lost all of its importance. Music is suppose to be imformative and when you hear a song or a cd, you suppose to be able to at least know something about that person. Here is my Word For Word for the song "Out Tha Rap Game". This is something i wrote while ago, but i think that the picture it illustrates allows people to see what i was referring to.

"Out Tha Rap Game"

I seen my whole life flash before my eyes that night

Sold dope, packed guns, did all that right

Tha options i had wasnt all that bad

I mean, at least i had a mother in place of a dad

At least i had a lack in place of a jag

And i brag like "this tha best a nigga ever had"

Roof kinda rusty carpet kinda musty

But i rode four lanes like a boss nigga trust me

Felt hood rich couldnt nan nigga touch me

So indecisive couldnt nan nigga trust me

In middle school, ridiculed for tha wardrobes

A couple fake fubu's (no barcodes)

Starched down jeans as a freshman

Kissin cheerleaders where im from was a blessin

Them Wilson Road niggas were tha hardest

Niggas said what they wanted but we ran that regardless

Getting freaks, selling sweets out the five star

Slap boxing in tha hood taught me southpaw

I had a little incident on tha sidewalk

Yeah that butterfly knife made his side talk

10th Grade grew braids, check that hang time

Taking test and getting braided at tha same time

So many G's in my fam, i dont (own) have to fight

I guess you'll catch me in tha after life

Chorus: Ay im here now, money on my mind

Gotta give it to em now cause im running out of time

Yeah im out tha rap game, im back on my bs

Niggas call it real talk, homie i jus call it GS

I wrote this some time ago but this is the name of the mixtape as well "Out Tha Rap Game". Now let me share with you how God works. As you can see, i havent always been on his side. But through just that little i shared, he has kept me. This mixtape idea came because i was like "mayne i need to go back to the old me, and leave this radio music alone". I wanted to go back to where i was from in my music, give it to people like life gave it to me. Start to talk about the guns, and drugs and women. So i was sayin that i was "Out Tha Rap Game" and now just telling a story or many stories over a beat. To me this sounded like i was accomplishing something....NO. In the midst of this project coming out (which by the way havent but will with free download) God and i had a little run in. He showed me myself in all that i was doing and the stuff i was saying. Basically he challenged me to do something that would impact people in a positive way, to teach people and not inform them of. I was taken back because i always wanted to teach people in a sense, and this would be a great way to do it.

So to conclude what im saying if you havent gotten it yet. The bible says things are predestined, meaning certain things are suppose to happen. Look at the title of that song which is the exact name of the entire mixtape..."Out Tha Rap Game". God was taking me out of that before hand and i didnt even know it. I get goosebumps when i here tha chorus and its says "gotta give it to em now cause im running out of time". Running out of time, time for what you ask...well now i ask the same question. This stuff isnt a game, this is life. Mayne, i dont know how you view it but my life has been too serious not to acknowledge certain things. God is good even when your not good to yourself.

The funny thing is, that part of the chorus when it says "im back on my bs"...people would think i mean the obvious...but when that talk with God happened...that meant "Bible Study". Wow...smh...it gets deep...i promise you will know me in the end.
