Still gettin mine, in the ""ONE"" ""NINE"" ""NINE"" ""NINE""
5
*sample cut and played in background*
6
[Talib Kweli]
7
Yo, just relax, take it easy slow down
8
I had this, I had this friend of mine
9
Who just, you know, he was movin too fast, yaknawimsayin?
10
I told him to slow down, he said the sun don't chill
11
I said, I said still, I said still, you gotta
12
Just appreciate life, sit back, don't let it fly right past you
13
No matter what go on I'm still gettin mine
14
No matter the year, no matter the place, no matter the time
15
[Common]
16
Check it, it's like I'm fightin for freedom, writin for freedom
17
These record company niggas I don't like when I see em
18
My ancestors, when I'm writin I see em, and talk wit em
19
Hopin in the promise land I can walk wit em
20
Shitted on, so many rappers it's like I'm in the stall wit em
21
Molest concepts, start rhythm, paid dues, bought wisdom
22
As legends fall my godmother answer heaven's call
23
Preachers' daughters get fucked in the reverand's hall
24
MC's reckless ?I ball? why y'all wanna go and do that?
25
Must've thought I was solo, the name just ain't the U-Ac
26
No mo', still together
27
Like in the ghetto photo wit one nigga in the chair
28
Holdin liquor in despair, gang signs in the air
29
I shine in spaces where time is just a glare
30
Hold the mic like a memory
31
Niggas say I'm nice wit metaphors but these are similes
32
Street ministry, my poetry's a penitentiary, track is visitation
33
Sentences is life, I'm like chief up in this demonstration
34
Still...
35
""Still gettin mine, in the"" ""ONE"" ""NINE"" ""NINE"" ""NINE""
36
*sample cut and played in background 4X*
37
[Sadat X]*in background during sample*
38
Check it out, everyday ha yeah
39
This how we gon' do it for y'all
40
Common Sense, Sadat X puttin something in your ear
41
Something for you to grab
42
For the whole world, yaknowimsayin, but it ain't free
43
It's a fee, check it out
44
You squirm wit this coughin, whippin cough
45
Six days of madness and you might throw me off
46
On this great ball of stress that they call the earth
47
I'ma show y'all in rhyme just how much shit I been through
48
And all the place I went to, always played the low
49
It's like a competition, this mission here I'm tellin you
50
Slip up and rhyme-ass niggas here is fellin you
51
Crash courses, slow down you can't learn that quick
52
Cuz I'm the dead eye, wit the red eye, from Chi to L-I
53
I thought y'all knew, every year I grew, I'm still growin
54
And in a year or two I hope my girl'll be showin
55
A male seed, praise God I name him Moses
56
I lead people I want him to, that's why I chose this
57
Now is the glass half-full or half-empty
58
Common, why they tempt me?
59
The king of the simply, bore in mic
60
I always stay on top cuz I give niggas what they like
61
I know y'all hate that why I feel I owe y'all everyday
62
If y'all hear it a thousand times, it's gon' be the same way
63
The 'Dat-Father, go farther, why bother
64
Now I'm a peaceful man, I don't want no stress
65
You know I'm still...
66
""Still gettin mine, in the"" ""ONE"" ""NINE"" ""NINE"" ""NINE""

[Common]
69
Yo yo, some get Range Rovers, some religion change-over
70
Angel on my main shoulder tellin me remain sober
71
Token nigga, game's over ain't no payola in freestyle
72
In battles, I'm warring/Warren like a G-Child
73
Searchin for the child in me, this style in me
74
This release is like the piece that's now in me
75
They tried to 'sassinate me god, like Martin on the bal-cony
76
Lyrically I put a hit on em, cuz I'm the style-Nitty
77
Catch a flick at the Liquid Kitty
78
Tryin to get a chick to kick it wit me till the tilt
79
Told her my Chamber's like Wilt
80
Built wit her for a sec, let her know I had respect
81
Less than a hour she was givin me neck, yo I'm still gettin mine...
82
""Still gettin mine, in the"" ""ONE"" ""NINE"" ""NINE"" ""NINE""
