What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Now, the end is near (Can you believe this shit Guru?)
2
So I face (I'm from the hood man) the final curtain
3
(No the real hood the hood, not the RAP hood)
4
(The real hood, like three pair of pants)
5
My friends, I'll say it clear (pair of sneakers)
6
(My moms is busting her ass) State my case
7
(Nigga I'm going to Japan tomorrow!) Which I'm certain
8
(You understand what I'm saying? Can you believe that?)
9
I lived a life that's full (They have people, waiting)
10
(At the airport like five days like I'm a beetle or something)
11
(That's really something!) And I traveled each, and every highway
12
(Seen the best of the best, the worst of the worst) and more
13
Much more than this (still here) I did it my way
14
Let's try this one
15
Uhh, yeah, gangsta nigga!
16
Put my hustle down, tore the game up nigga
17
Took your high score down, put my name up nigga
18
Tore the doors down 'til the Hall of Fame is Jigga
19
I did it my way (and more.. much more than this)
20
That's right, it's a beautiful thing man!
21
(I did it my way) I did it my way, Hovi baby!
22
Momma's youngest and strongest, survived summers like saunas
23
Mastered a corner like Deion in his uniform
24
Pop hurting assertive, flirted with death
25
Damn near murdered before my first album hit the shelf
26
Grandma's favorite, she could not understand
27
How there's people in the world who wouldn't want me as a neighbor
28
Has to explain to her, you think these folks want me in the penthouse
29
As a reminder that I make top paper?
30
Black entrepreneur, nobody did us no favors
31
Nobody gave us shit, we made us
32
The Rap Pack, I'm Sinatra, Dame's Sam Davis
33
Big's the smart one on the low like Dean Martin
34
We came in this game, not begging niggas pardon
35
Demanding y'all respect, hand over a check
36
And while y'all at it, hand over the jet
37
We the reason they ain't hand over Def Jam so quick
38
They new every year I was dropping new product
39
I was raisin the stock up, while building the Roc up
40
But that's alright, cause they knew they had to see us
41
When it was time for us to re-up, make us multi-million-ires
42
Yeah!
43
(And more, much more than this; I did it my way)
44
Yeah! "In My Lifetime"
45
I caught smaller cases, but I had capital
46
Hypocritic system let me right back at you
47
You better hope a rich rapper never attacks you
48
Not even that scratches you, 'specially if you black dude
49
They don't give a shit unless the accused just happen to rap
50
And they can look good by painting him as bad news
51
Cause in my past, I seen dudes get half of they views
52
Exposed to the curb and nobody said a word
53
So imagine how disturbed I was
54
When I seen how big they made my fight scene at the club
55
Let me explain exactly how this shit was
56
This nigga yo I scratched him, he went home without an aspirin
57
But it's cool cause he's back friends, and half-inning is over
58
It's in the past and I'm glad, now I'm back to being Hova
59
Me back with the chauffeur, laid back
60
Helicopter seat, feat inclined, shit feeling like a sofa
61
Helicopter meet me, Teta Vero take me over
62
Somewhere peaceful for the weekend now it's back to speaking of vultures
63
So the next time that page six approaches us
64
Here's a quote from Jay, nigga I did it my, way
