Introspective - Cormega

I killed it with The Realness now I’m bringin' new life

Prestige is an illusion people tend to lose sight

I will always be Corey, youngest child of Dorothy

My brown eyes mirrors the pure ferocity

I slung the E, held my first heat with curiousity

Slept with it, rep with it, streets empower me

I came from curses, cuffs, and suede Pumas

To painting slums as visual as James Evans, Jr

I became a criminal when few though I wasn’t

My shot wounds, my birthmarks a thug injustice

Aim with the yanks

The quarters not working I question my purpose in life

It must be to write, son I’m very determined

A child of the ghetto like a very young Sherman

Bread not moldin, the chosen upholding

Unwritten laws of those behind walls closed in, picture me rollin

But don’t look at me differently on the strengh that I’m holdin

This is Mega you never heard my chain got stolen

I pitch like Randy Johnson

Dudes needed work I assist like Magic Johnson

Before rap my name was ringing in the projects

We took the block and props of every gram cooked

The rap game +A Change Gon' Come+ like Sam Cooke

And Big didn’t give the crown up and this means

His unwilling departure still makes him king

Cor-mega, will forever still born in Bedstuy, never ran never will

My life is very real a tribeam couldn’t measure my skill

Or True Meaning who wanna bring it, I’m right here…
