[00:14.201]Listen
[00:15.186]Ave Maria, I hold on to my rosary
[00:17.082]We come and go like we leaves
[00:18.882]As it was written, shall it be done
[00:20.709]I was born in the Croix-des-Bouquets slums
[00:22.557]Light a candle, it's my birthday
[00:24.266]No velvet, just a dirt cake
[00:26.135]Cemetery was my play pen
[00:28.085]Come meet my imaginary friends
[00:29.898]My daddy, he Haitian like Basquiat father
[00:31.655]So every time I write, I'm painting a picture
[00:33.391]Some family took a boat to get to Brooklyn
[00:35.418]But they never made it, I cried me a ocean
[00:37.426]I went from boy to man overnight
[00:39.199]So hard to say goodbye on a flight
[00:41.034]Two twins look like God pillars
[00:42.879]First time, seen the skyscraper
[00:44.676]Tall woman with a big torch
[00:46.562]Welcome to Liberty, New York
[00:48.399]God city with the devil's alley
[00:49.959]Keep the crucifixion 'cause the demon on me
[00:52.122]Headed to the projects where we made it
[00:53.811]We don't gotta walk to the well
[00:55.034]Got a faucet, a toilet, a bed, and a sheet
[00:57.177]Crowd around a oven just for the heat
[00:59.454]Though life could be bittersweet
[01:01.222]I'm Kool G with The Symphony
[01:03.145]Best friend standing next to me
[01:04.990]Soul shift, watch him quantum leap
[01:06.872]Mikhael with the angels
[01:08.701]Deep sleep like he Michael
[01:10.632]Never knew he was mental till the Joker put one in De Niro, yeah
[01:14.187]Things change, stay the same
[01:16.003]Stand still as the Earth spins
[01:17.933]Cold world, codeine
[01:19.728]Prom queen, prom fiend
[01:21.598]She leans, party girl
[01:23.502]Wake up in the underworld
[01:25.057]In the City of Angels
[01:27.209]Demons, lovers
[01:29.049]Killers, sinners
[01:30.876]Tell me who you are
[01:41.948]Uh, uh
[01:50.428]Uh, Ave Maria, hold on to my rosary
[01:52.937]I'm keeping it close to me, working my sorcery
[01:55.355]I need love like Courtney, most importantly
[01:57.657]Santa Maria, got blood on my rosary
[01:59.649]But that's how it's supposed to be, birth of a culture
[02:01.601]I walk out of the delivery room with blood all over me
[02:04.465]I love you, Miss Cita, like Mother Theresa
[02:06.249]And every time I pray, I never forget her
[02:07.898]My daddy a heathen, he beat on my mama
[02:09.618]So every time I see her face, I kiss it
[02:11.279]They love you this evening, they hate you mañana
[02:13.034]Can't nothin' come between me and money but commas
[02:14.762]I don't need the drama, you don't need the violence
[02:16.612]Highway to Heaven, I'm calling the driver
[02:18.279]I went from boy to man overnight
[02:19.852]Now ask all these boys who the prototype
[02:21.535]I light up some wedding cake, smoke a slice
[02:23.466]Got all this wedding cake with no wife
[02:25.138]Light a candle, it's my birthday
[02:26.847]No party, it's a workday
[02:28.351]Gotta work harder, that's the cliché
[02:30.047]And there's no tomorrow, said that yesterday
[02:31.863]And though life can be bittersweet
[02:33.578]No company for the misery
[02:35.186]I just light me an L'y and cut on Bocelli
[02:37.016]Like take me straight to Sicily
[02:38.844]Feeling free like a bird, no words, Kenny G
[02:42.279]Never knew I was mental till I shot myself unaccidentally
[02:45.333]But things change, stay the same
[02:47.391]Stand still as the Earth spins
[02:49.146]Cold world, ice cream
[02:50.837]Prom queen, prom fiend
[02:52.565]She leans, party girl
[02:54.336]Wake up in the underworld
[02:55.819]In the City of Angels
[02:57.755]Demons, lovers
[02:59.320]Beginners, finishers
[03:01.198]Tell me who you are
