Lyrics
Rocking hand-me-down gear, it’s the year 96
Kids is making music but they ain’t invite Chris
Youngins making rhymes over beats like this
So jumped up in the cypher tryna get into the mix
Big kids rhyming, all improvising
All up in my mind is, “Yo! You gotta try this!”
They opened up a lane like a basketball game
But I dropped the ball a scurried off in shame
Mama said, if you wanna be great everyday you gotta
Give a little!
So I pulled out my pad & pen and started practicing, I’m gotta
Give a little!
After 4-5 weeks, I was rhyming when I speak, you know I gotta
Give a little!
I think I’m ready to roll! Come on! Let’s go! You know I’m tryna
Give a little!
I see all the kids gather all around in a circle
Two-weeks rehearsals made my flow thermal
Hollered at the big kids, “Look who it is!”
It’s that scruffy kid that had hid like a turtle did
Now I’m in the mix, here we go again!
Legging started shaking, you’d thought I was convulsing
Palms started sweating, y’all, if y’all ain’t noticed
The bottom half’s frozen, but the top half’s roasting
Game is on, respect of my name is on
My tongue is off, I’m tryna turn language on
I say a little bit, I gave a little bit
After this it all flipped like a movie script
And with just, ten minutes a day
I went from lame & shame and got the upgrade
A little practice a day turns good to great
Now we’re bout to do a show on the main-stage
Mama said, if you wanna be great everyday you gotta
Give a little!
So I pulled out the pad & pen and started practicing, I gotta
Give a little!
After 4-5 weeks, I was rhyming when I speak, you know I gotta
Give a little!
I think I’m ready to roll! Come on! Let’s go! You know we gotta
Give a little!
Ooooh!
Come on!
Come on!
Give a little!
So I pulled out the pad & pen and started practicing, we gotta
Give a little!
After 4-5 weeks, I was rhyming when I speak, you know I gotta
Give a little!
I think I’m ready to roll! Come on! Let’s go! You know we gotta
Give a little!
Come on!
Come on!
Ooooh!
Mama said, if you wanna be great everyday you gotta
Give a little!
So I pulled out the pad & pen and started practicing, I gotta
Give a little!
After 4-5 weeks, I was rhyming when I speak, you know we gotta
Give a little!
I think I’m ready to roll! Come on! Let’s go! You know we gotta
Give a little!
Come on!
Two times, two times!
Come one!
Ha!
Come on!
