Man ‘O’ Man

[Verse 1]
Things kicked off, from 83, thats back in the day
11 month, the 8th day, the birth of NoTiOn bab-ay!
My mumma made me, & boy, im sharper than a razor blade
Im educated well, its just the way my parents raisin' me
Before my faded days, I had an curious vision
Sortin thru tapes wit Cee, givin' everythang a listen
Revealin these gifts on the microphone that i've been given
& speakin it from the heart, then express it in a written
It started wit a beat, the hi-hat's, & the snare
'lil bit of my style, here and there, but the flow's were mehh..,
Kept freein', & kepts to peein', on these other rappers..,
Thought it would go somewhere.. but yo, it never happened
& Cee, got it crackin', I hooked up some friends of mine
Spillin ill visions, dreams of, growin an Enterprise
I got mezmorized, caught up in my plannin's
Sit back, im like damn, this the game I wanna marry!, (16)
(It's My Turn's out), so now, no interfeerrin'
Our crew's perserveerin, audio engineerin, ha!
Gainin the knowledge, & surrounding the culture
World wide scales, im aimin', im finna get to close to
Tribute to the buildin' days, to the final process
I can't wait to spit these flows, that I dont even know yet
Delvin deeper in the game, when I spit this for you fam'
Forever you know it mayne! climb aboard & ride the train, (so get live!)

[Hook]
So put ya lighters up! pump it while you ridin the train'
Its for the people out there, tryin to get a higher learnin to ya brain
Leave it wit us, the soul hit ya crazy as fuck
Ya knoddin' ya head, like what, because the flow is nuts!
So put ya hands on up! ya high in it man
Its for the people out there, tryin to get a higher learnin to ya brain
Leave it wit us, the soul hit ya crazy as fuck
Ya knoddin' ya head, like what, & No-Tion is nuts!

[Verse 2]
They say its a beautiful thing, but its the usual dream
Coz you ain't, wintessin' nothin new happen in the scene
Im gettin off my ass, to get crackin for some cream
With that cream, skeemin to get some compliments for self esteem
Do it the smarter way, go & put ya heart away
The business is cold, but I know i'll take it far today
Howz that for starters hey.. so keep ya eye on me
No need to bother me, coz why would I be lyin b
No-one designin' me, im bein what I wanna to be
Thats all on me, even when im high off marijuana leaf
From takin baby steps, up towards a giant leap
There's much more dope in the next song, so in time you'll see
& yo this vibe's for free, so get all in
Neeq-eh on the beat, Notion far from borin', ahh
Into Soul & all types of stuff
So pump the music, keep on vibin wit us dawwwg!

[Hook]
So put ya lighters up! pump it while you ridin the train'
Its for the people out there, tryin to get a higher learnin to ya brain
Leave it wit us, the soul hit ya crazy as fuck
Ya knoddin' ya head, like what, because the flow is nuts!
So put ya hands on up! ya high in it man
Its for the people out there, tryin to get a higher learnin to ya brain
Leave it wit us, the soul hit ya crazy as fuck
Ya knoddin' ya head, like what, & No-Tion is nuts!
