Street Stars

[Jimmy Donn]
"This one's dedicated to those who hated and said I wouldn't make it. Based on a true story, let me bring you back to the summer of '86, St. Paul Minnesota."

By the age of eleven I understood the reason for my soul
To caress a microphone and have total crowd control
Watch minds get blown [?] poetry spittin'
It's even disturbing to me to see the words I have written

But I'm not trying to fit in, I just wanna survive
I thank God every night for every day I'm alive
At night when I'm alone, it's when it's my time to shinе
I grab my pen and pad and go to war with my mind

The things that I find on my journey of thoughts
Givе meaning to every bloodshedding battle I've fought
And the lessons I'm taught when I dive too deep
Cause insomnia, sometimes my nights go by without sleep

I dive so fucking deep I have a panic attack
If it's not, then my mind is just imagining that
Examining that, makes people like us who we are
Forever on our quest of becoming the street star

We
Are
Street
Stars

'Cause nobody does it better than us (what?)
I said nobody does it better than us (come on)
Nobody does it better than us (oddballers)
I said nobody does it better than us

[Jimmy Donn]
How many MCs wanna step to me
Getting butterflies in your stomach standing next to me
Understand player, I wrote the recipe
So to shine right, that's just my destiny

I fuck your girl without using ecstasy
The biggest star, by far, in this galaxy
Let me introduce myself, yo, I'm Mr. E
I know at least have of you already heard of me

Actually, none of y'all even worry me
I be rocking this mic until they bury me
Calling me out, [?] blasphemy
Taking me out, that's just a fantasy

All these MCs have their Tyson disease
Not one original thought in their mind so they're biting me
Walking on the mic don't frighten me
Freestyle, man, I don't do nothing for free

We
Are

Bring in the bass line, the beat, some strings and the violin
And I'll be popping Vicodin like they was fucking vitamins
Alrighty then, let's get this party started
With your heads bobbing up and down like you're retarded

Pardon me for tryna make it to the top bro
And pardon me for tryna make the panties drop (hoo)
Pardon me for having hustle in the game
Pardon me, but by now you should recognize my name

It's the J-I-Double M-Y D-O-Double N
If I'm outside, then bitch, you better let me in
Don't make me put that .44 up against your chin
Make a hole so big, you never grin again

I rose with a certain clique, you might of heard of it
Jimmy Donn's a white boy doing dirty shit
When I roll in, don't even bother creepin'
No, tonight you'll be sleepin' where the worms be eatin'

[AV]
So you say that we ain't who we talking about?
Well listen to the words out my mouth
So sit back and contemplate, is this guy really real or is he fake?
But you won't say all the things on your mind when you approach me
So you can judge me every day, but music's my thing and Imma do it my way

We
Are
