He was doin' some shows at centerline high I him to stop by and check us out sometime He looked at me I'm out my mind Shook his head like boys don't know how to rhyme
I out a line and rhymed birthday with first place And we both had the same rhymes that sound We was on the same shit that big Daddy shit With syllables sound combined From that day we was to ride Somehow we knew we'd meet somewhere down the line
