Am I Worth You?

Yeah, yeah
Yeah
Ohh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

It's a pity that you're so dirty, worthy
Of some Southern hospital
See we them Northern boys with know's and how's
Nyc livin' ain't nothin' like it (ooh)
See how me and my peeps fit, we jigsaw
Sometimes I play big saw to cut the deal
And we keepin' them bills paid and meals in the mouths of many
A noble job if any
Money ain't everything but everything makes me want it
But won't dishonor my name so the claim throwers
Act like game on the dice on the mic device
Stay above middle class for life
Not an easy task but I've grown to love it
Dub it to tape, watch you whip a grin
While I speak to my mens about the world problems
And girl problems with no immediate way to solve 'em
But I'm on case

I make the best of the life I've been given
Making the most of the moment among the livin' and it feels good
Closer to being the man that I want to be
Do what I can 'cause I refuse to see
The best of luxury, God's been good to me (yeah, yeah)
Life, I ain't asking
Am I worthy of you? Of you (am I worthy of you?)
Am I worthy of you?

And pull them chords down
I got some things on these nine ounces to vent
We on a mission, y'all
Dug fresh dirt out the ground
Lookin' for the treasures in life
A bambino, picket fence around the residence
I wore these shackles here for thirteen years
But the only real slaves is the ones we record on
We afford off checks and God's blessin'
Tryin' to own a thousand island like we salad dressin'
Patience for the main course
Don't envy the position to remain boss
'Cause the man next to the man above the exec'
Don't give a damn if I papered yet
Sometimes it make me want to go and make a bet
I did away with Malcolm and released this stress by any means
These petty dreams will only get me stuck in a box
Doin' a dick shot in Oz (huh?)
Jerkin' off the Mary J but anyway I keep my head on

I make the best of the life I've been given
Making the most of the moment among the livin' and it feels good
Closer to being the man that I want to be
Do what I can 'cause I refuse to see
The best of luxury, God's been good to me
Life, I ain't asking
Am I worthy of you? Of you (am I worthy of you?)
Am I worthy of you?

I know people who tippy-toe through they own stompin' ground
Master not makin' a sound to stay safe
From the local star renaissance
And the response is usually the same
Wishin' it was like it used to be
None of that world is new to me
That's why we roll like eyes on a ghetto girl
Brushin' off some no-name claimin' she's his ghetto pearl
We into livin' beyond not livin' fads
Me and my comrades became dads young
Try to have fun amongst responsibilities
Like fillin' these accounts full
And got caught up at a party and bull'
Sometimes you gotta have the nerve to say some rhymes
Because some minds take offense
Try to make ya life tense but we still here (still here)
Still gainin' the love, still standin' above most

I make the best of the life I've been given
Making the most of the moment among the livin' and it feels good
Closer to being the man that I want to be
Do what I can 'cause I refuse to see
The best of luxury, God's been good to me (God's been good to me)
Life, I ain't asking
Am I worthy of you? Of you
Am I worthy of you?

I make the best of the life I've been given
Making the most of the moment among the livin' and it feels good
Closer to being the man that I want to be
Do what I can 'cause I refuse to see
The best of luxury, God's been good to me
Life, I ain't asking
Am I worthy of you? Of you
Am I worthy of you?
