[Rapper Big Pooh]
Open my eyes to a new day, spreading my wings
Taking shots fo crown cause I'm going through things

Coattails getting heavy cause I'm living my dream
I'm trying to school these young ^!$$%z it ain't all what it seems
I still struggle just like you, and I still hustle just like you

But it just so happens that Big Pooh doing what he love to do
Get back on my work, cause I was penning on this piece last night
That'll drive these ^!$$%z berserk

Tiggalo hit me up, "Pooh its time to murk"
Throw on a pair of sweats, A-1's, white shirt
Headed back to the shop, back to the spot where the hits keep coming

Stack them up like bricks, you can call me the mason of %#@!
Foundation has been rock solid no replacing, ya dig?
No replacing my nig, on everything that I live

We gonna let this (*##$ ride to our trains collide
Or we fall off track, and ain't no bringing me back
And everything that go for you the same applies to Pat


[Hook]
Cause even though the birds ain't singin' and the sun ain't shinin'

It looks like a beautiful morning

[Phonte]

Each day's another chance to do the things I could've
Done the day before, but I didn't and I known I should've
So I say a prayer for the gone for gooders

Who left this world, then kiss my girl "good mornin', shuga"
Another sunrise, and as much as I would love
To roll over on you I cannot do it because

The good Lord I prayed to him
And he said, "^!$$%z is listening now"
So I better have something to say to 'em

So I'mma tell 'em how it went down, man
Doin' shows for free goin' outta town, man
The way I almost broke down and, got a 9 to 5

Cause I had more press than the soundscans
This is the price that I pay for this music
And every word that I write is a testament to it

And if I had to go back, I wouldn't change a thing
Wouldn't re-cut it, re-edit, or change a frame
'Cause it would not be fair, to turn my back on the struggle

When that exact same hustle got me here
Told ^!$$%z for the getup, we three the hard way
And Broadway's the only place you'll ever throw a set up

Speechless is all you'd be if we ever met up
I survived far to much now to ever let up, mother$#&@er


[Hook: repeat]
