[Intro]
And it go down...
And it go down...
Look the, look the real rap, goddamnit
Look the, look the real rap, goddamnit
Look the, look the real Zach, goddamnit
So we go down...
Memory lane and so we go down...
FIRE ON THAT SHIT, BOY!
[ACT I]
Look...
Once upon a time there was a boy...
Looking for the joy
Born up in Queens with a ploy
Take over the city like Troy
Sipping on LaCroix
Wanna get it done; make noise!
Mama always had big things for the fella
Either go to Columbia or you down in the cellar
Came a long way from Castlewellen
Catch ya breath, man I think that this’ll take a second
Nah! Whatchya doing?
Shit, you were only 16!
Man, you met the girl of ya dreams!
She was from Brooklyn, plans for a fam no cushion
Five years later she a queen
Living with the in laws, y’all manage
I mean, ya start from somewhere, but goddamnit
Ya had a son the way, you were trapped in the haze
And never once were you ever caught scamming
[ACT II]
That’s the cost of a summer; all work
No play, turned Jack into a dull boy
All day, ‘till he made it to the top of his class
Then he went from selling news to people kissing his ass
Started selling cable to the people in mass
Television revenue was bringing in cash
Plane ride up to LA, and back to Nash
Crazy how it happens in a flash!
So I gotta ask...
Can I live my life, goddamnit?
Can I live my life, goddamnit?
I don’t really wanna ask
Gotta make it right, goddamnit
Gotta make it right, goddamnit
Cause there always is a catch
Think I’m taking flight, goddamnit
Wish I wasn’t high, godammit
So I’m gonna a take a pass
I don’t wanna work the system
If it means fuck "family and fuck tradition"
[ACT III]
But I’m trapped in a web of my own existence
So I’ll get bought out, and get a new position
Merge my shit to another business
Be another chair in a boardroom prison
Wanna spend time in my goddamn kitchen
Lost time, gonna spend it with the children
Set a price, I bet it’s nice
It’s gotta be right and then I’m out, Time Warner listened
DAMN!
Gotta I be the man
Doing what I can
Gotta new watch on my hand
Gold Concord with a strap, all black
And a name on the back, it’s a plan
I became a grandad, gotta new born named Zach
He the same lad
18 years I’m a give back
All that courage all that extra fight
So he give the Gault name all it’s might
Hold him tight I look into his eyes
I saw me back in Queens and then I cried
Like Castlewellan, well I’m taking flight
Meet me there, we’ll make it paradise
2017: I’m taking flight
Give my name and so I give you life
All we ever really had was time…
Goddamnit!
[Outro]
We are beginning our boarding process...
All aboard to the aircraft!
I have to say all the doors are closed up...
And we got a flight time together of nine hours and forty-five minutes, with fairly favorable tail winds. It's optimistic...
We get away relatively proper here for Los Angeles...
If you wanna adjust your watches, and make that time difference
Weather should be fine for our arrival
Say about nine-thirty to ten o'clock local time in the morning...
So enjoy the flight, and I will speak with you in the morning!
And it go down...
And it go down...
Look the, look the real rap, goddamnit
Look the, look the real rap, goddamnit
Look the, look the real Zach, goddamnit
So we go down...
Memory lane and so we go down...
