    ...I still go the crib and see my ? on the corner
    Chillin with the pounds on they waist, gettin old
    Gettin round in the face and when I hang with them
    They ask me if "The Minstrel Show" means I'm ashamed of them
    Well - I can't say that I'm proud, but only sayin
    Can't say I'm allowed to judge, I'm just glad to see you
    Cause truth be told, if my records never sold
    And I wasn't raised this bold, ? I would probably be you
    I've been ? blessed with the gift to make music
    It took me all over the continent
    But still got boys on the block and fam, smokin rock
    So please, miss me with that conscious ?
    I spent many a sleepless night because of it
    Until I had to shake that ? off and reach the conclusion
    That every now and then you gotta ask yourself
    Do you really wanna win or just look good losin?
    It's no illusion, yes yes

    I dunno man, i still think its well written and production and usally done right. But i just dont feel it anymore. Just comes like watching a re run of a show you used to like, nothing special anymore.
    Only thing i could compare it to, would be other stuff like that at the time (blackstar,roots,whole lb extended family, etc) i pretty much know what to expect from all that stuff from the time.
    Ive grown out of hip hop. I still follow it, but 99% of the new music im too old for. i just cant understand why people think it's quality and the 2000's back pack rap is just boring now.
