Cough Up A Lung Where I'm From

So Many People That I've Seen Can't Get Clean Water. It's A Crime.

I Came, I Saw, I Conquered From Record Sales To Sold Out Concerts.

You Could Name Practically Any Problem In The Hood And There'd Be A Rap Song For You.

I'm Gonna Fight, And I'm Gonna Make Something Out Of Nothing. That's Pretty Much The American Dream. So, For Me, The Realization That I Could Speak To People Like That Came First On A Small Scale. Then It Just Started Happening. I Started Having This Vibration.

I Would Run Into The Corner Store, The Bodega, And Just Grab A Paper Bag Or Buy Juice - Anything Just To Get A Paper Bag. And I'd Write The Words On The Paper Bag And Stuff These Ideas In My Pocket Until I Got Back. Then I Would Transfer Them Into The Notebook.
