4000 Stories - YONAS, XV

My notebook has 4000 stories

Now my crib has 4000 stories

I don’t brag but I do it for the glory and I guess that’s the moral of the story

Well okay

These days I sound a little cynical

For all the days I had holes in my clothes, I had to pin up those

Had dream girls, had to pin up those

Then I stopped carin', now I’m bangin' centerfolds

Damn, I worked a 9 to 5 and a 10 to 4

Back then I never had to force the pen to flow

Just the intricate dreams of a madman

Don Draper, whiskey bottle in the trash can

Damn, tried to market out a fast plan

Do I sell drugs or run a tax scam?

Aw fuck it I just rap man

And make my life story all about tryin' to unmask the masked man

Yeah, this is poetry in motion

This is seven hours nigga, this is the purest of devotion

I’ma make a statement make sure you niggas «e it

Don’t ever get the notion that I’ll ever stop tellin' my story

You’ve got a story to tell

4000 stories in you

You’ve got a story to tell

My notebook has 4000 stories

Now my crib has 4000 stories

I don’t brag but I do it for the glory and I guess that’s the moral of the story

Well okay

Yo, is it seven or eight albums?

I don’t know, they all great albums

Not to toot my own horn but I was born to make albums

When I listen to them I throw away albums

Damn, let’s take it back to the park for 'em

Let me take a second and break it apart for 'em

This is Michael Jordan crossin' Brian Russell at the line

And posin' for the picture just to show off the art for 'em

Yeah, I told you I’m the man

Since day one it’s been me and my fans

Hopped the spaceship, took a chance

And we good where ever we land

Word to the Six God, it’s 'God's Plan'

Ready for the lift off, I’m just sayin'

I’ma make statements, make sure you niggas «e it

Don’t ever get the notion that I’ll ever stop tellin' my story

You’ve got a story to tell

4000 stories in you

You’ve got a story to tell

Well okay

Vizzy

I used to wake up, catch the bus at 6:20

Shane been up, still tryin' to get money

14 years old already gettin' honeys

What is funny I was runnin' away from anyone who loved me

Jumpin' over fences goin' inches in the trenches

Bouncin' out the house, bustin' doors off the hinges

Little did I know that my flow had

Stop bingin' of them shows, nigga go out and get it now

Befo' MTV did dramas

This girl named Rebecca was the first teen mama

That I knew and she blew through the trauma

I hope she get to tell her story cause I know that she got one

Or two, cause I know I got a few

Checkin' on the items on the list I gotta do

When you come from the middle and you come up a little

Start ballin', don’t let 'em tell you, «Shut up and dribble.»

I’ma scribble my story

You’ve got a story to tell

4000 stories in you

You’ve got a story to tell

My notebook has 4000 stories

Now my crib has 4000 stories

I don’t brag but I do it for the glory and I guess that’s the moral of the story

Well okay
