[Intro]- Nightshift
We done and came up, ya feel me?.. The story is legend..Its anotha one..RJB and Nightshift, lets do it


[Verse#1]- RJB

Yeah, let me express how it was back then
Before I got where I am now
Robert to RJB
Listen Up

It was them days when I woke up, felt like I was Choked Up
Almost hid from the world cuz me and my girl Broke Up
I never thought that I would actually be happy wit my Life
and No Im not crazy, never thought of using the Knife
I just kept at it, living through Fights and Alcholics
My dad picking up Prostitutes or whatever u want to call it
Shit was sick to me and my Dad ain't really mean shit to me
Lived wit a bunch of girls, the only man throwing a fit was me
But how was a suppose to feel when they beat the shit out of me
Pulled me by my hair and was the only one to get hit out of three
Then I finally reached to be a Teen wit eyes ready to Bleed
Come down the Stairs to only catch my Dad as a Drug Fein
So I took the Pen and Pad as I way to Escape
Cuz I could only see my Life going to hell as its Fate
I turned at the Gate cuz I had to keep fighting and wait
like a car on an endless road wit no HeadLights or Breaks
And now look at me, Im finally here to officially make history
To make sure that imbedded in your minds, is the name RJB
went from hard struggles when my dad took the needles and Shot'em Up
Deserve respect cuz Im showing you how I came from the Bottom Up

[Verse#2]- Nightshift
We gonna make it, even if it means blastin some rounds
RJB and Nightshift alwayz holdin it down
Remember the day i started, it was way back when
We was young and we wanted out of the streets and cash to roll in
But now we back where we started and tha shit is gritty
Jay-Z was right, "There aint no love in the heart of the city"
Fake emcee's cant wait till the day i get popped out
But honestly i'd just be another rapper shot down
An adolescant mind still able to be crafted
But if you clay it the wrong way you'll getcha ass whooped
Started off like, violence was the remedy
Pops taught me that so i sat bak and watched him sip on hennessy
Dont even know how many break up letters i got
More in this past year than pac and 50' got shot
At night i stare in the sky and reminisce
If my pothetic life was meant to be reduced to this
Aint no more beef, no more glocks, aint no more pain
Cuz shit in the city limits Sanity is hard to maintain
So i gotta thank Katie Evans for helpin me see thru different angles
But before i retreat and recruit, i give a salute, to thug angelz

[Verse#3]- Nightshift
All i want out of this life is to in the end win
But im losing so as im writin this with a colt 45 under my chin
And then as the moon comes into the sky a shot hits the air
With the smoke swurlin why the hell do you even kare
It seems we made it all the way from the bottom up to somethin
When its compared to what we wish for it really aint nuttin
Imma make somethin of myself and no one is gon be stoppin me
No one toppin me, cuz we both know i got angelz watchin me
My X's hate me now every time i see em, they flip
My life's like a novel, plots, not to mention un countable twists
A doubtable wish but God knows there aint no stoppin us
Cuz honestly me and RJB know what its like to come from the bottom up
Picture a place where everyone puts in and gives the best they got
No matter what it is and they can do it without gettin popped
Seems like an eden, or so atleast its seemin
But when i look in the mirror, all I see is a demon
So im wonderin when my career will get bigger
It prolly wont since im sittin here with a gun under my neck wit my gurl ASKING me to pull the trigger
But i refuse to go out that way, keep the feelings concealed
The answers i been lookin for have finally beeen revealed
