All my life I’ve been a lady bruiser, a wrong chooser, school refuser, drug abuser, born loser; clothes bummy, nose runny, it wasn’t funny

Step to this and get shanked up I knocked out so many teeth the tooth fairy went bankrupt

If you battle L, you picked the wrong head I smash mics like cornbread You can't kill me, I was born dead

I got the wild style, always been a foul child, My guns go boom-boom, and your guns go pow-pow.

They wanna know why, I'm so fly, a girl asked me for a ring and I put one around her whole eye I'm looking nothing like ya poppa, I wouldn't give a chick ten cents, to put cheese on a whopper.

Im so ahead of my time my parents havent met yet

Battles I lose none I make crews run I get fools done, got ten fingers but only use one

Some girls barely speak, but always askin' for a dollar.

I know you like the way I am freakin' it. I talk with slang and I'm never gonna stop speakin' it.

I'm gettin' stacks while you askin' people, 'Do you want some fries with that?'

Breakin' in cribs with a crowbar I wasn't poor, I was po', I couldn't afford the 'o-r'

Wit is educated insolence.

Then you know. You know what it's like to love someone like you love yourself and lose them.

Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart.

If you're short, don't wear extremely high heels. After a certain age, you shouldn't wear little girls' clothes. That's going against your nature.

We didn't do anything fancy. We just played blue-collar baseball.

Things that are real are given and received in silence.

[The producer told me:] "We can try one more record, and we'll see how that one does." Those records never did anything. My music never got mentioned. My color got mentioned.

I was in the courtroom prosecuting violent felonies for well over a decade.

The best substitute for money is ingenuity.

One time, hey, in high school this girl told me, hey, its not you, its me.. Ofcourse its you, you dang HEFFER!
