(Verse 1) (Hero the Emcee)
Wanted to live good so I started living great/ wanted a full stomach so I had to fill the plate/ hoping I get to see my homies at the heaven gates/ but the fiends in my city man they never could relate/
Got dreams, bigger than B.I.G had/ but I’m not playing just saying need it bad/ never sad if I was meditate it in the lab/ press play and relax, bet the records gonna smash/
Back to back like drizzy on beef mode/ you can ask meek did his ass like a free throw/ he could say we dope and, that would bе no lie, I don’t need philly to tell me that Boston bе really fly/
Since, 76 plus thirty I’ve been buried/ 8 years old tryna make it in the bury/ world turned upside down it got scurry/ so I hurried, back to the fucking Roxbury/

(Verse 2) Hero The Emcee
Different day, another race, same marathon/ hard to come in first when you thinking bout your parents thoughts/ that you’ll never be enough and you’ve run soft/ how many records will it take until I’m at the top/
I could blame Sean, but I’m not mad at jay/ get your umbrellas out, they go be a patch of rain/ or a blizzard, ice cold winter/ came out a born sinner opposite of winner/
Time to get paid blow up like the world trade/ woah, that line hits difffent in today’s stage/ wish I was blind to the tricks of today’s trades/ hit em with the shade 45 like we on sway/ s
My 5 fingers and knuckles will leave a fine punch/ but my 5 fingers of death will leave a fine crunch/ got a wild hunch that my city on a journey/ so I hurried, back to the fucking Roxbury/

(Verse 3) (Hero The Emcee)
On the rise like, Lyfe from 41st/ I've been on the run like K when he laid the verse/ load the A-K let it spray till I’m in the Herse/ still feelings great it’s ok, man I’ve been in worse/
It’s a gift and a curse taking the weight/ whole Fucking crew gets turnt while I wait/ patiently plotting to blow like Nagasaki/ tally up the bodies it go be a hella party/
No bullshit, watch how the soul flips/ 3 decades that’s one hell of a full clip/ now it explodes similar to Hiroshima/ hero be the demeanor ain’t nobody be meaner/
I’m a top shelf demon, conceited couldn’t reach me/ flurries from hell tryna swallow up and eat me/ like some box curry shots curried so I hurried/ all the way back to the fucking to the fucking Roxbury/

Outro (guru cuts)
Word to god, something should give
In this life were living, you can't half step
Couldn't say a fly rhyme if there was one right under, there noses
Can you handle the whole weight?
