98 Lyrics by Joey Jordan

2016

[Hook: Joey Jordan & NanaBcool]
I hold weight like '88
I been great since '98
Yeah I'm young, Yeah I'm great
I hold weight like '88
I been great since '98
Yeah I'm young, Yeah I'm great
Oh whoa, we know
Tell em' all that we know
Daddy black as night time
Mama white as kilo's
I hold weight like '88
I been great since '98
I been great since '98
[Verse 1: Joey Jordan]
I was working, never played
You was delayed, NY train
I was on it tryna' get my way
Man I swear I'm so BK
Me and Lost was on the way
In the Shake Shack across from Barclay's
I was there, it really happened
Half my homies into trappin'
All my homies into stackin'
I told my granny I'm rappin'
She said "boy yo' ass was always rappin'"
She said "boy yo' ass is gon' go platinum"
I been great since '98
I stepped up in it, I ran for for the gold
I write these lyrics, I aim for ya' soul
You shootin' blanks like you don't got ammo
They wanna work and I think that its slow
Or maybe its not, they say I think I'm poppin' cause' I'm hot
I wrote this shit for the kids on the block
I wrote this shit for the kids where I stay
I wrote this shit for the ones in the way
They gon' be caught up in it like a hook
They want the freaky footage like I'm Ray
They want it all from me day to day
But I'm on a roll
Yea you would never see it take a toll
So I just keep it pushing like a road, yo
[Hook: Joey Jordan & NanaBcool]
I hold weight like '88
I been great since '98
Yeah I'm young, Yeah I'm great
I hold weight like '88
I been great since '98
Yeah I'm young, Yeah I'm great
Oh whoa, we know
Tell em' all that we know
Daddy black as night time
Mama white as kilo's
I hold weight like '88
I been great since '98
I been great since '98
[Verse 2: Joey Jordan]
Man y'all gotta' stop that
You up and you flop that
I'm up and I rock that
I ain't here to top that
I'm just really like that
I'm just really like that
I been great since '98
Kids telling me that it's a lotta' lotta' like me
This shit might not happen
I said that's unlikely
All that negativity like all the way behind me
You think you a legend in the making?
Bitch I might be (oh shit bitch I might be)
Shit I'm feelin' mighty
Have you ever seen yo' dream up close?
Shit that's a sight, b
Have you ever been all the way up inside yo' psyche?
Have you ever seen yo' future closer than you timed it?
Timed it, rhymed it, pause then rewind it
Realize what you want and now you on yo' way to find it
Everybody tellin' me I'm changing like the climates
I was born in '98 and I'm already timeless
[Hook: Joey Jordan & NanaBcool]
I hold weight like '88
I been great since '98
Yeah I'm young, Yeah I'm great
I hold weight like '88
I been great since '98
Yeah I'm young, Yeah I'm great
Oh whoa, we know
Tell em' all that we know
Daddy black as night time
Mama white as kilo's
I hold weight like '88
I been great since '98
I been great since '98
