What Now?

you ask me what now?
and i'll tell you
with no hesitation i'll speak my mind
i always search for ways to put my talents to work
in my own struggles i try to stay away from two kinds of people
the first is friends who befriend my talent and not me
and the second is kins who despise my talent
What now?
you ask me and i'll tel you
now that i've come to grips with what makes me
i won't rest until i free myself
raise myself into the man i see in my dreams
to fit the standards of the game
I am Hip hop
