This song is dedicated to all the up an' comin' rappers Singers, hustlers, actors, whatever you may be, remember Without no struggle, you get no progress So keep grindin', keep on mashin' an' get yoursYou're nothin' far from comin' up, keep on Money's just a touch away, keep on So keep on grindin', don't give it up, keep on There'll always be another day, keep onAn' now I'm sittin' at the pad, teary eyed an' depressed Starvin' an' sufferin' from mental stress Now a true sinner, to the game, a beginner But hard to feel like a winner when you eat spreads for dinnerHit the streets, late night in the corner, star mission On the 211 mission, just to pay tuition For my kids, I got to grind an' develop street savvy Servin' stress 'cause I just ain't got enough to cop CaviBut I can't stop, I won't stop 'til I got it made Either build my clientele, get a job or learn a trade Like Hip Hop an' make enough to live good forever So I learned to write rhymes an' get my metaphors togetherThen I joined a rap crew with the homies on my street Sellin' underground tapes out the local swap meet Gettin' tighter on the mic as I worked day to day So now I lay down at night an' I hear voices say, "Mack"You're nothin' far from comin' up, keep on Money's just a touch away, keep on So keep on grindin', don't give it up, keep on There'll always be another day, keep onNow I'm new to the scene, [Incomprehensible] So like EPMD, could you 'Please Listen to My Demo'? I left the local crew, felt like I was the man In popular demand an' now ready for Sound ScanSo I searched for a deal with no luck, I kept rappin' Felt like it would take a miracle to make it all happen Marble said it was a test, "Mack don't do nuttin' wrong Just have faith in God an' keep your hustle goin' strongStay hopin', keep writin', don't quit, you're too close Remember good things come to those who want it most" So I never left the house without my rap book Thought I found a new crew but eventually got shookFirst they said I was cool but then started to doubt me Put me on the backburner an' just forgot all about me Partna said I wasn't fresh an' sent me on my way but you know what? As I was leavin', I could hear voices say, "Mack"You're nothin' far from comin' up, keep on Money's just a touch away, keep on So keep on grindin', don't give it up, keep on There'll always be another day, keep onNow the tables turned but I remember they used to clown me The hard work paid off an' luck finally found me So call every publication, Billboard an' the Editor An' tell 'em Mack's bein' signed by dude workin' on 'The Predator'I got the Midas touch, now everythin' be the bomb Hooked up with The Don, now made a few million I don't bang, I write the good rhymes, you know about mines Man, I'm the tightest MC, Ice Cube ever signedNow if it ain't the radio, it's a video shoot Livin' life in the limelight with a bank full of loot Now my crew is solid, shook the haters an' the leeches Runnin' full court at my house with our girls on the beachesPlus the violence is ceased, no more bi-coastal beef 'Cause now I get down with the North, South an' the East I reminisce on hard times, seem like yesterday But now Hoo Bangin' is official an' I remember they used to say, "Mack"You're nothin' far from comin' up, keep on Money's just a touch away, keep on So keep on grindin', don't give it up, keep on There'll always be another day, keep onMoney's just a touch, just a simple touch Money's just a touch away Money's just a touch, just a simple touch Money's just a touch away
Это интересно:Когда западное побережье впервые забралось на вершины рэп индустрии в середине 90-ых годов, Mack 10 наряду с его давним партнером Айс Кьюбом, являлся одним из самых многообещающих талантов побережья. Оба Лос-анджелесских рэппера были соавторами композиции "Foe Life", ошеломляющий хит Мак Тэна, вышедший на альбоме "Mack 10" в 1995 году. Год спустя они объединяются с WC в группу под названием... продолжение
