Jin Freestyle

check it yo
soon as i arrive they all lovin’ the native son
not the tribe or jungle brothers but they speak my native tongue
its ironic learn chinese was my first single
but out in HK i speak just enough to mingle
give me some time i’m brushin’ up on the lingo
still treated like a star with no relation to ringo
it’s easy to make ’em haters hard to make a fan
so I don’t hesitate to take a picture or to shake a hand
no need to wonder why they say i’m such a humble guy
never too full for a extra slice of humble pie
i know you hear the rumors well don’t believe none of ’em
they got a million questions let me answer every one of ’em
what happened with Ruff Ryders did I get dropped?
i’ll sum it up in 4 words: no I did not
i put out one album with them my first and last disc
april 7th make sure you go pick up The Last Kiss
“ah haaa!” my jada impression won’t pass the test
as for double r i wish them nothin’ but the best
since then i dropped 4 more cds
yep 3 in english 1 in chinese
my career slowed down a bit but it didn’t end
went from major to independent before it was a trend
i know what you’re thinkin’ isn’t that hustlin’ backwards
well at least now i can say i own all my masters
and i know what you’re gonna say next..
am i still battlin’? and who i should go against.
let me just say it’s definitely grindtime
but at this point battlin’ is just not on my mind
after watchin’ the vid i truly can say
dumbfoundead vs tantrum really blew me away
it’s a new day and age they do a different type battlin’
i can’t explain it’s not quite the same.. oh i’m just babblin’
some say im underrated some think im overrated
i respect all your opinions i just know i made it
on the topic of battlin’ lets take a stroll back
from 106 all the way to the old smack
i won 50G’s twice you need to stop trippin’
of course on occasions even i got caught slippin’
some say solomon came thru and took the win
it was pretty slick how he had all them lines endin’ with Jin
i lost to serius jones he lost to professor green
professor green lost to me so what does it all really mean
and that’s not a diss to either mc that’s real
i’m bein’ serious the movie was ill
much respect to everyone of ’em keepin’ the craft alive
i’m thinkin’ bout my future time to push the past aside
in the meantime i’m just an artist tryin’ to grow
will i ever battle again? hey you never know
i’m just proud of my accomplishments screw who’s first
i shot a video in fat beats rockin’ with Kool Herc
hiphop paid my bills on top of that it changed my life
so even if i switch jobs i’d still be rockin’ on the mic
im cool with havin’ my past exposed for all to see
cause the whole time I’ve been exactly who I been supposed to be
when it was my time to shine God as my witness
all i did was get on my grind mind my own business
i remember when it was like jin hatin season
rappers doin dis tracks for no apparent reason
i was new to the game and i got no advice
i suppose a lil fame make haters act cold as ice
who’s the one that took control of his own fate
the one that decided to filled up his own plate
the one that always treated everybody equal
the one that stepped up and held it down for his people
on top of that they know all i did was show love
hustled hard like maino yes i am all of the above
