Seven Years

When the song hit ya know
 Ya know what it mean for you and me
 This is my big chance
 This is what I've been waiting for ever since I come to town
 Nothing can stop me now ya know
 I don't have to worry anymore
 After this song hit for you and me
 One two, one two
 My name is Count Bass D and we get down like this you understand me
 This is how we do it
 You gotta understand
 You must

 First of all, thank you baby, for having our third seed
 But it is scary for me, because I'm running low on money
 I slave and strive to provide for the five of us
 Even if that means you take the car and I ride the bus
 You know the deal on this industry
 These rappers out here swerving down that they could beat me
 But my crew is my flesh and blood
 Not no corny street team running from a fair one
 People tell me that deep music is on the comeback
 Right now who can compete with all this nice talking gunk crap
 I wrestle night and day about decisions I have made
 I should have made better choices and avoided shame
 But high inside is a magnifying glass
 I can analyze all day but it won't change the past
 Even still you support me like a superstar
 I sport my wedding band in honor of how real you are
 I need to stop advertising you to people though
 Because I see them foul niggas dreaming about ya yo
 But when I get them I just do
 We can make it
 Committed for seven years baby and that's my statement
 ♪
 Pharoahe and Common got the light but we in the dark
 On how to keep this thing together like we feel we aren't
 I told DOOM about the baby and he praised the blessing
 While others cough and say you have to don't you learn your lesson
 I don't reply and try to say something fly
 People wonder why even though it's not their bi
 It's between me and u in front of everyone
 The ones who offer help and the one who offers none
 The ones who give us clothes the ones who turn their nose
 The ones who are in favor the ones who are apposed
 I, I gotta do it...

 We built this family who cares who tries to change it
 Committed for seven years baby and that's my statement
