The truth was blatant I ain't gonna lie, before I had my own style I was listening to Precious and duplicating For me, that's where the skippy style originally came from Now, there ain't an artist I can think of That I can't lyrically rain on I've come a long way From bedroom sex to Marlon, Jermaine and André Even though the route that was the fastest became the long way I'm still a legend, off and on the stage And I thank the Lord, songs of praise It could've been very different [Hook: Cashtastic] This is my audio biography Take you back to where it all started I'm talking 'bout before I wrote my first song I'm talking 'bout before I knew that I'd become an artist This is my audio biography And I'm talking before the shows came I'm talking 'bout how I got to where I am today From just a little known boy with a road name
