It's Okay

[Verse] I used to think that things would be okay if Maybe I just pray and play my part I'd start to build a rapport With more MCs, but see it's not as Easy as it seems, it seems I need A little more practice My measures was drastic But what would you do If food eluded you and You were much too poor to afford A cordless phone to phone for help What else is left? I guess the Best solution is to pay your dues... I had hella problems Prob'ly gotta drop up outta college Knowledge is the key, the lock was in my wallet Call it a hunch, but once I bunched my plans together Severin' ties, creatin' new ones I knew somebody'd prob'ly hear what I had to say My patience payin' off, I'm off to better days But hey I promise I'll be back, but packed with platinum plaques I'll see you at the Grammys...
