Here's my take on it.
Well once upon a time eccentric head shorty
Where people wore pijamas and went to bed early
There was a little boy, tight clout that might sprout
Tried to help lead black folk the right route
Delayed,
Negative voices, many, once in prison for unwise choices that he once
made
Divide the men, cops were sent inside for him
And seeing the good he had within him, let him out again
The life no longer for a big time baller, vic
Big Willies like Will Smith now call the kid (yo Rick yo Rick)
So check the gift, everything consecutive
That's what happens when you steer black folk away from
negative
Not to mention check the charts, killin' 'em
There'll be a man behind the Biz-Mark, Will, and Rick
Demise sent, can't mess with the mindset
