"PATH TO GREATNESS"

Beat by Shadowville
Lyrics by Vinny B

:::::CHORUS:::::::::::
Why am I told to Go clean this messy pan While The commander in chief says Yes we can Time to go all out to and not Miss that shot The Path of greatness doesn't even promise me spot

:::::::::::VERSE1::::::::
:::::::::: It's Vinny B baby and I'm on back on track Right back in the fire but back in black Just hoping and dreamin I Wasn't skinny I Got more swagger than my Cousin vinny Tryin to fulfill my destiny of greatness Not one to fake this just tryin to make it And take it and bring it to a whole new level That's right baby! I am A bold true rebel I love my family No Luck when left them Find that chance and then Go fuckin Get Em Cuz opportunity comes once in a lifetime Everybody struggles, I try to fight mine Ass tards are running with Unethical looks Bastards follow as political crooks Yea nobody wants to be grand theft bound Then it must be your loss if I'm left on the ground
::::::::::VERSE2:::::::::
: The Negativity builds hunger for success Like a virus Kills Another whore obsessed While expectations increase jobs Requirement While pollution still kills our Environment Car companies cry cuz they can't Monopoly
While people lose jobs there goes the Economy Everyday I Studied through college to invest Even Saturday I Put my knowledge to the test Try to find the method for people to get fed Try to Spread bread stay out of people's death bed You Sit at home watchin malcom in the middle Being all lazy discovering money to swindle Participate in this world stay out of the darkness Reach for the stars, and get up off of your carcass Wake up Work hard for life's possessions No worthless liar stealing life's obsessions

:::::VERSE 3::::::::: You trying to reject me or trying to protect me That's bull fuckin shit I just want you to accept me I did all that I could to find that connection but it was all for nothing and I hate that rejection I'm no fool to try to look through or look past I got that power to take out a can of whoop ass Just look fast because there's so much I desire cuz i'm in that fire that you know that will inspire What I require is to go earn that money I'm Just so damn hungry, don't take anything from me It's not my fault this world is in a depression The economy is looking in the wrong direction
The Politics is what keeps me down to rap out Like a UFC fighter I'll make you tap-out There so many people with talent of big ranges The time is now, it's time for those big big changes

this is really good
a real step up from sweat on me
the lyrics are fly
you arent just one of theese dumb rappers
you know your shit
the meaning is there and thats what counts

but i have a question
now im not positive but i am pretty sure
that its you runnin through my page zero bombin shit
Idk why
but if it is you
please stop
I put just as much effort as you into theese tracks
and im proud of my work
and when people zero one of my submissions
not only is it harder for me to get recognized
BUT
it dampens my pride
and growin up where im growin up
pride is all i have

nice track though
showin alot of talent

I didn't make the beat. I made the lyrics. If you want the beat.. I could send it to you if you want.

Your Voice and Your Flow is corny yes

But it isnt about tryn to sound "Black" or "Gangster"

Its about Musical Flow

This song is great, and your lyrics are DAMN good and has an intellegent message of opinion and a few facts here and there.

i like it alot

but please work on the flow and delivry a bit man, seriously

what i disagree with is him givin you a "0"

the douche bag gave me a shitty score too

that was uncalled for

you should slap him :)

"ey man, lil somthing for u"

date: March 3, 2009

good lyrics bro, good message, i saw what you said to homeboy that gave you a 0. he's right on a certain level. and wrong at the same time. Yes be yourself no doubt dont be fake hell no, But Hip-hop cant be done by anybody and everybody no. if you have the sound yea, if not then maby your just a writer. im not knockin you im just throwin up some critic. i dont feel much emotion in the sound. it sounds like your reading out of a book. u kno? liek you have the lyrics right there at your face, practice them so much so that you dont need them infront of you. so when your spitin it you dont have to focus on paper, you can focus on the delivery. aight man be easy PEace
