And they offered me a million dollar deal

And had the check ready said I wouldn't be able to use my name

I was fighting my brother because man you shoulda took the million dollars

I said no what you think I'm worth

If this white man offer me a million dollars

I gotta be worth forty or fifty

Or ten or something

To being able to make forbes and come from the projects

You know top 40 under 40

Which they said couldn't be done had twenty records on the top

Billboard at one time for an independent company Black Owned company

You know going to the white lady's house where my grandmother lived at and say

Look you don't have to work here no more big mama

We got more money than the people on ST Charles Street

And I I took that anger and said I'mma put it into my music

I tell people all the time

If you don't understand my record

You don't understand me so this is not for you
