God’s Shadow lyrics

[Intro] (Biggie Smalls)
I don't give a f*ck about you, I don't give a f*ck about you
[Vinnie Paz] Yeah
(Biggie Smalls) I don't give a f*ck about you
[Vinnie Paz] 1,2
(Biggie Smalls)
I don't give a f*ck about you
I'm not runnin'
I don't give a f*ck about you
[Vinnie Paz] Yeah
I don't give a f*ck about you
[Vinnie Paz] Yeah, look, yeah
(Biggie Smalls) I don't give a f*ck about you
I'm not runnin'

[Verse 1]
In '86 everyone was smokin' them OooWeez
I was in front of the mirror and tryna be Cool C
Me and Chico was inseperable then
We would day dream about bein' legends again
'87 came but really, pa, sh*t ain't changed
We was playin Just-Ice and absorbin' his pain
It's the middle of the crack era, I ain't complain
There was money everywhere, it was part of the game
I was tryna write rhymes but I knew they was wack
I was young and I was dumb and I knew it was that
I heard Steady B rhyme and I knew it was crack
See these records change everything, crucial to that
It's the end of the 80s that's when Chic moved to Cali
My father died too, it was loneliness around me
It was hard tryna put all of this sh*t in perspective
And the only thing I had was my records
[Hook]
I seen so many men get blast and pass away
I had to say bye, bye, bye
I had to say bye, bye, bye (I'm not runnin')
And all these pills I take can't make sh*t go away
I said nah, nah, nah
I had to say nah, nah, nah
(I'm not runnin')

[Verse 2]
The 90s came and I started drinkin' for the first time, smokin' for my first time, then I sniffed my first line
Chic came back from Cali and we was wildin'
13 bum rushin' Macy's, we was violent
The pen game started gettin' a little better
Drinkin' 40z outside no matter the weather
But I was shy about the rhymin' and sh*t
I was timid, no one knew about the rhymin' and sh*t
I kept it to myself, pa, that's what I resign to
Then Chic would get drunk like "Vinnie can outrhyme you"
And I ain't had no choice it was battle or b*tch
So I started choppin' heads and I channeled and missed
I battled on a L and I battled on the block
And I battled in a cell and I battled to the top
I battled a bunch of rappers you would know right now
And I chopped they f*ckin' heads but you won't find out
But that got old quick, I started makin' tapes
The tapes turned to records and the records turned to fate
But I'd still go back if I had that chance
It was simple then, I ain't have to do that dance
[Hook]
I seen so many men get blast and passed away
I had to say bye, bye, bye
I had to say bye, bye, bye (I'm not runnin')
And all these pills I take can't make sh*t go away
I say nah, nah, nah
I had to say nah, nah, nah
(I'm not runnin')

[Outro] (Biggie Smalls)
I don't give a f*ck about you, I don't give a f*ck about you
I'm not runnin'
I don't give a f*ck about you, I don't give a f*ck about you
I'm not runnin'
