P Double - In My Lifetime (Intro)

I’ve been- after a bag since I was nine, what a time
Before I knew how to rhyme I always knew how to grind
My moves paid my dues and my crew at the same time
Doing shit that made me cool, to the kids at school was the guy
I used to come through Monday morning on a high
Cause the night before I performed for like 20,000 Live
Paint dye in my hair still, detention I’ll be fine
Ain’t understand my potential, a disciplinary problem
So I chose not to pay attention, let attention pay me
And chill with NBA players dog how could you blame me?
Was a kid next to Kidd at the height of his career
I've seen VC3‘s clear weekly here, yeah
Every home game signing autographs before it
It made me feel important and they were paying me for it
Man nobody else’s story is quite like mine
That's why I wanna share with y’all what I’ve seen in my lifetime yeah

Uh, Kingsroad, yeah (Y’all with me?)

I remember meeting Hov in 06 like oh shit
And didn’t even know the impact of a Hov hit
Must have been around the time he was coming out of retirement
And I was in the hallway just standing there, was eyeing him
Walking past our dressing room, he dapped me up and kept it moving
Looking back now thinking how much I respect his music
That shit was crazy, didn’t hit me as a baby
But now that I grew up, I’m like Yup that was Jay-Z
Then I was only Pete, just the captain of the team,
Running practice with the team, before the game behind the scenes
Once they called a timeout it was our time to lead
On the court, on the screen, time to make these people scream
And they’d applaud as we run out, getting set, ready to eat
Ready to kill this shit that we practiced all week
In our spots, the music started, let me set up the scene
The hard knock life keys opened up our routine
“Take the baseline out”, I turn around and I see
Hov and B in the celebrity seats staring at me
Damn what a dream, dancing in front of them swear I came off the court like can we do it again
Man I don’t know nobody with a story like mine
That’s why I wanna share with y’all what I've seen in my lifetime, Yeah
What I've seen in my lifetime, I wanna share with y’all what I’ve seen in my lifetime

(Kingsroad)
