[Aryginal / Brooke Boykin-Chorus:]
In my headphones
Homie I bang a little bit of Big, little bit of Pac in there
In my headphones
Keep me a little Hov, little Face, little bit of Nas in there
In my headphones
Nucca I bang Slaughterhouse, Mos Def, Common, little Outcast too
I mean a little 40 Water, Busta Rhymes, DMX and Aryginal, just to name me a few
In my headphones
[Aryginal-Verse 1:]
They say us new rappers idolize, not I
I strategize on how to modify the top five
And ladder climb until I’m at the height of my God
I don’t fraternize with yall guys
See I remember being down
Daddy wasn’t round
Got depressed after a while
Started to drag me down
Headphones on banging Pac’s Dear Mama made me appreciate a strong woman who holds her family down
Going through a break-up
Shit, I would bang Jamie Fox and Mary J’s Love Changes every day bruh.
I enjoyed picking sides
Biggie or Pac, Jay-Z or Nas, 50 or Ja, beefing gave it a different vibe.
I would bang Vanilla Skies
For some music is music, but for me it’s therapeutic help to get me by.
And it’s still Bone Thugs Crossroads
every time my loved ones go.

[Aryginal-Verse 2:]
I’m talkin Dip Set, Rakim
Or Lauryn Hill and Nas, man that joint real
If I Ruled the World made my feel
Like I was working the cotton field and came across a few mill
True speal
Shout out T Pain and Drake yall
With the hook game but the goat gotta be Nate Dogg.
When I was stressed in my residence
I would bang Arrested Development
Like take me to another place
Tennessee or another State
Catch me going back to Cali banging B.I.G or LL Cool J
Or in my bedroom with a swell dame
Half naked, sweating, freaking to R. Kelly’s Twelve Play.
I’m talking bout high school dances
Grinding to Adina Howard’s “T-Shirt & Panties”
Let me reminisce
I was banging Shawna back with Infamous Syndicate
And for mine, she still one of the illest chicks spitting it.
