Story To Tell Lyrics


Niggas, bitches
Gather 'round
I got a story to tell
Hear this, hear this
Get the whole worldThe Swatch bred, thoroughbred, shockingly took two to the head
Knowledge me God, the shit I'm 'bout to holler is hard
From start, this little nigga had a Hell of a heart
His pops, bangin' that shit in his arms, broken
A young mind distorted emotions, is there an upside?
His brother got murdered up North by Milletas
Ma-ma, battlin', cancer, of the colon
At the tender age of thirteen, watchin' his world close inBlood damn near frozen, from a heart so cold
It ain't pumpin' out the love no mo', and I feel that
'Cause God when you really need it, where the love at?
That's why a lot of niggaz got more faith in they gat
Freeze that like a photo, take it with you and know
This lil' nigga 'bout to kill all comers for cash flow
His role model, the heat, 'cause it runs streets

His motto, 'Nobody eats but me!'Finally this young thug turned pro
Used to show love now he got nuttin' but hatred and foes
Five-double-O's, hoes so deep
He the type of nigga that got it and break down a key
Remember me, J to the A, R U L E baby
Smell the beef, it continued to uhh, give 'em Hell
Fill they bodies with shells and leave niggaz
With a story to tellListen up I got a story to tell
On the streets we got guns and drugs for sale
'Cause you hoes know the game that we play is real
Keep your mind on the money and your weapons concealedListen up I got a story to tell
I'm prayin' to God, know I'm goin' to hell
If it's out of my hands, I'll let time prevail
Listen up I got a story to tell
Listen up I got a story to tellShit, niggas motherfuckin' die for this shit we do
Hustle hard from city to city
From state to state
All my niggas
Let me holla at y'allSon in B'More, we scored more, than ever before
Copped the two door, six-double-O off a raw
Show no love for loss since big eight be that lucky
Number, we slammed eight of those in Kentucky
Kept the currency comin', mo', diamonds
New clothes L.A. hoes that'll ride us pronto
Once you, lived in luxury, you can't leave it
Find yourself, turnin' broke bitches into DivasCan you believe this? In Cleveland we cuttin' these niggaz creepin'
Tie 'em on every block, 'til we shut down shop
So keep your glock cocked, one in the head
Push the five series drop just in case we gotta spit and spread
The alibi be simply, we was in the Carribean
With two of our women friends sippin' Remy and Henny
From there we'll flow, to the Florida Keys and blow trees
Fuck a couple of hoes and spend some cheeseThat's how a boy's life is supposed to be
Make our way to N.O. 'cause we, 'bout it 'bout it
Then down to D.C. where they, cock it, pop it
Listen up life is nuttin' but the hot shit, from here to Wisconsin'
Y'all niggaz can get it constant
It ain't hard that's like pushin' dope in the 5th Ward
And just to get to God, I'll go through Hell
And leave the world with a story to tellListen up I got a story to tell
On the streets we got guns and drugs for sale
And you hoes know the game that we play is real
Keep your mind on the money and your weapons concealedListen up I got a story to tell
I'm prayin' to God, know I'm goin' to Hell
If it's out of my hands, I'll let time prevail
Listen up I got a story to tell
Listen up I got a story to tell

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Jeffrey Atkins (born February 29, 1976 in Queens, New York), better known by his stage name Ja Rule, is an American rapper, singer and actor signed to his own label Mpire Records. He began his career in the group Cash Money Click and released his debut solo album, Venni Vetti Vecci, in 1999. He has since released 2000's Rule 3:36, 2001's Pain Is Love, 2002's The Last Temptation, 2003's Blood in My Eye and 2004's R.U.L.E. He now plans to release his seventh studio album, Venni Vetti Vecci 2010, sometime later this year.

He is best-known for hits "Put It On Me", "Between Me And You", "Wonderful" and for being associated with Jay-Z as a part of The Murderers. Ja Rule has sold over 20 Million albums worldwide and has released six albums with one on the way. His best-selling albums are Pain Is Love and Rule 3:36. Ja Rule has beefed with rappers DMX, 50 Cent, The Game, Busta Rhymes, Dr. Dre, and Eminem.

Early life:

He attended Junior High School in Floral Park, New York, where he met his future wife Aisha Murray and they graduated in 1991. They attended Martin Van Buren High School together but he did not graduate. When Atkins was five years old, his sister died from respiratory problems. Growing up in a strict religious home, Atkin's family did not celebrate birthdays and Christmas, and as a child, was not allowed to listen to rap music. When he first heard it, he decided to be a rapper. He would sneak the music into his house and played it on his CD player when his mother wasn't around. Atkins is married to his high school sweetheart, Aisha Atkins née Murray.They have three children: Brittney (11), Jeffrey Junior (6) and Jordan (3).He and his family live in a mansion in New Jersey.

Rise to Fame:

At age 15, Atkins appeared with 0-1 and Chris Black as part of Cash Money Click. This would lead to him being signed by TVT Records in 1994. He would end up being heard by a young DJ who called himself DJ Irv, then later Irv Gotti. Gotti, was a friend of Jay-Z's and he was also a DJ for Def Jam Recordings. During the mid 90s his main priority was meeting Ja Rule. He wanted to sign Ja to his new label Murder Inc. Records. He wanted Ja because of his distinct deep voice. After Irv was able to sign Ja along with DMX and Jay-Z to Def Jam. He began to have an idea that they all work together. They formed a group named The Murderers. They recorded many songs together. Friction tore the group apart, DMX, a rapper that sounds very similar to Ja accused him of trying to steal his style with the deep voice, by saying that before the three were signed Ja tried to make his voice sound lighter but heard him embrace the deep voice and tried to imitate it. They had planned to release an album together, but this idea was scrapped and they all made appearances on their respective albums. Still, around this time, Ja Rule was still fairly unknown. Jay-Z, at the time a young star and new to Def Jam, was the most popular rapper in hip hop. Russell Simmons had the idea that in order to build hype around Ja Rule and capitalize on Jay's popularity that Ja Rule do a verse on Jay-Z's 1998 single Can I Get A..., which also featured Amil. Ja's performance of the verse made him a household name and he became an instant star and by the release of his album a year later he was one of Def Jam Recordings premier acts.
