1999
I came out of nowhere, I was like a rocket
Going to the moon, no one knew I was making beats
I was born in the Yo'
On the West Side looking fresh
1999, listening to Outcast on the East Side

I got persuaded that kids thought I was a badass
But they just thought I portrayed myself as a badass
I started wearing my hat backwards in 2000
I thought all the computers were supposed to crash

I crashed like Crash Bandicoot
And when I started calling myself Lil Risk
Ever since then, I've been known as Lil Risk
I might not be the shit
But I bet you can't name this beat from 1990's, bitch

I've been in the Yo' for so long, I remember playin ball
Idora Park, cars shows in Downtown
Downtown YMCA
Which basically was the shit, back in my time
Now kids just wanna play XBOX and waste time

I spent all my time at a place known as Stomping Grounds
I used to ride my bike around town
I jumped almost everything we could in this goddamn town
Now kids don't wanna play around

If they fall, they don't get up, they go cry to Mommy
Waah Waah
And then they get off the ground
And get a brand new XBOX game for putting a Band-Aid on

And back in the day if we fall we would get back up and do it again
Why do you think all these kids are so obese
Next thing you know, the whole world will be a reality show
Honey Boo Boo and Michelle Obama ruined it all
Snicker Doodles, Hershey's Kisses, might as well eat it all
