Enough of that, had to come back, same old cats, same old wack. I’m disgusted by the justice of the rapping, look around, what has happened? We lost track of fact and fiction, my intuition is y’alls suspicion. Y’all just fishing on wishes and dreams, money, cars and pie that creams. Punch lines out like Rocky and Drago, them college boys getting high off Prego Spaghetti, noodles, y’all just talking, obsessed with a chick, y’all get to stalking. Good girls gone wild, great girls gone bad, good dudes just die, good boy turned mad [Hook]: This is the real…(The real…the real…) That soul you can feel…(Can feel…can feel…) We are always real…(So real…so real…) This soul you can feel…(Can feel…can feel…) [Verse Two]: This one here is something deep, into your pockets, into your sleep.

We grown up. New kids on the block, 2-10 and up. Some new cats, y’all just playin, I’m hearing y’all but what y’all saying? Giberrish and static, oh, do we have it? Me and the bros just call you tragic Ain’t talkin stepbro, y’all talkin my flow, y’all out my door, ain’t round here no more.

[Intro]: Oh, I’m going in? Verse One: Don’t know me? I doubt you ever will. Is it cause I’m black, you think I’ma kill? Always keep it real, they should know the deal, you would think that they know with this mic, I steal. The spot is so chill like they living in an ice box, my homies all around [just] talking bout they own stocks. My flow is forever, O-rigi-nal, I’m thinking of a plan to master my style. To see MCs, wannabes, me overseas, one day famous, bring fans to their knees. Aw please, I’m a big dreamer, diabolical guy cause I’m a big schemer. Big timer, big man, big talker, big man swag cause I’m a big man walker. Go hard or go home, don’t you know? They ask about my rapping and they still don’t know. [Hook]: They. Still. Don’t Know! They ask about my rapping every time I come to show. From South to the ‘Burg to west side Downtown, I’m still the man Coppin’ Things Round Town They. Still. Don’t Know! I’m at the first step, four steps from the door. Shoutout to my brothers, shoutout to the bros, shoutout to those [ones] who still don’t know. [Verse Two]: This is what you waitin for, the big payback, no encore. Encore, I know you want more, put ya hands up until they get sore. Boy is back in time like Mike, beating suckas down like Mike. Jordan, Tyson, anyone, my power at the peak cause I see the sun. I see the sun rise, I see the fire in my eyes. The birth of the phoenix, the birth of the bird, what is really good? What’s the word? Is it cause he’s so insane? He’s so insane, you don’t know his name?! BDaMan Bryce DaRonn Foster. Big boss maaaan, big black monster! [Hook]: They. Still. Don’t Know!

I’m at the first step, four steps from the door. Shoutout to my brothers, shoutout to the bros, shoutout to those [ones] who still don’t know. [Verse Three]: Some MCs show no respect, show no support, earn no real check. The boy is wild and the boy is young, young like Hov, I spit this from my tongue. I’m wildin’ cause I’m young, like I’m Kid Cudi, chilling all alone, like Gorillaz are my buddy. Isn’t that funny? Or it is just depressing? Crush like earthquakes, now its oppression. Braggadocious, brag a lot, nah, not me. Confident, not cocky, yes, that’s me. Making out bars and they think I’m hurt, putting something in called time and work. Rapping so much, they call it a hobby, triangles, diamonds, they say Illuminati. They listen to the beat and ignore the flow, at the end of the day, they still don’t know. [Hook]: They. Still. Don’t Know! They ask about my rapping every time I come to show. From South to the ‘Burg to west side Downtown, I’m still the man Coppin’ Things Round Town They. Still. Don’t Know!

[Verse One]: I rise like the yeast of the beast, I just set down like the sun in the east. I’m bright in the mind, light on my feet, one of a kind, so unique. Ladies say I’m sweet, but I swear they think I’m ugly, the sun is up and beamin’, go ahead and mean mug me. Hug me, go ahead and just love me, I love the sun of the son of the sun who loves me. Sun’s up and I’m born again, go on and tell a friend. Tell a friend of a friend to look out a window, Inception, now you’re in limbo. Incognito, I’m that negro, your black hero, I’m no zero. The sun is up, it’s that hour, old school Snap, I got the power. [Hook]: That sun gives me the power, to just stand tall like towers. The sun just helps my faith, that sun just gives me grace. To be all that I be, helps me see what I see. Love the sun because I’m one, I love the sun cause I’m that son. [Verse Two]: I’m the son of my mom, Malinda, she nicer than a pack of Splenda I’m the son of my pop, Rob, he told me to be the cream of the crop. Was taught very well by both my parents, guess you wouldn’t know unless you met my parents. In my rhymes, you don’t hear my appearance? Like the sun, I’m not too transparent. I’m more clear than a bunch of static, we the S.O.S, me and B. Allen. It’s just tragic when the sun set down, it’s just tragic like Uptown. Sets down and chill somewhere, I’ll be there when the sun is there. I don’t play when I say, sun got me up on my feet today. [Hook]: That sun gives me the power, to just stand tall like towers. The sun just helps my faith, that sun just gives me grace. To be all that I be, helps me see what I see. Love the sun because I’m one, I love the sun cause I’m that son. Verse Three: How we living? Are we living good, good? Just getting back like I knew I would. I told y’all before, we brought it back, that soul, that jazz, that same attack. She want the son to be himself, I want the sun to stay good health. He want the son to be that man, I want the sun to understand Him and her don’t always agree, it ain’t rare for them to see. He wanted this, she wanted that, son’s in the middle like a welcome mat. Looking at the window just to the sun rise, wake up in the morning [just] to see the prize This son wants to be his own, this here son is gettin’ grown. [Hook]: That sun gives me the power, to just stand tall like towers. The sun just helps my faith, that sun just gives me grace. To be all that I be, helps me see what I see. Love the sun because I’m one, I love the sun cause I’m that son. [Hook]: That sun gives me the power, to just stand tall like towers. The sun just helps my faith, that sun just gives me grace. To be all that I be, helps me see what I see. Love the sun because I’m one, I love the sun cause I’m that son.

[Intro]: Ladies and gentlemen…we are inviting you…to something special, ya know? The big city with the bright lights…where everybody knows everybody, ha-ha! [Hook]: Skies are getting darker, and the sun has faded, I see the lights in here and I know that I have made it. You know just where you are when you see the Minne-ap, you know you feeling good, this is where your heart’s at. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. [Verse One]: Welcome to Minneapolis, 10,000 lakes, you feeling good? I’m feelin great! The lakes are blue, the flag is too, so call us up with the 612. What you gonna do in Minneap? Chill downtown with your backwards hat? Or chill Southside with the homies all day? Got a lot to do, go find your way. Go to the lake called No-Ko-Mis, take a walk and feel the bliss. Calhoun got that place Uptown, turns that frown right upside down. Harriet got that silent voice, once you see, you will rejoice. 10,000 lakes chillin’ here, the Minneapolis Atmosphere. [Hook]: Skies are getting darker, and the sun has faded, I see the lights in here and I know that I have made it. You know just where you are when you see the Minne-ap, you know you feeling good, this is where your heart’s at. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. [Verse Two]: Education is the key, U of M to MCTC. Get schooled on school and your knowledge, higher learning, we love college. We love chilling, we go downtown, see the arts, go above the ground. Theaters for the plays, Orpheum and the Guthrie way. A broadway mus-i-cal, for the soul, your inner child. Walker Art for the art you love, paint the picture like a dove. Pictures with the words you think, let em sink or draw with ink. Arts of the place got you chillin’, Minneapolis, what a feelin’. [Hook]: Skies are getting darker, and the sun has faded, I see the lights in here and I know that I have made it. You know just where you are when you see the Minne-ap, you know you feeling good, this is where your heart’s at. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. [Bridge]: Put your hands up for the city… Wave em side to side… Clap your hands for the city… And do it real loud! [Verse Three]: The city here is like a jungle, staying humble on the hustle. All the time it makes me wonder, how can we keep from going under? Under-over, bottom to the top, cream of the crop, never ever stop. Hopes and dreams in the big time city, getting down to the nitty-gritty. If I can make it here, I can make it there, I can make it just about anywhere. A wish and a dream, living on a prayer, singing in the rain like Fred Astaire. Singing, dancing, like we Diddy, romancing like we Biggie. Glorious, happy again, thank the lord and say “Amen” [Hook]: Skies are getting darker, and the sun has faded, I see the lights in here and I know that I have made it. You know just where you are when you see the Minne-ap, you know you feeling good, this is where your heart’s at. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights. Big city, bright lights, big city, bright lights.

[Intro (Ric Flair)]: "Well, what it tells me, Lance Russell - is that today (Woo!) - I've got to style and profile like never before!" [Verse One]: I'm stronger, go harder, I'm a monster, I conquer, dominate anything I want to. My passion, my skill, my focus, my hunger, my will of thrill while I slumber. In, out, while my eyes zoom in, shooting for the goal while I’m shooting for the win. Can’t nobody hold the pride down, all I hear is talking, you’re just a clown. Work harder than the average bear, get more sore in an average chair. Old school view of music, so you better use it or abuse it. If you use it, better do some justice, better do some peace, better bring a compass. Abuse it and it might be vicious, might hafta work it out, Lifetime Fitness. [Hook]: I got the Heart Of A Champion (Champion..)…Heart Of A Champion (Champion…)…Heart Of A Champion! (X2) [Verse Two]: See, messin' with the boy, you will quickly be destroyed, so just, stay out my way, I'm something you should avoid. I think it's time to show the world what I got, yeah, I think it's time I turned it up a notch. They still don’t know about me, don’t know how I walk, don’t know how I think, don’t know how I talk. You still don’t understand me? You don’t comprehend? We might be cool, but I’m not your friend. You say BDaMan, I was born Bryce Foster, always in the class, that’s the name on the roster. Irritation, frustration, that’s the sound of my life, vacation, motivation, day and night. So I...Stay friendly, driving a Bentley, I stay high class like Mr. Bentley. I was taught well by my Mom and Pops, y’all outta control like bottle tops. [Hook]: I got the Heart Of A Champion (Champion..)…Heart Of A Champion (Champion…)…Heart Of A Champion! (X2) [Verse Three]: Its how I operate, I dominate, knock'em down like dominoes, let’s conversate, concentrate, I'm a tell you all I know Go hard, everyday, that's the way you gotta go, they ask if I'm a stop I’mma say "Hell naw!" I told ya that I’ll never ever stop, till I’m back in Minneap, riding down my block. I’ll be here forever, any sort of weather, rain, snow, sleet, heat, no joking, Heath Ledger. So serious like British Soliders, tough like Rocky, call me boulder My eyes are on the prize this year, cause now that I’m old, I got new gear. Got my career, got my notch, got new fears, got this watch. I keep the watch in my pocket, yes, it’s my locket, Rest In Peace Grandpa Percy, got your watch in the pocket. [Hook]: I got the Heart Of A Champion (Champion..)…Heart Of A Champion (Champion…)…Heart Of A Champion! (X3) [Outro (Ric Flair)]: "But to be the man, you gotta beat the man! And I'm saying - right here! I'm...the...man! Woo! Be the man...be, be, be the man! Be the man...be, be, be the man!"
