Cormega - Ain’t Gone Change lyrics

I ain't forget the hunger pains
Stomach growlin like thunder and rain
Fame calmed the savage that I once became
My status wasn't established from trying
To get a name it came from serving addicts
Letting automatics bang
My physical form grew stronger in
A Riker's Island cage
Only as to weaken so many of my people
Passed away like leaves in the wind
Or kids blowing ashes from trays
I possess the ghetto essence of
That which I portray
I'm an emotional chamelon
See how I adapt to pain
Before we enjoy the sun we must
First get past the rain
A lyricist similiar to Donnie Hathaway
Clearly superior to many all I
Really lacked was fame
The +True Meaning+ that fact remains
My presence is felt like the
Knicks when Patrick reigned
I'm living now, fuck back in the day
Does freedom have a meaning if
You trapped in your ways
I'm Queensbridge most respected rapper
That ain't gone change
