"The Answer"

You may come from the streets of the hard knocks,
And you may know niggas who be runnin the block,
But when you got a dream that just don't stop,
You keep going and make sure you're the one on top,
For a basketball player you may be short,
But your always "the answer" when you're on the court,
People slept on your crossover until you got MJ,
They even tried to ban your move but you still make them pay,
The zone in the defense can't even hold you down,
You're too fast they get dizzy they spinnin round and round,
They called you a thug because of your clothes and braids,
They wanted you to be a poster boy suit and a fade,
But you lived though it no matter what they'd do,
They had to understand that they couldn't mold you,
You went from questions, to I3's, and Answer 5's,
You went from just playin ball to changin people's lives,
The best thing about you is that you made mistakes,
This seperates you from the large amount of fakes,
You got rookie of the year when you first got started,
And kept it going with scorin titles keepin the lane parted,
Then you turned around and got MVP,
You'll always be MVP always to me,
Sports casters used to call you the little guy because you're kinda short,
But now they call you "the Answer" when you're on the court.

Dedicated to the haters of A.I from A.I:
(even though he might be a jackass sometimes)

A hard life at risk, still waiting on a remedy
Too positive for negativity that’s steady running into me
Done had shots flown and thrown at my home,in my vicinity
From those who envy me, the ones that want a win from me
But my divinity, in the clouds aroused with no sound
To surround my indignanty and strengthen me
Causing serenity to enemies independently
All sins from within could do them in,
if they mention me
So be friends with me, cuz ain’t no ending me
I'm number one and #3, off the top and free of misery
Coming straight out of poverty

Little isn't it?
