"From The Horses Mouth" lyrics

"From The Horses Mouth"

Man, I told you what happened already, listen

You take a cat from the West and you throw him deep in the South
And let him marinate there before ever seeking him out
Take him back to L.A. where he play in the streets for a while
Before he get knee-deep enough to sink his teeth in the ground
You wake him up one day with the hunger to read in his Bible
Put him in church every week, in every weekend revival
Give him one homie to walk with him and teach him and guide him
Now he walks with the Lord, even more so, he's a disciple
It's "The Blueprint 3" and he ride around, bangin'
Not really aware of what he ridin' 'round, singin'
Heard Illuminati rumors and he doesn't mind that
Hears Jay diss the Lord and he doesn't like that
So he did a little research and started inspectin'
To his surprise, he learned the dots were connectin'
Started backtrackin', listenin' to old records
And it seems Jiggaman's done a lot of disrespectin'
So he writes one verse, but he doesn't wanna diss him
So he sits on it 'cause he wants to be a Christian
Sees the video and says "Somebody's gotta get him"
And since nobody seems to want it with him, I'm in 'em
Collected my pictures, threw away The Blueprint
Made up my mind, I was really gon' do it
Knew that if I said it, I was gon' have to prove it
'Cause a lot of what I found sound downright stupid
Recorded in my room, and who knew that it would get hot?
The only one I sent it to was WorldStarHipHop
The buzz made me nervous, I ain't wanna be famous
Plus, as a ghostwriter, I just got my first placement
They didn't know my name, I didn't wanna say it
But then anybody could'a said they was me, playin'
Sent out a statement, they thought my name was Lavyss
I told 'em it was Bizzle, and now, there you have it

Yeah, haha, I didn't even plan on writin' about this
I just started going and that's what happened
Yeah, man, quit telling my story
Y'all don't know me, haha, Bizzle
