Long Story Short Lyrics - Tronic - Black Milk

[** feat. Dwele:] 

[Verse 1: ~Black Milk~] 

Eight fourteen 1983 nigga im here* 

But let me fast forward about 17 years 

Take you back to the basics 

Back to the basement 

Hi Hat, snare drum, baseline, base kick 

Recording the karaoke, stereo the tape deck 

Having fun with it ain't worried about gettin paid yet 

Couple years past now i wanna get paid 

And stepped up as a Emcee, 

Stepped up to the MP 

Doing beat cd's gettin better bruh 

Listening to Pete Rock, Premo, Dilla on the regular 

Tellin ya, couldnt tell me nothing 

Til my ears determine 

Learning how to get my sound 

As good as theirs hell yea 

I'm about too add a litte group then 

Ten speed and brown shoe 

Lasted bout 2 years 

But its more info 

My kinfolk when on tour roady for Slum vill 

He got a beat cd in the hands of Baatin 

Didnt hear from til they got back to michigan 

Got a phone call *rings* What up doe? 

Come up to the studio, yo we wanna hear mo' 

Some i brought some mo tracks and they picked a few of those 

And made a little dough, then yo im out the door 

Is the story over? Not really 

Got Trinity, Dirty District, Detroit Deli 

I'm thinking how can we fail 

Seen a whole nother level of the game 

I done toured with D12 

Fans wildin out, hands raising in the pile 

And proof keep stage diving in the crowd 

I can do this i can get used to it, but 

Theres more facts so let me back track 

To the B-rack, BR Gunner shit 

Hoping we were running shit 

But it didnt work they way hey 

Young J and my nigga Fat Ray 

Dirty District 2 things seemed okay 

But it still aint right 

Things are moving slo mo 

So im thinkin bout goin doe lo 

So i had to go and go solo 

Doe low and im not feeling 

Having low doe or close to having no mo 

So im back to basics so im going back to the basement 

I'm trying to make it 

And im hope the crowd coming with me 

I'm grinding out then i made sound of the city 

I'm trying to show bruh's how this bruh do it 

Trying to keep my buzz up suited 

My buzz in the underground stupid 

Phone call from Fat Beats, who dis? 

Yo we trying to make you the newest 

Artist on the roster, possibility 

I'm bout too use this shit to make another outcome 

Outdone, popular demand came out 

And shout out to the fans thats been holdin me down 

Now travelling the world gotta get em 

Whats next? 

Me and Hex on a mission for the competition 

Caltroit shout, what up to my nigga Bishop 

Hold me down on the West coast laid out 

Told him good lookin out on the Dre' shout 

Hey now, niggas trying to go and get paid now 

Kill em on stage wow 

The spotlights not dimming 

Fat Ray got the set up 

Share the spotlight wit em 

Critics saying im one of the dopest on the beats 

Accolades in the page of the magazines 

And thats only a little of what ive been given 

Still can't believe that its only the beginning
