C True Hollywood Stories Lyrics - Canibus

[Hook] 

True Hollywood Stories.. True Hollywood Story.. 

True Hollywood Story.. True Hollywood Story.. 

True Hollywood Story.. True Hollywood Story.. 

True Hollywood Story.. this is a True Hollywood Story.. 

[Canibus] 

Yo I vaguely remember 1974, when I was born 

Soon as the doctor cut my ambilical cord, he put me in my mother's arms 

I was cryin when she looked down at me 

She was smilin 'cause I guess she was happy (Coochie-coochie-coo!) 

She absolutely had no idea 

I was flowin 'cause it wasn't quite clear (You so cute!) 

She just kept ticklin me and ignorin me (Weeeee!)

My native home was Jamaica (No problems man) 

We moved to the states a few years later 

I had trouble fittin in (What did you say?) 

'cause I had a funny speech impediment 

People couldn't understand what I mean 

Meeda sata greedafa zeen (Sha oh) 

I used to wear cross-colored jeans 

Rasta belts with the red, gold, and green 

My man used to boost travel pocket for me

[Canibus] 

In '93 I met the Lost Boyz 

Without them, I wouldn't even have a voice 

I showed the world I was nice with the verbals 

That's how I got signed to Universal 

I released two albums, in all sold 9 hundred and 99 thousand 

Over the years, alotta people tryed to diss me 

'cause I grabbed a piece of hip-hop history 

Thank God that the drama didn't destroy me

I took a trip to England with Pac-Man 

Five months later we met Stan 

He was cool so we let him join the band 

And introduced him to the rest of the Horsemans 

Then I hooked up with this cat named Lou (Lou-minatti) 

And he was cool with C-4 too (plus two) 

Now the whole crew's on tour with me 

True Hollywood Stories 

[Hook] 

[Canibus] 

This is a story about beef 

Arrogance, lies, and deceit 

This is an independent release 

And that's why it's totally depended on the streets 

I ain't got no record label behind me 

Maybe nobody got the balls to sign me 

But it's cool 'cause soon they'll all be callin me 

This is a True Hollywood Story...
