Things I've Been Through Lyrics - The Last Kiss - Jadakiss

I just wanna thank y'all for takin' the time to listen 

I appreciate that 

Yo, regular TV to cable from bouncin' label to label 

Just tryin' to get the horse outta the stable 

Was once part of a dynasty, well, least I was tryin' to be 

Think it was the time in my life when I was findin' me 

Sittin' in the spot with the dimes 

Willin' to do anything just to be a Bad Boy at the time 

Then I rolled the dices, nah, the money didn't add up 

But just that whole experience, it was priceless 

No free rides to the bank 

On top of that was the untimely demise of Frank B.I. 

Then the 'No Way Out' tour, we was smokin' outdoor 

Made eighty stacks off Cee-Lo that without tour

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

Videotaped it all, I still watch it now 

I traveled the world, learned how to rock a crowd 

It ain't much but it beats poor things that I've been through 

Is all I can speak for 

I can only speak for the things that I've been through 

I can only speak for the things that I've been through 

Now I'm on Ruff Ryder, Interscope 

Same shit partnership, joint venture fifty, fifty, same split 

Jimmy put the money up, two singles off of 'We Are The Streets' 

Then after that seemed like he was done with us but it wasn't over yet 

Styles had a plan from the jump 

Which was to come out with my solo 

Next thing's a little better 

These the niggas that I been doin' it wit forever 

Next, so I'm like whatever 

Photos 

The first album dropped, promotion was hella 

Every stage I rocked, the performance was stella 

Had the whole world ready to ride or die for me 

And I wasn't platinum, I was just side money 

X was bringin' in the moollah 

I was in the hood in the kitchen wit the digital ruler 

I can't tell you 'bout the evil men do 

I can only speak for the things that I've been through 

I can only speak for the things that I've been through 

I can only speak for the things that I've been through 

As far as the LOX, we all fine, cellar is all wine 

Selfish for me to say Rocfella is all mine 

'Cause it ain't, I'm just a another employee that's on line 

Tryin' to get my act together and do it one more time 

Twenty one guns salute with all nines 

And I know it's on me to make sure that we all shine 

Gotta fall back, let the weed contact your mind 

Confined bullshit in any contract you sign 

But if you from the streets though, it's plenty of loop holes to eat yo' 

Once they let you in you're supposed to keep doe 

But I can't give you the formula, I'm on it though 

Expect the worst, the outcome is enormous, though 

Stay humble, still keep your heat for insurance though 

Things that I been through to get it weren't normal yo' 

Yeah, this is what my heart beats for 

Things that I've been through is all that I can speak for 

I can only speak for the things that I've been through 

I can only speak for the things that I've been through
