Genesis Lyrics - Ne-yo

[Intro] 

In order for a man to know where he's going, he must first know where he's been. Respecting his past, honoring his present, thus creating his future. Genesis 

[Verse 1] 

Genesis, oh genesis, ay 

I know pain and I know pleasure 

High and low and everything in-between 

And through the madness of my life for whatever 

My music's always been there for me 

I'm the one they talk about 

My ego, my attitude 

Sage, why they gotta be so nasty? 

Why they gotta be so rude? 

They don't know about my life 

They don't know what I've been through 

But if you don't know, want to know 

Then let me show you

[Chorus] 

Welcome to my genesis, to where I started from 

How I became the man that I've become 

This is my genesis, back to where I started from 

Take it right back to the top cause I ain't done (my genesis) 

[Verse 2] 

When I was rolling round in my hood (genesis) 

Ay, young and up to no good (genesis) 

Streets was calling my name (genesis) 

And then that music came and saved my life, my life 

Oh, my inspiration, my muse 

Music made it all right, all right 

Hey, who are you that I can't lose 

[Outro] 

Welcome to my genesis, to where I started from 

How I became the man that I've become (oh) 

This is my genesis, back to where I started from 

Take it right back to the top, take it right back to the top, oh 

My genesis, back to where I started from 

How I came up, how I got my name up 

How I blew this game up 

My genesis, back to where I started from 

Take it right back to the top cause I ain't done now (genesis)
