[Skit: Lil' D]
Hey, it's Lil' D, man
Y'all know man, that East Oakland legend, man, up out of East Oakland, man
AKA Lil Partner, man, you know what I mean
Just did 28 flat in the feds
Thanks to Obama, gave me a clemency
Now I'm out here, man, usin' my influence, man
To bring that unity back to the Bay, man
And I'm here, man, to do this intro for my youngin
The Philthy, Sem City, East Oakland legend
He's gonna put this album together, man, and represent this town to the fullest, man
And we need to start supportin' our youngins, man, and get behind 'em, man
Philthy been out here, man, I watched him
When he first start rappin' and he done got better with time
And he consistent and he stay workin'
So long as I'm out here, man, I'ma, I'ma try to support the young dudes, man, who out here
Makin' it happen and representing the Bay, carryin' the torch
My young homie Philthy is one of them guys, man
Love him or hate him, man
You got to respect the game, man, when you see them young dudes, man
Doin' what they do, man
So I know it's been a lot of hating goin' on, man
But for me, man, I'ma respect the game, man
If a dude out here doin' what he doin', makin' it happen
I'ma tell him I had to, man
And he ain't got to be where I'm from or from my block
But if he real and he keepin' it solid
Then he got, he got Lil Partner's support, man
And that's what we gotta do out here, man, in this Bay, man
We need a little bit more unity, man, and dudes gotta stop hatin' on each other, man
'Cause at the end of the day
We all we got out here, man, in this town, man
And long as we move together in unison
They gon' have to respect us, man, and they got to respect us in this music game, man
'Cause they, they stay stealin' our swi- swag and stealin' our beats, man
And our sounds, man, and gettin' credit for it, man
We gon' make them respect us
Because we gon' continue to put out quality music
And um, we gon', we gon' put this album out with Philthy
East Oakland Legend, we gon' rep this town
And we gon' put some bangers out here, man
And I'ma support my youngster, long as I'm out here, man
Doin' what I'm doin' and movin' 'round out here in this country, man
