It was all a dream, as a teen I had ambitions to MC But the transition wasn't as simple as it seems To turn your life story into the simplest of things Intimate themes made for interesting sixteens And I was fifteen when I heard Rhyme Goes On By Eric B and Rakim, my mind grew numb I was in awe at how Rakim linked words His cadence, his pattern of speech, the beats merged And right then, something from within emerged Became TriloGGG and that's when life deterred I mean detoured, to take a path less traveled Bumpy roads ahead but I rose above the frazzle Way more gravel than the smooth road to college And fakes rose up like Manute Bol to block it But if it didn't work out, other doors would open Was intrigued with tech since my first Commodore was open Since Matthew Broderick war dialed with the modem I knew somehow that it would come back around But right now I'm flowing, began Club Ghetto Cincinnati's open off the song Heavy Metal Put us on your schedule, pencil us in Did show after show, released Livin' 'n Cin Took the city by storm But eventually the reign/rain ended And that's when Remy was born Took my passion for rapping and hacking computers Mashed them both together and made my past my future Now that I'm here it's clear my story's just begun I first guest appeared on the album Zero One It was summer '97 when it started coming down Went from treading in the mainstream to floating underground Loved the beats and sounds, never guessed I'd rap to them Then Canibus snatched crowns with heads attach to them That line made me question with battle rap intentions The vision had been shifted it was different not to mention I was still disconnected, looking at the trend Traded Bone Thugs N Harmony for Common with my friend Finally in '99 we found some other rappers I was downloading Pharoahe Monch from everyone on Napster Hi-Tek and Mood new exposure growing faster Mr. Dibbs held it down along with Animal Crackers It was Blueprint and Sage, tag them, add them to the factor Of memories before but you hear them in the after The music made emotions that these words could never capture My backyard was Scribble Jam, start another chapter Ruckus Man, Otherwise, ADM, and Prime RhymeFest and Juice had me losing my mind Never seen such passion, Brother Ali was a beast Eyedea and Unseen, may you both rest in peace Rewind Jedi Mind had the Heavenly Divine Non-Phixion, Black Helicopters in the sky Then they suggest my geography expanded The Heavy Hitters disc was a whole other planet It's funny looking back how I changed from year to year Still hip hop was constant, I held it near and dear J-Live's wit had me grinning ear to ear But I never would have known, owe it all to peer-to-peer When my AudioGalaxy was showing my the stars Windows rolled down, freestyling in my car Consistently at house parties rhyming every bar Rocking Masters of the Universe by Binary Star Through the trials and the triumphs, the balance is kept So while one man work hard, another man slept I, took a look off the edge of the ledge Then a quick sec to hedge all my bets then lept, huh Told myself to expect disappointment Cause my corporate experience at best was a disjointed mess Of old spaghetti code, low man on a totem pole Wanted to leave but I was typecast with petty roles Five years, no va-cay they had me by my balls My cubicle was like a cell with reinforced walls Did demos while working on support calls Woke up my inner rebel, all he needed was a cause Started saving up my paper to reduce the risk Went out on my first tour then I called it quits Less dough but more happy than I've ever been A full-time artist, and haven't looked back since
