[00:04.689]J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League
[00:17.289]Huh! This is special
[00:32.161]Extremely special
[00:47.662]When sixteen ain't enough
[00:49.853]It's funny because, it's been on my mind lately
[00:53.112]When sixteen ain't enough
[00:55.203]Having a dope beat, a dope idea
[00:57.760]Sixteen bars ain't enough!
[01:00.975]How the ****, can I squeeze my whole life into a sixteen-bar verse?
[01:06.966]You know, so many different levels
[01:09.729]When sixteen ain't enough
[01:11.677]To living your life and
[01:13.674]Depicting, with your wordplay (When sixteen ain't enough)
[01:17.141]Exactly what life means to you, and sixteen ain't enough
[01:23.401]I know y'all gonna feel me on this one
[01:27.292]You gotta feel me on this one, huh!
[01:32.172]It's funny how things change, funny how time fly
[01:35.110]More than my feet travel, the more that I feel fly
[01:37.815]More that I make now, the more that the chicks smile
[01:40.473]She call me a local nigga, I opened a Swiss account
[01:43.273]Eisenhower status, Etta James on the dash
[01:46.215]Smooth as John Coltrane cruising in the Cadillac
[01:48.788]Seville, feel my life on the real
[01:51.598]We the Last Poets so this is a world premiere
[01:54.388]Rolling like Mick Jagger, the women just getting badder
[01:57.096]All I see is the money, cream, Eric Clapton
[01:59.943]And all I wanted was one, sixteen ain't enough
[02:02.615]Talking that fast money, fifteen every month
[02:05.373]When your people labelled poor, that motivated me more
[02:08.122]Everything I ever wore was once worn before
[02:10.883]Roll with the punches now it's box office numbers
[02:13.738]Dressed like Sammy Davis, steaming my *********
[02:16.462]Double M G's, double M fees
[02:19.333]We in every hood, nigga: government cheese
[02:22.039]Yacht to Yachtmasters, Ol' Dirty Bastard
[02:24.842]Floor seat for the Heat, paper that I'm stackin'
[02:27.680]Better put away a penny for the rainy days
[02:30.701]Pick and roll, give and go, **** a fade away
[02:33.083]Living like Scottie Pippen, dribble riddles for vittles
[02:35.801]Started off with a scribble, now I'm flowing a river
[02:38.487]She say my heart cold, I'm naming my son December
[02:41.205]Whitney died night before the Grammys – damn, what a memory
[02:44.248]Trump Tower and I started with a 10 speed
[02:46.936]Born broke, had to use a nigga's instincts
[02:49.956]Now I get a hundred racks for the sixteen
[02:52.574]Waking up to turkey bacon and my thick queen
[02:55.531]Niggas hating, I'm just watching on the big screen
[02:58.068]Three Stacks on the beat and the kicks mean
[03:00.849]When sixteen ain't enough
[03:03.830]You know how sometimes you got so much to say but
[03:06.266]When sixteen ain't enough
[03:08.551]They on-, they only give you sixteen? Hehehe
[03:12.725]Man it's like, I mean, I got so much to say, you know
[03:17.788]The world has said so much to me
[03:20.081]And I just wanna give right back to 'em, you know?
[03:22.591]When sixteen ain't enough
[03:24.996]But, I only get sixteen, that's like a cage, you know?
[03:28.438]When sixteen ain't enough
[03:30.153]I really can't say what I wanna say, you know?
[03:33.216]It's just a glimpse, that's all
[03:34.350]Just one uh, one little single glimpse, just a page
[03:40.611]But I guess I'm defeating the purpose of doing all this talking, aight
[03:45.139]Summer '88, or was it '89?
[03:47.997]Or was it wintertime? Aw never mind
[03:50.814]I'm in my room, booming
[03:52.517]Drawin' LL Cool J album covers with Crayolas on construction paper
[03:56.106]I'm tryna **** my neighbor, I'm tryna hook my waves up
[03:58.968]I'm tryna pull my grades up, to get them saddle lace ups
[04:01.764]Before lil' Marc was Jacob, before them girls wore makeup
[04:04.517]Before my voice would break up, before we'd tour them shake clubs
[04:07.354]Before my mama wake up, before my crumbs would cake up
[04:09.943]Before they tell me they love me and we'll never break up
[04:12.773]Before the time she makes love to someone that I thought was my homeboy
[04:16.316]But boy, was I wrong now
[04:17.610]I don't budge, don't want much, just a roof and a porch
[04:20.315]And a Porsche, and a horse and unfortunately but of course
[04:23.782]An assortment of torches that scorches the skin
[04:26.580]When they enter, intruders whose tutors did
[04:29.126]A lousy job, how's he God if he lets Lucifer let loose on us?
[04:32.179]That noose on us won't loosen up but loose enough to juice us up
[04:35.104]Make us think we do so much and do it big
[04:37.175]Like they don't let us win, I can't pretend
[04:39.071]But I do admit, it feel good when the hood pseudo-celebrate
[04:42.141]Hence, why every time we dine we eat until our belly aches
[04:45.028]Then go grab the finest wine and drink it
[04:46.809]Like we know which grape and which region it came from
[04:48.907]As if we can name 'em; hint-hint—it ain't, um, Welch's
[04:51.818]Hell just fell three thousand more degrees cooler
[04:54.314]Y'all can't measure my worth
[04:55.501]But when you try, you'll need a ruler made by all the Greek gods
[04:58.253]Because the odds have always been stacked against me when back's against the wall
[05:02.511]I feel right at home, y'all sitting right at home
[05:04.992]All Kellygreen with envy while I'm jelly beans descending
[05:07.847]Into the palm of a child, looks up at mama and smile
[05:10.631]With such a devilish grin, like "Where the hell have you been?"
[05:13.375]She's yelling, "Selling’s a sin," well, so is telling young men
[05:16.217]That selling is a sin if you don’t offer new ways to win
[05:18.969]A dolphin gon' shake his fin, regardless if he gets in
[05:21.701]Or out of water, most important thing for him is to swim
[05:24.353]And Flipper didn’t hold his nose, so why shall I hold my tongue?
[05:27.188]I miss the days of old when one could hold his gal on his arm
[05:30.091]And not set off these alarms, when camera’s snap-snap-snap
[05:32.815]Return fire, pap-pap-pap pap pap-pap pap pap
[05:35.631]They’ll learn why, mere privacy, so essential
[05:37.797]They won't make no laws, I break their laws 'til they see out our window
[05:40.596]I take the fall to make them all treat human kind more gentle
[05:43.481]Forsake them all, I hate them all, don’t like em, don’t pretend to
[05:46.092]Yeah something tells me, we ain’t in Kansas anymore
[05:48.714]All that shit that used to be cool ain’t cool anymore
[05:51.618]All the women we were pursuing, now they want more
[05:54.321]And they deserve it all, don’t settle for what ain’t yours
[05:57.211]When sixteen ain't enough
[06:02.456]When sixteen ain't enough
[06:08.446]Ooh (Lord!) yeah (Oh Lord!)
[06:13.014]Aw yeah-eah-eah-eah-eah-eah-eah
[06:19.213]When sixteen ain't enough
[06:24.263]When sixteen ain't enough
[06:30.366]Ooh, yeah (When sixteen ain't enough)
[06:34.880]Aw yeah-eah-eah-eah-eah-eah-eah (When sixteen ain't enough)
[06:38.898]Breakdown, breakdown
[06:41.282]Does your mama know you see me? Does she know you're freaky?
[06:44.259]Does she ever wonder if it's 'bout ya I am speaking?
[06:46.991]Do you ever ponder where I'm at when you get sleepy?
[06:49.702]How the hell I'm gonna tell the youth don't be me? Yeah
[06:53.476]Hahahahah, hahahah, I love it
[07:03.242]Does your daddy think you perfect? Does he know for certain?
[07:06.349]Does he know how you act when you pull back all them curtains?
[07:09.099]Do he think I'm 2Pac 'cause I'm Black and put the words in?
[07:11.760]Does he know his daughter might have caught a real merman? Yeah
[07:16.167]Hahahah, it's funny because, because you're a changer (Huh!)
[07:19.977]But because we love you, we go that extra mile
[07:22.899]Break it down for 'em, André, huh!
[07:27.629]Next level, amazing
