[Cormega]  I ain't forget the hunger pangs  Stomach growlin like thunder and rain  Fame calmed the savage that I once became  My status wasn't established from trying to get a name  It came from serving addicts lead and automatics bang  My physical form grew stronger in a Riker's Island cage  Only as to weaken so many of my people  Passed away like leaves in the wind  Or kids blowing ashes from trays  I possess the ghetto essence of that which I portray  I'm an emotional chamelon, see how I adapt to pain  Before we enjoy the sun we must first get past the rain  A lyricist similiar to Donnie Hathaway  Clearly superior to many all I really lacked was fame  The +True Meaning+ that fact remains  My presence is felt like the Knicks when Patrick reigned  I'm living now, fuck back in the day  Does freedom have a meaning if you trapped in your ways  I'm Queensbridge most respected rapper  That ain't gone change...
