***LYRICS:
I’m standin’ on the corner waitin’ for the man when I see some dude come through. What’s that in his hand? That looks just like a microphone. “Hey you! Where you goin’ with that?” He turned to me and he said that he’s lookin’ for the G who’s gonna use it to rap. I said “Yo, that’s cool and all, but how you gonna know when you see?” That’s when he turned and said that he’d been lookin’ for me! So the man handed me the micro- phone and I left for home. As if it had been all along, I opened my mouth and the words just flowed out like the mic wrote it’s own song! I... I’ve got so much soul! And now I’m in control! Motherfucker, act like you know! I... I’ve got so much soul! And now I’m in control! Moth- erfucker, act like you know! Got home, I set the mic on the table. Felt my whole body vibrate. Wonderin' if I’m able. Then the songs just started to kind of write themselves and I knew right then I’d be fillin’ up record shop shelves. Sometimes, I still wonder where this rap thing will lead me. Will it continue to clothe me, house me, and feed me? Well, it’ll be all right. That is to say I’m quite sure that everything is gonna be OK just as long as I remember these words. You know I... I’ve got so much soul! And now I’m in control! Motherfucker, act like you know! I... I’ve got so much soul! And now I’m in control! “In the world of rap, there is no other like Sean Ward & the Realness. He told you before, he makes it timeless. So act like you know, motherfucker. He’s got so much soul.” I... I’ve got so much soul! And now I’m in control! Motherfucker, act like you know! I... I’ve got so much soul! And now I’m in control! Mother- fucker, act like you know. Whatcha know about it?
