up all night

[Intro - Classified - talking](Ive been up all night)
Yeah (whoaaaa)
Mic check, one, two (whoaaaa)(Ive been up all night)
I go by the name of
Classified (whoaaa-ohh-ohh-oh)
If you dont know who
I am, listen (whoaaaa)[Verse 1 - Classified]
Uh, I was born on
December 13th (ha)
At 3: 23 by
Michael and
Kathy (whoaaaa) (yeah)
An ordinary child named after my grandpa
Donald Luke
Boyd, yeah the guy with the sampler (whoaaaa)'Hi, how you doin? Have we been introduced?' (ha)
Im the guy you thought would never make it in the group (whoaaaa) (nope)
But Ive been overcomin obstacles since
I was twoWhen my hearing was an issue and they filled my ears with tubes (whoaaaa)
I never talked til
I was three years old
Then I had a speech impediment that kept me in the cold (whoaaaa)
Talkin with a lisp,
I guess somethin like this (this)
Now I talk for a living, funny how life gets (whoaaaa)
I never drank or smoked * *** in high school,
I was a late bloomer
For me personally puberty could of came sooner (whoaaaa)
I always seemed to be a couple years behind
But Im comin to believe that everybody has a time (whoaaaa)[Chorus - Classified] - w/ ad libs(Ive been up all night)
Yeah, writin to the beat, tryin not to fall asleep(And I know Im gon get things right)
Tell the story of my life in the middle of the night(Ive been up all night)
Lookin back at how it was, reminiscin growin up(And Ive tryin look back at what Ive doneBut I know that Ive only just begun)[Verse 2 - Classified]
Uh, aiyyo, on
New Years,
I bought myself a
SUV (uh huh)
Then I got into a car crash in less than two weeks (whoaaaa) (haha)
I should have took my own advice, bought somethin cheap
Cause my car insurance doubled just to keep it on the street (whoaaaa)
And damn,
I hope I never fly again
I took a flight to
Texas and thought
I was dyin when (whoaaaa)
We dropped a thousand feet in five seconds or less
Now everytime
I get on a plane,
Im a nervous wreck (whoaaaa)
Back to my childhood, remember
Big Wheels?
When I was a young boy, toys were a big deal (whoaaaa) (ha)
We cruised big hills (man, just go for it! )
Smashed my head wide open though, still got the scar to show for it (whoaaaa) (yeah)
But I never broke a bone in my body
And its odd, cause my hobbies were skateboarding and hockey (whoaaaa)
I never had nobody sign my cast
But you never heard nobody ever rhyme like
Class (whoaaaa)[Chorus - Classified] - w/ ad libs(Ive been up all night)
Yeah, writin to the beat, tryin not to fall asleep(And I know Im gon get things right)
Tell the story of my life in the middle of the night(Ive been up all night, Ive been up all night)(And Ive tryin look back at what Ive doneBut I know that Ive only just begun)(Ohhh, Im on my knees)
I need to say somethin(From the world with a smile)(On my knees)
You hear that?(From the world with a smile)
You hearthat?
You hear that?[Verse 3 - Classified]
Yeah, the first time
I masturbated,
I thought
I needed help
It was dark in my room,
I thought
I was peein on myself (whoaaaa)(What the hell! )
Yeah, I never had the birds or the bees talk
I didnt know the joy that could come from my dirty thoughts (whoaaaa) (ha)
At age fifteen,
I started writin rhymes (uh huh)
But I think
I told this story many times (uh huh)
I like to believe theres more to me than
MCingBut I write to the beat and thats what
I end up being (whoaaaa)
This aint a song with a meaningful message
Its me introducin myself to you through my record (whoaaaa)
Im that tall, skinny white guy, rollin up the reefer
See ya, Classified, very nice to meet ya (whoaaaa)[Chorus - Classified] - w/ ad libs(Ive been up all night)
Yeah, writin to the beat, tryin not to fall asleep(And I know Im gon get things right)
Tell the story of my life in the middle of the night(Ive been up all night)
Lookin back at how it was, reminiscin growin up(And Ive tryin look back at what Ive doneBut I know that Ive only just begun)(Ohhh, Im on my knees)
I need to say somethin(From the world with a smile)(On my knees)
You hear that?(From the world with a smile)
You hear that?
You hear that?
