Ten Stories Lyrics

MF Grimm - “Ten Stories”
[Emcee(s): MF Grimm]
[Producer(s): Mas Tycoon]
[Co-Producer: Quote7]

[Intro: Bashton the Invizabul Mang]
Finally, we see that that God has attendance
Mind over matter, body representation of
The soul until the soul overcomes the illusions
Of mortality (and love), love

[Hook 1 (Overlapped with Hook 2): MF Grimm] (x2)
On the path of guts and glory
Bullets blessed my flesh, and now it’s holy
My blood in a cup, you pour me
My body have ten stories

[Hook 2 (Overlapped with Hook 1): Sample from Fat Joe - “Success”]
...shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, for every shell that fell, for every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, for every shell that fell, for every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell
[Verse 1: MF Grimm]
Under fire, didn’t know it
Ears ringing, something started glowing
Lungs collapsed, ribs all broken
Lit car up with slugs, now it’s smoking
Bloody horror, leather seats soaking
God, you have to be joking
Jay’s hit, I got to save him
Bullets ricochet in my head, I can’t see him
Trying to grab his hand, I can’t feel him
Out the car, maybe I can drag him
I’m shot again, for air gasping
On my own blood I’m gagging
Open door, now I’m standing
Open fire at me, blazing
Shot me in back, I fell
Lord, did we deserve this Hell?

[Hook 1 (Overlapped with Hook 2): MF Grimm] (x2)
On the path of guts and glory
Bullets blessed my flesh, and now it’s holy
My blood in a cup, you pour me
My body have ten stories

[Hook 2 (Overlapped with Hook 1): Sample from Fat Joe - “Success”]
...shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, for every shell that fell, for every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, for every shell that fell, for every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell
[Verse 2: MF Grimm]
As I lay on floor, dying
Passed away, spirit flying
Afterlife made contact
Then God chose to pull me back
Got a glimpse of Heaven, not on list
Open eyes, back on Earth, pissed
Where I was was so bliss
Why he bring me back like this?
Surgery on spine, bullet cause cyst
Slim chance to survive, but I take risk
Made it through, now I’m healing
Even got back all my feelings
I should be dead. I’m living longer
As time go on, I get stronger
Lyrically, some might better spit it
But remember the difference: MF Grimm Reaper lived it

[Hook 1 (Overlapped with Hook 2): MF Grimm] (x2)
On the path of guts and glory
Bullets blessed my flesh, and now it’s holy
My blood in a cup, you pour me
My body have ten stories

[Hook 2 (Overlapped with Hook 1): Sample from Fat Joe - “Success”]
...shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, for every shell that fell, for every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, for every shell that fell, for every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell
[Verse 3: MF Grimm]
My own life is my content
Police had criminal intent
Rolex on arm was eighty thousand
Dollars disappeared—where our dough went?
Always plan for tomorrow
Meanwhile, live for the moment
It can be taken in an instant
The road to glory has torment
Vastness of Heaven and Hell’s the extent
Hearts get hardened like cement
It will turn you to a demon
So recognize your life is Hell-bent
Increase size, Jet Jaguar
Show the world you’re a Superstar
Lyrically, some might better spit it
But remember the difference: MF Grimm Reaper lived it

[Hook 1 (Overlapped with Hook 2): MF Grimm] (x2)
On the path of guts and glory
Bullets blessed my flesh, and now it’s holy
My blood in a cup, you pour me
My body have ten stories

[Hook 2 (Overlapped with Hook 1): Sample from Fat Joe - “Success”]
...shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, for every shell that fell, for every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell. For every
Shell that fell, for every shell that fell, for every
Shell that fell, there’s a story to tell
