There were deals made and I was like 'I’ll do it.' I had to do a video for it too. Have you seen the video? They were trying to make me Pop. Now I see what they were trying to do. Back in the day, I was like 'I want to do this!.' It’s alright though." Track listing Notes denotes additional producer Credits and personnel Credits lifted from the liner notes of The Life.
