[Verse 4]
[Em]Well go 'head and leave
[Am]The call heard 'round the world
from the wives of MC's
These cats is payin' more
that half a pound
My garment bag I snatch it down
Ain't got the state but we could
prob'ly run a blacker town
Scenarios like this is tear jerkers
For the modern MC ie. the blue
collar worker
'Cuz this thing called rhymin'
no different from coal minin'
We both on assignment to
unearth a diamond
When you start climbin'
And them eyes start shinin'
You be strugglin' and strivin'
And they think you prime-timin'
Maintain Maintain and keep silent make note
and observation
This confrontation
This is the daily operation
A concentration
Stay focused on my recitation
'Bout to reach my destination
with no pause or hesitation
Baby make the preperation
'cuz this ain't no recreation
This is Pro Ball!
And we lettin' you know y'all
At the show y'all
Doin' this for dough y'all
Get the phone call
And I'm ready to blow y'all
'Bout to go y'all
Been a pleasure to know y'all
And I'm lettin' you know that
Memories [Em]don't live[Am]

Wether things are good [C]or bad,

[Am]But God

[Verse 8]
willin' I'll be back home
To drop these heavy ass bags
up off my backbone
Around the world with
a cata[C#]log of r[Am]ap songs
My baby girl is walkin',
been away for that long
[F]But no [Am]you haven't well at least
that's how it seem to me
My home town is like a whole
different scenery
The old timers on the stoop
[C#]leaning leis[Am]urely
The new jacks up in the park
smokin' greenery
Easily taken for granted when you
up in it but its sweet scented
When you been down for a minute
Move around city limits
Break it down with the vintage
The innovative
Classical B-Boy image
image
Collect the winnin's
'Cause that's the reason
that we came here
This thing is not a game here
The fortune not the fame here
From New York to the Cakalaks
Cali in the Cadillacs
Chicago know we innovate
Infiltrate Virginia State
DC make me stimulate
Philly know we penetrate
[Am]Georgia make us generate
Let's set a date to [Am]get the
pace
They celebrate to my jam
s in foreign [Am]lands
Even your mans in Japan
know who I am
Minasan, make everybody out in Nip[Am]pon
[Am]Say [Am]ichiban, make yard man k[Am]now
where ya getti from [Am]??
Phenomenon,
'scuse me that's a phone call
Its the show y'all
Tryin' to get this dough y'all
'Bout to blow y'all
Been a pleasure [Am]to know y'all
And I'm [Am]lettin' you know
