Never Let Me Down

Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Yo first I snatched the streets Then I snatched the charts First I had their ear Now I have their heart Rappers came and went I been here from the start I seen em put it together Watched them take it apart I seen the rovers roll up with ribbons I seen them repo'd, re-sold than re-driven So when I re-load he holds number 1 position When you hot, I'm hot and when your feets cold Mines is sizzlin It's plain to see Niggas can't fuck wit me Cuz I'ma be that nigga for life This is not an image This is God given This is hard living mixed with Crystal sippin This the most consistent Hov Give em the most hits you could fit inside a whole listen Nigga I'm home on this charts niggas is visitin It's Hov's position Jeff Gordon of rap I'm back to claim pole position holla at your boy Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down I get down for my Grandfather who took my momma Made her sit in that seat where white folks ain't want us to eat At the tender age of 6 she was arrested for the sit-ins With that in my blood I was born to be different And ni**as can't make it to ballots to choose leadership But we can make it to Jacob and to the dealership That's why I hear new music and I just don't be feelin it Racism still alive they just be concealin it But I know they don't want me in the damn club They even made me show ID to get inside of Sam's Club I done did dirt and went to church to get my hands scrubbed I swear I been baptized at least 3 or 4 times But in a land where ni**as praise Yukon's and gettin paid Its gonna take a lot more than coupons to get us saved Like it take a lot more than du-rags to get you waves Nothing as sad as that day my girl father passed away So I promise to Mr. Rainey I'm gonna marry your daughter And you know I gotta thank you for the way that she was brought up And I know that you was smilin when you seen the car I bought her And you sent tears from heaven when you seen my car get balled up But I can't complain what the accident did to my left eye... Cause look what the accident did to Left Eye First Aaliyah... now Romeo Must Die I know I got angels watchin me from the other side Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down We all here for a season on a particular path You don't need a curriculum to know that your part of the math Casted as delirious but I'm so damn serious That's why I expose my soul to the globe The world I'm tryin to make it better for these lil boys & girls I'm not just another individual My spirit is a part of this That's why it's spiritual But I get my hymns from him So its not me it's he that's lyrical I'm not a miracle I'm a heaven sent instrument My rythmatic regiment Navigates hypnotic notes for your soul and your mental That's why I'm instrumental Vibrations is what I'm into Yeah I need my loot by rent day But that ain't what gives me the heart of Kunta Kinte I'm trying to get us free like sin K I can't stop that's why I'm hot Determination, dedication, motivation I'm talkin to you and my many inspirations I say I can't let you or self down If I was on the highest cliff On the highest rift And you slipped off the side and clinched for your life For my grip I would never ever let u down And when these words are found Let it be known that god's penmanship has been signed with a language called love That's why my breath is felt by the death Why my words are heard and confined to the ears of the blind I too dream in color and in rhyme So I guess I'm one in a kind in a full house Cause whenever I open my heart, my soul or my mouth A touch of God reigns out Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Get up I get down Who else you know been hot this long Started from nothing but he got this strong Built the Roc from a pebble Peddled the roc before I met you Pedaled bikes got my nephews peddle bikes because they special Let you tell it man I'm fallin Well somebody must've caught him Cause every 4th quarter I like to Mike Jordan em Number 1 albums what, I got like four of em More of em on the way the 8th wonder on the way Clear the way I'm hear to stay Ya'll can save the chitter chat This and that dissin Jay Dissin Jay will get you Ma$ed When I start spittin them lyrics niggas get very religious 6 hail maries please father forgive us Young the arch bishop the pope John Paul Of ya'll niggas the way ya'll all Follow Jigga Hov's a living legend And I'll tell you why Everybody wanna be Hov and Hov's still alive
