7:59 chords by Shawn Lov
Verse 1
E
What's up, party people?
This is Sean Love,
and right now I'm in the studio
with my man Sean Love.
Em
He's only like 11 years old,
but you gotta give the lyrics a chance.
Check this out, y 'all.
E
Because operate like a computer.
Em
I'm the lyricist, the vocalist,
E
and the distributor.
I'm gonna go off,
Em
so you better stay away.
E
You can't bite on my rhymes,
Em
I got some on my way.
E
And I stow away, whack em,
Em
cease, go away.
And if you're in the new school,
boy, roll away.
E
If you're gonna step to me,
C#m
yeah, hold on
Em
But if you got a title
E
so old it's growing cold on
Em
E
You better fold, son,
C#m
cause I'm number one
C
Yeah, man, I've been making records
C#m
since like 1986, you believe that?
C
I've been waiting for this a long time
Em
C
An d check this out, here's my story
It was 7 -59,
I can't believe
Em
C
that I got Prowler on the line
C#m
These nuff said kids is asking
C
if I wanna sign and drop a 12
And yo, I thought to myself,
Em
C
these assholes that
I'm working with
Ain't pressed a record
C#m
that would fall off the shelf
C
Em
Let alone fly, Kraler and Plutonic
C
got beats that'll make a microphone cry
C#m
Turn my headphones high,
C
so I can rap them correctly
Em
Rhymes are so nasty
C
that they even kinda sexy,
C#m
the industry can't affect me
C
E
Droppin' LPs is 9 -3, what up P?
C
He said, honestly,
C#m
Duff said droppin' is properly
Em
I started buggin' off the accent,
homie gotta store these cats
C
It's hip -hop with a passion,
C#m
New York just don't got no more
C
Em
Let me back this up a bit, it was 1986
C
I was only like 9 years old then,
C#m
but my flow was type hot
C
Thank God I burned that contract
from Vanilla Ice's label
I was backstage with some rappers
C#m
who had videos on cable
C
My demos in rotation,
Em
I still got tapes from 88
C
With me and King Sun,
C#m
freestylin' at the station
C
No bites, labels wasn't tryin' to sign,
no whites
C#m
Me and Brian Brody stayed in the studio
C
like every night in 1993
Finishing the first LP,
Em
C
buy my book on Amazon .com
C#m
For details on that story, anyway
C
We blazed the stage with Mob
E
Em
b and Big Pun
C
Nice and smooth and open up
C#m
to the roots in Pace 1
C
Tony D was on the beats,
Em
97 droppin' heat
C
And at the time that the God,
C#m
my second album was complete
C
Em
I was hands down the hottest white rapper
C
in the game with no deal
Em
C#m
And the Eminem came,
C
it was a setback
There ain't enough shine
for two crackers in the limelight
C#m
C
And so I slowly crept back with a classic
Never never land, never got the chance
My label's on some nonsense,
C#m
trying to make me dance
C
I was assed out,
Em
E
every night I drink until I pass out
C
Every song I wrote
C#m
sounded worse than the last
C
And yo the beats that I was making
was like a fart in a glass
Newports, every week smoking
C#m
C
a carton and a half
Watch my name slip slowly out
the game falling the fuck off
C#m
C
and then the phone call came
it was 759
I can't believe that I got prowl
on the line.
He snuffs it kids. I we back on track
I hope y 'all ready for some
classics in New York
Em
C
This is fire where y 'all staying
at it's mad shit
So go to P store and cop the shit come
back till we press some more
I got a whole career to buy
C#m
back look at me man
My face is what the Sun looks
like after the sky cracks
C
my verse is like a cactus in
C#m
the garden full of lilacs
C
I don't rap,
I rap my words around your soul
I rap my words around a commercial
C
MC and swallow him whole
On a 77 freight train, it's out of control
Em
C
I'm too far to show these cats love
C#m
So if you see these nuffs
C
and brothers
walkin' down the street
Then give em a hug,
C
you back bite em up here
C#m
C
I'm ice on the box, pull em a rose
Got my main man,
showin' love in the place
C
You know you can tear
C#m
yourself underground?
C
Yeah, I, you know, I've been relegated
to the underground
C
You can say that, okay I,
C#m
you know, to honest with you,
C
I hate to pop down, man
I, I just hate it,
Em
man, I'm not feelin' it at all
C
C#m
Yeah, I can un derstand where you're coming from,
exactly.
C
I wish I could dig up Pool Hurk, man,
C
and have him in his cowboy
boots
and his great big buckle.
Just, you know,
come with me in a posse, man,
and just stomp these young cats out,
man, I can't front.
