    Ay 
    yo, 
    long 
    time 
    ago 
    before 

    most 
    men were 
    born 

    And 
    if 
    you took 
    form 
    and excelled 

    past 
    the norm 

    So what's 
    my simple 
    task 
    to 
    warn? 

    Blast 
    the horn 

    Turn 
    up the men, 
    women 
    and 
    children, 

    amass 
    a 
    swarm 

    Students 
    crash 
    the dorm, 

    move 
    men fast 
    and form 

    Like 

    Navy 

    SEALs 
    with 80 
    million 
    cash 
    in 
    arms 

    Half 
    -informed, 

    waitin' 
    to bring 
    the 
    wrath and 
    storm 

    Ain't 
    no worryin' 
    lot familiar, 

    my staff 
    is 
    sworn 

    to put 
    it on, 
    get 
    it gone, 
    usually, 

    with a song, 
    shit is 
    bond 

    like 
    the 
    words, 
    that's working 
    for 
    the thong, 

    cause 
    they so 
    tight 
    built 

    i 
    used to flow 
    like 
    milk, 

    back 
    in chapel 
    wearing 
    hammer 
    pins 
    and snow 
    white 
    silk 

    i 
    used 
    to be 
    in 
    my room, 
    staring 
    at 
    the wall, 

    thinking 
    of 
    some fire 
    rhymes 
    and writing 
    them 
    all 

    i'm 
    just 
    enlightening 
    y 
    'all, 

    on how 
    my writings 
    evolve 

    since 
    the shorty 
    had 
    him saying 
    yo, 

    i'm nice 
    with 
    a paw 

    so 
    first 
    things, 
    first 
    things, 

    act 
    like 
    you know 
    me homie 

    j 
    -s 
    -a 
    -n 
    -v 
    -s 
    speaking, 

    caught 
    you sleeping 

    act 
    like 
    you know 
    me homie, 
    j 
    -r 
    -a 
    -w 
    -l 
    -s 

    I'm 
    most 
    effective 
    when 
    I rap 
    at a 
    show 

    Make 
    the bitches 
    wild, 
    niggas 
    pull 
    and clap 

    at a 
    four 

    While 
    everybody 
    think 
    hip 
    -hop is 
    peace 

    Shit, 
    every show 
    I've been 
    to, there's 
    a brawl 

    and 
    gets rushed 
    by the 
    beast 

    Sometimes 
    bodies 
    covered 
    with 
    sheets 

    Young 
    guns 
    smothered 
    with heat 

    Just 
    to make 
    the others 
    retreat 

    In 
    the 80s 
    at 
    the 

    Fresh 

    Fest 

    Caps 
    were making 
    death 

    threats 
    after 
    the 
    show 

    Two 
    got stung 
    with 
    the best 

    Cap 
    square, 

    B 
    -I 
    -Z 
    -N, 
    niggas 

    O -G 
    -ing 

    Throwing 
    up 
    sets 
    and flags, 

    not 
    the place 
    to be 
    in, 
    see 

    Hip 
    -hop music 
    is like 
    a 
    release 

    from 
    a struggle 
    that 
    we fight 

    Every 
    day 
    against 
    the beast 

    from 
    north 
    side 
    to east 

    Down 
    south 
    and out 
    west, 
    I 
    doubt stress 

    Would 
    affect 
    any 
    child, 
    less 
    a 
    foul test 

    Got 
    our streets 
    like 
    the wild 
    west 

    We need 
    to take 

    America 
    to 
    trial, 
    yeah 

    So 
    first 
    things, 
    first 
    things 

    Act 
    like 
    you know 
    me, homie 

    J

    can't 
    caught 
    you 
    sleeping 

    Act

    Got 
    you 
    deep 
    in,

    -S, 
    freakin' 

    A 
    -O -J 
    -Sans, 
    that's 
    my word, 
    man 

    These 
    young 
    boys, 

    they 
    don't know 
    what hip 
    -hop really 
    is 

    But 
    check it 
    out, 

    Lil' 

    Catalyst 
    is 
    here 
    to show 

    them what 
    hip -hop 
    really is 

    We 
    here to 
    make it 
    better, 
    you know, 

    we 
    here 
    cause we 
    know 
    about the 
    roots 
    and the 
    essence 

    And 
    we tryin' 
    to teach, 

    man, that's 
    my 
    word 

    And 
    I tell 
    you, these 
    young boys, 

    man, they ain't 
    got 
    no 
    word 

    And 
    that's what 
    I wonder, 

    what is 
    a man 
    without 
    a 
    heart, 
    son? 

    Without 
    balls 
    in 
    the world, 

    a man 
    ain't nothin' 

    In 
    this world 
    of wicked 
    ways 
    that 

    our lives 
    are stuck 
    in 

    Anything 
    to 
    bring 
    the buck 
    in 

    Vinglorious 
    judgment, 

    snatch 
    a link 
    while 
    it's tuckin' 

    Man swore 
    he was 
    truckin', 

    so sure 
    he started 
    buckin' 

    Ran 
    out 
    of luck 
    when 
    he 
    ran 
    up on 
    him 

    Said, 
    run the 
    chain or 
    I'm bustin' 

    That type 
    of way 
    of life 
    will 

    lead to 
    self 
    -destruction 

    Self 
    -destruction, 
    self 
    -destruction 

    Cause 
    now 
    you're 
    the topic 
    someone 

    else 
    is discussin' 

    They plot 
    for 
    payback, 

    they know 
    where 
    you lay 
    at 

    Mad 
    like 
    white folks 
    after 
    they 

    let 
    the juice 
    loose 

    Where 
    they bring 
    the beef 
    or broccoli 

    without 
    the 
    couscous

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      "

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      "

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
