Verse 1

What we have here

Is the alpha and the omega

I spit it

Bare witness to the greatest and the latest

They try to hate us

Witness the evolution of

it's wicked and it's decadent
Bb

Revolutions per minutes, every

time the record spin

Retribution for cynics,

D

It's looking like a Jackson Pollock painting,
Am
D

it's a mystery

Really should be brothers

united against the industry

The Africans diaspora scatter

at shattered history

The game missing me, rap

is so repetitive

Although I ain't your blood or your

cous', it's all relative

I got a gang of rhymes

And Tones' beats is banging
Bb

We moving through the streets

like we're slanging dimes
Am

It's magical,
Gm

how the track is so classical

The cats who got gassed up
Bb

in their sweats like Plaxico
D

I'm back from my sabbatical

Voice of the future, black radical
Bb

Keeping all the damages collateral
Am
Listening to instrumentals Thinking about

Gm


all the

things I've been through
Bb

The music is just a peek into my life,

it's a window
D

It's so high tech and it's also simple

Even if I'm knocked down, I

don't stay down

Even if I get down, I don't lay down

Hotter than the tar on this

empty playground

Hotter than the tar on this empty

playground
Verse 4
D

Hey yo, I'm taking all bets

and settling all debts

A giant leap for man

begins with a small step

From a sword to a set
Bb
Am

To my people on the picket line
Gm

Who's sicking of getting treated like them

aliens in District 9

I juxtapose my business
Bb
D

model with my spirit

What, I'm just supposed to keep you

comfortable with the lyrics?

I know the flow's disturbing

I know for certain just because

you know all about the artist

Don't mean you know the person

You don't know me

I run labels

These unstable rappers is so phony

I try to listen but they're boring

as missionary position

So I'm shitting on these niggas

like dysentery conditions
Gm

I'm sitting on the throne, you dreaming
D

that it's empty soon

Nobody feeling you,
Bb

you're screaming in an empty room (Holla!)
Am
Gm

The tree that fall in the forest,
Bb

nobody hearing you
D

Even though you fall the hardest

Don't get me started
Verse 5
Bb

Listening to

D

It's so high tech and it's also simple

Even if I'm knocked down, I

don't stay down

Even if I get down, I don't lay down

Hotter than the tar on this

empty playground

Hotter than the tar on this empty

playground
Verse 6
D

Yo, I built up my defenses

When I'm left to my devices,

time gets suspended

More than DMX's driver's license

My music's steady,

not affected by the higher prices

People having sex in the streets like

Dionysus

You know what my advice is?

Fuck my advice, live your life

Stop tripping like everything

amount to crisis

I make the sacrifices

My history is black as ice is

I don't think that I can trust

I never miss a beat, the

It takes my words, tries to twist

With sticky herb

It's easy 'cause I'm

ill with the wordplay
D

I still flip the bird, like Jeezy

Strip it down, now it's exposed

  • 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 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    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.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
