Verse 2
Am

(Back up offa me, back up offa me)

I need space when I try to create

Yo, you need to just

Verse 3
Am

Ton', what is this?

I know he ain't talking,

this is grown- man business

Be your own man, stand on your own feet

I thought we was homies

But you comin' at me like

you don't know me

You think you do,

but you're probably wrong

I'm surrounded by more babies than Ashanti songs,

oh baby

I know you don't get it

Try to walk in my shoes,

I know you won't fit it

Just cause I know you and your flow,

too

There's more to it, you won't get it,

I don't owe you

You want Hi- Tek to do a record for you

So niggas is checking for you

Cut the bull, cause niggas

get respected for you

Get your own respect dude,

that ain't mean and evil

Ain't no crutches in my crew

My crew a crew of equals (yup)

Shit was cool when we was teenagers,

we grown men

You my people,

but I don't need you moanin' and groanin'

I can't feed you, I already got kids

How a nigga trying to regulate

some shit that's not his?

I ain't trying to sign,

I'm just an artist, nigga
E
Am

I'm just trying to rhyme and go the hardest,

nigga
Verse 4
Am

(Back up offa me, back up offa me)

Won't you get out my face,

better stay in your place

I'm fed up, how much can I take

Yo, you need to just

(Back up offa me, back up offa me)

I got money to make,

not a minute to waste

I need space when I try to create

Yo, you need to just

(Back up offa me)

See me in the Cut'

(Back up offa me)

Trying to roll up

(Back up offa me)

Or we can roll up

(Back up offa me)
Verse 5

Ay, yo, motherfucker, hold up
Am

Radio suckers never play me cause

I don't let them

They like a pimp only hoes sweat them

When I do a show,

I love to catch the lady's eye

Dodge the paparazzi,

I don't wanna see no lady die

Sports entertainment, academics,

business, or politics

The fine hoes swallow dicks

for dollars quick

Young broads all up in gangs

like the Young Lords

Jump forward, statutory rape,

now you done for

What, you thought that shorty

'bout to act a her age

Right now, somebody's

daughter is backstage

It's a master- slave relationship,

and guess who Toby

It's the white girl in Colorado,

and guess who Kobe

Tried to tell you not to fuck with

these debutantes

That's more Kobe beef than Japanese

restaurants

Don't need diseases or cases,
E

trying to catch nothing

And when they throwing pussy,
Am

best believe you catching something

Say "hi" to Tek
Verse 6
Am

(Back up offa me, back up offa me)

Won't you get out my face,

better stay in your place

I'm fed up, how much can I take

Yo, you need to just

(Back up offa me, back up offa me)

I got money to make,

not a minute to waste
E

I need space when I try to create
Am

Yo, you need to just

  • 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.
