    fume 
    vapors 

    Givin' 
    me 
    lip so 
    I continued 
    with 
    the caper 

    Cat 
    litter 
    had 
    me sniffin 

    Since 
    outside 
    the 
    palace 

    Eyes sicker 
    than 
    AIDS 

    Game 
    harder 
    than 
    a callous 

    Tried 
    to enter 
    in her shit 

    She had 
    locks 
    on 
    the session 

    Tellin 
    me 
    how 
    her last 
    man 

    Taught 
    her ass 
    a lesson 
    (damn) 

    Well, 
    I'm not 
    the mayor 

    I take 
    care 
    of my dimes 

    But I ex
    cluded 
    I had 
    nickels 

    Addin' 
    up to 
    her kind 
    (ha)

    Verse 3

    didn't 
    need 
    a 
    man 

    To make 
    her out for 
    a fool 

    Dig 
    it, miss, 

    my love 
    is credited 
    in 
    cupid 
    account 

    And if 
    you need 
    that extra 
    help, 

    I got 
    the extra 
    amount 

    Gigglin, 
    figurin' 
    I had 
    jokes 

    for 
    her humor 

    Then she 
    broke 
    out with 
    the words 

    About 
    knowin 
    all 
    the rumors 

    "See, 
    all 
    you niggas 
    rappin 

    be like 
    pedigree 
    dogs 

    Thinkin' 
    you 
    can have 
    me leashed 

    Around 
    your microphone 
    cord"

    'bout 
    her lit 
    me up 
    like July 

    And with 
    them onions 

    in 
    the 
    pants 

    I couldn't 
    help 
    but cry 

    Seemed 
    lost 
    in 
    the essence 

    But 
    I had 
    to find 
    my way 
    to take 

    Action 
    for 
    the digits 
    just 

    to set 
    up a 
    date 

    Thought 
    my shinin' 
    was 
    on 

    I had the 
    skirts 
    in the bag 

    Until 
    i took 
    a bit 
    of time 

    To peep 
    the price 
    on the tag 

    She 
    said 
    "I'm 
    that salt 
    and pepa 

    Who 
    like pushin 
    it 
    to sisters 

    You need 
    to get 
    to 
    walkin 
    with 
    it mister 

    I think 
    you betta 
    listen"

    good 
    lovin') 

    (Listen all

    the 
    kind 
    she 
    understands) 

    (Listen all 
    you fellas, 

    then you 
    won't 
    have to 
    worry 
    no no no) 

    (Listen all you 
    fellas, 

    you betta 
    listen) (you betta 
    listen) 

    We 
    Verse 5
    was 
    at some 
    outside 

    jam 
    one 
    Saturday 
    night 

    When 
    this pretty 
    ass girl 
    got 

    locked 
    in my 
    sight 

    She was 
    a ghetto 
    philosopher 

    Yeah 
    you know 
    the type 

    Thinkin' 
    Mary 
    J. 
    and Sade 

    under
    stood 
    her strife 

    Caught 
    me lookin', 

    "Yo 
    what's cookin?" 

    "Nothin' from 
    around 
    here 

    So 
    don't approach 
    or 
    hope 

    To be 
    the man 
    of the year" 

    I said 
    listen 
    deer 
    or rabbit 
    or 

    whatever the 
    hell you 
    be 

    I'm 
    not the 
    one to 
    embarrass 

    But 
    the 
    one to 
    emcee 

    I traveled 
    the world 
    quarters 

    on 
    my relation
    ships 

    Used 
    and abused 
    by 
    hoes 

    So my 
    royalty 
    stubs 

    But 
    above 
    all 

    I 
    brought 
    my daughter 
    into 
    this 
    earth 

    So 
    I understand 
    the need 

    Of women 
    feeling 
    of 
    worth 

    She glanced 
    deep in 
    my eyes 

    And said 
    "oh shit, 
    you're 
    ill 

    I 
    like 
    the way 
    your mind 

    Moves 
    around 
    at 
    will 

    Still, 
    let me 
    apologize 

    for soundin' 
    so sassy 

    But niggas 
    act 
    as if 
    my ass 

    Has 
    a 
    sign 
    that says harass 
    me" 

    Her name 
    was Gail 
    from 
    the union 
    of 
    Dale 

    I 
    made her remove 
    the shades 

    So 
    her eyes 
    could tell 
    me 
    the plan 

    Yo 
    where's 
    your man? 

    "Oh that 
    nigga's 
    past 
    tense 

    Painted 
    bruises 
    on 
    my face 

    Haven't 
    seen 
    him ever 
    since" 

    Gave 
    a pinch 
    to my 
    bottom 

    And started 
    rubbing 
    my back 

    She 
    said 
    "I bet 
    your ass 
    is darker 

    Than 
    a 
    Mobb Deep 
    track" 

    Only 
    one 
    way to 
    know 
    it 

    And I 
    was down 
    to show 
    it 

    So we 
    jet
    ted 
    back to 

    my crib 
    to set 
    it 

    She made 
    it known 

    "I've 
    owned 
    thoughts 
    of you 

    Since 
    that song 
    'meeny- meeny' 


    Can't believe 
    you're about 

    To be 
    all 
    up in 
    between 
    me" 

    Man, 
    the flag 
    was lowered 

    So 
    my wood 
    was raised 

    Followed 
    a shielding 
    of 
    my building 

    To pro
    tect 
    me from 
    the blaze 

    This granted 
    access 
    to 

    Southern 
    parts 
    of 
    her borders 

    Did 
    you have 
    her comin'? 

    Like 
    the 
    new 
    world 
    order 

    I 
    caught her 
    with the 
    right 
    combination 

    A good 
    combination 

    Keepin' 
    it in 
    her hard, 
    man 

    You betta 
    listen 

    Verse 6
    (Listen

    las,

    her 
    good 
    lovin') 

    (Listen all

    kind 
    she understands) 

    (Listen all

    fellas, 

    then 
    you

      "

      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 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.
