    Bismillah ir Rahman ir Raheem

    If you can hear me ladies and gentlemen

    Then I'm very happy

    that you came here

    Ooh, ooh- wee

    That was for Brooklyn

    Ha ha, we get it every time

    You got me on? Ohh

    Shout out to all of my crew,

    East- West, North- South

    All the continent, Europe,

    all abroad international

    Bring it in, bring it in, bring it in, bring it in

    Come on, come on, come on, come on,

    come on, ouh, what's up?

    It's a lot of things goin' on

    y'all

    21st century is comin'

    20th century almost done

    A lot of things have changed

    A lot of things have not, mainly us

    We gon' get it together

    right? I believe that
    Verse 2
    D

    Listen, people be askin'

    me all the time

    "Yo, Mos, what's gettin' ready to

    happen with Hip- Hop?"

    (Where do you think Hip- Hop is goin'?)

    I tell em, "You know what's gonna
    A
    D

    happen with Hip- Hop?

    Whatever's happening with us"

    If we smoked out,
    A
    D

    Hip- Hop is gonna be smoked out

    If we doin' alright,

    Hip- Hop is gonna be doin' alright

    People talk about Hip- Hop like it's some

    giant livin' in the hillside
    Bb
    D

    Comin' down to visit the townspeople

    We are Hip- Hop

    Me, you, everybody, we are Hip- Hop

    So Hip- Hop is going where we going
    A
    D

    So the next time you ask yourself

    where Hip- Hop is going
    A
    D

    Ask yourself, "Where am

    I going? How am I doing?"

    'Til you get a clear idea

    So if Hip- Hop is about the people

    And the Hip- Hop won't get

    better until the people get better

    Then how do people

    get better? (Hmm)
    Verse 3
    D

    Well, from my understanding

    people get better
    A
    D

    When they start to understand that,

    they are valuable
    Bb

    And they not valuable because they got

    a whole lot of money
    D

    Or 'cause somebody,

    think they sexy

    But they valuable 'cause

    they been created by God

    And God, makes you valuable

    And whether or not you, recognize
    F#m

    that value is one thing
    D

    You got a lot of societies

    and governments

    Tryin' to be God,

    wishing that they were God

    They wanna create satellites
    C

    and cameras everywhere
    D

    And make you think they

    got the all- seeing eye

    Eh, I guess The Last Poets

    wasn't too far off

    When they said that certain

    people got a God Complex

    I believe it's true

    I don't get phased out by none of that,

    none of that

    Helicopters, the TV screens,

    the newscasters, the

    Satellite dishes they just wishing

    They can't really never do that

    When they tell me to fear they law
    F#m
    D

    When they tell me to try to

    Have some fret in my heart behind

    the things that they do

    This is what I think in my mind

    And this is what I say to them
    Verse 4

    And this is what I'm saying to you check it
    D

    All over the world hearts
    F#m
    D

    pound with the rhythm

    Fear not of men because men must die

    Mind over matter and soul before flesh

    Angels hold a pen keep a record in time

    Which is passing and running like

    a caravan trader (uh- huh)

    The world is overrun with the wealthy

    and the wicked (uh)

    But God is sufficient

    in disposing of affairs

    Gunmen and stockholders

    try to merit my fear

    But God is sufficient over

    plans they prepared

    Mos Def in the flesh,

    where you at, right here

    On this place called Earth,

    holding down my square
    Verse 5
    D

    'Bout to do it for y'all,

    and y'all at the fair

    So just bounce, come on bounce

    B- b- bounce, bounce, just b- bounce

    And just

    Just step two, three

    Just step two, three and

    Step two

    Two, three and

    One, two, three and four

    One, two, three and four

    (we gon' dance,

    said we dance again) one, two, three
    Verse 6

    Once again
    D

    All over the world hearts
    F#m
    D

    pound with the rhythm
    F#m

    Fear not of men because men must die
    D

    Mind over matter and soul before flesh

    Angels hold a pen keep a record in time

    Which is passing and running

    like a caravan trader

    The world is overrun with

    the wealthy and the wicked

    But God is sufficient

    in disposing of affairs

    Gunmen and stockholders try

    to merit your fear
    F#m

    But God is sufficient over plans

    they prepared (God Allah)
    D

    • 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.”
