And not the weak

Let me inherit the street, fuck it

You know what I mean?

I mean I love life man,

Life is beautiful,

it's just the shit in it that's fucked up

It's rough but it's fair

People gotta go out there and bust they,

bust they ass for a job

I mean, my dad's got five kids,

man and I mean yo

I'm a rhyme artist

Out here tryin' to grind my hardest

Up early so to milk the cow

Keep my John Deere out here

plowin' the fields

To keep my John Hancock's

worth up in the now

Went from hangin' on blocks

to hangin' on charts

Positions is part of my mission

to hangin' on top

Gotta get your polly cracker

or with them crackers

And them scheisty ass niggas

if you like it or not

I've been rewired to work more

efficiently in the dirt

I'm hands on with it all up in my cuticles

Some try to get off the farm

but fell into harm

Of getting in the game of those

street pharmaceuticals

But, I was raised in those blue

collar themes

Havin' white collar dreams cause

I see what it means

And though the meek shall inherit

the earth but don't forget

The poor are the ones who inherit the debt

You can bet I got better

things to do than that

I was a dick who got jerked

by Tom and his boys

Came on my land,

seized my cattle, and catalog

As if it wouldn't leave me less than coy

But I'm far from bitter even

further from quittin'

Got a grind date to make,

no time for sittin'

And playin' Xbox,

Know what I'm sayin? I'm sick

of askin' though

I mean, the street philosophy is that

I'm gonna milk the cow and cook

the meat

At least I'm gonna have some

kind of food and drink

Because sometimes you

can't come back

Like momma said that if you need

Yo fuck a rhyme artist, I ain't here for that

I was born with the boom bap,

respect the name

My hands on experience was hands

on my first contract

Taught me quick how to respect

the game

Introduced to the block,

got used to the block

But your neighbors be the ones

who throw shit on your lawn

they got annoyed

But we got ahead, and we got along

And puttin' work on the calendars,

worse on them calendars

Worth of hump days that

broke the camel's back

The grind'll make today look gray

And paint a tainted picture of

tomorrows in enamel black

Meet the rhyme, street grind,

son whatever the beast

I'm a take it at the horns till

the pinky toe torn

And show you why we here this long

Cause when it comes to puttin' in work

Once again it's on

I'm just like everybody else man An

average nigga with above

average potential

You know what I mean? I'm not sayin'

that I'm a gentleman

I'm saying that I know how

to act like a gentleman

In order to get the things that I need

And if I gotta pull out my nickle

bag, I'm gonna do that

we stayin' here

You damn right I am proud of myself man

And I'm proud of my team man

I don't want you to get the wrong,

yo baby on the real?

I don't have sex with people that I do

business with neither

And that's the real

But I do do business with people

that I have sex with

So if there ain't no conflict,

let's get this grind on

'Cause I'm gonna fuck the

shit outta you, that's word

  • 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.
