    Yeah, 
    yeah, 

    yeah 



    Ice 
    water, 
    watch 
    your daughter 

    Your 
    mother 
    and your 
    sisters, 

    aunts, 
    nieces 
    and 
    your 
    wife 

    Sort 
    of 
    know, 
    ain't 
    nobody 
    safe 

    When 
    I'm 
    in the place, 

    I'm droppin' 
    more 
    bass 

    When face 
    -to 
    -face 
    a 
    race hates 

    with 
    a 
    taste of 
    a steady 
    pace 

    Ain't 
    no 
    time 
    to waste 

    and 
    it 
    ain't no 
    race 

    You 
    stage 
    your 
    case and 
    work 

    your ways 
    without 
    a 
    trace 

    An
    d 
    just 
    wait 
    for 
    double 

    black 
    to double 
    back 

    And 
    make 
    that 
    move, 
    break 
    it to you, 

    I'ma 
    do you 

    Now 
    ain't 
    that 
    cool 
    enough 

    to 
    take 
    your plus? 

    I ain't 
    just 
    here 
    to bust 
    so 

    you know 
    what 

    It ain't 
    just 
    another 
    lover 
    or 

    another 
    jerk 
    with money 

    Cause 
    I'm 
    giving 
    you 

    something 
    to 
    work 
    on 

    Honey, 
    you can 
    feel 
    the heat but 

    it 
    ain't no 
    pressure 

    I 
    wanna 
    turn 
    the heat 
    on, 

    the cool breeze 
    will refresh 
    ya 

    How 
    cool, 
    how 
    cool, 
    how 
    cool, 

    how cool 
    goin' black 
    man 
    be 

    How 
    cool, 
    how 
    cool, 
    how 
    cool, 

    how 
    cool 
    goin' 
    black man 
    be 

    Put 
    it in 
    flow 
    motion, 

    ice 
    cool 
    with a 
    nice cool 
    breeze 

    Native 
    song, 

    native 
    tongue for 
    the young 
    ladies 

    Robbin' 
    lines, 

    rockin' 
    minds 
    and concubines 

    Treatin' 
    like 
    a king 
    of this hip 
    -hop 
    thing 

    The 
    rhymes 
    manifest 
    as 
    a 
    vehicle 

    To see 
    a full 
    pic
    ture, 
    I'm 
    with ya 

    I'll 
    hit ya 
    with mix
    tures 
    of 
    beat 

    Come 
    a 
    fixture 
    inside 
    your 
    heart 

    Make 
    you feel 
    the pulse 
    of my 

    beat even 
    miles 
    apart 

    Ain't 
    no 
    mountain 
    high 

    enough 
    or 
    a valley 
    low 

    To 
    stop 
    cool mode, 
    I got 
    a cosmic 
    flow 

    I 
    glow like 
    a 
    moon, 
    it dictates 
    your 
    mood 

    But 
    cool ain't 
    a mood, 

    it's an 
    at
    titude, 
    dude 

    It's 
    a 
    tone, 
    it's a 
    tempo, 

    a 
    mind
    set, 
    a 
    rhythm 

    A 
    life
    style, 
    religion, 

    it's 
    just how 
    you livin' 

    I'm 
    righteously 
    cool 
    while 
    here 
    and 
    hereafter 
    I'm 

    so cool 
    that 
    I 
    have 
    to ask 
    you how 
    cool 

    How 
    cool 

    How 
    cool 

    How 
    cool 
    can 
    one 
    black man 
    be? 

    How 
    cool 

    How 
    cool 

    How 
    cool 

    How 
    cool can 
    one 
    black man 
    be? 

    Easy 
    does 
    it not 
    because 
    it's 
    easy 

    Turn 
    the 
    heat 
    on 
    and it still 

    won't 
    freeze 
    me 

    Intern
    al 
    climate 
    control 

    con
    trols 
    the climate 

    That's 
    why I 
    rhyme 
    at the 

    temperatures 
    I'm 
    at 

    Usu
    ally 
    freeze 
    competitive 
    emcees 

    And 
    break them 
    down 
    in threes 

    And 
    light them 
    up 
    like 

    Christ
    mas trees 

    For 
    the 
    vibe 
    of tranquil
    ity 

    To 
    deal 
    with the tri
    logy 

    I 
    got the 
    ability 

    For 
    upward 
    mobility 

    Break 
    calm 

    Genet
    ically, 
    athletically 

    Mental 
    exercise 

    And thoughts 
    cause 
    I went 
    through 

    Pover
    ty 
    like 
    a trooper 

    Complete 
    mind 
    fighter 

    And 
    now 
    I'm known as 
    a super 

    Elite 
    rhyme 
    writer 

    Now there's 
    women 
    in 
    mil
    lions 

    And 
    dollars 
    in 
    loads 

    fly gear 
    to 
    wear as 
    the stage 
    explodes 

    a 
    role 
    model 
    for the 
    people 

    cause 
    I 
    keep 
    a level 
    head 

    when I 
    look 
    into the 
    mirror 

    the reflection 
    says 

    how 
    cool 

    how 
    cool 

    how 
    cool 

    how 
    cool 
    can 
    one black 
    man 
    be 

    how 
    cool 

    how 
    cool 

    how 
    cool 

    how 
    cool 
    can 
    one 
    black man 
    be 

    I 
    never 
    lose 
    my compos
    ure 

    cause 
    I ain't 
    supposed 
    to 

    I rose 
    to 
    the 
    occasion, 

    thoughts never 
    froze 

    I chose 
    a pattern, 
    pre -patterned, 

    I 
    patterned 
    to the battle 
    zone 

    You 
    can 
    get rattled 
    home, 

    so 
    don't 
    even try 
    to roam 

    Or 
    drift 
    or 
    wander 
    into 
    my 
    vicinity 

    I 
    respond 
    to 
    calm 
    with no 
    affinity 

    Iden
    tity's 
    scraped, broken 

    down 
    on 
    tape 

    And it 
    ain't no 
    escape, 

    and you get
    s no 
    breaks 

    I 
    make 
    few 
    mistakes, 

    cause 
    I strive 
    for 
    perfection 

    Head 
    for the 
    hill, 

    if I shoot 
    in your 
    direction 

    Detec
    tion's 
    limited, 
    heroic 
    images 

    Are 
    broken 
    down, 
    hell bound 

    From 
    the 
    minute it's 
    im
    ages 
    amplified 

    I'll 
    be damned 
    if 
    I 
    believe 
    the 
    hype, 

    stereotypes, 
    I plan 
    to die 

    Like 
    a warrior, 
    fight 
    until 
    I'm free 

    How 
    cool 
    goin' 
    black 
    man 
    be? 

    How 
    cool 

    How

    How

    How 
    cool 
    goin' 
    black man 
    be? 

    How 
    cool 

    How

    How

    How 
    cool goin' 
    black man 
    be? 

    How 
    cool, 

    How

    How

    How

    How

    How

    How

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
