Verse 1
(E minor) When (C major)
(D major) (E minor) it comes to being true, (C major)
at least true to me (D major)
One thing I found, (C major) one thing I found
(D major) Oh no you never let me (E minor) down
Get up, I get down
Get up, I get down
Get up, I get down
Get up, I get down
Get up, I get down
Get up (B major) , I (D major) get down
Verse 2
Yo, (E minor) first I snatched the streets
(C major) then I snatched the charts
(D major) First (D minor) I had (D major) they ear,
now I have they heart
(C major) Rappers came and went,
(D major) I've been here from the start
(E minor) I seen them put it together,
watched them take it apart
Seen the rovers roll up with ribbons
I seen them repo'd, resold then re- driven
So when I reload, (D major)
(E minor) he holds number one po (C major) sition
When you hot I'm hot (D major)
(D minor) And when your feet cold,
mines is sizz (D major) lin'
It's (C major) plain to see,
niggas (D major) can't fuck with me
(E minor) 'Cause I'm a be that nigga for life
This is not an image, this is God given
This is hard livin',
mixed with Cristal sippin'
It's the most consistent, (D major) Hov
(E minor) Give you the most hits you can (C major)
fit inside a whole disc (D major) and
Nigga I'm home on these charts,
y'all niggas visitin'
(C major) It's Hov tradition, (D major) Jeff Gordon of rap
I'm (E minor) back to claim pole position,
holla at ya boy

Verse 3
Get up, I get (E minor) down
Get up, I get down
Get up, I get down
Get up, I get down
Verse 4
I get down for my grandfather (C major)
who took my momma
Made her (D major) sit in that seat where
white folks ain't want us to eat
At (C major) the tender age of six she was
(D major) ar rested for the sit- ins
(E minor) And with that in my blood I was
born to be different
Now niggas can't make it to
ballots to choose leadership
But we can make it to Jacob's and
to the (D major) (E minor) dealership
That's why I hear new music (C major) an d I just
don't be feelin' it (D minor) (D major)
Racism still alive, they just be concealin' it
(C major) But I know they don't (D major) want
me in the damn club
(E minor) They even make me show ID
to get inside of Sam's club
I done did dirt and went to church
to get my hands scrubbed
Swear I've been baptized
each three or four times
(D major) But (E minor) in the land where niggas praise
Yukons and (C major) getting paid
Its goin' (D major) take a lot more than
coupons to get us saved
Like (C major) it take a lot more than du-
rag (D major) s to get you waves
Nothing sad (E minor) as that day
my girl father past away
So I promised to Mr. Rainey I'm
gonna marry your daughter
And you know I gotta thank you for
the way that she was brought up
And I know that you was smiling when
you (C major) seen the car I bought her
And (D major) you sent tears from heaven when
you seen my car get balled up
But (C major) I can't complain what the ac
(D major) cident did to my left eye (E minor)
'Cause look what an
accident did to Left Eye
First Aaliyah, now Romeo must die
I know I got angels watchin'
me from the other side (D major)
Verse 5
When it (E minor) comes to being true, (C major)
at least true to me (D major)
One thing I found, (C major) one thing I found
(D major) Oh no you never let me (E minor) down
Get up, I get down
Get up, I get down
Get up, I get down
Get up, I get down
Get up, I get down
Get up, I (D major) get (E minor) down
Verse 6
We are all here for (C major) a reason
on a particular path (D major)
You don't need a curriculum to know
that you a apart (C major) of the math
Cats think (D major) I'm delirious but
I'm so dam (E minor) n serious
That's why I expose my soul to the globe,
the world
I'm tryin' to make it better for
these little boys and girls
I'm not just another individual
My spirit is (C major) a part of this
that's (D major) why I get spiritual
But I get my hymns from Him
So it's (C major) not me it's He that's lyric (D major) al
I'm not a miracle,
(E minor) I'm a heaven sent instrument
My rhythmatic regiment
navigates melodic notes
For your soul and your mental
That's why I'm instrumental,
vibration (D major) s is (E minor) what I'm into
Yeah I need (C major) my loot by rent day
But (D major) that ain't what gives me the
heart of Kunta Kinte
I'm tryin' to (C major) give us us
free like (D major) Sinke
I can't stop,
(E minor) that's why I'm hot
Determination, dedication,
motivation
I'm talking to you of my
many inspirations
When I say I can't let you or self down (D major)
(E minor) If I were on the highest (C major) cliff,
on the highest riff
And (D major) you slipped off the side
and clinched on to your life
In my grip (C major) I would never (D major) ever let you (E minor) down
And when these words are found
Let it be known that God's
penmanship has been signed
With a language called love
That's why my breath is felt by the death
(D major) And (E minor) while my words are heard and
con (C major) fined to the ears of the blind
(D major) I too dream in color and in rhyme
(C major) So I guess I'm one (D major) of a kind
in a full house
'Cause (E minor) whenever I open my heart,
my soul or my mouth
Verse 7
A touch of God reigns out
(E minor)
When it comes to being true,
(D major) at (C major) least (D major) true (C major) to me (D major)
One thing I found, (C major) one thing I (D major) found
Oh no you never let me (E minor) down
Get up, I get
Get up, I get
Get up, I get
Get up, I get
Get up, I get
Get up, I (D major) get (E minor) down
Verse 8
Who else you know been (C major) hot this (D major) long
Started from nothing but
he got this strong
Built (C major) the Roc from a pebble,
peddled (D major) rock before I met you
Peddled (E minor) bikes,
got my nephews peddle bikes because they special
Let you tell it man I'm fallin' well
Somebody must have
caught him 'cause
Every fourth quarter,
I like to Mike Jordan (D major) 'em
(E minor) Number one albums what (C major) I got,
like four of 'em
(D major) More of them on the way,
the eighth wonder on the way
Clear the way, (C major) I'm here to stay
Y'all can (D major) save the chitter chat,
this (E minor) an d that
This is Jay, dissin' Jay will
get you Mase'd
When I start spittin' them lyrics
niggas get very religious
Six hail Mary's please
Father forgive us
(D major) Young, (E minor) the archbishop,
(C major) the Pope John Paul of y'all (D major) niggas
They way y'all all follow
Jigga
(C major) Hov's a livin' (D major) legend (C major) and
I'll (D major) tell you why
Every (E minor) body want to be
Outro 1
Hov and Hov's still alive
(E minor)
