  • Verse 1
    Uh 

    yeah 

    See, 
    this 
    is 
    what these 
    mixtapes is all 

    about 

    Knah'msayin KaySlay? 

    Talk 
    to 
    the people, 

    with 
    no 
    interruptions 
    and 
    interference 

    Verse 2
    Put 
    that 
    mic 
    down, 

    admire 
    the technique 
    and 
    tight 
    tight 
    sounds 

    Of a 
    Renagade, never 
    been 
    afraid, 

    the time 
    is 
    right 
    now 

    Before 
    I take 
    my 
    bow 
    and 
    finally 
    allow 

    My 
    love 
    affair 
    with 
    rap 
    to 
    fade, 

    I'll sink 
    into 
    the 
    page 

    Pleasure 
    and the 
    pain 
    that 
    came 

    from 
    rulin' 
    the 
    game 

    And 
    the half 
    Dominican 
    that 

    gave me 
    brains 
    in the 
    fast 
    lane 

    seventeen-year 
    reign, 

    reign, 
    simple 
    and plain 

    When 
    ruled 
    the 
    rap 
    game 
    and all 

    my 
    peers 
    sold 
    cocaine 

    One-three-two 
    Uptown, 
    Uptown, 

    Uptown, 
    when Rich 
    Porter 
    told 
    me 

    "See 
    you 
    can 
    push 
    a new 
    car, 

    it's 
    different 
    for 
    a rap 
    star" 

    And 
    AZ 
    was 
    givin' 
    50s to 
    the homeless 

    They 
    never 
    bragged 
    about 
    it 
    ? "L, 

    we 
    don't 
    condone 
    this" 

    On 
    the back 
    of the 
    bike 
    with 
    Alpo 

    Doin' a 
    buck 
    down 
    one-two-five, 

    hopin' 
    to 
    to 
    to stay 
    alive 

    Verse 3
    Favorite 
    spot 
    rooftop 

    Me 
    and Big 
    chuckle 
    up 
    when 
    he 
    was 

    hittin' 
    up 
    "Juicy" 
    and 
    whatnot 

    Dam
    n, 
    when 
    Dapper 

    Dan 
    got 
    shot 
    up 

    Before 
    they made 
    drops 
    when we 

    had 
    to 
    cut 
    the top 
    up 

    Some 
    cats 
    neglected 
    the 

    fact 
    that 
    was 
    hot 

    Cause 
    they 
    warm 
    and electin' 
    me 
    hot 

    when 
    I stepped 
    in 
    the spot 

    Lyrically 
    reppin' 
    the 
    block 

    on 
    Farmers 
    to 
    rock 

    But 
    my 
    sex 
    symbol 
    status 
    made 
    me, 

    corny 
    to cop 

    The microphone 
    strategist 
    ripped 

    the 
    apparatus 

    Left competition 
    embarrassed 

    Verse 4
    but 
    I never 
    held 
    malice 

    Kinda 
    saw 
    street 
    literature 

    Used 
    to lose 
    battles 
    on purpose 

    so 
    these 
    cats 
    can 
    dream 
    more 

    want 
    to see 
    y'all 
    shine 

    without 
    the use 
    of a 
    nine 

    You 
    might 
    see 
    nigga, 

    I see 
    a black 
    Einstein 

    A diamond 
    in 
    the rough, 

    he's 
    remidin' me 
    as 
    tough 

    Young 
    girls 
    takin' 
    X, 

    she's 
    blinded 
    by 
    the stuff 

    Oh 
    my 
    God, 
    where 
    did 
    we 
    go 
    wrong? 

    Are 
    you doin' 
    what 
    you're 
    doin 

    'cause 
    ruined 
    you 
    with 
    songs? 

    God 
    forgive 
    me, 

    never 
    knew 
    my 
    power 
    to 
    devour 
    the 
    demons 

    Y'all 
    know 
    the 
    Devil 
    be 
    schemin' 

    It's 
    a manifestation 
    of the 

    pain 
    of a 
    nation 

    That makes 
    materialism 
    the 
    only 

    thing 
    we're 
    chasin' 

    The 
    real 
    gangstas never 

    talked 
    to me 
    tough 

    Never 
    told 
    me they 
    was 
    hard, 

    or claimed 
    to be 
    my 
    God 

    When 
    I first 
    found 
    the courage 

    to bounce 
    up 
    outta 
    Queens 

    And 
    saw 
    Big 
    Dave 
    comin' 
    up 
    out 

    the store 
    with 
    money 
    machines 

    My 
    only 
    dream 
    was 
    to 

    rock 
    mics in the 
    spotlight 

    Joint 
    bumpin' 
    on Marley 

    Show 
    all night 

    Whoever 
    thought 
    that 
    I would 

    be 
    movie 
    star? 

    A rap 
    icon, 
    chokin' 
    the 

    game 
    like 
    a python 

    Russell 
    turned 
    the hype 
    on, 

    exploded 
    like 
    a pipe 
    bomb 

    Just 
    because 
    young 
    boy, 

    turned 
    the mic 
    on 

    Still 
    admire 
    skills 
    and 
    cats 
    that 
    are ill 

    With 
    lyri-kills, 
    nowadays 
    the 
    chorus 

    is 
    payin' 
    the 
    bill 

    The black 
    man 
    found 

    a way 
    outta 
    the 
    hood 

    Now 
    it's 
    slaves 
    to 
    mayor's 

    not 
    all 
    good 

    Don't 
    let 'em 
    take 
    our music 

    and 
    plagiarize 
    the 
    game 

    Then 
    you call 
    up 
    and request 
    it and 

    pretend 
    it's 
    really 
    flames? 

    The 
    tip 
    of the 
    iceberg, 
    I'll 
    hold 
    my 
    piece 

    In 
    the meantime, 
    live 
    smart, 

    watch 
    out for 
    the 
    beast 

    Lyrical 
    Picasso 
    flow 
    masterpiece 

    Like 
    Mi
    chaelangelo 
    or 

    Rembrant, you 
    know? 

    Si 
    palare poco 
    Italiano 

    LL 
    bravisimo, grazie, 
    prego! 

    Más mejor 
    siempre 
    mi 
    amigo 

    Pero, 
    music 
    is 
    muy 
    muy 
    duro 

    Tú sabe, 
    que 
    tú quieres 
    es 

    no 
    problema 

    Te quiero 
    mucho, 

    yo 
    comprendo your 
    dilemma 

    Sumer's 
    comin', it won't 

    always 
    be 
    winter 

    I pray 
    to God 
    He 
    forgives 
    me, 

    I'm 
    sinner 

    Verse 5

    That's 
    a little 
    message 

    All 
    the brothers 
    and 
    sisters 
    out 
    there 

    Y'all 
    be strong 

    Keep 
    your 
    dreams 
    flowin' 

    baby 

    KaySlay I'm out 
    for 
    presidents 

    to 
    represent 
    me 

    But 
    I want 
    to get 
    'em 
    the right 
    way, 

    y'know?

      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

      "

      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 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.
