lyrics

Verse 1:

When it comes to spitting these bars and killing the flow
I swear to your god, that Hip Hop is all that I know
Soon as the beat drops
I lose all sense of control
“But wait, didn't you used to sell drugs before?”
So...
I did that shit cause I was tapped and broke
With no hope
So I had to jump off the porch
But that never had an influence on the shit that wrote
So my question to you
Why the fuck you bring that up for?
“I don't even know...”
Ok...
Let's move it along
I never let anyone depict what I say in my songs
“But you're an atheist, don't you question if you're wrong?”
Have you ever read Psalms 137 verse 9?
Would you kill your own spawn?
“No”
Shut the fuck up and get the hell on
Before Hip Hop all I did was write poems
Who would of knew this whirl wind
Would've turn to storm
These lyrics and bars
The only thing I depend on
When it comes to rap
Better know how to count measures
You can be nice and off beat, bruh
Get you shit together
Cause I'll say to ya face that it's wack
Do better...
I'm tryna fucking tell ya, cuz....
This is all I know

Chorus:

This is all I know
To kill lyrics and beats
And perfect my flow
Though I learned to hustle the streets
And get that dough
Hip Hop's still all I know
This is all I know
I wish I knew something better
But I don't....
A chance to change my past
I bet you that I won't
Long as I have a pen to grab
And a beat that's dope
Hip Hop's still I know
It is all I know


Verse2(Tombstone Da Deadman):

I create elaborate landscapes with a pen and a pad
And write murderous soliloquies when I’m pissed and get mad
This is more than just an art form it’s a lifestyle I’ve had
Since way back when all the naysayers called it a fad
It’s been a steady evolution I had it while I was fucking up
Was criminal minded and saw all you niggas as buttercup
And stayed strapped with burners in case they was scared to knuckle up
And thought that made me a man and the rest just wasn't man enough
My content reflected the dumb shit I respected
And the trials and tribulations that reality injected
So when I say that I grew with hip hop it’s not a cliche
Cause when I dropped the foolishness my rhymes went the same way
And really up to this day I honestly can’t say
If hip hop was responsible for changes that I made
But I’m guessing in the end it don’t matter cause time showed
That whatever my situation hip hop is all I know


Chorus:

This is all I know
To kill lyrics and beats
And perfect my flow
Though I learned to hustle the streets
And get that dough
Hip Hop's still all I know
This is all I know
I wish I knew something better
But I don't....
A chance to change my past
I bet you that I won't
Long as I have a pen to grab
And a beat that's dope
Hip Hop's still all I know
It is all I know


Verse3:
To the empty weed bags with the shake in it
To the dope ass beats with the breaks in it
I'm a stay in it
Never play timid
Til' that fat lady sings
Loses her voice
I ain't playing with this
I'm cemented in rap
Try to shovel me out
Even jackhammers can't dig
I stay committed
And loyal to rap
We ain't splitting
Til' death do us part
Tomb's digging my grave
I ain't bullshitting...around
I stay profound straight spitting
When I stopped hustling
My bars were hard hitting
If it ain't about music
I pay that shit no attention
Especially, fuck niggas, beef and silly women
I've done shit to my fam
I hope that I'm forgiven
When I pass
Make sure you give Zo all of my writtens
I'm a Hip Hop head
I never hop to what's hip
That's all I fucking know
That's all I'll fucking live, yo


Chorus:

This is all I know
To kill lyrics and beats
And perfect my flow
Though I learned to hustle the streets
And get that dough
Hip Hop's still all I know
This is all I know
I wish I knew something better
But I don't....
A chance to change my past
I bet you that I won't
Long as I have a pen to grab
And a beat that's dope
Hip Hop's still all I know
It is all I know
