Dirt Off Your Shoulder Lying From You

Ladies and gentlemen

Put our hands together

For the astonishing

H to the izz-OV

V To the izz-A

Welcome ladies and gentlemen

To the 8th wonder of the world

The flow o' the century

Oh it's timeless

Hove

Thanks for comin' out tonight

You coulda been

Anywhere in the world

But you're here with me

I appreciate that unh

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

Fo' shizzle my nizzle

Used to dribble down in VA

Was herbin' 'em in

The home of the Terrapins

Got it dirt cheap for them

Plus if they was short wit' cheese

I would work wit' them

Boy and we got rid of

That dirt for them

Wasn't born hustlers

I was burpin' 'em

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

Fo' sheezy my neezy

Keep my arms so freezy

Can't leave rap alone

The game needs me

Haters want me clapped

And chromed it ain't easy

Cops wanna knock me

DA wanna box me in

But somehow I beat them

Charges like Rocky

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

Not guilty he who does not

Feel me is not real to me

Therefore he doesn't exist

So poof

Vamoose son of a b****

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

Fo' shizzle my nizzle used

To dribble down in VA

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

That's the anthem

Get'cha damn hands up

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

Not guilty ya'll got-ta feel me

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

That's the anthem

Get'cha damn hands up

I do this for my culture

To let 'em know

What a nigga look like

When a nigga in a roaster

Show 'em how to move

In a room full 'o vultures

Industry shady it need

To be taken over

Label owners hate me

I'm raisin' the status quo up

I'm overchargin' niggaz for

What they did to the Cold Crush

Pay us like you owe us for

All the years that you hold us

We can talk but money talks

So talk mo' bucks

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

Fo' shizzle my nizzle used

To dribble down in VA

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

That's the anthem

Get'cha damn hands up

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

Not guilty ya'll got-ta feel me

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

That's the anthem

Get'cha damn hands up

Yeah

Hove is back

Life stories told through rap

Niggaz actin' like I sold you crack

Like I told you sell drugs no

Hove did that so hopefully

You won't have to go through that

I was raised in the

Projects roaches and rats

Smokers out back

Sellin' they mama's sofa

Lookouts on the corner

Focussed on the ave

Ladies in the window

Focussed on the kinfolk

Me under a lamp post

Why I got my hand closed?

Cracks in my palm

Watchin' the long arm o' the law

So you know I seen it all before

I seen hoop dreams deflate

Like a true fiend's weight

To try and to fail

The two things I hate

Succeed in this rap game

The two things is great

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

What else can I say about dude

I gets bizzay

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

Fo' shizzle my nizzle used

To dribble down in VA

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

That's the anthem

Get'cha damn hands up

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

Not guilty ya'll got-ta feel me

H to the izz-O V to the izz-A

That's the anthem

Get'cha damn hands up
