When it comes to being true, at least true to me

7
Get up, I get down
8
Get up, I get down
9
Get up, I get down
10
Yo, first I snatched the streets then I snatched the charts
11
First I had they ear, now I have their heart
12
Rappers came and went, I've been here from the start
13
I seen them put it together, watched them take it apart
14
Seen the rovers roll up wit ribbons
15
I seen them repo'd, resold then redriven
16
So when I reload, he holds number one position
17
When you hot I'm hot
18
And when your feet cold, mines is sizzelin'
19
It's plain to see, niggas can't fuck with me
20
'cause I'm a be that nigga for life
21
This is not an image, this is God given
22
This is hard livin', mixed with cristal sippin'
23
It's the most consistent, Hov
24
Give you the most hits you can fit inside a whole disc and
25
Nigga I'm home on these charts, y'all niggas visitin'
26
It's Hov tradition, Jeff Gordan of rap

I'm back to claim pole position, holla at ya boy
28
Get up, I get down
29
Get up, I get down
30
Get up, I get down
31
Get up, I get down
32
I get down for my grandfather who took my momma
33
Made her sit in that seat where white folks ain't want us to eat
34
At the tender age of 6 she was arrested for the sit in
35
And with that in my blood I was born to be different
36
Now niggaz can't make it to ballads to choose leadership
37
But we can make it to Jacob's and to the dealership
38
Swear I hear new music and I just don't be feelin' it
39
Racisms still alive, they just be concealin' it
40
But I know they don't want me in the damn club
41
They even make me show I.D to get inside of Sam's club
42
I done did dirt and went to church and get my hands scrubbed
43
Swear I've been baptized each 3 or 4 times
44
But in the land where niggas praise Yukons and getting paid
45
Its goin' take a lot more than coupons to get us saved
46
Like it take a lot more than durags to get you waves
47
Nothing sad as that day my girl's father past away
48
So I promised to Mr. Rany I'm gonna marry your daughter
49
And you know I gotta thank you for the way that she was brought up
50
And I know that you were smiling when you see the car I bought her
51
You sent tears from heaven when you seen my car get balled up
52
But I can't complain what the accident did to my left eye
53
'cause look what an accident did to Left Eye
54
First Aaliyah, now Romeo must die
55
I know I got angels watchin' me from the other side
56
When it comes to being true, at least true to me
57
One thing I found, one thing I found
58
Oh no you never let me down
59
Get up, I get down
60
Get up, I get down
61
Get up, I get down
62
Get up, I get down
63
Get up, I get down
64
Get up, I get down
65
We are all here for a reason on a particular path
66
You don't need a curriculum to know that you're apart of the math
67
Cats think I'm delirious but I'm so damn serious
68
That's why I expose my soul to the globe; the world
69
I'm tryin' to make it better for these little boys and girls
70
I'm not just another individual
71
My spirit is a part of this that's why it's spiritual
72
But I get my hymns from him
73
So it's not me it's he that's lyrical
74
I'm not a miracle, I'm a heaven sent instrument
75
My rhythmatic regiment navigates melodic notes
76
For your soul and your mental
77
That's why I'm instrumental, vibrations is what I'm into
78
Yeah I need my loot by rent day
79
But that ain't what gives me the heart of Kunta Kinte
80
I'm tryin' to give us us free like Sinke
81
I can't stop, that's why I'm hot
82
Determination, dedication, motivation
83
I'm talking to you of my many inspirations
84
When I say I can't let you or self down
85
If I were on the highest cliff, on the highest riff
86
And if you slipped off the side and clinched on to your life
87
In my grip I would never ever let you down
88
And when these words are found
89
Let it be known that God's penmanship has been signed
90
With a language called love
91
That's why my breath is felt by the death
92
And while my words are heard and confined to the ears of the blind
93
I too dream in color and in rhyme
94
So I guess I'm one of a kind in a full house
95
Cause whenever I open my heart, my soul or my mouth
96
A touch of god reigns out
97
When it comes to being true, at least true to me
98
One thing I found, one thing I found
99
Oh no you never let me down
100
Get up, I get
101
Get up, I get
102
Get up, I get
103
Get up, I get
104
Get up, I get
105
Get up, I get down
106
Who else you know been hot this long
107
Started from nothing but he got this strong
108
Built the ROC from a pebble, peddled rock before I met you
109
Peddled bikes, got my nephews peddle bikes because they special
110
Let you tell it man I'm fallin' well
111
Somebody must have caught him 'cause
112
Every fourth quarter, I like to Mike Jordan 'em
113
Number one albums what I got, like four of 'em
114
More of them on the way, the 8th wonder on the way
115
Clear the way, I'm here to stay
116
Y'all can save the chitter chat, this and that
117
This is Jay, dissin' Jay will get you Mase'd
118
When I start spittin' them lyrics niggas get very religious
119
Six hail Mary's please Father forgive us
120
Young, the archbishop, the Pope John Paul of y'all niggas
121
They way y'all all follow Jigga
122
Hov's a livin' legend and I'll tell you why
123
Everybody want to be Hov and Hov's still alive
