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 ***** look like
When a ***** 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\' ****** 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
****** 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
