Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I [Dm]never can say goodbye
No no n- no I, never can say goodbye
I, I don't know the rest
[F][Dm][F]

[Verse 2]
We [Dm]those [Am]pros,
we never [Dm]procrastinate (ah)
Them guardians they shouldn't
let you get past the gate
Watch out dog,
the watchdog's showing his teeth
(Guess you bit too much
shit) they biting your beat
While I speak from experience,
hunger and hurt
And a little bit of hate from
niggas doing me dirt
I just wash it all out with Tide and show love
To those who ride [E]with me
[Dm]while I'm putting in work

[Verse 3]
Full- [Dm]timing it,
8:30 to 6, the graveyard shift
The three months before
the benefits hit
But my position went temp' to perm'
I sat and listened like an intern
watching who applied get fired
Now I'm sitting in the break room,
they gotta make room (make room)
My paper stacks, put staples through 'em
So I can keep my money together
Some die- hard fans just don't want it like,
"Put Pos back on it"

[Verse 4]
I'm back on [Dm]it,
that's why you never disappointed
We give you what we live through
for real (for real)
Don't own a crown but I'm royalty
And trying to see the royalty checks
about a half a mil'
Whether off or on the chart,
my cuts grips your heart
(You know we got you
open) like your gut splits apart
I never [Am]pass the buck[Dm],
my shoulder holds the weights
So don't beef when we
don't pass collection plates

[Verse 5]
I don't [Dm]give money,
I don't support the needy
Schooled in America,
taught to be greedy
And everything ought to be, easy
But I never could say goodbye to my
friends who get high
I wonder [Am]why, [Dm]I'm rocking with that guy,
it's serious
Still make him cry when the
satire's hilarious
Cold for your areas,
flows come in various shapes [E]and sizes
[Dm]So hot that you despise it

[Verse 6]
Never last [Am]up to b[Dm]at (no,
no, no, no)
These skills we don't lack (no,
no, no, no)
We never fall and pray (no, no,
n- no, no)
Make all the ladies say
(ooh, ooh baby)
You can't [Am]knock the hustle,
[Dm]not at all (no, no, no, no)
Can't be budged by your muscle (no,
no, no, no)
Never riding [Am]on E [Dm](no, no,
n- no, no)
It's De La and Butta V (drive you crazy)

[Verse 7]
Yo, [Dm]if you are what you eat
Some of you cats heads between
your girl's legs a lot
'Cause y'all act too sweet
(go brush your teeth!)
Then after that
Put in a little more practice on
your rhyming attack
What you write's not the least bit hot
Maybe cause your wrist is so cold
from all that ice you cop
Hate to hate a player but you know what?
I still smother ya like cheese and
[E]rocking [Dm]leaves freshly cut

[Verse 8]
And we the steak [Dm]and potatoes and
De La's the greatest
And ladies be on the floor thanking
the Lord that He made us
I'm telling you,
I [Am]swoop her [Dm]like a pelican do
You saying look at that pelican fly,
you spitting gelatin rhymes
They [Am]shaky [Dm]as shit, ugly in the mold you fit
We the square peg on the round hole,
sound's soulful
Your imitation flavor is tofu
It's true we make our bed all day,
and we are

[Verse 9]
The world [Dm]of rap! Take you back
In the days of all four hundred
ways that people lack
It's that (what) authentic,
big- nosed mic music
Four to five survive all night to it
I'm trying to keep up with my
Jones' and Thomas'
'Til I'm broke like them New
Year's Eve promises
And that's alright,
I just penned another sixteen
To fill my bank account with
the mixed greens

[Verse 10]
Moms [Dm]want 5's and 10's
The girls I got is 9's and
10's, VH1 "Behind The Pens"
You anticipate greatness
from elder statesmen
I ch- ch- ch- ah, like Biz Mark' or Jason
I bust [Am]one s[Dm]hot just to start the racing
The tortoise and the hare,
which one there is chasing?
Slow and steady, we already Andretti
Get ticket take parades,
waves and confetti and

[Verse 11]
Never last [Dm]up to bat (no, no, no, no)
These skills we don't lack (no,
no, no, no)
We never fall and [Am]pray [Dm](no, no,
n- no, no)
Make all the ladies say
(ooh, ooh baby)
You can't knock the hustle,
not at all (no, no, no, no)
Can't be budged by your muscle (no,
no, no, no)
Never riding on [Am]E (n[Dm]o, no,
n- no, no)
It's De La and Butta V
(drive you crazy)
Come on y'all

[Verse 12]
[Dm]If the Soul ke[Am]eps rocking,
the streets will [Dm]keep rocking
If the streets keep rocking,
the Soul will keep rocking
If the streets [Am]stop rocking,
[Dm]the Soul will keep rocking
If the Soul keeps rocking,
the streets will keep rocking

[Verse 13]
If the Soul [Am]keeps rocking,
the streets will [Dm]keep rocking
If the street[Am]s keep [Dm]rocking,
the Soul will keep rocking
If the streets [Am]stop [Dm]rocking,
[Am]the Soul will keep[Dm] rocking
If the Soul keeps [Dm]rocking,
the streets will keep rocking

[Verse 14]
If the Soul [Am]keeps rocking,
the streets will keep [Dm]rocking
If the streets keep rocking,
the Soul will keep rocking
[Dm]If the streets stop rocking,
the Soul will keep rocking
If the Soul keeps rocking,
the streets will keep rocking

[Verse 15]
If the Soul keeps rocking,
the streets will keep rocking
If the streets keep rocking,
the Soul will keep rocking
If the streets stop rocking,
the Soul will keep rocking
If the Soul keeps rocking,
the streets will keep rocking
