[Intro 1]
[G][F][G][F]
[G][Am][F]

[Verse 1]
[F]Fellas feel the
soul when [G]the beat gets crackin'
Ladies let em know,
it's deeper than rappin'
[Am]G and
E, [F]makin' it happen,
keep on [Am]keepin' on growin' and adaptin'
[F]Speakin' on bein' som[G]eone fashioned,
out of righteous ideas now I'm laughin'
[Am]Me and
E would get [F]a bottle of yak, bottoms up,
toss it back, I don't miss that no more
Oh [G]no, I'm sure, full of mojo,
blow your wig back with force
[Am]You un[G]derdig, live w[F]ith no remorse,
this is [Dm]the knock, I'm an open door
[F]With many hallways,
[G]M -A -N -Y, I miss long days,
they were a friend of [Am]mine
But in time, [F]I sense time
Bet[Dm]ter for the metaphor tenfold
Dino[F]saur, giant, [G]but gentle
In my skin, bro, I am your kinfolk
[Am]It ain't t[G]he end of nothin[F]g
When you wield your [Dm]weapon
What's next [F]is simple
The goal is to [G]ex pire
One to stay steady on the path
Even when it becomes
heavy and hard [Am]to bear
[F]Let no man take your dream away
Keep knockin' till the gate swings open
Why we been knockin' and [G]not call out?
When they gon' answer
back and get down
[Am]Down to the heart, [F]center of the room
Need all of you to speak your truth
We've been knockin'
and [G]knockin' loud
When they gon' answer
back and get down
[Am]Down to the heart, [F]center of the room
Need all of you to [Dm]speak your [Am]truth
If you [F]knock, [G]knock up on my door I'm gon' [Am]answer,
hel[F]lo, [Dm]hello, hello, hello
If you [F]knock, knock, [G]knock on my door I'm gon' [Am]answer,
hel[F]lo, [Dm]hello, hello, hello
We been [F]knocking for a [Dm]long time,
[G]rocking with the raw rhymes
Knuckles to the bone, bleeding outlines,
an outlaw [Dm]with alkaline in[F]tentions
Not [Dm]a asinine, actin' my
Shakespeare, break fear, make it clear
Staking high fashion,
ashen passion as [G]it burns but never run out
I shoot my shit but never see no gun out,
I loop the heat an[Am]d always have the sun out
I [Dm]make my points through action, catch the run off,
it's worth a sip
I'm done now with that line,
not quite [F]the end, I'm in the front now
The [G]one zone, been here since a teen
My writing never stops, I'm in the scene
I'm [Am]on t[G]he green,
the green[F]er grasses never [Dm]quit
I'm on an odyssey of spit,
turn the gold I spit it from [F]the soul
I get it on [G]the go,
I'm on the road I hit it when I need release
We hit it in the lake to rid the
earth [Am]of snake and cold shakes
A [Dm]bold take on life is walking through
the door
You've been banging on
since day one
[F]The first instinct usually tells the truth
I [G]play one playwright,
G plays the other
We write the mysteries for you [Am]to uncover
[F]One
Southern
California [Dm]afternoon I made my daily,
knocked the door, creaked [F]open
Finally I'm on the spot, [G]I'm on the lot
We in the light, we on the right
Stage for the right reason, [Am]right on
[F]All that means to me is, fight on
I keep [Dm]the light [F]on
[G]I keep the light on
I keep the light [Am]on
[F]I keep the light o[Dm]n
I keep the light on
[Am]We've been [F]knockin' the [G]knock all out
When they gon' answer back
and get down, [Am]down to [F]the heart
Center of the world
Need all of you, [Dm]to speak your [Am]truth
[F]We've been knockin'
and [G]knock all loud
When they gon' answer
back and get down
[Am]Down to [F]the heart, center of the world
Need all [Am]of you to [Dm]speak your [Am]truth
If you [F]knock, [G]knock up on my door
I'm gon' [Am]answer, hel[F]lo,
hello, [Dm]hello, hello
If you [F]knock, [G]knock, up on my door
I'm gon' [Am]answer, [F]hello, hello,
[Dm]hello, [F]hello[G][Am][F]
