Bloodletting lyrics

I told you [Incomprehensible]

When it comes to being true at least true to me
One thing I've found, one thing I've found
Oh no, you never let me down

Get up, I get down, get up, I get down
Get up, I get down, get up, I get down
Get up, I get down

First I snatched the streets then I snatch the charts
First I had their ear, now, I have their heart
Rappers came and went I've been here from the start
I seen them put it together, watched them take it apart

Seen the rollers roll up with ribbons
I've seen em re-poed, re-sold and re-driven
So when I reload, he holds number 1 position
So when you hot, I'm hot and when your feet cold, mine's is sizzlin'

It's plain to see, niggas can't fuck with me
'Cause Imma be that nigga for life
This is not an image, this is God given
This is hard livin' mixed with Crystall sippin'

It's the most consistent Hov, give you the most hits
You can fit inside a whole disk and nigga I'm home on these charts
Ya'll niggas visitin', it's Hov tradition, Jeff Gordon of rap
I'm back to claim pole position, holla at ya boy

Get up, I get down, get up, I get down
Get up, I get down

I get down for my grandfather, who took my mamma
Made her sit in that seat, where white folks ain't want us to eat
At the tender age of 6, she was arrested for the sit-ins
And now with that in my blood, I was born to be different

Now niggas can't make it to ballots to choose leadership
But we can make it to Jacobs and to the dealership
That's why I hear new music and I just don't be feelin' it
Racism still alive, they just be concealin' it

But I know they don't want me in the damn club
They even made me show ID to get inside the Sam's Club
I done did dirt and when to church to get my hands scrubbed
That's why I been baptized at least 3 or 4 times

But in the land where, niggas praise Yukons and gettin' paid
It's gonna take a lot more than coupons to get 'em saved
Like take a lot more than Doo-Rags to get you waves
Nothin' as sad as that day, my girl's father passed away

So I promised to Mr. Rainey that I'm gonna marry your daughter
And you know I gotta thank you, for the way that she was brought up
And I know that you was smilin' when you seen the car I bought her
And you sent tears from heaven when you seen my car got balled up

But I can't complain, what the accident did to my left eye
'Cause look what the accident did to left eye
First Aaliyah, now Romeo must die, I know I got angels
Watchin' me from the other side

When it comes to being true at least true to me
One thing I've found, one thing I've found
Oh no, you never let me down

Get up, I get down, get up, I get down
Get up, I get down, get up, I get down
Get up, I get down, get up, I get down

We're all here for a reason on a particular path
You don't need a curriculum to know that you are part of the math
Cats think I'm delirious but I'm so damn serious
That's why I expose my soul to the globe, the world

I'm tryin' to make it better for these little boys and girls
I'm not just another individual
My spirit is a part of this, that's why I get spiritual
But I get my hymns from Him

So it's not me it's He that's lyrical
I'm not a miracle, I'm a heaven-sent instrument
My rythmatic regiment navigates melodic notes
For your soul and your mental that's why I'm instrumental

Vibrations is what I'm into, yeah I need my loot by rent day
But that ain't what gives me the heart of Kunte Kinte
I'm tryin' to give us, us free like Cinque, I can't stop
That's why I'm hot, determination, dedication, motivation

I'm talkin' to you and my many inspirations
When I say I can't let you or myself down
If I were on the highest cliff on the highest riff
And you slipped off the side and clinched on to your life in my grip

I would never, ever, let you down
And when these words are found
Let it be known that God's penmanship
Has been signed in the language called Love

That's why my breath is felt by the deaf
And why my words are heard and confined to the ears of the blind
I too, dream in color and in rhyme
So I guess I'm one of a kind in a full house
'Cause whenever I open my heart, my soul or my mouth
A touch of God, rains out, tackle it church

When it comes to being true at least true to me
One thing I've found, one thing I've found
Oh no, you never let me down

Get up, I get, get up, I get
Get up, I get, get up, I get
Get up, I get, get up, I get down

Who else you know been hot this long?
Oh Ya, you know we ain't finished
Started from nothin' but he got this strong
The ROC is in the building

Built the ROC from a pebble, pedalled rock before I met you
Pedalled bikes, got my nephews pedal bikes because they special
Let you tell that man I'm fallin'
Well, somebody must've caught him

'Cause every fourth quarter, I like to Mike Jordan them
Number one albums, what I got like four of them
More of them on the way, the Eight Wonder on the way
Clear the way, I'm here to stay
Y'all can save the chitter chat, this and that, this and Jay

Dissin' Jay will get you mased

Six Hail Maries, please Father forgive us
Young, the Archbishop, the Pope John Paul of y'all niggas

The way y'all all follow Jigga
Hov's a livin' legend and I tell you why
Everybody wanna be Hov and Hov still alive
