Izzo (H.O.V.A.) |
Ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for the astonishing… |
H to the izz-O…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 tonightYou coulda been anywhere in the world, but |
you’re here with me appreciate that… uuunnnh… |
H to the izz-O, V to the izz-A |
Fo' shizzle my nizzle used to dribble down in PA |
Was herbin' em in the home o' the terripans |
Got it dirt cheap for themPlus 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' emH to the izz-O, V to the izz-A |
Fo' sheezy my neezy keep my arms so greasyCan’t leave rap alone the game |
needs me Haters want me clapped and chromed it ain’t easy |
Cops wanna knock me, D.A. 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 bitch |
CHORUS |
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! |
Holla at me… |
I do this for my culture |
To let 'em know what a nigga look like… |
when a nigga 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' niggaz 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 |
CHORUS |
Yeah… |
Hove is back, life stories told through rap |
Niggas 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 pro-jects, roaches and rats |
Smokers out back, sellin' they mama’s sofa |
Lookouts on the corner, focused on the ave |
Ladies in the window, focused 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 |
CHORUS |
H to the izz-O, V to the izz-A… (4x to fade out) |
