VERSE

Back when I just started writing rhymes,
it was "keepin' it real”/
and not a damn thing's changed,
I stil speak what I feel/
though I was young, and I was dumb,
and I exaggerated some/
I never acted brave, I was,
and I didn't have to play with guns/


VERSE

I cherish anonymity,
my parents had a tendency/
to put some sense in my,
my destiny is to rest in peace/
and improve progressively,
you best believe each breath I breathe/
I leave 'em with the recipe
for sucess, and bless 'em like the heavenly/


VERSE

Since birth had my mind Right/
don't understand, so a nigga gotta highlight:/
Rrhapsodize Iintelligence, Ggruesome Hhandles/
"T" for "Ttouch Ttatics, Ttechniques Tteachin' each in Ttime"/


HOOK

Bringin' no honor to the game/
man you oughtta be ashamed/
you better
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)/
your exaggerations never quit/
even your homies know you're full of shit/
you better
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)


VERSE

Partially, all I wanna get
is a chill environment/
deuce, coupe, and a lady,
wit'a house for my kids/
second home in Kingston,
read a book, write a journey,
and you listen when I spit/


VERSE

Much luv to everybody keepin' it honest and true/
as long as I'm reppin' VA, this is my promise to you/
I'll never switch up when I make it big, like a lot of us do/
cuz I'll forever spit the truth as long as I'm in this booth/


VERSE

(let it go) You're proud of gettin' shot/
(pathetic hoe) you're proud of gettin' caught/
(let 'em know) you're loud and sayin' squat/
you're mad about the bling/
you lust to be a player,
you must just need a prayer/
I'm deep on every layer,
y'all can eat my derrière/


HOOK

All you throw-back jersey
with the matchin' hat rats need to/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
I give a fuck what kinda car you drive/
you softer than your rawest rhyme/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
Fakin' like you're strapped with gats/
talkin' 'bout "gangsta" this and "gangsta" that/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
So what? You popped somethin'?/
muthafucka, stop frontin',
please/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
All that bling around your neck/
but you can't buy respect/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
your bitch-ass wants to be/
everything that you see on TV/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)


VERSE

Blessed with the gift of gab/
I'll shine, but I'll skip the fad/
your blind if you don't spit the facts/
mankind ain't equipped to last/
unless you swallow pride, let it go,
better grow,
fly straight/like a hetero,
righteous blood flow from head to toe/


VERSE

And niggaz better start mindin' their character/
because their character's being watched by too many/
and don't get it twisted, 'cause I'm not talkin' I/
I be talkin' kiddies, 'cause I see 'em chasing lies/


VERSE

And if we intend to grow/
and take Hip-Hop down a better road/
gotta start rappin' about experience instead of hoes/
And I wonder what y'all sound like tellin' the truth,
but I guess we'll never know/
cuz you're lyin' ass can't just let it go/


HOOK

All you old emcees in your mid-life crisis/
thinkin' that you're the tightest/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
You stupid, actin' like you teach/
and you don't practice what you preach/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
There's no integrity/
under the man that you pretend to be/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
Man, if you ain't down for change/
and you want everything to sound the same/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
showin' off a six-pack/
cuz you can't rap for shit, jack/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)/
Just be honest if you're in it/
for the money and the women/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
You're lying about the women in your bed/
you're suckin' dick instead/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
you got it twisted/
man, your credibility is non-existent/
(let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
