CAN'T BE US
If the beat don't rock, make the dance floor pop
When the baseline drop
Then it can't be us
If your feet don't move when you hear that groove
Then you know what that prove
Man, it can't be us
If the words they said ain't stuck in your head
And the content's dead
You know that ain't us
But if they freak that flow and it sound like dough
Then it let you know, boy
It's gotta be us
We been rocking these beats since the early 90s
If you don't know me, man, it's time you know
I been flowing insane since before Black Reign
If it sound mundane then it can't be Sho
Made a album with my wife
We was talking bout God so you didn't wanna listen
Y'all ain't know what y'all was missing
Now I'm back to business, bear witness to the fitness
All the real will probably get this but the suckers be forgetting
If the beat don't rock
Make the dance floor pop
When the baseline drop
Then you know that ain't me
I was cooking up with rhymes that was blowing people's minds
When I clicked it up with City back in 1993
I been making hits since you was on your mama's hips
Lyrically equipped to flip a party in a ditch
Live by a code that the youngings don't know
Where a man is a man and we still don't snitch
Spent hours in a glass at the bottom of a bottle
I was choking on the gas and I couldn't work the throttle
I was saved by grace, saved my face
Saved my soul & built my safe
Now I'm coming back to leave a style for you to follow
This is for your study purpose, not for you to borrow
I'm appalled what I was hearing what you thinking bout Sho
Just because I found God I can't rhyme no mo?
If the beat don't rock, make the dance floor pop
When the baseline drop
Then it can't be us
If your feet don't move when you hear that groove
Then you know what that prove
Man, it can't be us
If the words they said ain't stuck in your head
And the content's dead
You know that ain't us
But if they freak that flow and it sound like dough
Then it let you know, boy
It's gotta be us
Started flowing at 10, reading Dr. Seuss books
Got better with bars, writing songs, making hooks
Use to see me up in school, had to battle a bunch of dudes
Started making new moves
Yeah, the girl show & proved
Made fans, met a man, had a kid, toured the land
Still reigning in command with the mic in my hand
It happened from this rapping everybody started snapping
Got with Q & met Sho and we put the plan in action
Made a CD full of dope shit, called it Dope Hits
Each piece was a right pick with a dope chick
Put the piece to the puzzle deaded pressures from the past
Funny fact, y'all rapping for likes on instagram
I damn near drowned in a lake of quicksand
Health took a toll, had to follow God's plan
The beat don't rock, the flow don't pop? Stop
The 3 reign drops gon' stay on top, watch
If your head ain't nodding & your feet ain't tapping
& your hands ain't clapping when we hit the stage
Check the roster, it's an imposter
Somebody come quick cause it ain't no way
You see the reign, you see the 3 - we
Qweezy, Sho & L.U.V
Ain't no love
Ain't no trust
Ain't no rain
Man you know it ain't us
If the beat don't rock, make the dance floor pop
When the baseline drop
Then it can't be us
If your feet don't move when you hear that groove
Then you know what that prove
Man, it can't be us
If the words they said ain't stuck in your head
And the content's dead
You know that ain't us
But if they freak that flow and it sound like dough
Then it let you know, boy
It's gotta be us
Uh, Black Reign, water when it fall
Ball up on these cats like aluminum foil
When it need fixing, who the fuck they gon' call
When the dark clouds come and the rain gon' fall
Been through it all, nigga, sit, quick, listen
20 years quality shit locked in position
Qwest will Sho you L.U.V. but L.U.V. will show you Qwest
If you running round this bitch & you ain't all about your business
It's all about persistence
I'm not with the resistance
I'm all about the mission, 'Caree cooking in the kitchen
Niggas wouldn't give us the time of the day
Now these niggas on time when they pay
Cause the beat be knocking & the flow stay rocking
If you ever seen a show then you we show stopping
Been a lotta copies but you nothing like us
Ask your CEO who put his ass on the bus
Huh
QSL I trust
Hit you with the reign that'll calm down the dust
You powered by VA but you just ain't us
Ain't no fuss, ain't nothing to discuss
I was the 1st one to put you in regular rotation
Now I'm trying to figure why you muhf**in' hatin
Huffing & puffing, doing a whole lotta faking
When you pull up in the Honda while my Benz make a statement
If the beat don't rock, make the dance floor pop
When the baseline drop
Then it can't be us
If your feet don't move when you hear that groove
Then you know what that prove
Man, it can't be us
If the words they said ain't stuck in your head
And the content's dead
