A. Mizell - Izzo (H.O.V.A.) lyrics

[Produced by Kanye West] Ladies and gentlemen, let's put our hands together for this dynasty [Intro] Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the 8th wonder of the world The flow of the century, always timeless, HOV! Thanks for coming out tonight You could've been anywhere in the world, but you're here with me I appreciate that [Verse 1] H to the izz-O, V to the izz-A For shizzle my nizzle used to dribble down in VA Was herbin' em in the home of the Terrapins, got it dirt cheap for them Plus if they was short with cheese I would work with them Brought in weed, got rid of that dirt for them Wasn't born hustlers, I was birthing 'em H to the izz-O, V to the izz-A For sheezy my neezy keep my arms so breezy Can't leave rap alone, the game needs me Haters want me clapped in chrome, it ain't easy Cops want to knock me, D.A. wants to 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 b**h! [Hook] H to the izz-O, V to the izz-A For 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 y'all got to feel me H to the izz-O, V to the izz-A That's the anthem, get'cha damn hands up! [Verse 2] I do this for my culture To let them know what a n***a look like when a n***a in a roaster Show them how to move in a room full of vultures Industry is shady, it needs to be taken over Label owners hate me, I'm raising the status quo up I'm overcharging n***as for what they did to the Cold Crush Pay us like you owe us for all the years that you hoed us We can talk, but money talks, so talk more bucks [Hook] H to the izz-O, V to the izz-A For 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 y'all got to feel me H to the izz-O, V to the izz-A That's the anthem, get'cha damn hands up! [Verse 3] Hov is back, life stories told through rap n***as acting like I sold you crack Like I told you sell d**; no, Hov did that So hopefully you won't have to go through that I was raised in the projects, roaches and rats Smokers out back selling their mama's sofa Lookouts on the corner focused on the ave Ladies in the window, focused on the kinfolk Me under a lamppost, why I got my hand closed? Crack's in my palm, watching the long arm of the law So you know I seen it all before I've seen Hoop Dreams deflate like a true fiend's weight To try and to fail: the two things I hate Succeed, and this rap game: the two things that's great H to the izz-O, V to the izz-A What else can I say about dude? I gets bu-sy [Hook] H to the izz-O, V to the izz-A For 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 y'all got to feel me 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 H to the Izz-o, V to the Izz-A H to the Izz-o, V to the Izz-A H to the Izz-o, V to the Izz-A
