*Representt for hip hop not for rap yo*

*Representt for hip hop not for rap*

[Paul Yams]

I got love for the game that's why I'm rhyming always stay in

the booth

Never lying to the people always telling the truth

I feel the bass in my chest give power to songs

Girl ripping when I'm home about the hours I'm gone

I can't help it the studio where paul be at

Tried to walk away from it but it called me back

Forget my pride shit I even quit my job

For the one that I love to work music

Recognised by my art that I spill in my game

Pour my heart on the track and have you feeling my pain

Seen a lot of hard times on the way to success

When I'm mad writing a rhyme is my way to express

Lay back and fall deep in a verse

If I was out in the street yo I probably lay a sleep in a hearse

There's nothing like when you on a mic tearing a track

Then you come from out the booth and start hearing it back

Everybody their love the sound that's why they give you hugs and

pounds

Now you know you was spittin it

You got the whole run vibing the same

You ain't doing this for dollars and chains

You got love for the game

Love what you do

And do what you Love (for the game)

*Represent for hip hop not for rap yo*

Love what you do

And do what you Love (for the game)

*Represent for hip hop not for rap*

(yo im feeling you yams do the same thing yo)

[Baby Blak]

For the love of the game

I only deal with dollars and change

Switch places from big faces one in the same

With Snares and kicks prepared to mix

In the both till I'm dead

No roof on my head

Even tools in the shed

Got a place to stay

But a place to lay?

That's what I deal with on a day to day

Phone off heat off loan sharks spaghetti no meat balls

At least yall can eat y'all

Feel my strain on a cloudy feel my rain

No food no drink just hunger pains

Thinkin everyday who this chrome 'gone kill

Smile in women face for a home cooked meal

Right now I hate my life

But love the way I write

For real I think I seen my death

Think I like bumming cheese from Jeff?

Pockets of my jeans on e and they seems on f

I'm a hard working all nighter ASCAP sesac song writer worldwide

weedhead bong lighta (lp version)

Feel my blood and tears

But my love is the drug that got me loved and revered from thugs

for years

It's the game yo

-BabyBlakKat copywrite2002(c)-

Love what you do

And do what you Love (for the game)

*Represent for hip hop and not for rap yo*

Love what you do

And do what you Love (for the game)

*Represent for hip hop and not for rap*

Yo blak it seem like we both feeling the same

Remember when I walked away and you were still in the game? (uh

ha)

That shit was hot I'm still feeling the flame

Plus you never forgot every other verse spilling my name

Chilling with dames to will they range killin their brain with

game

If not cousin I be still on the train

Like you said we ain't willing to change

I'm feeling you maing

Damn see family and we

Stick together

Shows overseas spit together

No doubt for the love of the game

We gonna keep staying the same

When you not around laying your dame

Getting paper from a play in a lane

Keep heat for any hater wanna test the rap

And even more on the wax so sat jeff is phat

I attest to that

Still walk with dressroom back

Same ghetto

Same whip

Still stressed on wack

Just wanna back yall nothin less than that

Just want some cash cars and them records with blak

It's just a game yo

But whether or not

I still got love for hip hop

It's the game

Love what you do

And do what you Love (for the game)

*Represent for hip hop and not for rap yo*

Love what you do

And do what you Love (for the game)
