Play The Music
[Hook]
"Play the music]

[Verse]
Music had me at a loss for words
Wanted to spit but I lost the urge
Driving on a rainy night, wheels start to swerve
Lost control and hydroplane, ran up on the curb
Made it off and played some Marvin Gaye to ease the nerves
Started thinking 'bout them rhymes I had written up
And so many nights a n***a tried to give it up
Cause I was tired of n***as shitting us
Fucking with these dickhead club promoters and shiesty distributors
They never recognize the real when they hear it
For a while it was fucking with my spirit
Till I ran into a girl younger than me
High school, she had [?], but said she heard me on the Internet
And ran up on me like, "Yo your joints are real tight
I heard Away From Me and know just what you feel like
Your verse ended and my tears I couldn't hold back
I just wanna thank y'all for bringing soul back
Cause we need 'em
I bet Dylan is cute, I'd like to meet him
And say 'What's up' to Pooh and 9th next the time you see 'em."
I told her I would do so but I had to keep stepping
Gave her a pound and a hug and we exchanged addresses
Jumped back in the whip with no feelings of hope
Put a tear to the eye and a lump in the throat
And right then is when I start to see
Unquestionable
The reason why they play the music is me
Motherfuckers
