I Ain’t Gonna Hold You

[Napoleon Da Legend verse]
We don’t get paid vacation or sick leave
The game’ll give you a pink slip
Though if you slip
Hidden jealousies
Be careful of them dudes who grin
Circle stay solid
Still I got a few new friends
Some got snipped
Nipped it at the bud real quick
Thinking I don’t see it
When you try to act slick
Mainly I stay vocal
Other parts I adlib
Numb to the pain
Like an ibuprofen tablet
Electronic money
Now the system is cashless
Feel lucky I found
Something for which I was passionate
Some days I felt rich
Some days my cash dipped
Sometimes thе biz slow
Sometimes you catch licks
Copping 2 dollar tacos with drinks
Life’s a moviе
The cast change like broken limbs
Weather changes
Strep in my throat with phlegm
Resting the body
And it’s best not to overthink

[Napoleon Da Legend Chorus]
I ain’t gonna hold you
Just respect and dap me when I roll through
And I keep
Moving like I’m supposed to
And keep conquering just like I told you

I ain’t gonna hold you
Just respect and dap me when I roll through
And I keep
Moving like I’m supposed to
And keep conquering just like I told you

[Napoleon Da Legend verse]
Kinks in my armor
Find one I’ll shoot you
Checks you got for me
Just cut em
I salute you
African print on my jacket
Shaka Zulu
Yall cats sound forced
Like RZA voice from Hulu
What you doing it for?
Nah
What you doing it for?
I'm in the trenches
Like Ralph McDaniels with a camera
Real first person point of view on the canvas
Traveling to big shows
With city transit
While they switched up
I stuck to transcript
Handshakes grip tight
Henny with ice
The type of chicks
Staring at me yo plenty would like
And yo kid you nice
We gotta work on something
Knowing damn well shit is lie
These dudes fronting
Built my own shit
Never need them for nothing
That’s word to my babies motherfucker

[Napoleon Da Legend Chorus]
I ain’t gonna hold you
Just respect and dap me when I roll through
And I keep
Moving like I’m supposed to
And keep conquering just like I told you

I ain’t gonna hold you
Just respect and dap me when I roll through
And I keep
Moving like I’m supposed to
And keep conquering just like I told you
