[Chorus: Beleaf]

Protect ya' life, right now

Protect ya' life

Protect ya' life, right now

Protect ya' life

Protect ya' life, right now

Protect ya' life

Now, check it out

Now, check it out


[Verse 1: Beleaf]

Now look the apple don’t fall far from trees, right

I’m in the land of milk and honey with the bees, like

And if I'm reaping up what I’m sowing with my seeds, like

Now check it out

I been a father since I was a toddler

I would teach ya

Mother father, how to reach the father

I would either

Never bother my mother

See I’m my brother's keeper

If you digging what I'm saying

We could go deeper


[Interlude]

(I dig it

I dig it, dig it

I dig it, dig it)

You dig it!

(I dig it

I dig it, dig it

I dig it, dig it)

You dig it!


[Verse 2: Beleaf]

I dug it with good soil

I hope you love it

I love it, I got no other

Put none above it

I focus on what the funk is

Don’t know what soap is

I’m sipping toddler tears

And chewing on flying locust

Got locomotives

I’m burning like the alcohol did

When we was living out

The lyrics of that song, Showbiz

At marquees

I usually show up at party

And yo, I’m hella low maintenance

I could eat some sardines

And that’s outer space

That’s mercury

I’m strong like my daddy

I’m Hercules

That’s too deep, you sleep

You hopped over the fence, you sheep

You slept on me

My last album is weaponry

One of my kids, you rappers

One of my kids, all y’all

I’m trying to steal you shine boy

Bobblehead in the [?]

Above all


[Chorus]

Protect ya' life, right now

Protect ya' life

Protect ya' life, right now

Protect ya' life

Protect ya' life, right now

Protect ya' life

Now, check it out


[Verse 3: Beleaf]

Next level

Guaranteed my next level

My whole wrist ain’t covered in heavy metal

That’s mega face

Make a wish, I wish you would

I make a video and brings parents into your hood

My car got stolen the other day

And I blame the devil

I'm feeling like a mountain

Tribulations like a pebble

Talk to God on my behalf

If you could fit that in your schedule

Your boy needs some sleep

The baby screaming like a kettle

Tell him I’ve been feeling weak

So when I'm leaning on the cross

And screaming bloody murder

Cause you know it’s bleeding when they floss

And oh my gosh, I’m feeling nauseous

I’ve been sipping on the sauce

I’m feeling cautious

I’m feeling caught up

Like Anaia’s applesauce


[Chorus]

Protect ya' life, right now

Protect ya' life

Protect ya' life, right now

Protect ya' life

Protect ya' life, right now

Protect ya' life

Now, check it out


[Outro]

And I believe there’s no ‘I’ in Beleaf because

The word Belief got ‘lie’ in up in it cuz

And I believe there’s no ‘I’ in Beleaf because

The word Belief got ‘lie’ in up in it cuz

And I believe there’s no ‘I’ in Beleaf because

The word Belief got ‘lie’ in up in it cuz

And I believe there’s no ‘I’ in Beleaf because

The word Belief got ‘lie’ in up in it cuz


[Narration]

Oh and speaking of the Hip-Hop baby

Everything’s gotta come to an end y’know

She’s been good to me and I’ve been good to her

I’ve told her some sweet things

I’ve told her some lies and

I’ve told her some things she wasn’t ready to hear

But that’s her problem

Hip-Hop it’s over

And I mean, I’m gonna come by and see ya sometime

But I’m just not gonna put my full stock in you

Y’know what I'm saying

Hip-Hop, you’re beautiful

But you’re not mine
