lyrics

Rock On

Check 1
Check 2
And ya don’t stop
Maintain the block, don’t stop the rock (2x)

Check 1
Check 2
And ya don’t stop
Maintain the block, don’t stop the rock (2x)

Verse 1 [Lyric Jones]
I rock on, been building my path
Yeah it’s cobblestone
still I get my walk on.
Been kinda bumpy along the way
Yet, Still I’m not gone
At this point, I just grab a seat and make some popcorn
Salute to those who made it early for the previews
It’s time to dim the theater lights I know you read the reviews
I’m Rated R, for too real
Getting the rock on sealed the deal
Wrestling with my life’s Game Plan, on the field
The key is to peel back the curtain, swas’ too comfy wit my demo reel
I move the crowd in my stiletto heels
Time keep on slipping to the future
2020 seal
2020 feels heavy, singing D scales
I’m Lyte as a rock, this audio two detailed
I get money, money I got retail
Bars only garments to cop,
But ain’t for resale

Check 1
Check 2
Maintain the block, don’t stop the rock (2x)

Verse 2 [Lyric Jones]
I rock on, like Death Valley
How I move is a mystery
I kept talli
Of every small to big victory
Even when Hip Hop grew more contradictory
still was at the pep rally
Cuz I marvel at the history
Peace to
Coke La Rock
T La Rock
Pete Rock
Would run to turn up Rock Box when the beat dropped
Nowadays my feet stop
Hard to find my sweet spot
Now I’m the handing out curriculum to detox
From the aftermath of weak thoughts
I’ma keep rolling, folk try’n stonewall my efforts
I'm on the field now, s’been awhile since a red shirt
Suiting up, pray I’m rock solid under pressure
And spirit of discernment to see behind the gestures
Ya got shot, cuz ya knock knock knock
Who’s there
Jones, muhfuckin hard rock

Check 1
Check 2
And ya don’t stop
Maintain the block, don’t stop the rock (2x)

Ya got shot, cuz ya knock knock knock
Who’s there?
It’s just my niggas dot, dot, dot….
