[Em] [A] [E]
[D] [E] [D]
[A] [D]
Who is there?
The box that's keepin' all the action
Who [Em] [A]
is [D] there?
That always gets our hot reaction
That's the news
Don't you go makin' no more jokes
I'm gonna do
I'm [Bm] [G] gonna do
[D] Don't be coppin'
You're at [A] the cube
You ain't the dude [D] Ain't nobody Ain't [Em] nobody
[D] [A] Hey [F] everybody in the neighborhood
The beat is on you to better hear me good
It's to [E] eat that tomato brother, drink that balloon
Something poppin' on down, better listen to my game
I graduated from the college of the streets
I got a PhD in Hollywood against me
[A] Inflation and the Grecian don't bother me
Cause I'm a scholar worth a dollar, you can blame the [Em] savior
Ain't no where to go, ain't no good
Ain't nobody moves, I feel [Am] like you're barely [Em] moving
Ain't no hood, that's the place
[Am] You can't [Bm] always [Em] find it
It's all broken with a rat's foot
Baby's fallin' up and there's that blood
You're the only one still in
That's the [C] reason [C#] why [E] he's a cube
[D] [E]
Who [D]
is that?
That ain't got time for foolish talkin'
[G] [A] Who [D] is that?
That looks so clean, you can't ignore him

He's a dude
[G]
[F#m] [D] [A] Skullcube, [F] [A] I'm gonna give you back shit
And I don't wish my life on a track
You go to my school, you got the honest rule
You go put your mouth around a check, that's a crime
You [E] never had it, [G] don't pay it no mind
[A] I know you're gonna get [E] it if you dig a little
[C] And pick a piece from the east, a piece from the west
Where [A] it feels good, the [G] dude is the best
Don't [Bm] [Em]

In his own [G]
neighborhood
