Lyrics

Dig a hole, bury yourself, nigga!
Go head! keep goin!
I got some nice dresses for you guys
The incomparable h.o

Told ya to get ya money when you see a boss comin
Thought shit was funny, but watch what you say now
What you say, now?
Nothin' left to accomplish, I done came out and conquered
And now what's that you talking bout we gon see, now?
We gon see, now
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Go head, muthafucka, bury yourself
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole

I'm still here, mon frere!
I know the cross I bear
They like, "that's why they call you hov"
I'm like, "yeah"
I'm like air, lil shots go through me
Won't tear one tissue, no tears, no tissue, not an issue
Don't cry for me
I peep these niggas from deep
Got a front row seat even if you don't speak
Silent partner, I hear you loud and clear
Left a fingerprint, you ain't gotta be there
I'm just waiting til' you dig a hole big enough to put your whole body in
Then i'm gon body them
Its nothing but a hobby to him
Simple as a serve in volley to him
Niggas like, "hov, why don't you get at ol' boy?"
Why kill a puppet and leave geppetto alive?
Why not wait to catch them all together?
That's why you dig one big hole, one time

Told ya to get ya money when you see a boss comin
Thought shit was funny, but watch what you say now
We gon see now!
Nothin' left to accomplish, I done came out and conquered
And now what's that you talking bout we gon see, now?
We gon see, playa!
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Go head, bury yaself
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Go head!

House niggas, this is me
I made it possible
For niggas to make history
How is this possible?
Please explain this shit to me
How is it logical?
Have we forgotten our history?
Let's open our bibles
Its like the disciples, this is jesus we comin'
His rivals shunning the one thing that they owe they life to
You let that man hype you to go against your idol
Knowing good and god damn well this what I do
Think i'm in the office, i'm off my grind?
That's how kids become orphans-
You lost yo mind?
I keep my enemies close
I give 'em enough rope
They put themselves in the air
I just kick away the chair

Told ya to get ya money when you see a boss comin
Thought shit was funny, but watch what you say now
We gon see now!
Nothin' left to accomplish, I done came out and conquered
And now what's that you talking bout we gon see, now?
We gon see, playa!
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Go head, bury yourself
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Go head! bury yourself!

Hov gon get you, I ain't forget your lil disrespect
No, hoe, daddy gon spank you for that shit you said
Its hard to do when you've got nothing to prove
Everybody know you better, you in a lose? lose!
Cause even when you win, ultimately you lose
Real niggas like, "why hov talking to dude?"
He sellin them lil tools, only time you went plat
My chain was on your neck, that's a natural fact
So i'm prayin' that it spills outside of the booth
That's when ya'll niggas outside of your truth
Outside of your league, that's not what you do
Niggas throwin roc signs outside of your coupe
Don't look at hov like he done something wrong to 'em
Cause he's on to em?
He just took what belonged to him
You niggas is playing checkers with chess-playing hov
This game is over, I don't know if ya'll know
You in the hole

Told ya to get ya money when you see a boss comin
Thought shit was funny, but watch what you say now
We gon see now!
Nothin' left to accomplish, I done came out and conquered
And what's that you talking bout we gon see, now?
We gon see, playa!
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Go head! bury yourself!
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Dig a hole
Go head! bury yourself!
