(Statik Selektah)
Is it the love?
The love
The love
Is it the love?
The love
The love
Is it the love? (Yeah)
The love (yeah), the love

This for us, eating choke sandwiches watching 106
Rapping in a tape recorder saying, "They gon' f*ck with this"
If anything I'm happy I could show my people something different
And be a guiding light when others just don't see their vision
I feel it's only right I'm grateful for the way I'm living
I come from people ravaged by war
Post-traumatic discord
Trying harder not to add to my wrongs
Hoping the plague shadow passes my door
I am my grandfather, smile big and demand honor
Chuggin' Sam LAger and never flip for a damn dollar
A lil' fucked up in the head 'cause this world sick
Copped a couple acres looking up like, "Boy this land ours"
And they ain't taking it from us
We own it all off the strength nothing fake in my come up
Making sure the birds the only thing that's waking my son up
I'm thinking Jah daily sun up to sun up
We really do it for the love

The love keep you going when the weather getting rough
The love keep you focused when you really wanna run
The love keep give you motive when you feeling like you done
Like you done
Yo, it's the love (love)
Love (love)
Is it the love? (Love)
The love
Yo, it's the love
The love (love)
The love (love)
Is it the love? (Yeah)

2011 I was working as an intern
Knew that wasn't lasting 'cause I wasn't doing bitch work
Call me cocky I was never taking shit from nobody
I'd rather say I got my stripes from my own merit
And every year I grinded on my own I got more leverage
A&rs noticing that I don't plateau ever
Make a couple million and show up in a ol' Jetta
The way I made it here probably fucking they whole head up
It's 2021 and now I'm older and know better
My haters punching, and my lines punching with no setup
Addicted to the grind 'cause I love it
I got the industry watching for what I got in my oven
I'm getting up at my lowest
And if I wrote it they trust it
Created sonnets and poems
Conveying to you what love is
I'm giving it to you broken
And still, you cherished and want it
You love me openly homie
And that's exactly what love is
Yeah, we do it for the love

The love keep you going when the weather getting rough
The love keep you focused when you really wanna run
The love keep give you motive when you feeling like you done
Like you done
Yo, it's the love (love)
Love (love)
The love (Love)
Love (love)
Yo, it's the love (love)
The love (love)
Is it the love? (Love)
The love, the love

Love is patience, perseverance, consideration
Deeper than appearances quick to air out the imitation
Bring out your power and pushing you past your limitations
Taking you to your destiny and your liberation
Love is real, love will get you up that hill
Love is when the sun is shining warming up your window sill
Love is truth, love is speaking loving to the youth
Even when it's tough never know what they be going through
Love is you, love is me
Love is us, love is we
Making everything better for all the babies wherever
Why should we struggle for dol-ey
When we can hustle together
And if you ever get lonely I hope you open this letter
It's all love

Is it the love? (Love, the love, the love)
The love (love, the love, the love)
The love (love, the love, the love)
Is it the love? (Is it the love?)
The love (love, the love, the love)
The love (love, the love, the love)
Is it the love? (Love, the love, the love)
The love, the love
