For Da Love Of Da Game
DJ Jazzy Jeff Lyrics

I got love for the game that's why I'm rhyming always stay in the booth
I have a deep passion for the music industry, which is why I am constantly writing and recording songs.

Never lying to the people always telling the truth
I always strive to be authentic and honest in my lyrics, never deceiving my audience.

I feel the bass in my chest give power to songs
The strong presence of the bass in my music adds intensity and significance to my tracks.

Girl ripping when I'm home about the hours I'm gone
My partner often complains about the amount of time I spend away from home due to my dedication to my music career.

I can't help it the studio where Paul be at
I am irresistibly drawn to the recording studio, a place where I find comfort and inspiration.

Tried to walk away from it but it called me back
I attempted to distance myself from music, but its allure and passion compelled me to return.

Forget my pride shit I even quit my job
I was willing to let go of my ego and even resign from my regular job in order to pursue my true love, music.
