Shake it loose
Shake it loose
Shake it loose
Why is everything a problem? Why is everything a beef with you?
Not tired of playing games that you always lose
Turning your brain to mush with that rhythm and booze
Dissin' love from those that always cared for you
Back then you didn't listen to what was true
Now it's all we wanna hear, wanna hear it from you
It's not about right, it's not about wrong
Like Marvin Gaye said, let's get it on
Shake that monkey off your back, shake it loose
Break these chains, and this noose
Not gunna hunt you, hunt no more
Shake that monkey off your back and free your soul
Back in the day I did a lot of things wish I could have changed
Back in the day I seen stuff that stayed the same
My brothers used to say, don't be scared of life
My mama used to say, she'll make everything alright
Back then you didn't listen to what was true
Now it's all we wanna hear, wanna hear it from you
It's not about right, it's not about wrong
Like Marvin Gaye said, Let's get it on
Shake that monkey off your back, shake it loose
Break these chains, and this noose
Not gunna hunt you, hunt no more
Shake that monkey off your back and free your soul
Shake it Loose
Shake it loose
Shake it loose
