Key: D# minor•
Verse 1
Ebm
you could determine the worth of a song
within 15 seconds of the playing
With complete and utter lack of the fact
Cb
that it takes all 3 minutes and 40 seconds of
it ain't a hit if it don't ride
Now you couldn't tell me
the components of a smash,
but the ringtones were the all -time high
Ebm
Bb
the flashier the better
Ebm
Cb
They say that money make
Ebm
You never lost till you lose your crown
Bb
Ebm
Or when you're maxing
out your bank account
Cb
Yeah, you do it all just to live the life
Ebm
Even if it means you don't live it right
Db
Ebm
But even if you do,
you won't survive the hype
Of American rappers
With a little money
Just to get a five -wheeled
woodgrain kitty
Ride around town like I never lived in it
Gun in my dash, pray I never kill with it
I'm that real with it,
got my eyes on the prize
Be a steel dude, motherfuck,
nine to five
Searchin' for a freak,
down the fuck once or twice
Wanna buy a bottle,
Cb
Ebm
but I ain't payin' my taxes
Bb
Ebm
It's no lie, I got a vision and a master plan
To hit the block and blow up like the Taliban
Or make it where my plane
never have to land
Or make it where them lames
Cb
Ebm
never stand to change
Bb
Ebm
She a Chanel, only time will tell
It's either starve or you find a skill
You either bind or you're tryin' to sell
Gb
Ebm
You either fall or you grind the rails
They say that money make
Ebm
You never lost till you lose your crown
And they don't love you till
your bank account
Yeah, you do it all just to live the life
Bb
Ebm
Even if it means you
don't live it right
Cb
Ebm
An d even if it means
you don't survive the night
But even if you do,
you won't survive the hype
So I just get a hot leave
Waiting on my mama screaming,
fuck how they feel
Dr. Jail cells and a pig down to kill
They shot Oscar Grant,
Cb
Ebm
swear he gave a n***a cheap
Bb
Ebm
Let's keep it real,
if you ain't lookin' then your eyes closed
Will I pay what I owe?
Only God knows I ain't for show,
give me strength just to change what I can
And understand the deal
between a n***a
Bb
Ebm
and the king that I am
Gotta keep your finger on the trigger
Pac died, Biggie died,
they ain't found the killers
Mama say she worried
cause I rap about the government
Cb
Ebm
And how the church can 't
Bb
Ebm
double people out to struggle
But that's real though,
I just call it how it is, folk
I'm breathing for a reason,
what you here for?
They got us where the villains
do what you're for
Cause they murdered all the heroes
They say that money
you lose your crown
And they don't love you till
out your bank account
Yeah, you do it all just to live the life
Bb
Ebm
Even if it means you
don't live it right
Cb
Ebm
An d even if it means
you don't survive the night
Db
Ebm
But even if you do,
you won't survive the hype
