Verse 1
An (F major) d they ain't all once told me
you could de (A minor) termine the worth of a song
within 15 seconds of the playing
With complete and utter lack of the fact
that it takes all 3 minutes and 40 seconds (F major) of
a song to comprehend what (E major) I'm saying
It (A minor) ain't a single if it don't fly,
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
And a rap is (F major) only as big as a chain,
(A minor) the flash (E major) ier the better
They say (A minor) that (F major) money make
the world go round (E major)
You nev (A minor) er lost till you lose your crown
And they don't (F major) love you till
you're underground (A minor)
Or (E major) (A minor) when you're maxing
out your bank account
Yeah, you do it (F major) all just to live the life
(A minor) Even if it means you don't live it right
An (F major) d even if it means
you don't survive (A minor) the night
(G major) But (A minor) 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,
but I (F major) ain't payin' my (A minor) taxes
(E major) It's no lie, (A minor) 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
(F major) never stand (A minor) to change
She (E major) (A minor) a Chanel, only time will tell
It's either starve or you find a skill
You either bind or you're tryin' to sell
You (C major) either fall (A minor) or you grind the rails
They say that money make
the world go round (E major)
You (A minor) never lost till you lose your crown
And they don't love you till
you're underground (E major)
Or (A minor) when you're maxing out
your bank account
Yeah, you do it all just to live the life
(E major) Even (A minor) if it means you
don't live it right
An (F major) d even if it (A minor) 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,
swear he (F major) gave a n***a (A minor) cheap
(E major) Let's keep it (A minor) 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
(E major) and the king that I (A minor) 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
And (F major) how the church can (A minor) 't
double people out (E major) to struggle (A minor)
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
make the world go round (E major)
You're (A minor) never lost till
you lose your crown
And they don't love you till
you're under (F major) ground
(A minor) Or when you're maxing
out your bank account
Yeah, you do it all just to live the life
(E major) Even (A minor) if it means you
don't live it right
An (F major) d even if it (A minor) means
you don't survive the night
(G major) But (A minor) even if you do,
you won't survive the hype
