Verse 1
Em
D

I'm about to take everybody back to the basics
Em

I'm historical an oracle

event is about to occur
C

Because a motherfucker put
Em

these raps in the matrix

And I'm a terror when I spit
C

it on tracks full of hatred
Em

But there's beauty in the dark,

just put it in yo mouth
C

And the flows like hmm,
Em

like that when you taste it

Commin' at niggas like a disciple of death,

you would think

I'm poppin' a rifle or tech,

I'm aimin' right for the neck

Yo' momma might as well call up the

funeral home so she can
D
Em

Right em' a check,

a vile of dialect. That's why they feelin' me

A trilogy, a horror is what I become

so they call me Jason Vorhee

Oops I mean chasin' more cheese,
C
Em

niggas gotta pay some more fees

Hot enough to brake a thermometer
C

from another planet I kill em'
Em

From here to Andromeda,
C
Em

astronomer because I'm out of the galaxy

Challenge me I will disintegrate

yo' body like a particle

Follow you into a corridor at 4 in the mornin'
C

so I can horrify you
Em

Rite before I slaughter you. My boys sayin'

they don't think I'm comin'
C
Em

So you know a nigga gotta get em' all.
E

Then Ima' be murderin' em'
Em

Like a serial killer then Ima hide
C
Em

em' in the sealing and the wall

Fuck em' all. Niggas will never

get next to this

I rock a rollie so I flex the wrist. Ima

blow up and sit in yo' place

Then through up shit in yo' place

like the exorcist

You can't mess with this

Em

a nigga might touch you

Since the recession It's

been hard on the streets
C
Em

So a nigga comin' hard on the beats,

no order in the hood

I remember when niggas would get into it,

They would have to take
C
Em

problems to chief

Now they don't give a fuck

Or who they be robbin'

or what you ride

leavin' you desceased

Fuck up anybody that try

to do damage

The block is the planet
C

and shorty is too buck
Em

For there to be peace, so I carry a piece

But I don't wana' shoot cuz'

I already wana'

See some of my niggas

locked up in jail home

Instead of hollerin' at em' on
C

a cell phone
Em

R.I.P cuz' my lil' brother Rel' gone

We need to find another way to

get it instead of always

Being on the attack full of hatred

Or get smacked in the face with

the reality of death

If we don't get back to the basics

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
