    now, 
    I'mma 
    die 
    try
    in', 

    I'mma 
    die 
    tryin' 

    And some
    times 
    I get weak 

    from walking

    Verse 2
    Before 
    we 
    came 
    being 
    in southern 

    wasn't 
    something 
    to claim 

    The 
    fact 
    was
    n't something 
    too 

    fly 
    it 
    was something 
    to blame 

    Smilin' 
    and 
    juckin' and jivin' 

    I was so 
    ashamed 

    They gave the 
    dirty 
    appar

    ently 
    appro
    priate 
    name 

    I wrote 
    about 
    a revolution 

    and sung 
    from 
    the soul 

    Spoke 
    with my spirit 
    and 
    mind 

    my 
    ambition 
    was blind 

    Answer
    ing 
    the call 
    of God 

    like 
    a child 
    obey
    ing 

    Preaching 
    the 
    very 
    same power 
    they 

    killed 
    Martin 
    for say
    ing 

    Verse 3
    But you 
    can't 
    break 
    the mold 
    and not 

    holding 
    your breath 

    Thought if 
    died 
    for ya, 

    that 
    would be 
    an honorable 
    death 

    So sin
    cere 
    my 
    eyes 
    begin to 

    swell 
    up in tear 

    And it's clear 
    my music 

    may not 
    do 
    well 
    up in here 

    Oh 
    my 
    God 
    being 
    a nigga 

    must be 
    a good payin' 
    job 

    With 
    all the 
    fringe 
    bene
    fits, 

    ignorance 
    is bliss 

    There is 
    time 
    and 
    the place 

    for everybody's 
    taste 

    But 
    know 
    too 
    much 
    and I 
    owe too 
    much 

    Verse 4
    See 
    there's no 
    way 
    and there's 
    no 
    how 

    I'd 
    ever 
    stop 
    now, 
    I'mma 
    die 
    try
    in', 

    I'mma 
    die 
    tryin' 

    And some
    times 
    I get weak 

    from walking 
    the road 
    I'm 
    on 

    But I'mma 
    keep 
    on, 
    I'mma 
    die 
    try
    in', 

    Verse 5
    I'mma 
    die 
    tryin' 

    So here 
    it is, 

    an invitation 
    to 
    an open 
    book 

    A painful 
    past 
    my heart 
    is still 

    broken 
    look 

    I know you 
    don't hate 
    me 
    it's not 
    assured 

    that anyone 
    appre
    ciate 
    me 

    See I've 
    been having 
    a hard 
    time 

    selling my 
    album's lately 

    In recent 
    news 
    the source 
    couldn't find 

    any microphones 
    to rate 
    me 

    Using 
    words 
    I could 
    scream 

    an alternative 
    to 
    equate 
    me 

    Which 
    is true 
    I'm in a box 
    with a view 

    would you still 
    wanna 
    date 
    me? 

    I could be 
    a pretty 
    good thug 
    but it 

    wouldn't compare 
    to 
    great 
    me 

    Verse 6
    The 
    final cross 
    to bear 
    is mine 

    it's not 
    a cross 
    to share 

    But isn't 
    it ironic 
    still woulda 
    bought 

    a cross 
    to wear 

    That obviously 
    cost 
    to wear 

    but 
    considerably 
    less 

    Than 
    the price 
    that it 
    costs 
    to care 

    Now I have 
    another 
    loss 
    to spare 

    I doubt 
    'em say 
    that I can't 
    win 

    Even 
    though I 
    know talking 

    intelligent 
    just 
    ain't in 

    You most 
    likely to 
    go broke 

    when you 
    just 
    can't 
    bend 

    So me 
    and J J 
    both 
    gon' 
    have 
    to pay 
    bills 

    Verse 7
    See 
    there's 
    no 
    way 
    and there's 
    no 
    how 

    I'd 
    ever 
    stop 
    now, 
    I'mma 
    die 
    try
    in', 

    I'mma 
    die 
    tryin' 

    And 
    some
    times 
    I get weak 

    from walking 
    the road 
    I'm 
    on 

    But I'mma 
    keep 
    on, 
    I'mma 
    die 
    tryin', 

    I'mma 
    die 
    tryin' 

    Listen, 
    people 
    still 
    Verse 8
    standin' 
    in 
    line 

    at the world 
    party 
    for 
    some soul 
    food 

    To get 
    put back 
    in that 
    old 
    mood 

    they 
    say, we 
    like the new 
    'lo 

    And 
    we respect 
    everything 

    that you 
    trying to do 
    'lo 

    Do 
    what you 
    do 
    but just 
    do more 

    that 
    you 
    know 

    It's a catch 
    22 and 
    I couldn't 
    cry 

    Now 
    I'm under 
    oath 
    with 
    them both 

    and 
    I couldn't 
    lie 

    Verse 9
    Cussed 
    'em said 
    that I'm too 

    dope 
    and 
    I couldn't 
    fly 

    But 
    you getting 
    rich 
    talkin' 
    shit 

    so why 
    shouldn't 

    I'm just 
    playing 
    but 
    I guess that 

    couldn't go 
    without 
    saying 

    I'm just 
    gon' ride 
    this revolution 
    until they stop 

    me where 
    I'm stayin' 

    But I ain't 
    gotta have 
    to lie 
    to ya 

    to make it 
    sound 
    fly 
    to ya 

    I keep 
    my 
    feet 
    on the ground 

    and bring 
    the 
    sky 
    to ya 

    Verse 10
    See 
    there's 
    no 
    way 
    and there's 
    no 
    how 

    I'd 
    ever stop 
    now, 
    I'mma 
    die 
    tryin', 

    I'mma 
    die 
    tryin' 

    And sometimes 
    I get weak 

    from walking 
    the road 
    I'm 
    on 

    But 
    I'm
    ma 
    keep 
    on, 
    I'mma 
    die 
    tryin', 

    I'mma 
    die 
    try
    in'

      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

      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 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
