Intro 1

F#m

Verse 1
Em 
Where he came up  at,
it was like kill or die
People with guns packed,
living that iller life
A 
F#m 
Where poverty was rampant,
bloody murder in the night
And people striving somewhat,
others wouldn't win the fight
Em 
But see this one dude,
lived on the other side
Of town, a big house,
father and mother tried
A 
F#m 
To give him everything he wanted,
things that others
To have and wanted to obtain,
they taught the brother ride
Em 
From all around then,
crack epidemic hit
The brother selling drugs
C 
Em 
is who the ladies kicked it with
F#m 
It seems they had the most respect
as well as dividends
He got out of going to school
so he could get it in
Bm 
Escape from the plot,
get out, get away
Escape from the plot,
talk to mental elevation
Escape from the plot,
create your situation
Escape from the plot,
and make a better day
Em 
Now as some time passed,
he's in and out the pen
He's had a few kids,
still isn't sinkin' in
F#m 
He's doin' lots of Oxycontin
and some Vicodin
Up on returnin' to the block
to live that life again
Em 
It's full of young guns,
he used to get respect
But now he's turnin' 30
and he's an official wreck
Bm 
His baby mother
F#m 
hardly ever lets him see his kids
His whole crew evolved
with his dad of doin' bids
Em 
Some moved away far,
but still he bangs his block
His family members closest to him
Bm 
Em 
tell him change his spot
A 
F#m 
Of residency, get on out
and let your life unfurl
See you ain't never really trapped
cause we live in the world
Em 
But he's a street dude,
living by street rules
He'd rather die reppin' his block
than ever be through
F#m 
Being respected as an OG's
someone no one dares
To cross but what he doesn't realize
is no one cares
Bm 
Escape from the plot, get out get away
Escape from the plot,
talk to mental elevation
Escape from the plot,
create your situation
Escape from the plot,
and make a better day
Em 
So many young cats
that wanna rep the street
Ain't even from that,
I wish this shit would cease
Bm 
F#m 
How many people that you know
retiring from hustling?
How many growing over 30
that are doing nothing?
Em 
See back in high school,
it was the thing to be in
Instead of living like a nerd,
but hate the things you seeing
Bm 
F#m 
The past ain't nothing like the future,
now the nerd is brawling
And the only thing you got
is lint inside your wallet
Em 
Now as respect goes,
think of a different plan
Instead of gangster,
I would rather be a grown man
A 
F#m 
Because a man   who loses business
building better days
And the gangster
G 
only ends up in a jell -o grave
F#m 
Bm 
Escape from the plot,
get out, get away
Escape from the plot,
doctrinal elevation
Escape from the plot,
create your situation
Escape from the plot,
Em

No matter what people say
