Verse 2
(C major) life is a balance
You lose your (E minor) grip,
you can slip into an abyss
No doubt you see (C major) these niggas trippin'
Ego in charge of every move,
he's a (D major) star
And we can't look (E minor) away
Due to the days that he (D major) caught our hearts
(C major) He's fallin' apart, but we deny it
Justi (F sharp minor) fying that (E minor) half- ass shit he dropped,
(C major) we always buy it
When he tell us he a genius
but it's (D major) clearer lately
(F sharp minor) It's been (E minor) hard for him
to look into the (D major) mirror lately
(C major) There was a time when this nigga was (D major) my hero,
maybe
(F sharp minor) That's the (E minor) reason why
his fall from grace (D major) is hard to take
(C major) 'Cause I believed him when he said
his shit was (D major) purer and he
The type of (E minor) nigga swear he real
but all (D major) around him's fake
(C major) The women, the dickriders, you know,
the (D major) yes men
(F sharp minor) Nobody with the (E minor) balls to say
somethin' to (D major) contest him
(C major) So he grows out of control
(D major) Into the person that he (F sharp minor) truly was (E minor) all along,
it's startin' to (D major) show
Damn, (C major) wonder what happened
Maybe (D major) it's my fault (F sharp minor) for idolizing (E minor) niggas
Based off the words that
he rappin'
(C major) When come to find out,
these niggas don't even (D major) write they shit
Hear some new style bub (E minor) blin'
up, then they bite the shit
(C major) Damn, that's what I get
for lyin' to my (E minor) self
Well, fuck (F sharp minor) it,
what's more (D major) im portant is (E minor) he's cryin' out (D major) for help
While the (C major) world's eggin' him on,
I'm beggin' him to (D major) stop
Playin' his old shit, knowin' he (E minor) won't top it,
false proph (C major) ets
(D major) Somebody shoulda told me it
Verse 3
(D major)
would be like this (E minor)
Be like this, (C major) be like this
Some (D major) body shoulda told
me it would be like this (E minor)
Be like this (D major) (C major) (False proph (D major) ets)
Somebody shoulda told me it
would (F sharp minor) be like (E minor) this
Be like this, (C major) be like this
Some (D major) body shoulda told me it
would (F sharp minor) be like (E minor) this
Yeah, false prophets
Verse 4
I got (C major) a homie, he a rapper and
he wanna win (E minor) bad
He want (D major) the fame, the (E minor) ac claim,
the respect that's been (D major) had
By all the (C major) legends,
so every time I see him, he stress (D major) in'
Talkin' (F sharp minor) 'bout, niggas don't (E minor) fuck with him,
the shit is depress (D major) in'
And I (C major) know he so bitter he can't
see his own (D major) blessings
God (F sharp minor) damn, nigga,
(E minor) you too blind to see you got fans, nigga
(C major) And a platform to make a classic rap song
To (F sharp minor) change a nigga (E minor) life,
but you too anxious livin' (D major) life
Always (C major) worried 'bout the (D major) critics
who ain't ever fuckin' did it
I (F sharp minor) write what's in my (E minor) heart,
don't give a fuck who fuckin' (D major) with it
(C major) But in a sense I can relate,
(D major) the need to be great
Turn (F sharp minor) s into an ob (E minor) session
and keeps a nigga (D major) up late
Writin' (C major) words, (D major) hopin' people
(B minor) ob serve the ded (D major) ication
That (F sharp minor) stirs in you (E minor) constantly,
but intentions get blurred
Do (C major) I do it for the love of the music
or is there (D major) more to me?
Do I want these niggas to wor
(B minor) ship me? (D major) False proph (C major) ets
Some (D major) body shoulda told me it would

Somebody shoulda (D major) told me it
would be like (E minor) this
Yeah, false prophet (C major) s
These rappers insecure (D major) They talk about being a
Verse 6
(F sharp minor)
man so much (D major) I finally
under (E minor) stand that they ain't even sure
(C major) 'Bout who they are and why
they do this
(D major) Guess I'm included in that cat (E minor) egory
As a nigga who done had the glory
(C major) My highest moments come from
tellin' all the (D major) saddest stories
(F sharp minor) I've seen (E minor) in my life,
I be fiendin' to write
Songs (C major) that raise the hair on
my arms
My lowest (D major) moments came from
tryin' too hard
To impress (B minor) some niggas that couldn't
care (C major) if I'm on
Therefore from here on (D major) out, my hair (F sharp minor) grow out
I (E minor) care nothin' 'bout opinions
(C major) I wanna give hope like the foun
(D major) tains you throw pennies in
Hit the store, (E minor) take your diss,
make your wish
(C major) This is dedicated to the (D major) ones who listen
to me on some faithful (E minor) shit
I'm on some thankful shit
But (C major) the real God is in you, not
the music you (D major) coppin'
(F sharp minor) I hear my old (D major) shit and I know I (E minor) can top it,
false proph (C major) ets
Some (D major) body shoulda told me it would
Verse 7
(F sharp minor)

Be like this, (C major) be like this
Some (D major) body shoulda told
me it would (F sharp minor) be like this (E minor)
Be like this (C major) (False prophet (D major) s)
Somebody shoulda told
me it would (F sharp minor) be like this (E minor)
Be like this, (C major) be like this
Some (D major) body shoulda told
me it would (F sharp minor) be like this (E minor)
