First things first,
D
I just - got through, goin through
G
This ordeal, dealin with deals,
you know the deal
I've dealt with, bein dealt dirty,
downsized
And duped,
done double- paid my dues, for real
D
I just - know today's degree, C lesson
G
D
Not nowadays, can a record label fool me
G
So the understanding'll be
'The Best Part'
No need to guess how this
rocky road was meant to be
I just - got home from a long tour
Seashore to seashore, J- Live up the party
So, even if I'm unknown back
home (say what)
Step out of the time zone,
these folks came to see me!
I just - grab the mic, jump on the stage
Soak up the crowd,
G
hittin 'em with page after page of
G
Blood, sweat, tears, saliva, sperm, snot
G
Shit, piss, throw- up, everything I GOT!
D
I just - let it all out, give it all back
G
Like I got it, why? Cause I got it like that
Eb
I've been spotted by those
that recognize the fact that
G
God is still black and bullshit
is still wack! (wack!)
