    Verse 1
    They go 
    one 
    for 
    the Prophet, 

    two for 
    Islam 

    Three 
    for 
    the 
    Khutba from 
    the 
    Imam 

    Four 
    for 
    the 
    mother 
    that 

    birthed my frame 

    Five for 
    the father 
    'cause 

    he taught 
    me 
    game 

    Been 
    'round 
    the world, 

    songs 
    are all 
    the same 

    Sometimes 
    when I'm 
    asleep 

    I still 
    call 
    your name 

    Back 
    when I 
    was young 

    I used 
    to 
    dream of 
    fame 

    Now 
    they all 
    point 
    they fingers 

    saying 
    who's to blame 

    Mothers 
    put 
    their girls 
    into 
    pigtail 
    curls 

    Fathers 
    teach 
    their sons 
    how 

    to shoot 
    their guns 

    They say, 
    "Boy 
    don't never 
    cry 

    control 
    your emotions 

    Just take 
    it like 
    a man, 

    make 
    your 
    stand" 

    They say, 

    "Sex 
    and violence 
    go 
    hand 
    in 
    hand" 

    For 
    every 
    man 
    blessed 

    there got 
    to be 
    ten 
    damned 

    Ex
    pand 
    through 
    the 
    depths 

    of 
    space 
    and 
    time 

    Standing 
    three eyes 
    blind 

    on 
    the 
    firing 
    line 

    Word to 
    my man 
    divine, 
    come too 
    far 

    Singing 
    la 
    ilaha 
    il 
    allah 

    Twelve 
    rakahs short 
    on 
    my 
    full 

    day's 
    prayer 

    Just hoping 
    that 
    the lord 
    got 

    some mercy 
    to spare 

    They go 
    one 
    for 
    the 
    ummah, two 

    for 
    the deen 

    Three 
    for 
    the angels, 

    four for 
    the 
    alamin 

    Somewhere 
    between 
    totally 

    obscene 

    And perfectly 
    clean, 

    got a Babylon 
    feeling' 

    Wounds that need 
    healing', truth 

    need 
    revealing' 

    Hands 
    need 
    washing' from all 

    the dirty 
    dealing' 

    From the 
    floor 
    to 
    the 
    ceiling', from 

    the stage 
    to 
    the 
    door 

    From the kings 
    and 
    the 
    queens 

    and 
    the slaves 
    and the 
    whores 

    For 
    every 
    lost 
    cause 
    where 

    the martyrs 
    are 
    found 

    That funky 
    little sound, 

    that make 
    you want 
    to get 
    down 

    Some
    body 
    told 
    me once, 

    love 
    makes the world 
    go 
    round 

    Now kids 
    they carry 
    pistols 

    out on 
    the playground 

    That 
    profound, 
    gone too 
    far. 

    Praying 
    to 
    the light 
    from a 
    burned 
    out star 

    Put 
    your 
    lights 
    on, 

    put down 
    your crosses 

    It's time 
    to tally 
    up 
    your wins 

    and 
    your losses 

    They go 
    one 
    for Scott 
    La Rock 

    Two 
    for Pac 
    and 
    B.I.G. 

    And 
    three 
    for all 
    the mothers 

    who 
    got graves 
    to 
    dig 

    For all 
    the mothers 
    who 
    got graves 
    to 
    dig 

    For 
    all 
    the 
    mothers 
    who 
    got 
    graves 
    to dig

    • 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.
