Verse 2
No (A minor) time to (E major) get all excited, just write it
From (A minor) the inside (E major) let the pen slide,
an (D major) d spread
The (A major) ink on the (D major) papyrus,
(E major) come under (D major) stand this (A major) (what?)
Paint the (E major) canvas, givin' you my vision
To (A minor) mold you, com (E major) pose you
Get a (D major) picture of the (A major) scene,

(D major) Squirt me in your (A minor) vein,
maintain on the (E major) couch

(yo kid kinda nice!)
From the (A minor) word, I (E major) speak, unique,
(A minor) clear and concise
(E major) Heads I'm boring,
soaring to a new height of flight
And then fight the night
With a (A minor) light to gain sight make

Makin all butt crews dis (A minor) perse (E major)

Like an immaculate conception,

(A major) Went through label (E major) pains,
didn't give shorty a (D major) name
I put, (A major) bros before (E major) hoes that's

or you gon' (A major) be like
"I (E major) can't believe it! (D major) I got shot!"

Now (A minor) them same gumps be askin'
me to (D major) get them in
