Am

Yo they got me handcuffed

I'm down in central booking

Things are fucked up the way

my future's looking

But I'm too fly,

Dm

Make some power moves and tighten

Chumps are leary though,
Dm

they see me as a threat

I'm like the black Dutch Schultz

Am

Five-oh makes makes me want to flip,

Larry Davis style
Dm

Got a nigga depressed,

while he's awaitin' trial
Am

It's OK though,
Dm

cause from grey skies comes blue

Through darkness comes light and I
Am

be known as the Guru

And this I certify we all should be alerted by
Dm

the traps within the system,
Am

our youth is gettin' murdered by

the D.A. says they got

me on a felony
Dm

I'm tryin' to live my life,
Am

so what the fuck is you tellin' me?

The streets are war,

that's what brothers carry weapons for
Dm

And I take the weight as I did before
Am

The next thing you know,

they got me on the radio
Dm

A rapper arrested,
Am

suckers showin' me on video

Of course I know, that I'm a role model

braids waves or no hair

Without esteem for yourself nigga,
Am

And you can swagger like

you rule this; Josey Wales
Dm

Give up the savage ways,

be effective soldiers

To elevate the mental is to be

poor no more

There's war in the streets,

Our rhyme as live as it gets,
Am

They're always makin' trouble yo,

Killin' us in cold blood,
Am

those beats those vipers

And as I sit feelin' the pain in my wrist
Dm
Am

I vow to myself that I'ma change this shit

Or at least I gotta try,
Dm

or part of me will die
Am

And only by action will any ideas solidify

So I inhale, exhale as I ponder
Dm
Am

This grown man will make mis

takes no longer

I've been there,

I've seen how they make us fall victim
Dm

to their tricknowledgy, with no
Am

apology I diss em

And so I rip facts to dope

tracks I caress
Dm
Am

You're gonna hear about it, from JFK 2 LAX

  • 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.
