    Was 
    broke

    what 
    you 
    screaming, 
    you 
    my 
    brother 
    for 

    Heart 
    is where 
    the hatred 
    is, 

    the brain 
    that 
    stained 
    the love 
    below 

    And life 
    is what 
    you 
    make 
    it 
    so 

    I'm 
    makin' 
    money 
    for

    I 
    gotta 
    be the 
    one 

    To

    To 
    do 
    it 
    like 
    nobody

    ever 
    done 

    Verse 7
    When most 
    people 
    look 
    at a 
    person 

    who 
    does 
    what I 
    do 

    They look 
    at 
    us with 
    these 

    preconceived 
    no
    tions 
    as 
    if 

    It's 
    a 
    set 
    way 
    for 
    us all 
    to be, 

    but we 
    all 
    people 
    at 
    the 
    end 

    Of 
    the 
    day so 
    I 
    wonder 
    why 
    we don't 

    treat each 
    other 
    like 
    it 

    You're 
    looking 
    at 
    a 
    person 
    telling 

    them 
    that they 
    story 
    don't 

    Mat
    ter when 
    they're no 
    better 
    than 
    me, 

    walkin' 
    down 
    the streets 
    tryna 
    shoot 
    at 
    somebody 

    'Cause 
    all 
    we got 
    is 
    these 
    dreams 
    man 
    and 
    y'all 

    ain't never 
    had 
    to 
    not 
    have noth
    ing 

    And that's 
    the last 
    thing you 

    want 
    from anybody 

    Is to 
    not really 
    have 
    nothing 

    Verse 8
    I 
    been 
    through 
    Hell 
    and 
    back, 

    I seen 
    my 
    momma 
    cry 

    Seen 
    my 
    father 
    hit 
    the crack 

    then 
    hit 
    the set 
    to flip 
    a sack 

    I 
    done seen 
    my 
    homies 
    die 
    then 

    went 
    on 
    rides 
    to kill 
    'em back 

    So 
    how 
    you say 
    you feel 
    me 
    when 

    you never 
    had 
    to 
    get 
    through 
    that? 

    We 
    live 
    for 
    they 
    amusement 
    like 
    they 
    view 

    us 
    from 
    be
    hind 
    the 
    glass 

    No matter 
    what 
    we 
    grow 
    into, 

    we 
    never 
    gonna 
    escape 
    our 
    past 

    So 
    in this 
    cage 
    they 
    made 
    for 
    me, 

    exactly 
    where 
    you find 
    me 
    at 

    Whether 
    it's 
    my time 
    to 
    leave 
    or not, 

    I 
    never 
    turn 
    my 
    back 

    Verse 9
    I 
    got
    ta be, 
    I gotta 
    be, 
    I 
    gotta 
    be 
    the 
    one 

    To 
    make 
    it up 
    to 
    Heaven,

      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.

      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 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
