    Am

    They say the goodness in life
    E
    Am

    Belongs to those who believe

    So, I believe (ow)
    Verse 2

    Yes, ha
    Am

    I start to think and then I sink

    Into the paper like I was ink

    When I'm writing,

    I'm trapped in between the lines

    I escape when I finish the rhyme, ay, yo

    I start to think and then I sink
    E
    Am

    Into the paper like I was ink

    When I'm writing,

    I'm trapped in between the lines

    I escape when I finish
    Verse 3
    Am

    My pop said he was in love

    when he made me

    Thought about it for a second
    E

    wasn't hard to see
    Am

    I could hear he was sincere,

    wasn't game or promotion

    The entire affair's probably

    charged with emotion

    When love call your heart I guess

    you gotta pursue

    12-11-73, my life is testament

    Praise the beneficent

    Element that breath (that's right)

    Devoid in the form that make

    love manifest

    I spent my early years

    in Roosevelt Projects

    It was a bright valley

    with some dark prospects

    In '83, Vendy C was the host

    with the most

    I listened to the Rap Attack

    and held the radio close

    I listened to the Rap Attack

    and held the radio close

    This is far before the days of high
    E

    glamour and pose
    Am

    Ay, yo, power from the streetlight

    made the place dark

    I know a few understand

    what I'm talking about

    It was love for the thing

    that made me wanna stay out

    It was love for the thing that made

    me stay in the house

    Spending time, writing rhymes

    Trying to find words that

    describe the vibe

    That's inside the space
    B
    Am

    When you close your eyes

    and screw your face

    Is this the pain of too much tenderness

    To make me nod my head

    in reverence?

    Should I visit this place in

    remembrance?

    Or build landmarks here

    as evidence?

    Nighttime, spirit shook my

    temperament

    To write rhymes that portray

    this sentiment

    We live the now for the promise
    E
    Am

    of the infinite

    We live the now for the

    promise of the infinite
    E

    And we believe in the promise
    Verse 4
    Am

    Love, love, love, love

    Love, love, love, love

    Love, love, love, love

    Yes, yes,, y'all (love)
    E

    And we don't stop
    Am
    Because
    Verse 5

    I start to think and then I sink
    E
    Am

    Into the paper like I was ink

    When I'm writing,

    I'm trapped in between the lines
    E

    I escape when I finish the rhyme
    Am
    I got
    Verse 6

    L-O-V-E and and and and I be

    Love, L-O-V-E to emcee

    y'all (say what? Uh-huh)

    Feel me out, y'all (yeah), hear me out,

    Feel me out, y'all (hear me bounce,

    y'all) (get down)

    Check me out, y'all, feel it out, y'all
    Verse 8
    Am

    My folks said they was in love

    when they made me

    I take the love they made me with

    to make rhymes and beats

    (Can you feel?) The raw deal

    is all-wheel driven (right)

    Contemplate the essence of beats,

    rhymes and livin'

    Speech align with the rhythm

    (right), designed with the rhythm

    Ears and eyes keep in good

    time with the rhythm

    I shine with the rhythm,

    the Black Star Galactica

    You're big number fatin', we ancient

    like the abacus

    After us, I see most proceed

    to be trees

    Sprouting leaves,
    E
    Am

    givin' breeze to the we who believe

    I M.C., which means I Must

    Cultivate the Earth

    Straight back, straight facts,
    E
    Am

    heartbeats and hard work

    I be the "Funky Drummer" to soften

    the hard Earth
    E

    (Amin) pray Allah keep my soul
    Am

    and heart clean

    (Amin) pray the same thing again

    for all my team

    From Restoration to Fort Greene,

    and on out to Queens

    Uptown To Boogie-down, yo,

    yo, just look around

    Shook up the world like Ali in

    6-3 (right)

    I'm reaching a height that

    you said cannot be

    I'm bringing a light which you said

    we can't see

    Saw the new day comin',

    it look just like me

    Sun bursts through the clouds, my photo ID

    I bring light to your day and raise

    your degree

    The universal magnetic,

    you must respect it

    From end to beginning,

    bright, true and living

    Ever changing was a state

    of magnificent

    Building the now for the promise

    of the infinite
    Am

    Building the now for the promise

    of the infinite
    Verse 9
    Am

    Because I start to think and then I sink
    Am

    Into the paper like I was ink

    When I'm writing,

    I'm trapped in between the lines
    Am

    I escape when I finish the rhyme
    Verse 10
    Am

    I got love, L-O-V-E and and and and I be

    Love, L-O-V-E to emcee

    • 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.
