Or burn you, lessons are blessings

Dm 
Let's face facts,
Em 
although MC's lace tracks
F 
It doesn't mean behind the scenes
Em 
there ain't no dirt to trace back

Verse 5
Dm 
Sometimes you gotta dig deep,
Em 
when problems come near
F 
Don't fear, things get severe
Em 
for everybody everywhere
Dm 
Why do bad things happen
Em 
to good people?
F 
Seems that life is just a constant war
Em 
between good and evil
Dm 
The situation that I'm facin'
Em 
is mad amazin'
F 
To think such problems can arise
Em 
from minor confrontations
Dm 
Now I'm contemplatin',

in my bedroom pacin'
F 
Dark clouds over my head,
my heart's racin'

F 
My only crime,
Em 
was that I'm too dam n kind
Dm 
And now some scandalous motherfuckers
Em 
wanna take what's mine
F 
But they can't take the respect that
Em 
I've earned in my lifetime
Dm 
And you know they'll never stop
Em 
the furious force of my rhymes
F 
Em 
So like they say, every dog has its day

And like they say,
