Key: G# minor•
Intro 1
G#m
Verse 1
They say the last eight years were
like hell with recession and war
I never got involved with elections before
I never saw a point in expressing my thoughts
I never thought I'd see change
and today it remains
That I'm one of those
Americans that feels my pain
It's mine, so I don't think that
I could ever place blame
And only
God judges me when I'm walkin'
So while I'm here, I give a fuck who we put
in office
But then when I hear folks talkin', I think
about the reason I'm here,
like my callin' I think about the way we delayed to help
New
Orleans I ponder about the
towers that fell and who
really caused it I always imagined
it was two evils runnin'
And we picked the lesser,
so I never even stress it
Especially when in
Florida, they rigged the whole election
I feel like a free man,
but I'm still in the colored section singin'
E
G#m
This is my life, so I gotta take control
I'ma make it on my own
if you feel me say
E
G#m
This is my life, this is deeper than a flow
You don't stick it to the globe,
people understand
E
G#m
This is my life, so you know I ain't afraid
I'm about to make a change,
G#m
This is my life, so I can't go to sleep
From the porch to the streets
Man, and some of y 'all tune this
out like I'm speaking
French
Cause maybe it's too
much to absorb, like
CNN
Cause I changed the channel myself and we
pretend that ain't nothing wrong with the world
I see the end coming sooner than we
think and I ain't saying vote or die
But I am saying I'm like
you with one open eye
And I'm trying to change the country
I say try cause I'm sitting in my home
In a home I don't own without
no health insurance
Yeah, some days I'm drained but I don't
cast a ballot so I cannot complain
And sometimes I think our
forefathers were slain
For a right they were born with
Fuck all that whole shit, people love drama,
everybody and they mama is hype
About
Obama,
Obama sounds like
Osama to them, are they related?
And after he wins, will a
John
Wilkes
Booth or
Lee
Harvey appear again?
If you feel me, then sing,
E
G#m
this is my life and I won't be afraid
If you hear me, then sing,
E
G#m
this is my life and I refuse to play the game
If you feel me, then scream
E
G#m
My life, my life, my life
And you can't take away
shit is not about red or blue,
black or white, yellow or green
You're blocked, you're set, you're cruel,
you're country or your team
Sayin' nigga, sayin' cracker,
sayin' spic
Doesn't matter, bein' stupid,
bein' smart
Bein'
Baptist, bein'
Catholic
Doesn't make a fuckin' difference
With the shit that's bout to happen
If I say it, I'm afraid in a year
I might get clapped,
but y 'all keep sleepin'
They blottin' on human beings
That's we
PlayStation 3 -ing and
Nintendo
Wii -ing
They startin' fake wars and we dyin',
we bleedin' in
They wanna make a one world government,
we don't see it
Cell phone, satellites,
cameras in our resident
They don't give a fuck if they
give us a black president
That's in the plan too,
start civil war so it's easier to plant that chip
And then we lost, cause we lose all rights
Fight now or die,
August 9th tonight,
G#m
This is my life, so I gotta take control
I'ma make it on my own
G#m
This is my life, this is deeper than a flow
Y 'all stick it to the globe,
people understand
G#m
E
G#m
I'm about to make a change,
G#m
This is my life, so I can't go to sleep
I'm the voice in the streets, huh
This is my life and
I'ma make a change
If you feel me then sing,
this is my life and I won't be afraid
If you hear me then say,
this is my life and I refuse to play the game
If you feel me then scream,
my life, my life, my life
And you can't take that away
