I used to dream every (A major) night,
Verse 1
now I never dream at all
I'm hop (A minor) in' that it's 'cause
I'm livin' everythin' I want
I used (A major) to wake up in a bed between
my mom and aunt
Playin' with this Land Before
(A minor) Time toy from Pizza Hut
My dad work (A major) s nights,
puttin' on a stone face (A minor)
He's savin' up so we
can get our own place
(A major) In the projects,
man that sounds fancy to me
They called (A minor) me "fat nose," my mom say,
"You handsome to me"
Mrs. (A major) Glover ma'am,
your son is so advanced
But he's actin' up in class and
(A minor) keeps peein' in his pants
And I just wanna fit (A major) in,
but nobody was helpin' me out
They talkin' hood shit an (A minor) d I ain't know
what that was about
'Cause hood (A major) shit and black
shit is super different
So I'm talkin' hood shit and cool
(A minor) it now like New Edition
Mom and (A major) dad wouldn't listen
They left the Bronx so I wouldn't
be that
(A minor) All their friends in NY deal crack
It's weird,
you think that they'd be proud of (G major) 'em
But when you leave the hood
They think that you look down on 'em
(A minor) The truth is we still struggle
on a different plane
(G major) Seven dollars an hour, WIC vouchers,
it's all the same
Facebook (F major) messagin' hopin' that
could (G major) patch up shit
But all they get now is, "Can
New- Play with audio & scroll

Verse 2
your son read this script?"
(A major) There's a world we can
visit if we (G major) go outside
(F major) Outside, outside,
(A minor) (A major) we can (G major) follow the road (F major)
There's a (A major) world we can
visit if we (G major) go outside
(F major) Outside, outside,
(D minor) no one (C major) knows (E major)
There's a (A major) world,
there's a world if we (G major) go outside
(F major) Outside, outside,
(A major) we can (G major) follow (F major) the road
There's a (A major) world,
there's a world if we (G major) go outside
(F major) Outside, outside, (D minor) no one (C major) knows (E major)
Yeah (A minor)
Verse 3
(E major)
Dad (A major) lost his job,
mama worked at Mrs. Winner's
Gun (A minor) pulled in her face,
she still made dinner
"Donald (A major) watch the meter so they
don't turn the lights off"
Workin' two job (A minor) s so I can get
into that white (A major) school
And I hate it there
They all make fun of my clothes
and wanna touch (A minor) my hair
And my uncle on that stuff
(A major) that got my grandma shook
Drug dealers roughed him up and stole
his address book
He's supposed to pay (A minor) 'em back
(A major) He owe 'em money but
his bank account is zero
So my momma made us sleep
(A minor) with Phillips heads under the pillow
(A major) Like that would do somethin'
But she's got six kids,
(A minor) she's gotta do somethin'
She don't want (A major) me in a lifestyle
like my cousin
And he mad 'cause
his father ain't around
(A minor) He lookin' at me now, like
(A major) "Why you so fuckin' lucky?
I had a father too
But he ain't around so I'ma take
(A minor) it out on you"
We used to say,
"I love you," now we only think that (E major) shit
It (G major) feels weird that you're the person
I took sink baths (A minor) with
Street took you over, I want my cousin back
(G major) The world sayin' what you are
Because you're young and black,
don't believe 'em
You're still that kid who kept
the older boys
From teasin', for some reason
Verse 4
There's a (A minor) world we can
(A major) visit if we (G major) go outside
(F major) Outside, outside,
(A minor) (A major) we can (G major) follow the road (F major)
There's a (A major) world we can
visit if we (G major) go outside
(F major) Outside, outside, (D minor) no one (A minor) knows (E major)
There's a (A major) world,
there's a world if we (G major) go out (F major) side
Outside, outside,
(A major) we can (G major) follow the road (F major)
There's a (A major) world,
there's a world if we (G major) go outside
(F major) Outside, outside,
no (D minor) (C major)
(E major) one knows
(A major) (G major)
Verse 5
(F major)
Can you hear me now? (A major) (G major) (F major)
Can you hear me now? (A major)
(G major) Oh, (F major) help us, Lord (D minor)
(G major) Oh, I'm (C major) screamin' baby, (E major) (G major) (F major)
