Verse 1
Amaj7
Eb7sus4
I woke up this morning and figured
C#m7
I'd call you In case I'm not here tomorrow
Emaj7
Ebm
Bmaj9
I'm hoping that I can borrow a piece of mind
C#9
I'm behind on what's really important
G#m9
My mind is real ly distorted
G#7b9
Amaj7
I find nothing but trouble in my life
Eb7sus4
I'm fortunate you believe in a dream
C#m7
This orphanage we call a ghetto
Ebm
is quite a routine
Bmaj9
C#9
And last night was just another distraction
G#m9
Or a reaction of what we consider madness
G#7b9
I know exactly what happened
Amaj7
You ran outside when you heard
Eb7sus4
my brother cry for help
C#m7
Held him like a newborn baby
Emaj7
Ebm
and made him feel
Bmaj9
Like everything was alright
C#9
And a fight he tried to put up, but the type
G#m9
G#7b9
Of bullet that stuck had went against his will
Amaj7
As blood spillled on your hands
Eb7sus4
my plan's rather vindictive
C#m7
Emaj7
Everybody's a victim in my eyes
Ebm
Bmaj9
When I ride it's a murderous rhythm
C#9
G#m9
And outside became pitch black
G#7b9
A demon glued to my back whispering,
"Get 'em"
Amaj7
Eb7sus4
I got 'em, and I ain't give a fuck
That same mentality
C#m7
Emaj7
that told my brother not to duck
Ebm
In actuality
Bmaj9
C#9
It's a trip how we trip off of colors
G#m9
I wonder if I'll ever discover
G#7b9
A passion like you and recover
Amaj7
The life that I knew as a young'n
Eb7sus4
In pajamas and Dun-ta-duns
C#m7
When thunder comes
Emaj7
Ebm
it rains cats and dogs
Bmaj9
C#9
Dumb niggas like me never prosper
G#m9
Prognosis of a problem child
G#7b9
I'm proud and well devoted
Amaj7
Eb7sus4
This Piru shit been in me forever
C#m7
So forever I'ma push it,
Emaj7
Ebm
wherever whenever
Bmaj9
And I love you
C#9
'cause you love my brother like you did
G#m9
Just promise me you'll tell this story
G#7b9
when you make it big
Chorus 2
Amaj7
And if I die before your album drop
Eb7sus4
I hope-— [bang- bang- bang!]
C#m7
Emaj7
Ebm
Bmaj9
C#9
Promise that you will sing about me
G#m9
G#7b9
Promise that you will sing about me
Amaj7
I said when the lights shut off

My main concern
Ebm
Bmaj9
C#9
Promise that you will sing about me
G#m9
G#7b9
Promise that you will sing about me
Verse 2
Amaj7
You wrote a song
Eb7sus4
about my sister on your tape
C#m7
And called it Section.80,
Emaj7
the message resembled
Ebm
"Brenda's Got a Baby"
Bmaj9
C#9
What's crazy was, I was hearin' about it
G#m9
But doubted your ignorance,
how could you ever
G#7b9
Just put her on blast and shit?
Amaj7
Eb7sus4
Judging her past and shit?
C#m7
Well it's completely my future
Emaj7
A nigga behind me right now
Ebm
asking for ass and shit
Bmaj9
C#9
And I'ma need that forty dollars
even if I gotta
G#m9
G#7b9
Fuck, suck and swallow in the parking lot
Amaj7
Gonzales Park, I'm followed
Eb7sus4
by a married man, a father of three
C#m7
My titties bounce on the cadence
Emaj7
Ebm
of his tingling keys
Bmaj9
Matter of fact he my favorite
C#9
'cause he tip me with E's
G#m9
He got a cousin named David
G#7b9
and I seen him last week
Amaj7
This is the life of another girl
Eb7sus4
damaged by the system
C#m7
These foster homes,
Emaj7
Ebm
I run away and never do miss 'em
Bmaj9
See, my hormones just run away
C#9
and if I can get em back
G#m9
To where they used to be
G#7b9
then I'll prob'ly be in the denim
Amaj7
Eb7sus4
Of a family gene that show women
how to be woman,
C#m7
or better yet a leader
Emaj7
Ebm
You need her to learn something,
Bmaj9
then you probably need to beat her
C#9
That's how I was taught
G#m9
Three niggas in one room,
G#7b9
first time I was tossed
Amaj7
And I'm exhausted
Eb7sus4
But fuck that "Sorry for your loss" shit
C#m7
My sister died in vain,
Emaj7
Ebm
but what point are you tryna gain
Bmaj9
If you can't fit the pumps I walk in?
C#9
G#m9
I'll wait
G#7b9
Your rebuttal a little too late
Amaj7
And if you have a album date,
Eb7sus4
just make sure I'm not in the song
C#m7
'Cause I don't need the attention
Emaj7
Ebm
bring enough of that on my own
Bmaj9
And matter fact did I mention
C#9
that I physically feel great?
G#m9
G#7b9
A doctor's approval is a waste of time,
I know I'm straight
Amaj7
I'll probably live longer than you
Eb7sus4
and never fade away
C#m7
Emaj7
I'll never fade away, I'll never fade away
Ebm
I know my fate, and I'm
Bmaj9
on the grind for this cake
C#9
I'ma get it or die trying
G#m9
I'm eyeing every male gender
G#7b9
with intentions of buying
Amaj7
You lying to these motherfuckers,
Eb7sus4
C#m7
talkin' 'bout you can help me with my story
You can help me
Emaj7
Ebm
if you sell this pussy for me, nigga
Bmaj9
Don't ignore me, nigga,
C#9
fuck your glory, nigga, you ain't shit
G#m9
G#7b9
Chorus 3
Amaj7
When the lights shut off
Eb7sus4
C#m7
And it's my turn to settle down
Emaj7
My main concern
Ebm
Bmaj9
C#9
Promise that you will sing about me
G#m9
G#7b9
Promise that you will sing about me
Amaj7
I said when the lights shut off

Verse 3
Amaj7
Eb7sus4
Sometimes I look in a mirror and ask myself
C#m7
Am I really scared of passing away
Emaj7
Ebm
Bmaj9
If it's today I hope I hear a
Cry out from Heaven so loud
C#9
it can water down a demon
G#m9
With the Holy Ghost 'til it drown
G#7b9
in the blood of Jesus
Amaj7
Eb7sus4
I wrote some raps that make sure
that my lifeline
C#m7
Reekin' the scent of a reaper,
Emaj7
Ebm
ensuring that my allegiance
Bmaj9
C#9
With the other side may come soon
G#m9
And if I'm doomed, may the wound
G#7b9
Help my mother be blessed for many moons
Amaj7
I suf fer a lot
Eb7sus4
And every day that glass mirror
C#m7
get tougher to watch
Emaj7
Ebm
I tie my stomach in knots
Bmaj9
C#9
And I'm not sure why I'm infatuated with death
G#m9
My imagination is surely
G#7b9
an aggravation of threats
Amaj7
That can come about
Eb7sus4
'Cause the tongue is mighty powerful
C#m7
And I can name a list
Emaj7
Ebm
of your favorites that probably vouch
Bmaj9
Maybe 'cause I'm a dreamer
C#9
and sleep is the cousin of death
G#m9
Really stuck in the scheme of,
G#7b9
wondering when I'ma rest
Amaj7
And you're right, your brother
Eb7sus4
was a brother to me
C#m7
And your sister's situation
Emaj7
Ebm
was the one that put me
Bmaj9
In a direction to speak on something
C#9
that's realer than the TV screen
G#m9
G#7b9
By any means, wasn't trying to offend
or come between
Amaj7
Eb7sus4
Her personal life, I was like
"It need to be told"
C#m7
Cursing the life
Emaj7
Ebm
of twenty generations after her soul
Bmaj9
Exactly what'da happened
C#9
if I ain't continue rappin'
G#m9
Or steady being distracted
G#7b9
by money, drugs and four
Amaj7
Fives, I count lives
Eb7sus4
all on these songs
C#m7
Look at the weak and cry,
Emaj7
Ebm
pray one day you'll be strong
Bmaj9
Fighting for your rights,
C#9
even when you're wrong
G#m9
And hope that at least one of you
G#7b9
sing about me when I'm gone
Chorus 4
Amaj7
Eb7sus4
Am I worth it?
C#m7
Did I put enough work in?
Emaj7
Ebm
Bmaj9
C#9
Promise that you will sing about me
G#m9
G#7b9
Promise that you will sing about me
Amaj7
I said when the lights shut off
Eb7sus4
C#m7
And it's my turn to settle down
Emaj7
My main concern
Ebm
Bmaj9
C#9
Promise that you will sing about me
G#m9
G#7b9
Promise that you will sing about me

Outro 1
Fuck! I'm tired of this shit!
I'm tired of fuckin' runnin'
I'm tired of this shit!
My brother, homie!
Is that what I think that is?
I know that's not what I think that is
Why are you so angry?
See, you young men are dying of thirst
Do you know what that means?
That means you need water, holy water
You need to be baptized,
with the spirit of the Lord
Do you want to receive God
as your personal savior?
Okay, repeat after me: "Lord God,
I come to You a sinner."
(Lord God, I come to You a sinner)
"And I humbly repent for my sins"
(And I humbly repent for my sins)
"I believe that Jesus is Lord"
(I believe that Jesus is Lord)
"I believe you raised Him from the dead"
(I believe you raised Him from the dead)
"I would ask that Jesus come into my life"
(I would ask that Jesus come in my life)
"And be my Lord and Savior"
(And be my Lord and Savior)
"I receive Jesus to take control of my life"
(I receive Jesus to take control of my life)
"And that I might live for Him
from this day forward"
(And that I may live for Him
from this day forward)
"Thank You, Lord Jesus
For saving me with your precious blood"
(Thank you, Lord Jesus
For saving me with Your precious blood)
"In Jesus' name, amen"
(In Jesus' name, amen)
All right, now remember this day
The start of a new life, your real life

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.”
