Key: F minor
Verse 1
and to survive, well,
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
Ayo, I'm slippin',
I'm fallin', I gots to get up
Get me back on my feet
Em
C
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
I can't get up
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
Ayo, I'm slippin',
I'm fallin', I gots to get up
Get me back on my feet
And now I know that happy
If I'm strong enough,
I'll live long enough to see my kids
with the time than bids
Em
C
I know because I've been there,
now I'm in there
Sit back and look at what
First came the ball,
the drama with my mama
Strapped with mad greed,
I'm ready for the world,
or at least I thought I was
I was thinking about how short I was
Em
C
Going too fast, it wouldn't last,
but yo, I couldn't tell
Group homes and institutions,
They put me in this situation,
forcing me to be a man
without a helping hand
Em
C
Damn! Was it my fault?
Something I did
To make a father leave his first kid
Back on the scene at fourteen
with a scheme
ever seen in a dream
And I never gave a f***
That's the only f*** I'd
head off in my last
Just another little f***
Em
C
Ayo I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
I can't get up
Ayo I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
Ayo I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
I gots to get up
Em
C
Ayo I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
I can't get up
Ayo I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
Ayo I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
I gots to get up
Chip on my shoulder that
I didn't even touch
Didn't need a click,
Em
C
Went deep, with the b****,
startin' for kicks
Catchin' vicks, throwin' bricks,
Used to get high, just to get by,
used to have to ball
somethin'
After some b****,
somethin'
Three years later,
showin' signs of stress
forget about b**** how I dress
Em
C
I'm possessed by the darker side,
livin' the cruddy life
Wanna make records but I'm hooked up
Em
C
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
I can't get up
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
Ayo, I'm slippin',
I'm fallin', I gots to get up
Em
C
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
I can't get up
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
Ayo, I'm slippin',
I'm fallin', I gots to get up
Em
C
Wasn't long before I hit rock bottom
Like, damn,
Like a window, no more endo
that could've been you
Em
C
It's on the TV, believe me,
it could be done
Something gots to give,
gots to change this
I gots to do the right thing for shorty
drinkin' 40's
Em
C
So I get back, lookin' tight, slick again
Fake f***in' jump back on
Nothin' but love for those
that know how it feel
Em
Who they is, and this is your fuckin' song
And to my boo, who stuck with it, I do
because it's due
Em
C
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
I can't get up
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
Ayo, I'm slippin',
I'm fallin', I gots to get up
Em
C
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
I can't get up
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
Ayo, I'm slippin', I'm fallin',
I gots to get up
Em
C
so I can tear shit
C
Em
but I gots to get up
C
Em
I can't get up, but I gots to get up
