Verse 1
(A minor)
I
(F major) (G major) (A minor)
(G major)
(F major) (A minor)
(G major)
(F major) (G major) (A minor)
What if life was simple (G major) as a hug?
What (A minor) if my partner wasn't
crippled from a drug? (F major)
What if my other homie
never (G major) caught a slug?
(A minor) What if our parents actually
gave a fuck?
Another black suit, another black suit
(G major) Police happy to see another black shoot
(F major) His mother's makeup
smearing on my (G major) arms
Crying (A minor) cause I'm the only son
that she (G major) got now that he's gone
(A minor) What if the ghetto never
heard an instrumental
(G major) And we didn't have this rap shit,
all we (A minor) had was metal
(F major) You telling me if we couldn't shoot a (G major) ball
Our (A minor) lives still got shooting involved
And what if I never left
out of Denver
that winter for new beginnings
My father (G major) started his business
and traded family for (F major) riches
You telling me that my auntie
would still have a house to (G major) live in
And Jo (A minor) jo wouldn't be
writing me from prison
But fuck it this is (F major) life,
deal (A minor) with it or get dealt with
I'm (G major) in my room smokin' alone
like I'm selfish
(F major) Some days the sun's hard to face
(A minor) Dad tongs, the sun wears his face
But look close to see the heart of a lion
Fixin' stones, killin' damage,
my bones harder than (F major) iron
170 pounds with the walk (G major) of a giant
(A minor) Throw the fire in a pot for value,
turn up the volume
Turn up the value
Turn up the value (F major)
Turn (A minor) up the value
For all that it's worth
To live in the spot (G major) light
All of my demons (F major) come to life
(A minor) And all that it was
And all that it could (G major) be
Is lost in the dark (F major) ness of the night (A minor)
Why (G major) should I die? (A minor)
To live in the spot (G major) light
Why should I kill (F major) myself for you? (A minor)
You let me die,
you (G major) let me die (F major) inside for you (A minor) (G major)
Look, (A minor) what if money
wasn't part of success?
What if the people
I used to be friends with never left?
What if mak (F major) ing a name
did (G major) n't come with regrets? (A minor)
I think that fame's a precursor (F major) to death
Death (A minor) of a friendship,
death of a family,
death of a man
The (G major) misunderstood are always
dead before (A minor) they under (F major) stand
Staring at ceiling fans,
chop a milligram, (A minor) draw a pentagram
Lucifer's not a rumor,
he's in the band
Liquor and vomit on my converse
Bright lights and packed (F major) concerts
And right next to the gun
that's on my (G major) dresser
Are (A minor) plastic orange bottles of peer pressure
And I'm ready to cave, I (F major) live in (A minor) the cage
How can I be a (G major) hero
when I'm the one needing saved?
48 hour days (F major) on this fast lane living
Me (A minor) and my entourage,
no Jeremy Pitt, but listen
It's better to burn out than fade away
is what Kurt said
I felt the same until I saw
his (G major) daughter
and thought (A minor) as a father
what if tomorrow (F major) the only way
I could spoil it was dying (A minor)
Started crying then popped the value,
turned up the value
Turned up the value
Turned up the value (F major)
Turned (A minor) up the value
Turned all that it's worth
To live in the spot (G major) light
All of my demons (F major) come to life (A minor)
All now that it was
And
And all that it could (G major) be
is lost in the dark (F major) ness of the night
(A minor) Why (G major) should I die? (A minor)
move against my (G major) will
Why should I kill (F major) myself for you? (A minor)
Don't let me die
To move against my (G major) will
You let me die (F major) inside for you (A minor) (G major) (A minor)
(F major) (A minor)
So what you do when the cop lights
turn into a stage and a spotlight
And (G major) everyone around (F major) you starts
to hate cause you got right
And feeling titled (A minor) like I'm
supposed to stop living my life
Well this ain't Tupac, this ain't M -Show
This ain't Jig (G major) ga, man,
this that Kel's flow
This that C (F major) -Town 19 double X rep show
Wel (A minor) come to my life,
here's a ticket (G major) to the next
show (A minor)
Spotlight (F major)
Wel (A minor) come to my life,
here's a ticket to the next show
