    Verse 1
    Coming 
    out 
    the 
    streets 
    of 
    the 
    fifth 
    ward, 

    Torrigate 
    of 

    Sadness 

    Never 
    to 
    face 
    the 
    way 
    I 
    let 
    my 
    luck 

    cause 
    yo 
    I 
    still 
    had 
    the 
    manners 

    With 
    thoughts 
    of 
    moving 
    away 
    from 
    the 
    slums 

    I 
    thought 
    me 
    a 
    part 
    -time 
    job 

    But 
    see 
    I 
    work 
    behind 
    the 
    clock, 

    but 
    who's 
    to 
    blame? 

    I 
    ask 
    myself 
    time 
    and 
    time 
    again 

    Nevertheless 
    I 
    was 
    thrown, 
    get 
    a 
    bone 

    And 
    the 
    world 
    will 
    sin 
    as 
    I 
    struggle 

    And 
    sacrifice 
    my 
    life 
    just 
    to 
    see 
    the streets 

    Like 
    every 
    black 
    kid 
    I 
    dreamed 
    of 
    being 

    An 
    ath
    lete, 
    chickity 
    check 
    it 
    out 

    Sitting 
    on 
    the 
    dock 
    of 
    the 
    bay, 
    wasting 
    time 

    As 
    I 
    find 
    a 
    wheel 
    just 
    to 
    make 
    a 
    way 

    Now 
    it's 
    on, 
    I 
    suffered 
    many 
    years 

    Just 
    to 
    get 
    by 

    And 
    make 
    steps 
    for 
    my 
    son 
    little 

    Eli 

    Yeah, 
    cause 
    I 
    was 
    fresh 

    with 
    them 
    rhyme 
    schemes 

    Met 
    up with 

    Lil 

    Dewey 
    and 
    he 
    put 
    me 
    through 

    my 
    damn 
    dream 

    I've 
    been 
    a 
    star 
    and 

    rappin' 
    in 
    them 
    concerts 

    A 
    dope 
    nigga, 

    I'm 
    makin' 
    a 
    bitch's 
    heart 
    hurt 

    And 
    life 
    is 
    over, 
    barely 
    yet 
    I 
    still 
    respect 
    it 

    Yeah, 
    and 
    I 
    thank 

    God 
    for 
    the 
    blessing 

    In 
    this 
    song 

    Mm 
    -hmm, 
    so 
    thanks 

    for 
    the 
    blessing

    gave 
    to 
    me

    used 
    to 
    struggle 

    Mama 
    had 
    to 
    scuffle, 
    so 
    I 
    know 
    I 
    had 
    to

    my 
    stroll 
    on 
    to 

    keep 
    her 
    pant 
    roll 
    on 

    Tried 
    to

    hello 

    We 
    didn't 
    look 
    too 
    good, 

    all

    like 

    Sometimes 
    we 
    didn't 
    have 
    enough 

    to 
    pay 
    the 
    fuckin' 
    lights 

    Momma 
    had 
    some friends,

    sing 

    Spook 
    and

    the 
    kids 
    who 
    used 
    to 
    cop

    lot 

    If

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      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 🙂

      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.

      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.
