I still found truth, even though you lied
Bm

They tried and tried,
From my people,
C
Em
killin' your own in the streets
Oh, you don't thank God?
Em
A
And every time I rap,

Am
Em
And every time I sing,
Em
A
And every time I dream,

Am
Em
And everything I think about,

up the re volution
It's a constitution
I don't like,
I'm all in for my people,
Go dirty south for my people,

Now a revolution, if done right
Em
A
And it most certainly won't
be televised

Cause just like we listen, shit he listen
And it's poised and propagated
But no problem is solved
between a killing and a murder
to reflect your claim

Em
So talking is like a tantrum,
and your gunfire's random
brandishing my handgun
destroy something,
or rebuild something
or the whole protest is passive

Every time I write, it be for my people
Em
A
And every time I rap, it be for my people
Am
C

And every time I sing,
it be for my people
it be for my people
Am
Em
And everything I think about,
be for my people
Am
Em
I do it for the good,
Em
A
I do it for the hood,
Do it for my people,
like Ali Pad and Jose
Am
Em
Like Camden Road and Oak City,
I do it for my people
These streets raised me,
With key fob on the plumb floor
Chair keys my nigga tore
Am
C
I do it for the people
My life's doggone
Frontline with the people
How did you like the song?
