    Verse 1
    Ladies 
    and 
    gentlemen, 

    I want 
    to 
    invite 
    you 
    on a 
    journey 

    sincerely 
    hope 
    you are in 

    a mood 
    to 
    travel 
    right 
    now 

    'Cause 
    we're 
    going 
    back 
    in 
    time 

    Are 
    you ready? 


    Verse 2
    wanna 
    take 
    you 
    way 
    back 

    To 
    when 
    girl 
    on 
    a mike?s 
    worth 

    Wasn't 
    determined 
    by 

    the 
    length 
    of 
    her 
    skirt 

    I mean 
    way 
    back 
    to 
    creativity 
    before

    before 
    BET 

    mean 
    Verse 3
    way 
    back 
    before 
    recycling shit 

    When 
    the 
    props 
    that 
    you 
    got 
    was 

    for 
    your 
    writing 
    and 
    shit 

    Let's 
    rewind 
    before 
    the 
    hype 

    when you 
    used 
    to 
    be 
    low 
    key 

    To 
    be 
    singer 
    you 
    had 
    to 
    actually 
    know 
    key 

    Verse 4
    mean 
    way 
    back 
    to before 

    people 
    made 
    job 

    Of seeing 
    who's 
    best 
    at 
    impersonating 
    Bob 

    mean 
    way 
    back 
    to 
    when you 

    sweat 
    blood 
    on every 
    line 

    To 
    get 
    one 
    good 
    song 
    didn't 

    cost 
    sixteen 
    ninety 
    nine 

    Verse 5
    To be 
    considered 
    deep 
    you had 

    to 
    actually 
    say 
    stuff 

    And if 
    it 
    wasn't 
    good, 

    disc 
    jockeys 
    didn't 
    play 
    stuff 

    I mean 
    way 
    way, 

    Marvin 
    Gaye 
    way 
    back 
    and 
    pray 
    that 
    you 
    will

    Come 
    with 
    me,

    melody 

    Give 
    us 
    room 
    to 
    exer
    cise 
    our 
    minds 

    Take 
    me 
    to 
    another 
    place, 
    another 
    time,

    hooks,

    rhymes

    Come 
    with me, 

    let 
    us

    this 
    fallacy 

    Give 
    us 
    room 
    to exer
    cise 
    our 
    minds 

    Take 
    you

    Verse 8
    Well, 
    it?s 
    ironic 
    that 
    the 

    chron
    ic that 
    smoke 

    Got 
    me 
    singing 
    shit 
    that's 

    bionic every 
    note 

    That it?s 
    affecting 
    my 
    judgment 
    is 

    what 
    some

    Somebody 
    please 
    take 
    me 
    back 
    to 
    when 

    the 
    artistes 
    were 
    poor 

    'Cause when 
    they

    us 
    so 
    much 
    more

    attitude 
    wasn't 
    defined 

    By 
    somebody 
    being 
    rude 

    To 
    when 
    it 
    was 
    pleasure 

    definitely 
    not 
    a task 

    To

    fan

    Maybach 

    You 
    dreamt 
    about 
    mil 

    but 
    never 
    made 
    that 

    When 
    you 
    made 
    some 
    shit 
    that 

    we 
    could

    back

    to pass 
    in 
    the glorious 

    days 
    of charts 

    That the 
    music 
    hailed 

    and we 
    danced 
    to it

    And 
    though 
    they 
    were 
    defin
    itely 

    wrong 
    think 
    it's 
    worse 

    To be

    album 

    Just

    • 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

      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.
