Verse 1
F
Bm
I woke up this morning and figured
Am
I'd call you In case I'm not here tomorrow
C
Bm
G
I'm hoping that I can borrow a piece of mind
A
I'm behind on what's really important
Em
My mind is really distorted
E
F
I find nothing but trouble in my life
Bm
I'm fortunate you believe in a dream
Am
This orphanage we call a ghetto
Bm
is quite a routine
G
A
And last night was just another distraction
Em
Or a reaction of what we consider madness
E
I know exactly what happened
F
You ran outside when you heard
Bm
my brother cry for help
Am
Held him like a newborn baby
C
Bm
and made him feel
G
Like everything was alright
A
And a fight he tried to put up, but the type
Em
E
Of bullet that stuck had went against his will
F
As blood spillled on your hands
Bm
my plan's rather vindictive
Am
C
Everybody's a victim in my eyes
Bm
G
When I ride it's a murderous rhythm
A
Em
And outside became pitch black
E
A demon glued to my back whispering,
"Get 'em"
F
Bm
I got 'em, and I ain't give a fuck
That same mentality
Am
C
that told my brother not to duck
Bm
In actuality
G
A
It's a trip how we trip off of colors
Em
I wonder if I'll ever discover
E
A passion like you and recover
F
The life that I knew as a young'n
Bm
In pajamas and Dun-ta-duns
Am
When thunder comes
C
Bm
it rains cats and dogs
G
A
Dumb niggas like me never prosper
Em
Prognosis of a problem child
E
I'm proud and well devoted
F
Bm
This Piru shit been in me forever
Am
So forever I'ma push it,
C
Bm
wherever whenever
G
And I love you
A
'cause you love my brother like you did
Em
Just promise me you'll tell this story
E
when you make it big
Chorus 2
F
And if I die before your album drop
Bm
I hope-— [bang- bang- bang!]
Am
C
Bm
G
A
Promise that you will sing about me

Verse 2
F
You wrote a song
Bm
about my sister on your tape
Am
And called it Section.80,
C
the message resembled
Bm
"Brenda's Got a Baby"
G
A
What's crazy was, I was hearin' about it
Em
But doubted your ignorance,
how could you ever
E
Just put her on blast and shit?
F
Bm
Judging her past and shit?
Am
Well it's completely my future
C
A nigga behind me right now
Bm
asking for ass and shit
G
A
And I'ma need that forty dollars
even if I gotta
Em
E
Fuck, suck and swallow in the parking lot
F
Gonzales Park, I'm followed
Bm
by a married man, a father of three
Am
My titties bounce on the cadence
C
Bm
of his tingling keys
G
Matter of fact he my favorite
A
'cause he tip me with E's
Em
He got a cousin named David
E
and I seen him last week
F
This is the life of another girl
Bm
damaged by the system
Am
These foster homes,
C
Bm
I run away and never do miss 'em
G
See, my hormones just run away
A
and if I can get em back
Em
To where they used to be
E
then I'll prob'ly be in the denim
F
Bm
Of a family gene that show women
how to be woman,
Am
or better yet a leader
C
Bm
You need her to learn something,
G
then you probably need to beat her
A
That's how I was taught
Em
Three niggas in one room,
E
first time I was tossed
F
And I'm exhausted
Bm
But fuck that "Sorry for your loss" shit
Am
My sister died in vain,
C
Bm
but what point are you tryna gain
G
If you can't fit the pumps I walk in?
A
Em
I'll wait
E
Your rebuttal a little too late
F
And if you have a album date,
Bm
just make sure I'm not in the song
Am
'Cause I don't need the attention
C
Bm
bring enough of that on my own
G
And matter fact did I mention
A
that I physically feel great?
Em
E
A doctor's approval is a waste of time,
I know I'm straight
F
I'll probably live longer than you
Bm
and never fade away
Am
C
I'll never fade away, I'll never fade away
Bm
I know my fate, and I'm
G
on the grind for this cake
A
I'ma get it or die trying
Em
I'm eyeing every male gender
E
with intentions of buying
F
You lying to these motherfuckers,
Bm
Am
talkin' 'bout you can help me with my story
You can help me
C
Bm
if you sell this pussy for me, nigga
G
Don't ignore me, nigga,
A
fuck your glory, nigga, you ain't shit
Em
E

Verse 3
F
Bm
Sometimes I look in a mirror and ask myself
Am
Am I really scared of passing away
C
Bm
G
If it's today I hope I hear a
Cry out from Heaven so loud
A
it can water down a demon
Em
With the Holy Ghost 'til it drown
E
in the blood of Jesus
F
Bm
I wrote some raps that make sure
that my lifeline
Am
Reekin' the scent of a reaper,
C
Bm
ensuring that my allegiance
G
A
With the other side may come soon
Em
And if I'm doomed, may the wound
E
Help my mother be blessed for many moons
F
I suffer a lot
Bm
And every day that glass mirror
Am
get tougher to watch
C
Bm
I tie my stomach in knots
G
A
And I'm not sure why I'm infatuated with death
Em
My imagination is surely
E
an aggravation of threats
F
That can come about
Bm
'Cause the tongue is mighty powerful
Am
And I can name a list
C
Bm
of your favorites that probably vouch
G
Maybe 'cause I'm a dreamer
A
and sleep is the cousin of death
Em
Really stuck in the scheme of,
E
wondering when I'ma rest
F
And you're right, your brother
Bm
was a brother to me
Am
And your sister's situation
C
Bm
was the one that put me
G
In a direction to speak on something
A
that's realer than the TV screen
Em
E
By any means, wasn't trying to offend
or come between
F
Bm
Her personal life, I was like
"It need to be told"
Am
Cursing the life
C
Bm
of twenty generations after her soul
G
Exactly what'da happened
A
if I ain't continue rappin'
Em
Or steady being distracted
E
by money, drugs and four
F
Fives, I count lives
Bm
all on these songs
Am
Look at the weak and cry,
C
Bm
pray one day you'll be strong
G
Fighting for your rights,
A
even when you're wrong
Em
And hope that at least one of you
E
sing about me when I'm gone
Chorus 4
F
Bm
Am I worth it?
Am
Did I put enough work in?
C
Bm
G
A
Promise that you will sing about me
Em
E
Promise that you will sing about me
F
I said when the lights shut off
Bm
Am
And it's my turn to settle down
C
My main concern
Bm
G
A
Promise that you will sing about me
Em
E
Promise that you will sing about me

Outro 1
Fuck! I'm tired of this shit!
I'm tired of fuckin' runnin'
I'm tired of this shit!
My brother, homie!
Is that what I think that is?
I know that's not what I think that is
Why are you so angry?
See, you young men are dying of thirst
Do you know what that means?
That means you need water, holy water
You need to be baptized,
with the spirit of the Lord
Do you want to receive God
as your personal savior?
Okay, repeat after me: "Lord God,
I come to You a sinner."
(Lord God, I come to You a sinner)
"And I humbly repent for my sins"
(And I humbly repent for my sins)
"I believe that Jesus is Lord"
(I believe that Jesus is Lord)
"I believe you raised Him from the dead"
(I believe you raised Him from the dead)
"I would ask that Jesus come into my life"
(I would ask that Jesus come in my life)
"And be my Lord and Savior"
(And be my Lord and Savior)
"I receive Jesus to take control of my life"
(I receive Jesus to take control of my life)
"And that I might live for Him
from this day forward"
(And that I may live for Him
from this day forward)
"Thank You, Lord Jesus
For saving me with your precious blood"
(Thank you, Lord Jesus
For saving me with Your precious blood)
"In Jesus' name, amen"
(In Jesus' name, amen)
All right, now remember this day
The start of a new life, your real life
