Alright chords
Start Jamming...
[Ebm] [Dm] All's my life I has to fight, nigga All's my life I, hard [Ebm] times like yeah, [Dm] bad
trips like yeah Nazareth, I'm fucked up homie you fucked up
but if God got us then we gon' [Eb] be alright Nigga [Gm] we gon' be [Dm] alright
Nigga we gon' be alright Nigga we gon' be alright
Do you hear me, do you [Am] feel me, we gon' [Gb] be alright
Nigga [G] we gon' be [Dm] alright Huh, we gon' be alright
Nigga we gon' be alright Do you hear me, do you feel me, we gon' be alright
Uh, and when I wake up I recognize you looking at me for the pay cut
Bahamas savvy looking at you from the face down
One Mac 11 even rule with the bass [Gb] down Skimming, now let me tell you about [D] my [Dm] life
Painkillers don't even put me in the twilight But pretty [Gm] pussy and Benjamin is the highlight
Now tell my mama I love her but this what I like
[Ab] Lord knows, 20 [Ebm] of them in [A] my Chevy Tell em all to come [Dm] and get me reaping everything
I sow So my karma come in heaven, no preliminary
hearings on my record I'm a motherfucking gangsta in silence for
[Db] the record Tell the world [G] I know it's too [Dm] late
Boys and girls [G] I think I've gone crazy Blind inside my vices all day
Won't you please believe [Ebm] when I say
Wouldn't you know, [Dm] we been hurt, been down before
Nigga, when our pride was low Looking at the world like where do we go
[Ebm] Nigga, and we hate po-po [Dm] One that kill us dead in the street for sure
Nigga, I'm at the preacher's door My knees getting weak and my gun might blow
[Ab] But we gon' be [Ebm] [Gm]
[Dm]
[Db] [G]
[Dm] [Gm] alright
[Abm] What you want?
You [Gm] a house, you a car, [Dm] 40 acres and a mule, a piano, a guitar, anything
See my name is Lucy, I'm your dog Motherfucker, you can live [Db] at the mall
I can see the evil, I [G] can tell it, I know it's illegal
I don't think [Dm] about it, I deposit every other zero
Thinking of my partner, put the candy painting on a [G] Rico
Digging in [Gm] my pocket, in a profit, [Bb] big enough to beat you
Every day my logic, get [Gm] another dollar Just to keep [Dm] you in the presence of your Chico
Ah!
I don't talk about it, be about it, every day I see cool
If I got it, then you know you got it, [Db] heaven I can reach you
Pet dog, pet [Gm] dog, pet dog, my dog, [Dm] that's all
In the back and chat, I trap the back for [Ebm] y'all
I rap, I black on tracks, arrest the show My rights, my wrongs, I'll write till I'm right with God
When you know, [Dm] we been hurt, been down before
Nigga, when our pride was low Looking at the world like where do we go
[Ebm] Nigga, and we hate po-po [Dm] One that kill us dead in the street for sure
Nigga, I'm at the preacher's door My knees getting weak and my gun might blow
But we [Ebm] gon' be alright
[Gm]
[Dm] [A]
[Dm] [Db] [G]
[Dm] I
[A] [Ab] [Bb] keep [Am] my [Dm] head up [C] high Got to [Dm] cross my pride
[Gm]
[F] [Db] [G]
[Dm]
I remember you was conflicted, misusing your influence.
Sometimes I did the same, abusing my power full of resentment.
Resentment that turned into a deep depression.
Found myself screaming in the hotel room.
I didn't want to self-destruct.
The evils of Lucy was all around me, so
