[G] I [C] will bring strength,
[Am] I will find [Dm] them,
[G] I will break them down,
[C] the mixing [Am] of his majesty of stick,
[Dm] we're no one, no devils, [G] philosophy,
can you hear,
[C] the mixing [Em] of majesty of [Dm] stick,
we're no one, no devils, [G] philosophy
If you feel it [C] in the one drop
[Am] You're lucky, [Dm] for we still got time [G] to wrap
And we're making [C] the one stop
Let [Am] me tell ya
[Dm] This generation [G] can't both [C] steal this from me
[Am]
