[Ab] _ _ [F] _ _ [G] _ _ [C] _
[Ab] As I walk through the valley [Fm] of the shadow of death, I [G] take a look at my life [Cm] and realize
[G] there's nothing [Ab] left.
Cause I've been blasting [Bb] and laughing [Ab] so long [G] that even my mama thinks [Eb] that my mind [G] is gone.
[Ab] But I ain't never crossed a man [F] that didn't deserve it.
[G] Me be treated like a punk, [C] you know that's unheard [Ab] of.
You better watch how [F] you're talking and where you're [Em] walking.
Or you and your homies [C] might be lying and talking.
[Ab] I really hate to trip, [F] but I gotta look.
[Bm] As they come, I see myself [C] in the pistol smoke.
[Ab] Fool, I'm the kind of cheetah [Fm] little homies wanna be [G] like.
On my knees in the night, saying prayers in the [Ab] streetlight.
[Db] We've been standing most [G] of our lives living in the [Cm] basest paradise.
[Ab] We've been [Fm] standing most of our [G] lives living in the bestest paradise.
[Ab] We've [G] been standing most [Fm] of our lives [G] living in the [Cm] bestest paradise.
[Ab] We've been [Fm] standing most of our [G] lives living in the bestest [C] paradise.
[Ab] Look at the [F] situation they got me facing.
I can't live a normal life.
I was raised by the street.
So I gotta be there with the hood team.
Too much television watching got me chasing [Ab] dreams.
I'm an educated [Fm] fool with money on my mind.
[G] Got my 10 in my hand and a gleam in my eye.
[Ab] I'm a no doubt [F] bitch, set, tripping, banging.
[G] And my homies is down, [C] so don't arouse my anger.
[Ab] Fool, death ain't [Fm] nothing but a heartbeat away.
[G] I'm living life to a [C] dia.
What can I [Ab] say?
I'm 23 [F] now, but will I live to see [G] 24?
The way things is [C] going, I don't know.
[Ab] Tell me why [F] I'm being [G] so blind [C] to see.
Got [Fm] no one, _ [G] but you [C] and [Ab] me.
We've been [Fm] standing most of our [G] lives living in the bestest paradise,
[Ab] We've been [Bb] standing most of our [G] lives living in the [Cm] bestest [Ab] paradise,
We keep [Fm] standing most of our [G] lives living in the bestest paradise,
[Ab] Keep standing most of our [G] lives living in the [Gm] bestest paradise.
[Ab] Power and the [Fm] money, money and the [G] power Minute after minute, hour after [Ab] hour
Everybody's [F] running, but I'm a [G]-looking What's going on in the [C] kitchen?
But I don't know what's [Ab] cooking They say I got to [Fm] learn, but nobody's here to [Bm] teach me
If they can't [C] understand it, how can they [Ab] teach me?
I guess they [F] can't, I guess they won't, [G] I guess they front
That's why I know my life is out of [Fm] luck, fool
I've been standing most my [G] life Living in a [Cm] desperate [Gm] _

[Ab] I am being [Fm] piled up, [G] so blind [Cm] to see [Ab] That the [Fm] wrongs we've heard
