Chords for DK West Encounter 3 (From "No Straight Roads")

_ [Gm] _ Hey, hey, [A] hey.
[Gm] _ Hey, Mayday.
[G] How you doing today?
_ _ [Gm] _ [Ab] If you want the real deal, [Gm] don't pick someone who's guilty.
You want to pick the winner instead.
Trust me, I'm the original, exceptional, [A] Amy Oli, not like Zoops.
He's just copying my [Gm] moves. _
If you like [G] those moves, pick the OG grooves.
[A] DK West [Gm] is your man.
Others, they just [D] stand.
Hey West, you know Zoot still looks up to you.
You're his brother, not from another mother, and you're not a bother.
You're a [Gm] real deal.
You've got such a big following, [Cm] and this power [Gm] is building.
It's a threat to the political system of Final City.
This is important.
Your role is true.
Rise up to [Bb] the occasion and be a real [Cm] inspiration.
[G] Yes, I've done great things, [Eb] but I'm not really [Gm] convinced that Zoot really respects what I do.
Zoot's probably out [G] to get me.
Zoot [Gm] can't stand watching me succeed.
He wants all the spotlight on him.
Aw, where's Zoot? _ _
[G] That's silly, West.
You know Zoot's following your footsteps.
Every move, every groove, you've been inspiring Zoot.
Our rebellion?
[Gm] Zoot's been emulating your success.
We're trying to bring back rock to the city and fight the EDM empire.
Zoot's been doing great things.
[Cm] I can see it myself, but you [D] cannot do a history [Gm] of his mean vibes to me.
[D] I've been disappointed, down and out, my own brother out to get me.
[A] Zoot's been forever [Gm] not liking me.
So how can I forgive?
How can I move on?
He's probably never changed, anyhow, anyway. _ _
West, you gotta know, Zoot was only doing his [A] thing.
He wasn't [Gm] doing anything like scheming.
So [D] don't think badly or let your mind go madly in the wrong direction with too much introspection.
[G] Instead, reframe your mind, open up your [Gm] thoughts, lighten up your heart.
You gotta know your [Db] brother looks up to you.
[Gm] He only wants the best, he'll learn from the best, [Eb] the real deal, the role model, the one and only rhyme master, the often [Bb] imitated, never replicated, [D] DK West!
Aw, naw, naw, naw.
[G] Just wait, are you making this up?
You're just [Eb] creating stories to [Gm] tell of my real glory?
You're making me wonder, are you telling the truth?
Well, [G] I wanna talk with you.
I wanna ask you a thing.
I'm not really convinced whether that's [Gm] really how your heart seeks.
Are you playing me, little brother?
Are you taunting me, or judging me?
I have a feeling you've got these hidden [D] ulterior motives.
Got my mind buzzin'.
I gotta [Dm] admit, Bright got a hold on [D] me when I outdid you, West.
College was when I was the best.
But you gotta know, any human would feel the same.
And like Mayday said, I still [A] look up to you, bro.
[G] You built your career from scratch and made it higher and higher until [Gm] NSR had to step in and kill that blazing fire.
They knew you were dangerous, high risk, high energy, highly influential.
DK West, simply the best.
From the bottom to the top of the game.
I created the [G] ruckus.
A whole crazy ride that really built up my pride.
I never wanted to influence the politics of the city.
[D] I just wanted to make music, rhymes, grooves.
Yeah, hit it!
And so I left it all behind.
Final city, bye bye.
Adios, lama, thank God.
But yeah, Zoop, I see you.
You've progressed from the blur, from the coolest of the coolest,
to a leader, to a man, to the leader of the rebellion.
And let me say one more thing, brother, [D] that makes me proud [A] inside.
[Gm] DK West, your brother.
West, [G] what you did for the city, even if unintentional, hit all the main points.
We really hit national.
[Eb] What's awesome, [Gm] fully truesome, and despite the powers that be, [Eb] NSR's [Gm] monopoly, the crazy grip on the city, was [Eb] shaken to the core.
The great [Cm] DK West managed to shake it.
The political [Gm] system, we need to break it.
This is what I'm trying to [G] do now.
_ _ [A] _ [Dm] _ _ [Ab]
Zoop, [Gm] congrats, you the man.
You can start the city just like I did before.
There's no reason it can't be done more.
If something's to be done, it can be done, done, done, done, done.
But you know, Zoop, [D] you got me right in my face.
You put me in my place.
You said I wasn't a brother, and it truly bothered me.
[G] Ewa, you got it, bro.
[Gm] Ewa, really, Zoop bro?
I was dumb, I was stupid, I was foolish, I [A] was blinded.
[G] I'm sorry for [A] saying something so [Gm] dumb, stupid, foolish.
I didn't mean to be mean.
I mean, you know what I mean.
Despite all our bickering, our fighting, our disagree, DK West, you will always be [G] Ewa.
My brother, [Gm] my family, my man.
DK West, you will always be my brother, my family, my man, Ewa.
