[Cm] I grew up a fucking screw-up tie [Ab] my shoe up wish they was newer damn need [Cm] something newer
in love with the baddest girl in the city I wish I knew [Ab] her I wish I won't so shy wish
I was a bit more fly [Cm] I wish that I could tell her how I really feel [Ab] inside that I'm the
perfect nigga for her but then maybe that's [Cm] a lie she like a certain type of nigga and
it's clear I'm not that guy [Ab] ballplayer star player I'm just watching from [Cm] the side on
the bench cuz my lack of confidence won't let me [Ab] fly I ain't grow up with my father
I ain't thinking about that now [C] fast forward four years or so from now I'll probably cry
[Ab] when I realize what I missed but as of now my eyes are dry [Cm] cuz I'm trying to stay alive
in the city where too many [Ab] niggas die dreaming quiet trying [C] to dodge a suit and tie who am I?
[Ab] hey who am I?

my mind and truth [Ab] fuck yours I got food for your thoughts to soothe [Cm] your soul if you see my tears
fall just let [Ab] me be move along nothing to see I always did shit the hard way [Eb] my niggas are
slinging in a [Ab] hard way burnt CDs of trees like this was Broadway [Cm] Times Square kept the dimes
there in the locker [Ab] some Reggie Miller with more brown hairs than [Cm] Chewbacca whispers that he got
it for the Lolo seller [Ab] down for a dub them white boys ain't no no better [Cm] besides what's $20 to a
nigga like that [Ab] he tell his pops he needs some lunch and he gonna get it right I peep gang [Eb] got
home snatch my mama keychain took a whip the appeal to ill to [C] refrain I hit the [Cm] boulevard
