Start Jamming...
Oh, I knew I was going to see you again.
I knew I was going to see you again.
Where you got that book bag at?
I was carrying that little book bag.
Nobody want to see that.
God damn fourth grader.
Put your ass down.
Showing up late again like he got something else to do.
You don't got nothing else to do.
You ain't doing nothing with your life.
Nothing with your life.
[F] Who you think this is?
[Eb] You better look at me, I'm talking to you.
[Ebm] You think this shit easy, don't you?
[Bb] You think this is promise.
Who ain't [F] nothing promise to you?
Look at my face.
Do I got a [Bb] promise face?
You think I promise you anything?
Kanye, did you snooze [F] in my class?
Wake up, Mr.
West.
[D] Wake up, Mr.
West.
Mr.
[Eb] West.
Mr.
West.
Mr.
West.
[E] Yeah.
Uh.
Yeah.
[Gb] Yeah.
Uh.
[Cm] Yeah.
And I heard him say, [Bb] nothing's ever [G] promised tomorrow today.
[Cm] From the shy, like Tim [D] is a hard to wait.
[G] So this is in the name of love, like [D] robbers say.
[Dm] Before you ask me [Gm] to go get [A] a job today, can I at least [F] get a raise on a minimum wage?
And I know the government administer AIDS, [C] so I guess we just pray like the menace to say.
[Dm]
[Gm] I'm rock bar, throwing some hot cars.
[D] Things we seen on the screen, it's not [Bb] ours.
But these niggas on [G] the hood, so these dreams not [Dm] far.
Where I'm from, [G] the dope boys is the rock stars.
But they can't cop [F] cars without seeing cop cars.
I guess they want to talk behind bars.
I know it.
And I heard him say, [Bb] [G] nothing's ever promised [A] tomorrow today.
[G] And [D] I heard him say, [G] nothing's ever promised tomorrow today.
[A] But we'll find a way.
[F] Nothing [C] lasts forever, but [F] be honest, babe.
It hurts, but it may be the only [D] way.
They say people in your life are [Dm] seasons, and anything [G] that happens is for a [D] reason.
And niggas gun clapping and keep the squeezing.
[Dm] And grandkids [Bb] praying and keep [Dm] believing in Jesus.
[Gm] And one day that [A] should see them, till they're walking in footsteps [F] and try to be him.
The devil is alive, I feel him breathing.
[D] Claiming money is the key, so keep on [Bb] dreaming.
And put [G] them lottery tickets just to tease us.
[D] My Aunt Pam can't put them cigarettes down.
[Dm] So now my little cousin smoking them cigarettes now.
His job's trying to [G] claim that he too [A] niggerish now.
Is it because his skin [F] blacker than licorice now?
I can't figure it out, sticking in that.
[Bb] [F] And I heard him say, [Dm] [G] nothing's ever promised tomorrow today.
[F]
And I heard him say, [G] nothing's ever promised tomorrow today.
But we'll find a way.
Nothing lasts forever, but be [F] honest, babe.
It hurts, but it may be the only way.
[Dm] With [G] every wordless word, we get more far away.
[Bb]
[G] Nothing's ever promised [Bb] [D] tomorrow today.
[G] Nothing lasts forever, but [F] be honest, babe.
It hurts, but it may be the only [Ab] way. [D] Yeah.
