[Ab] I'm [Gb] hoping that I can borrow a piece of mind I'm behind [Ab] on what's really important
My [Ebm] mind is really [Abm] distorted I find nothing but trouble [A] in my life
I'm fortunate [Eb] you believe in a dream [Abm] This orphanage we call a [Eb] ghetto is quite a
[Gb] routine And last night was just [Ab] another distraction
Or a [Ebm] reaction of what we consider [Ab] madness I [Abm] know exactly what [A] happened
You ran outside when you heard [Eb] my brother cry for help
[Ab] Held him like a newborn [Db] baby and made him [Gb] feel Like everything was alright in [Bb] a fight
He tried to put up with [Ebm] the type of bullet that stuck
[Ab] Had went against his will, [A] that's blood still on your [Eb] hands
My plan's rather [Abm] vindictive, everybody's a victim
In my [Gb] eyes, when I ride it's a murderous [Bb] rhythm
And outside became [Ebm] pitch black A demon glooped [Ab] to my back
Whispering, get [A] him, I got him, and I ain't give [Eb] a fuck
That same mentality I [Abm] told my brother not [B] to duck
In [Gb]
actuality it's a trip, how we trip [Bb] off of colors
I wonder [Ebm] if I ever discover a [E] passion like you and recover
The [A] life that I knew as a young'un [Eb] in pajamas and thunder [Abm] lungs
When thunder comes [Ab] it rains cats and [Gb] dogs dumb
Niggas like me [Bb] never prosper, [Ebm]
prognosis of a problem [Ab] child
I'm [Abm] proud and well [A] devoted, this Piru [Eb] shit been near me forever
[Abm] So forever I'ma push [B] it, wherever, [Gb] whenever And I love you cause you love [Bb] my brother like
you did [Ebm] Just promise me you tell this [Ab] story when you
make it big
[A] And if I die before your [Eb] album drop I hope
[Abm] [B] [Gb]
Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me [Gb] Promise that you will [Ab] sing [Abm] about me
I [A] said when the lights shut [Eb] off And it's my [Abm] time to settle down
I made a good sign [Gb]
Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
[Gb] Promise that you will [Ab] sing [Abm] about me
[A] You wrote a [Ebm] song about my sister on your [Abm] tape
We called it section 80 The [Ebm] message resembled [Gb] Brenda's got a baby
What's crazy [Bb] was I was hearing [Ebm] about it But doubted your ignorance
How could [Ab] you ever just put her on [A] blast and shit?
Judging her [Eb] passing shit Well it's [Abm] completely my future
Her nigga [B] behind me right now asking [Gb] for ass and shit
And I'ma need [Bb] that 40 dollars even if [Ebm] I gotta fuck, suck and [Ab] swallow
At the parking lot, Gonzalez [A] Park I'm followed by a [Eb] merry man and father
Three, [Abm] my titties bounce on the [Gb] cadence of his tingling peace
Matter fact he my [Bb] favorite cause he hit me with ease
[Ebm] He got a cousin named [Ab] David and I seen him last week
[A] This is the life of [Eb] another girl damaged by the [Abm] system
These foster homes I [Gb] run away and never do miss em
See my hormones just [Bb] run away and if I can get [Ebm] em back to where they used to be
[Ab] Then I'd [Abm] probably be in the [A] denim of a family jean that [Eb] showed women how to be [Abm] woman
A better yet a [Gb] leader, you needed to learn something then you probably need to be [Ab] the
That's how I was taught, [Ebm] three niggas in one [Ab] room
First time I was tossed [A] and I'm exhausted
[Eb] But fuck that sorry for your [Abm] lost shit
My sister died in vain [Gb] but what point are you trying to gain?
If you can't fit the pumps I [Bb] walk in
I'll [Ebm] wait
[Ab] You're a butt a little too late [A] and if you have a album date [Eb] just make sure I'm not in the song
[Abm] Cause I don't need the attention [B] bringing up with that [Gb] on my own
And matter fact did I mention [Bb] that I physically feel [Gb] great?
A doctor's approval is [Ab] a waste of time I know I'm [A] straight
I probably live longer [Eb] than you and never fade away
[Abm] I'll never fade away, I'll [Gb] never fade away
I know my fate and I'm on the ground for this [Bb] cake
I'm a get it or die [Ebm] trying
I'm eyeing every male [Ab] gender with intentions of [A] buying
You lying to these [Eb] motherfuckers talking about you getting a [Abm] woman with my story
[B] [Gb]
[Ab]
[Ebm] [Ab] [Abm]
[A] When the lights shut [Eb] off and it's my [Db] turn to settle down
My [B] main concern, [Gb]
promise that you will [Bb] sing about me
[Gb] Promise that you will [Ab] sing [Abm] about me
[A] Say when the lights shut [Eb] off and it's my [Abm] turn to settle down
My main concern, [Gb]
promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
[Gb] Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
[A] Sometimes I [Ebm] look in the mirror and ask myself [Abm] am I really scared of passing away
If it's today [Gb] I hope I hear a cry out from heaven [Bb] so loud it can water down [Ebm] a demon
With the holy ghost [Ab] till it drown [Abm] in the blood of [A] Jesus
I wrote some [Ab] raps to make [Eb] sure that my [Abm] lifeline reeked of the scent of a [Db] reaper
Ensuring that [Gb] my allegiance with the other side may [Ab] come soon
And [Ebm] if I'm doomed may the wound of my [Abm] mother be blessed for many [A] moons
I suffer a lot [Eb] and everyday that glass mirror gets [Abm] tougher to watch
I [B] tie my [Gb] stomach in knots and I'm not sure why [Bb] I'm infatuated with death
[Gb] My imagination is [E] surely an aggravation of threats [A] that can come about
[Eb] Cause the tongue is mighty powerful and [Abm] I can name a list [Gb] of your favorites that probably vouch
Maybe cause I'm a [Ab] dreamer and sleep is the cousin of [Ebm] death
Really stuck in the scheme [Ab] of wondering when I'm [A] arrest
And you're right your brother [Eb] was a brother to me
[Abm] And your sister's situation [Gb] was the one that put me
In a direction to speak on [Bb] something that's realer than the TV [Ebm] screen
By any means [Ab] wasn't trying to offend or come [A] between
Her personal [Eb] life I was like it need to be [Abm] told
Cursing the life of [Gb] 20 generations after her soul
Exactly what'll [Ab] happen if I ain't continue [Ebm] rapping or steady being distracted [Ab] by money, drugs, and [A] four-fives
I count [Eb] lives all on these [Abm] songs
Look at the weak and [Ab] cry, pray one day you [Gb] be strong
Fighting for your [Ebm] rights even when you're [Gb] wrong
And hope that at least one of [Ab] you think about me when I'm [A] gone
Am I worth it?
[Ebm] Did I [Abm] put enough work in?
[B] [Gb]
Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
[Gb] Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
I said when the light's shut [Eb] off
And it's my time to [Abm] settle down
I'm [B] ain't concerned
[Gb]
Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
Promise [Gb] that you will [Ab] sing about me
[A] [Ebm]

He tried to put up with [Ebm] the type of bullet that stuck
[Ab] Had went against his will, [A] that's blood still on your [Eb] hands
My plan's rather [Abm] vindictive, everybody's a victim
In my [Gb] eyes, when I ride it's a murderous [Bb] rhythm
And outside became [Ebm] pitch black A demon glooped [Ab] to my back
Whispering, get [A] him, I got him, and I ain't give [Eb] a fuck
That same mentality I [Abm] told my brother not [B] to duck
In [Gb]
actuality it's a trip, how we trip [Bb] off of colors
I wonder [Ebm] if I ever discover a [E] passion like you and recover
The [A] life that I knew as a young'un [Eb] in pajamas and thunder [Abm] lungs
When thunder comes [Ab] it rains cats and [Gb] dogs dumb
Niggas like me [Bb] never prosper, [Ebm]
prognosis of a problem [Ab] child
I'm [Abm] proud and well [A] devoted, this Piru [Eb] shit been near me forever
[Abm] So forever I'ma push [B] it, wherever, [Gb] whenever And I love you cause you love [Bb] my brother like
you did [Ebm] Just promise me you tell this [Ab] story when you
make it big
[A] And if I die before your [Eb] album drop I hope _
[Abm] _ _ _ [B] _ _ [Gb]
Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me [Gb] Promise that you will [Ab] sing [Abm] about me
I [A] said when the lights shut [Eb] off And it's my [Abm] time to settle down
I made a good sign [Gb]
Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
[Gb] Promise that you will [Ab] sing [Abm] about me
[A] You wrote a [Ebm] song about my sister on your [Abm] tape
We called it section 80 The [Ebm] message resembled [Gb] Brenda's got a baby
What's crazy [Bb] was I was hearing [Ebm] about it But doubted your ignorance
How could [Ab] you ever just put her on [A] blast and shit?
Judging her [Eb] passing shit Well it's [Abm] completely my future
Her nigga [B] behind me right now asking [Gb] for ass and shit
And I'ma need [Bb] that 40 dollars even if [Ebm] I gotta fuck, suck and [Ab] swallow
At the parking lot, Gonzalez [A] Park I'm followed by a [Eb] merry man and father
Three, [Abm] my titties bounce on the [Gb] cadence of his tingling peace
Matter fact he my [Bb] favorite cause he hit me with ease
[Ebm] He got a cousin named [Ab] David and I seen him last week
[A] This is the life of [Eb] another girl damaged by the [Abm] system
These foster homes I [Gb] run away and never do miss em
See my hormones just [Bb] run away and if I can get [Ebm] em back to where they used to be
[Ab] Then I'd [Abm] probably be in the [A] denim of a family jean that [Eb] showed women how to be [Abm] woman
A better yet a [Gb] leader, you needed to learn something then you probably need to be [Ab] the
That's how I was taught, [Ebm] three niggas in one [Ab] room
First time I was tossed [A] and I'm exhausted
[Eb] But fuck that sorry for your [Abm] lost shit
My sister died in vain [Gb] but what point are you trying to gain?
If you can't fit the pumps I [Bb] walk in
I'll [Ebm] wait
_ [Ab] You're a butt a little too late [A] and if you have a album date [Eb] just make sure I'm not in the song
[Abm] Cause I don't need the attention [B] bringing up with that [Gb] on my own
And matter fact did I mention [Bb] that I physically feel [Gb] great?
A doctor's approval is [Ab] a waste of time I know I'm [A] straight
I probably live longer [Eb] than you and never fade away
[Abm] I'll never fade away, I'll [Gb] never fade away
I know my fate and I'm on the ground for this [Bb] cake
I'm a get it or die [Ebm] trying
I'm eyeing every male [Ab] gender with intentions of [A] buying
You lying to these [Eb] motherfuckers talking about you getting a [Abm] woman with my story
_ [B] _ _ [Gb] _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
[Ebm] _ _ _ [Ab] _ [Abm] _
[A] When the lights shut [Eb] off and it's my [Db] turn to settle down
My [B] main concern, [Gb]
promise that you will [Bb] sing about me
[Gb] Promise that you will [Ab] sing [Abm] about me
[A] Say when the lights shut [Eb] off and it's my [Abm] turn to settle down
My main concern, [Gb]
promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
[Gb] Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
[A] Sometimes I [Ebm] look in the mirror and ask myself [Abm] am I really scared of passing away
If it's today [Gb] I hope I hear a cry out from heaven [Bb] so loud it can water down [Ebm] a demon
With the holy ghost [Ab] till it drown [Abm] in the blood of [A] Jesus
I wrote some [Ab] raps to make [Eb] sure that my [Abm] lifeline reeked of the scent of a [Db] reaper
Ensuring that [Gb] my allegiance with the other side may [Ab] come soon
And [Ebm] if I'm doomed may the wound of my [Abm] mother be blessed for many [A] moons
I suffer a lot [Eb] and everyday that glass mirror gets [Abm] tougher to watch
I [B] tie my [Gb] stomach in knots and I'm not sure why [Bb] I'm infatuated with death
[Gb] My imagination is [E] surely an aggravation of threats [A] that can come about
[Eb] Cause the tongue is mighty powerful and [Abm] I can name a list [Gb] of your favorites that probably vouch
Maybe cause I'm a [Ab] dreamer and sleep is the cousin of [Ebm] death
Really stuck in the scheme [Ab] of wondering when I'm [A] arrest
And you're right your brother [Eb] was a brother to me
[Abm] And your sister's situation [Gb] was the one that put me
In a direction to speak on [Bb] something that's realer than the TV [Ebm] screen
By any means [Ab] wasn't trying to offend or come [A] between
Her personal [Eb] life I was like it need to be [Abm] told
Cursing the life of [Gb] 20 generations after her soul
Exactly what'll [Ab] happen if I ain't continue [Ebm] rapping or steady being distracted [Ab] by money, drugs, and [A] four-fives
I count [Eb] lives all on these [Abm] songs
Look at the weak and [Ab] cry, pray one day you [Gb] be strong
Fighting for your [Ebm] rights even when you're [Gb] wrong
And hope that at least one of [Ab] you think about me when I'm [A] gone
Am I worth it?
_ [Ebm] _ Did I [Abm] put enough work in?
_ [B] _ _ [Gb]
Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
[Gb] Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
I said when the light's shut [Eb] off
And it's my time to [Abm] settle down
I'm [B] ain't concerned
[Gb]
Promise that you will [Ab] sing about me
Promise [Gb] that you will [Ab] sing about me _
[A] _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _
[Abm] _ _ _ _ _ [Gb] _
