[G#] [C#] Yo, what's up?
[G#] No, my brother, not today.
I'm on my way [F#] somewhere.
Let me tell you [Fm] a little story, man.
[C] What happened to me.
I got that [F#] in the video, yo.
Let me show.
[G#] See, I was looking [Fm] for God [C#] at my grandmama's house
[G#] underneath the cushions on the [C#] couch.
[F#] I looked all around, side to [Fm] side, up and down that [C#] man.
Nowhere to be found.
[G#] So I called [C#] my grandmama on the phone.
Said, old [G#] lady, you best get home.
Cause [Fm] God ain't where he [F#] said he would [C#] be.
And there's something that [Fm] I really need to speak
with him [F#] about immediately.
[C#] She [G#] said, boy, [Fm] tell granny [F#] what's wrong.
[C#] Is there something [G#] I can do?
I said, big mama, [Fm] now, it's a [F#] sensitive [A#m] issue.
And Lord knows [Fm] I don't wanna [C] worry you.
But [F#] I need somebody to [D#] talk to.
It's been [G#] 26 [A#m] years, 17 [C#] days.
[G#] Been to five different prisons, [C#] got two babies on the way.
[F#] And they say [A#m] it'll be a waste of time to [Fm] pray.
She said, I'm [A#m] going to hell anyway.
[D#m] It's been [Fm] 26 [C#] years, 17 days.
[G#] Been to five different prisons, got two babies on the way.
[F#] They say [C#] it'll be a waste of time [Fm] to pray.
She said, I'm [F#] going to hell anyway.
[G#] She had to smoke weed [A#m] with the best of y'all.
She had it [C#] all arrested, [G#] y'all.
My heart hurt like an old man with [C#] high cholesterol.
[F#] Pray to [C#] Satan, I'm the dirtiest dude [Fm] he ever saw.
Shouldn't even [F#] be living.
[C#] And he a Christian.
[G#] Should've [Fm] been dead [C#] like 17 times from [G#] 17 crimes I committed.
[Fm] Took him all to [F#] trial and got [A#m] him pleaded.
Left waving [Fm] my middle finger in the air.
[F#] Whispered in the [C#] prosecutor's ear.
I just [G#] know everything [D#] from [C#] dreams to wedding rings.
[G#] Auctioned off my soul [C#] for material things.
But [F#] lately it's been kind of bothering [C#] me.
I guess that turtle [F#] always catches up
[C#] with the rabbit [G#] eventually.
It's been 26 years, [A#m] 17 [C#] days.
[G#] Been to five different prisons, [C#] got two babies on the way.

Somebody, [C#] somebody, [G#] somebody cares.
[G#m] That's my jam, that's my jam right there.
Patty is amazing.
But what's even more amazing is that four years later,
still in prison, I was still on the road
to becoming a better person, a better father,
a better son, a better individual, all around individual.
But I saw a lot of fake things going on in the church.
People, you know, faking like, you know,
everybody else is bad and they ain't nobody holier than thou
