Chords for Nas - Nobody feat. Ms. Lauryn Hill (Official Audio)

_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] One city, one country, [Bb] one state. _
_ _ [Gb] Some place to be nobody. _ _
_ _ Some place to be.
_ Some place you [Bb] wouldn't know probably.
[Ebm] _ _ _ Yeah.
_ _ [Bbm] _ If Chappelle moved to Ghana to find his peace in a role where [Bb] the service always roaming,
I'm packing my bags and going.
It's a challenging act.
It's a [Eb] balancing act.
Visit beautiful places.
[Bbm] There's more out here than the trap.
Houses in Long Island, [Bb] they always found them.
House in the south, a nigga barely [Gb] got out.
Sunny LA.
Remember calls with Dr.
Dre.
He told me, don't let the palm trees fool you, nigga.
Be safe.
Me and my higher self, [F] we offering with speech.
Somehow [Bb] we lost the connection.
Might meet a Joshua [Bbm] Tree.
And it's been bothering me.
Too many wavy [Eb] women.
Gotta log out of IG.
Can't [B] be my ace DMing.
[Ab] No kidding.
It's hard to [Bb] move like a civilian.
Can't be my ace DMing.
I write [C] the truth because I live it.
Not like you musical [Gb] niggas.
We did it big and they biggest.
They'd rather [Db] shoot than write tickets.
What it feel like to go get it?
What it feel like to go miss?
In [Bbm] one city, one country, one state. _
[Bb] _ _ [Ebm] Some place to be nobody.
_ [Eb] _
_ _ [Gb] Some place to be.
_ Some place you wouldn't know [Eb] probably.
[Gb] Some place to be nobody. _ _
_ _ _ _ Dog [Bb] bought a plane.
Said, let's go to Paris.
That's where baguettes are from.
French [Gb] bread that's long and narrow.
I like the other definition.
Rectangular carrots.
The concept of the song is rather esoteric.
This girl said [F] in Grenada we should go get [Bb] married.
Broke the meaning down [Ebm] of the Virgin Mary.
And you got your own place.
[Eb] My favorite part of the night when you text me [Bbm] that you made it home safe.
I'm contemplating at the home base.
[Bb] How I'm used to breakfast in the ghetto, sipping [Bbm] OJ.
That's a picture right there, a moment in [Eb] time.
Before anybody wanted [Gb] a photo of mine.
Before the internet energy [Bb] and social decline destroyed the vibe.
Fooling us with the [Gb] headlines.
Keeping us blind.
Vultures eat you alive.
Take heed to the signs.
Wishing I'd find one city, one country, [G] one state. _
[Bb] _ _ [Ebm] Some place to be nobody. _ _
_ _ [Gb] Some place to be.
_ [Bb] Some place you wouldn't know probably.
Some place to be nobody. _ _
_ _ _ All my time has been focused on my freedom now.
Why would I join them when I know that [Bbm] I can beat them now?
They put their words on me and they can eat them now.
That's probably why they keep on telling me I'm needed now.
They tried to box [Bb] me out while taking what they want from me.
I spent many years living [Gb] too uncomfortably.
Making room for people who didn't like the labor.
But wanted the spoils, greedy, selfish behavior.
Now let me give it [F] to you balanced and with [Bb] clarity.
I don't need to turn myself [Bbm] into a [Ebm] parody.
I don't need a shit you do for [Eb] popularity.
They clearly didn't [Bbm] understand when I said I get out apparently.
My awareness [G] like Keanu in the [Gb] Matrix.
I'm saving souls and y'all complain about my lateness.
Now it's illegal for someone to walk in greatness.
They want the same, they want the same, but they don't take risks.
Now the world will [F] get to see its own [Bb] reflections.
And the anointed can pursue their [Bbm] own direction.
And if you're wrong and you're too proud [Eb] to hear correction,
walk into the hole you dug yourself, [Bbm] fuck a projection.
See me in my [C] freedom taking all my land back.
They said a lot against me thinking [Gb] I just stand back.
I got my legs beneath me, I got my hands back.
A lot of people [Bbm] sabotage, they couldn't stand that.
I turned to other chiefs, I took blow after [Bb] blow.
There's so much crisis in the world [Bbm] because you reap what you sow.
When you keep what you know [Eb] is meant for someone else.
The debt you dig [Db] for them, you might just end up in yourself.
I'm in the secret [Bb] place, I keep a sacred space.
They keep showing their hands, but [Gb] keep hiding their face.
If I'm a messenger, you block me, then you block the message.
So aggressive, the world you made is what you're left with.
Pride and ego [Bb] over love and truth is fuck up reckless.
Y'all niggas got a death wish, this [Gb] stupid leaves [Fm] me breathless.
_ _ [Ab] _
_ [Db] _ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Some place to be.
[F] Yeah. _
[Bb] Ain't ducking nothing.
[Gb] Just might have to build my own city.
I need a real nigga passport to enter.
Miss Hill, we ain't [Bb] going nowhere.
They gonna have to deal with us.
[Gb] Make them uncomfortable.
Yeah. _
