It's starting to hit me like a heavy [A] thing.

[F] [Am]
[B] [Am] [A] Last night we're working down, sitting there in Chinatown.
And I stand there with that [G] crime, always being in the wrong [C] place, at the [A] wrong time.
Two bad people say, what's wrong with the kids today?
I tell you right now, they've got nothing to [G] lose.
[F] They're building empire [A] with fraud.
Shouting, used to work after school, after set on the show.
Gotta hustle if it wasn't education, [G] yeah, it's [F] gotta haunt, you know.
[A] Now it's on the streets all day, selling crack to the people who pay.
Like the 47th Post's best friend, [G] business [F] the American way.
[Dm]
[D] Sign, these messages, sign, drop down, [Dm] no [D] sign, no stop, down.
[A]
[F] Oh, [A] it's [D] coming, [A] it's coming, [F] [A] it's coming.
[D]
The [A] man trapped again, holds his cheese in his hand.
Privateer in power for a private of [G] another.
Game [C] point, nobody [A] wins.
Declines round the time, what happened to the dreams that fly?
Share it all back, we'll load it up again.
[G] [F] Another [D] empire, decide.
[Dm] Missed my [Em] sign, drops [Dm] out, no [D] sign,
[Dm] no [G] stop, down.
[A]
[F] Who will be in power [A] in the world?
