[C] [G]
[F] [Am]
[G]
[F] [Am]
I really know how it feels to be [G] stressed out, stressed out.
[Am] When you're face to face with your adversity.
I really know how it feels to [G] be stressed out, stressed out.
[Am] We're gonna make this thing work out eventually.
Yo, [C] I ain't one to complain, but this thing's in the game.
[G] What's your name?
Consequence, I'm tight, burnt like flames.
[Am] And why's that?
American dream, they got this ghetto kid in the fiend.
Don't stress that, cause it's not in your bloodstream.
Your whole being, comes from greatness.
[G] Remember, Jake Paul [Bm] got you caught in the storms of December.
[Am] And brothers on the block packing knives like September.
Things you said you wouldn't pick up, you're talking's all slanted.
Yo, I be on the avenue, where they be acting brand new.
[G] I'm sludging on these B-block joints for sure to prove.
[F] All of [Am] a sudden, I saw these two kids flirting.
Talking out they points, but they wasn't [C] saying nothing.
My hand was on my pulley, they was acting [G] unruly.
Yo, word up, yo, I was tight, caught up.
[Am] But I swallowed my pride and let that nonsense ride.
Because the positive, it seems that negative died.
[C] Yo, we was at the Dyke game, making these taxes, really.
[G] Slamming, steady running off at the Willie.
[F] I had my [Am] cash, fixed my rent, grew it, my play dough.
I got a C-solution on my girls, I blow.
Took them shits [C] in my palm, let them hit the floor.
[G] Kept my eyeballs open for them pigs, po-po.
[Am] I got to go on the air, she my parole by four.
But I got a steady 50, boys like Jojo.
And I was doing it, till I met Ice Spike and Mike [G] Monroe.
They had my pockets, Tokyo, that's right.
[Am] Yo, I know the feeling, when you feeling like you're killing.
You be having good thoughts, but the evil's be revealing.
And the stress is a lie, can take you off the right [G] path.
Jealousy and envy tends to infiltrate your [F] staff.
We got [Am] to hold it in, so we can move on past.
All that Mercedes, so we can get through fast.
[C] I really know how this feels to be in [D] stress, loud stress.
[Am] When you're mixed with your mom, your [C] teens.
[Am] I really know how this feels to [D] be in stress, loud stress.
[Am] Make this thing work out evenly.
You got the NWO, low cash flow.
Your [G] baby's on the way, and you don't know [C] who.
And cross town niggas tryna buss at you.
Ayo, they got me stressed out, and you don't know what to do.
So bring this code out black, so it just do my car tax.
With a poultry scrap, broke a shit pistol slap.
The switch hitting, Queens niggas liquid sauce sitting.
With Royal Puppy, and now your first love is thrilled.
Your vision of the mills got crushed like hay.
Lover tried to rise to the top, you just couldn't recover.
And all I want is my laceration of the pie.
To get this wet pain before the water runs dry.
Niggas slap dancing, yo I don't know why.
Your chicken's mentioned, she got you cruising to the pokey like Smokey.
The stress be tryna three stack her homie.
While I be tryna get star status like Shinobi.
So we can build a dynasty just like the [G] Kobe.
And all I want is the world to know my [F] seed.
You [Am] money hungry niggas it's 730.
And got me stressed out like you're full of MC.
I really know how it feels to [G] be stressed out, stressed out.
[Am] When you're pissed with your adversity.
[C]
[Am] I really know how it feels to [G] be stressed out, stressed out.
