[Eb] [Cm]
[Fm] [Bbm]
[Eb] [Cm]
[Fm] I'm sick of waiting in vain, tired of [Bbm] waiting again, I'm sick of waiting in vain, tired
of waiting in vain, thinking of making a change, my mind's [Eb] breaking the chains, every phase,
every [Cm] happening crazy, when it's said and done, my head is right back in the haze, [Fm] I'm
ready for the next chapter and page, to start [Bbm] back in my age, and part ways with black thought,
from [Eb] back in the days, I'm stargazing from the [Cm] back of the stage, questioning if who
y'all praise is worthy of praise, [Fm] what's the phrase, bygones is bygone, niggas who used
to be the underdog is icons, people say the light shines once in a lifetime, is this midlife
I'm thinking not now but right now I need some kind of sign that the future is bright
now I'm walking around through the light moonlight
spot now I'm living the day which one is my look-alike
now I'm moving ahead
[Bbm]
[Eb] Everything's changing [Cm] around me and I want to change [Fm] too
It's one thing I [Bbm] know it ain't cool being no [Eb] fool
I feel different [Cm] today I don't know what else to [Fm] say
But I'ma get my shit [Bbm] together It's now or [Eb] never
[Cm]
[Fm] Yo opportunities lost because I blew em On the sunniest days of my life I cried [Eb] to
em My uncle's out to picture in pops [Cm] I barely
knew him And I would pray to god but I'm tired of
lying [Fm] to him Tired of trying to run from the things inside
[Bbm] of us Got a lot of fam and a lot of [Eb] admirers
Tell me that I should [Cm] aspire to change But when I think of change and it's like why

I'm still here I'm still here
I'm still here I'm still here
I'm still here I'm still here
I'm still here I'm still here
I'm still here I'm still here
And I want to [Fm] change too It's one thing I [Bbm] know it ain't cool being
no [Eb] fool I feel different [Cm] today I don't know what
else to [Fm] say But I'ma get my shit [Bbm] together
It's now or [Eb] never
[Cm]
[Fm] When I look into the mirror and see my own image
It feel like it's something else far up in the [F] distance
Something I want to see but [Cm] something that's resistant
And everyday the heart is growing more [Fm] persistent
I never noticed it before but now I [Bbm] can't miss it
And the constant pound is driving me [Eb] ballistic
I ran from it for years [Cm] but it's still next to me
And it's growing stronger, taking leave of [Fm] less of me
I can't fight it now I know it's just destiny
And I just wonder what's gonna happen when it [Ab] catches me
Will it leave me face down in the [Fm] Chesapeake?
Or will it just start bringing out the best of me?
But is the best of me really just the worst of me?
And if so, yesterday could be my anniversary
And since it's so important to have courage with me
I'm trying to get rid of these ghosts that's cursing me
I feel a change there's an absolute [Bbm] certainty
This what's going on is a state of [Eb] emergency
Everything's changing [Cm] around me
And I want a [Fm] chance to
It's one thing I [Bbm] know
It ain't cool being no [Eb] fool
