_ _ _ [Dm] Bum bum bum bum bum bum

Bum bum bum _ _ _
[Dm] Childhood and part of my life was every day, you see
I was born and raised in a slum, that's all
There wasn't one room checked except another chair beside me
We hardly had enough food or rooms
_ It was hard, yeah
[F] You hear this song, you hear it now [D] time of day
_ _ _ _ _ My grandmother didn't know the meaning of the word bum bum
She'd get your back, your mama, spit it out like dirt
I'd have to go to the top, but I never did, bah bah
She'd break it down hard and I'd take the crown
And I went, bah, _ _ _ yeah, oh, brown man
She'd say it one more [Am] time
Bah, _ _ _ yeah, oh, [D] brown man _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] She'd give us everything, all that life had to [A] buy
But [Dm] the way I wrapped you in my lap, [A] I want to show you that
[Dm] It's a dog eat dog world and it [A] ain't no lie
_ _ Ain't no lie, it won't take you back
[Dm] _ _ _ _
