Thugs cry, when thugs cry, [A] when [G] [B] thugs [E] [Em] cry, when thugs cry, [Am] when [B] thugs cry.
[E] [Em]
Born thuggin' and lovin' the way I [A] came, my big money clutchin',
Bustin' while he [Em] vape and cocaine bust, my pose Russian,
Some I'm clutchin' into insanity, they shot at my cousin, now we bustin' at they old family.
Coppers wanna see me blurry, I ain't worried, [A] I got a lot on them Nicki A,
Cause I'm fuckin' his secretary, [G] I [B] black out, snort cussin', bust him and touch [E] him more,
They panickin', bitches [Em] duckin', I rush em, I fuck em all,
Probably be an old man before I understand, [A] why I had to live my life with pistols close in hand,
[B] Kidnapped my homies, used to cut up face up bad, [Em] they even raped us, so we blazed they pad,
Automatic shots sprang out on every block, they puttin' [A] hits out on politicians, even cops,
I ain't [Bm] lyin', they got me sleepin' with my infrared beams,
And in my [E] dreams I hear [Em] motherfuckers screamin', what is the meaning, when thugs cry.
Battle scars and clothes caskets are [A] multiplied, motherfuckers die, don't ask why, [F#] when thugs [B] cry,
We don't shed tears, we share blood, you [Em] still wanna be a thug, when thugs cry.
Battle scars and clothes caskets are [Am] multiplied, motherfuckers die, don't ask why, when [G] thugs cry,
[B] We don't shed tears, we share [Em] blood, you still wanna be a thug, when thugs cry.
Maybe my addiction to friction got me [Am] buggin', where is the love, never quit my ambition to thug,
[G] Ain't shed a [B] tear since the old school years of elementary, niggas I used to [Em] love, enclosed in penitentiary,
Still, homie, keep it real, how does it feel [Am] to lose your life over something that you did as a kid,
[G] You all [B] alone, no communication, block or default, [E] don't get along with your pops, [Em] and plus your moms is gone,
Wait, did we go wrong, I put my soul in this song, [Am] to help us grow in time, but now our minds is gone,
[B] We went from brothers and sisters, to niggas and bitches, [E] we went from welfare and living, [Em] to worldwide richness,
So something changed in this dirty game, everything's strange, [A] lost all my homies over cocaine,
See [B] they ask me if I shed a tear, I ain't lie, [Em] you see I gotta get high and die, cause even thugs cry,
Battle scars and clothes caskets are [A] multiplied, motherfuckers die, don't ask why, [B] when thugs cry,
We don't shed tears, we shed [Em] blood, cause you still wanna be a thug, when thugs cry,
Battle scars and clothes [E] caskets are multiplied, motherfuckers [A] die, don't ask why, [B] when thugs cry,
We don't shed tears, we shed [Em] blood, cause you still wanna be a thug, when thugs cry,
I got annoying bitches, illegal adventures, [Am] busting motherfuckers with uppercuts,
I leave them with this, [B] cause in my criminal law, nobody violates the [Em] gun,
I'm right in there with a mothafucka family, nigga family, start with my purpose,
I'm straight like you can handle my team, submersible, [A] it's a mob type, I take a man in your dreams,
Leaving [G] motherfuckers [B] drowning in their own shit, glad to save a [Em] bitch's name,
You slap off the punk bitches, [E] that turn to bitches, regulate my area to terror, I [A] represent, make your people disappear,
You wondering where they [B] went in my cooler, nigga, since I sold my soul,
[Em] Addiction to the steel, nevermind, you ain't subdued,
Cause even thugs cry, don't let me suffer any [A] longer, smoke a pound of marijuana,
I'm a thug, I know where they [B] go, where they end all my misses,
It's that close, I suppose that's why I [Em] murder my foes, when thugs cry,
[A] Making all you motherfuckers die, when [B] thugs cry,
[Em] Try to get high, you die, [G] when thugs cry,
