I need a light [E] so _ [G] I can smoke [C] away this pain.
[Bm] _ I _ [D] need a drink _ [C#m] _ so I can [F#] drink [Em] away this pain.

[Em] somebody to share my pain.
[Bm] _ _ _
I [F#m] need a song, [Bm] _ [B] _ a random song to [C] say.
_ [D] _ _ _
[B] Long Beach [D] back in the day was all hustling.
[E] Young niggas in the [N] neighborhood struggling.
Praying [C] to God we amount to something.
While [D] living on the street where they constantly busting.
Big Warren told us that they can't [E] hold us.
Niggas ain't shit till they pass [B] away.
So I [C] watched my step but [Bm] when Ola May left,
I was a motherfucking basket case for [D] war.
God bless [E] me, because I'll be on the east
where they want to arrest me.
[C] I break red so they want to suspect [D] me.
[N] But look me in my eye and say they want to protect me.
[F#m] Yeah, ruthless.
My [G#] style as a juvenile ran with a gang.
Got me a [C] profile.
As a child in the beach I was wild, [A#] ready to [D] die.
And that's why I need a light so [E] _ _ I can smoke [G] away this [Em] pain.
[D] _ [G] I _ [D] need a drink [E] so [F#] _ I can drink [Em] away this pain.
[F#] _ _ [B] May [D] need a wife, _ [E] somebody _ to [C] share my pain.
[Bm] _ _ _
I [D] need a song, _ [B] [G] a _ new [C] song to say.
_ [Bm] _ _ Could it be it [F#m] was all so simple?
[D] Dropping a [E] slick instrumental.
[N] Snoop bussing about the shit we went through.
[C] Nate singing about the [D] city we came from.
And niggas so [Bm] tight, wasn't nothing we [D] wouldn't do.
Time keeps [E] slipping, but I ain't tripping nigga.
It's all about [B] my children.
[C] So you can say that [Bm] bullshit,
because if I pour my shit nigga, I'm gonna kill you.
[D] The streets is [E] watching,
[B] and niggas feel victim from LA to Watts and Compton.
[C] But life goes [D] on.
It's just another song if you want the one gone.
[D] Listen, ruthless.
My [E] style is a juvenile.
[C] But now I got a brand new G-track.
Big one gotta [Bm] stay Trump tight,
cause he got the fly, and that's why I [D] need a light.
[E] So _ [B] I can smoke [Em] away this pain.
_ [D] _ [A] I _
[Bm] [D] need a drink [E] so _ I can drink [Em] away this pain.
[Bm] _ _ _
I [D] need a white, white, [E] _ _ somebody to [C] share my pain.
[D] _ [Bm] _ I [F#m] need a song, [Bm] _ [Em] a _ brand new song to sing.
_ [D] _ _ [Gm] _ _
[B] [D] Listen, caviar wishes.
[E] Twist and [Bm] stitches.
All out [D#m] race for the riches.
[C] Got a nigga [D] missing what rich is,
and [A] what a life mean when you [G#] do it for the [F#m] kids.
It's for my [E] family, y'all.
[N] Really the only one who understand me, y'all.
[C] Cause it ain't [Bm] hard to ball,
but then who got your back when it's time to [D] fall?
And it's amazing [B] to [D#] stay up on top,
your [Em] game so close to the paper.
Time brings [D] change in [G] mind,
but then don't let the change bring your [D] mind no time.
Clearly [C#m] a conspiracy.
Niggas right [G] near me still ain't hearing me.
[C] That's how it's [Bm] always gonna fly till you ready to die,
and that's why.
I [D] need a light, light, [E] _ _ so I can smoke [Em] away this pain.
[C] _ [D] _ [E] I _ [D] need a drink, drink, [G#m] _ so I can drink [C] away this pain.
[D] _ _ [G] _ _
[D] Maybe a white, white, [E] _ _ _ [Em]
somebody to share my pain.
[C] _ [D] _ _ I [F] need a song, song, song, song, song. _
