I've got the power
I've got the power
Like the crack of the whip, I Snap attack
Front to back, in this thing called rap
Dinging like a cymbal, rhyme devil on the heavenly level
Bang the bass, turn up the treble
Radical mind, day and night all the time
7-14, wise divine
Maniac brainiac, winning the game
I'm the lyrical Jesse James
Quality I possess and say I'm fresh
When my voice goes through the mesh
Of the microphone, that I am holding
Copy written lyrics, so they can't be stolen
If they all Snap, don't need the police
To try to save them, your voice don't see
So peace, stay off my back
Or I will attack and you don't want that
I've got the power
I've got the power
I've got the power
I've got the power
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic

Oh, my, god. Becky, look at her butt.
It is so big. [scoff] She looks like,
one of those rap guys' girlfriends.
But, you know, who understands those rap guys? *scoff*
They only talk to her, because,
she looks like a total prostitute, 'kay?
[bass ostinato]
I mean, her butt, is just so big.
I can't believe it's just so round, it's like,
out there, I mean - gross. Look!
She's just so ... black!
Cm
I like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, wanna pull out your tough
'Cause you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh baby, I wanna get with you
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But that butt you got makes me so horny
Ooh, Rump-o'-smooth-skin
You say you wanna get in my Benz?
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average groupie
I've seen them dancin'
To hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet,
Got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' flat butts are the thing
Take the average black man and ask him that
She gotta pack much back
So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Has your girlfriend got the butt? (Hell yeah!)
Tell 'em to shake it! (Shake it!) Shake it! (Shake it!)
Shake that healthy butt!
Baby got back!

I like 'em round, and big
And when I'm throwin' a gig
I just can't help myself, I'm actin' like an animal
Now here's my scandal
I wanna get you home
And ugh, double-up, ugh, ugh
I ain't talkin' bout Playboy
'Cause silicone parts are made for toys
I want 'em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Mix-a-Lot's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble
So I'm lookin' at rock videos
Knock-kneeded bimbos walkin' like hoes
You can have them bimbos
I'll keep my women like Flo Jo
A word to the thick soul sisters, I wanna get with ya
I won't cuss or hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna *fuck*
Till the break of dawn
Baby got it goin' on
A lot of simps won't like this song
'Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
And I'd rather stay and play
'Cause I'm long, and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on
So, ladies! {Yeah!} Ladies! {Yeah}
If you wanna roll in my Mercedes {Yeah!}
Then turn around! Stick it out!
Even white boys got to shout
Baby got back!

Baby got back!
Yeah, baby ... when it comes to females, Cosmo ain't got nothin'
to do with my selection. 36-24-36? Ha ha, only if she's 5'3.
Cm
So your girlfriend rolls a Honda, playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My anaconda don't want none
Unless you've got buns, hun
You can do side bends or sit-ups,
But please don't lose that butt
Some brothers wanna play that hard role
And tell you that the butt ain't gold
So they toss it and leave it
And I pull up quick to retrieve it
So Cosmo says you're fat
Well I ain't down with that!
'Cause your waist is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' bout stickin'
To the beanpole dames in the magazines-
You ain't it, Miss Thing!
Give me a sister, I can't resist her
Red beans and rice didn't miss her
Some knucklehead tried to dis
'Cause his girls are on my list
He had game but he chose to hit 'em
And I pull up quick to get wit 'em
So ladies, if the butt is round,
And you want a triple X throw down,
Dial 1-900-MIXALOT
And kick them nasty thoughts
Baby got back!

An end to need
Ab G7
And the politics of greed
A
Johny's in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
D
Look out kid
It's somethin' you did
A
God knows when
But you're doin' it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend
E
The man in the coon-skip cap
In the big pen
A
Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten.

Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talkin' that the heat put
Plants in the bed but
The phone's tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the DA
D
Look out kid
Don't matter what you did
A
Walk on your tip toes
Don't try, 'No Doz'
Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
E
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
A
You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows.
A
A
Get sick, get well
Hang around an ink well
Ring bell, hard to tell
If anything is goin' to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write Braille
Get jailed, jump bail, Join the army, if you failed
D
Look out kid
You're gonna get hit
A
But users, cheaters
Six-time losers
Hang around the theaters
E
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin' for a new fool
A
Don't follow leaders
Watch the parkin' meters.
A
A
Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift
B
Look out kid
They keep it all hid
A
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
E
Don't wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
A
The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles.

Gypsy Scotty is driving his big long yellow car
She flies like a bird over her shoulder
She whispers in his ear, boy, you are my star

The radio is playing
She left her shoes out in the back
He tells me a story about some girl he knows in Kentucky
He just made that story up; there ain't no girl like that

Why I love ya
Intro- Em, C, G, D (Play 2 times)
(Play Em Throughout Verse)
Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again
[Chorus]
C
I don't want to be the one
D
The battles always choose
C
Cuz inside I realize
D
That I'm the one confused
Em C
I don't know what's worth fighting for
D
Or why I have to scream
Em C
I don't know why I instigate
D
And say what I don't mean
Em C
I don't know how I got this way
D
I know it's not alright
C D
So I'm breaking the habit
C D Em
I'm breaking the habit tonight
(Play Em Thgroughout Verse)
Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I heard much more
Than anytime before
I have no options left again
[Chorus]
C
I dont want to be the one
D
The battles always choose
C
Cuz inside I realize
D
That I'm the one confused
Em C
I don't know what's worth fighting for
D
Or why I have to scream
Em C
I don't know why I instigate
D
And say what I don't mean
Em C
I don't know how I got this way
D
I'll never be alright
C D
So, I'm breaking the habit
C D Em
I'm breaking the habit tonight
(Bridge)
Em D
I'll paint it on the walls
C D
Cuz I'm the one at fault
Em D
I'll never fight again
C D
And this is how it ends
[Chorus]
Em C
I don't know what's worth fighting for
D
Or why I have to scream
Em C
But now I have some clarity
D
to show you what I mean
Em C
I don't know how I got this way
D
I'll never be alright

So, I'm breaking the habit

I'm breaking the habit

There is a house in New Orleans,
Am C E7
They call the "Rising Sun",

It's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
Am E Am C D F
And God, I know, I'm one.
Am C D F
My mother was a tailor,

She sewed my new blue jeans,
Am C D F
My father was a gambling man,
Am E Am C D F
Down in New Orleans.
Am C D F
Now the only thing a gambler needs,
Am C E7
Is a suitcase and a trunk,
Am C D F
And the only time, he's satisfied, is when
Am E Am C D F
He's on a drunk
[Solo]
[Verse 2]
Am C D F
Oh, mother, tell your children
Am C E7
Not to do what I have done -

Spend your lives in sin and misery

In the House of Rising Sun

Well, I've got one foot on the platform,
Am C E7
The other's on the train,
Am C D F
I'm going back to New Orleans,
Am E Am C D F
to wear that ball and chain.

Verse-
Bm F#7
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
A E7
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
G D
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
Em F#7
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim; I had to stop for the night.
Bm F#7
There she stood in the doorway; I heard the mission bell
A E7
And I was thinking to myself, This could be Heaven or this could be Hell
G D
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
Em F#7
There were voices down the corridor I thought I heard them say...
Chorus-
G D
Welcome to the Hotel California...
F#7 Bm F#7(on C#)Bm(on D)
Such a lovely place,(such a lovely place)such a lovely face...

Plenty of room at the Hotel California...
Em F#7
Any time of year,(any time of year)you can find it here...
Verse-
Bm F#7
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes Bends
A E7
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
G D
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Em F#7
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
Bm F#7
So I called up the Captain, Please bring me my wine
A E
He said, We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine
G D
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Em F#7
Wake you up in the middle of the night just to hear them say...
Chorus-
G D
Welcome to the Hotel California...

What a nice surprise,(what a nice surprise)bring your alibis...
Verse-
Bm F#7
Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice
A E7
And she said We are all just prisoners here, of our own device
G
And in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast
Em
They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill the beast
Bm F#7
Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
A E7
I had to find the passage back to place I was before
G D
Relax said the night man, We are programmed to receive.
Em F#7
You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.

[Verse 1} G C G / C / G / C / G / A / D /
You may think that I'm talking foolish
You've heard that I'm wild & I'm free
You may wonder how I can promise you now
This love that I feel for you always will be
Well you're not just time that I'm killing
I'm no longer one of those guys
As sure as I live this love that I give
Is gonna be yours until the day that I die -- Oh baby
[Chorus]
I'm gonna love you forever, forever & ever amen
As long as old men sit & talk about the weather
As long as old women sit & talk about old men
G C G
If you wonder how long I'll be faithful
C A
I'll be happy to tell you again
C D G Em A D G
I'm gonna love you forever & ever, forever & ever Amen
[Verse 2]
They say time takes it's toll on a body
Makes the young girl's brown hair turn grey
But honey, I don't care, I ain't in love with your hair
And if it all fell out well I'd love you anyway
They say that time can play tricks on a memory
Make people forget things they knew
But it's easy to see it's happening to me
I've already forgotten every woman but you --- Oh darlin'
[Chorus]
I'm gonna love you forever, forever & ever Amen
As long as old men sit & talk about the weather
As long as old women sit & talk about old men
G C G
If you wonder how long I'll be faithful
C A
Just listen to how this song ends
[Outro]

I'm gonna love you forever & ever, forever & ever Amen

Bm G
Im about to lose my mind
A
you've been gone for so long
A
I'm running out of time
G
I need a doctor
G
call me a doctor
F#
I need a doctor, doctor
I told the world one day I would pay it back
Say it on tape, and lay it, record it
So that one day I could play it back
But I don't even know if I believe it when I'm saying that
Y'all starting to creep in, everyday its so gray and black
Hope, I just need a ray of that
Cause no one see's my vision when I play it for 'em
They just say its wack
But they don't know what dope is
And I don't know if I was awake or asleep
When I wrote this,
All I know is you came to me when I was at my lowest
You picked me up, breath new life in me
I owe my life to you
But for the life of me I don't see why you don't see like I do
But it just dawned on me you lost a son
Demons fighting you, it's dark
Let me turn on the lights and brighten me it'll enlighten you
I don't think you realize what you mean to me
Not the slightest clue
'Cause me and you were like a crew
I was like your sidekick
You gon' either wanna fight me when I get off this fucking mic
Or you gon' hug me
But I'm out of options there's nothing else I can do 'cause
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life
It hurts when I see you struggle
You come to me with ideas
You say there just pieces so I'm puzzled
'Cause the shit I hear is crazy
But your either getting lazy or you don't believe in you no more
Seems like your own opinions, not one you can form
Can't make a decision you keep questioning yourself
Second guessing and its almost like your begging for my help
Like I'm your leader
Your supposed to fucking be my mentor
I can endure no more,
I demand you remember who you are
It was you, who believed in me
When everyone was telling you don't sign me
Everyone at the fucking label, lets tell the truth
You risked your career for me
I know it as well as you
Nobody wanted to fuck with the white boy
Dre, I'm crying in this booth
You saved my life, now maybe its my turn to save yours
But I can never repay you, what you did for me is way more
But I ain't giving up faith and you ain't giving up on me
Get up Dre, I'm dying, I need you, come back for fuck's sake
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
(I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life)
It literally feels like a lifetime ago
But I still remember the shit like it was just yesterday though
You walked in, yellow jump suit
Whole room, cracked jokes
Once you got inside the booth, told you, like smoke
Went through friends, some of them I put on
But they just left, they said they was riding to the death
But where the fuck are they now
Now that I need them, I don't see none of them
All I see is Slim
Fuck all you fair-weather friends
All I need is him
Fucking backstabbers
When the chips were down you just laughed at us
Now you 'bout to feel the fucking wrath of aftermath, fagots
You gon' see us in our lab jackets and ask us where the fuck we been?
You can kiss my indecisive ass crack maggots and the crackers ass
Little crack a jack beat making wack ass backwards producers,
I'm back bastards
One more CD and then I'm packing up my bags and as I'm leaving
I'll guarantee they scream Dre don't leave us like that man 'cause
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life

A Dadd9
It's been one week since you looked at me
A Dadd9
Cocked your head to the side and said "I'm angry"
A Dadd9
Five days since you laughed at me saying
A Dadd9
"Get that together come back and see me"
A Dadd9
Three days since the living room
A Dadd9
I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
A Dadd9
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
A Dadd9
but it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry
(During the rap its just kind of a funky rock thing I dont really know what its
called but you just hold 000033 if it feels more comfortable you can play G but
you're really only going to strum the high strings)
Hold it now and watch the hoodwink
As I make you stop, think
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman
I summon fish to the dish, although I like the Chalet Swiss
I like the sushi
'cause it's never touched a frying pan
Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes
Big like LeAnn Rimes
Because I'm all about value
Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits
You try to match wits, you try to hold me but I bust through
Gonna make a break and take a fake
I'd like a stinkin achin shake
I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours
Gotta see the show, cause then you'll know
The vertigo is gonna grow
Cause it's so dangerous,
you'll have to sign a waiver
[Chorus]
F#m7 Esus4
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
A/C# Dadd9
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
F#m7 Esus4
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
A/C#
Can't understand what I mean?
Dadd9
Well, you soon will
F#m7 Esus4
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
A/C# Dadd9
I have a history of taking off my shirt
[Verse 2]
A Dadd9
It's been one week since you looked at me
A
Threw your arms in the air
Dadd9
and said "You're crazy"
A Dadd9
Five days since you tackled me
A Dadd9
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
A Dadd9
It's been three days since the afternoon
A
You realized it's not my fault
Dadd9
not a moment too soon
A Dadd9
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
A Dadd9
And now I sit back and wait til you say you're sorry
(Again with the 000033 through the whole verse)
Chickity China the Chinese chicken
You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'
Watchin' X-Files with no lights on
We're dans la maison
I hope the Smoking Man's in this one
Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic
Like Sting I'm tantric
Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy
Like Kurasawa I make mad films
Okay, I don't make films
But if I did they'd have a Samurai
Gonna get a set a' better clubs
Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs
Just so my irons aren't always flying off the back-swing
Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon
'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes
That make me think the wrong thing
[Chorus]
F#m7 Esus4
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
A/C# Dadd9
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
F#m7 Esus4
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
A/C#
Can't understand what I mean?
Dadd9
Well, you soon will
F#m7 Esus4
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
A/C# Dadd9
I have a history of losing my shirt
[Verse 3]
A Dadd9
It's been one week since you looked at me
A
Dropped your arms to your sides
Dadd9
and said "I'm sorry"
A Dadd9
Five days since I laughed at you and said
A Dadd9
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do"
A Dadd9
Three days since the living room
A
We realized we're both to blame,
Dadd9
but what could we do?
A Dadd9
Yesterday you just smiled at me
A Dadd9
Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
[Outro]
A Esus4
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry

It'll still be two days till we say wasabi

G Am Em C

I wish today it will rain all day
Maybe that will kinda make the pain go away
Trying to forgive you for abandoning me
Praying but I think I'm still an angel away
Angel away, yeah strange in a way
Maybe that is why I chase strangers away
They got their guns out aiming at me
But I become near when they aiming at me
Me, me, me against them
Me against enemies, me against friends
Somehow they both seem to become one
A sea full of sharks and they all see blood
They start coming and I start rising
Must be surprising, I'm just summising
Win, thrive, soar, higher, higher, higher
More fire

Suffocating everytime it locks me in
Paint they own pictures than they crop me in
But I will remain where the top begins
Cause I am not a word, I am not a line
I am not a girl that can every be defined
I am not fly, I am levitation
I represent an entire generation
I hear the criticism loud and clear
That is how I know that the time is near
So we become alive in a time of fear
And I aint got no muthaf-cking time to spare
Cry my eyes out for days upon days
Such a heavy burden placed upon me

I work hard speak soft and carry a big stick
I ain't scurr'd I Ain't worr'd About You and your cheap tricks
beat me till i'm numb never will i succomb
patiently I will wait until your tantrum is done
and then step up to the plate i will
stand tall and still spewing bad ass lick
hoping one day it will all pay off
better sooner than later
i'm so ready for take off.

[Verse 1]
Am F
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Am F
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall
Am F
She sees the bartender in a pool of blood
Am F
Cries out My God they killed them all!
C F
Here comes the story of the Hurricane,
G C F
The man the authorities came to blame
Dm C
For something that he never done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell but one time
Am F C G
He could have been the champion of the world
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 2]
Am F
Three bodies lyin’ there does Patty see
Am F
And another man named Bello, movin’ around mysteriously
Am F
I didn’t do it, he says, and he throws up his hands
Am F
I was only robbin’ the register, I hope you understand
C F
I saw them leavin’, he says, and he stops
G C F
One of us had better call up the cops
Dm C
And so Patty calls the cops
Dm C Em
And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin’
Am F C G
In the hot New Jersey night
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 3]
Am F
Meanwhile, far away in another part of town
Am F
Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin’ around
Am F
Number one contender for the middleweight crown
Am F
Had no idea what kinda shit was about to go down
C F
When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road
G C F
Just like the time before and the time before that
Dm C
In Paterson that’s just the way things go
Dm C Em
If you’re black you might as well not show up on the street
Am F C G
’Less you wanna draw the heat
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 4]
Am F
Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops
Am F
Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowlin’ around
Am F
He said, I saw two men runnin’ out, they looked like middleweights
Am F
They jumped into a white car with out-of-state plates
C F
And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head
G C F
Cop said, Wait a minute, boys, this one’s not dead
Dm C
So they took him to the infirmary
Dm C Em
And though this man could hardly see
Am F C G
They told him that he could identify the guilty men
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 5]
Am F
Four in the mornin’ and they haul Rubin in
Am F
Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs
Am F
The wounded man looks up through his one dyin’ eye
Am F
Says, Wha’d you bring him in here for? He ain’t the guy!
C F
Yes, here’s the story of the Hurricane
G C F
The man the authorities came to blame
Dm C
For somethin’ that he never done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
Am F C G
The champion of the world
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 6]
Am F
Four months later, the ghettos are in flame
Am F
Rubin’s in South America, fightin’ for his name
Am F
While Arthur Dexter Bradley’s still in the robbery game
Am F
And the cops are puttin’ the screws to him, lookin’ for somebody to blame
C F
Remember that murder that happened in a bar?
G C F
Remember you said you saw the getaway car?
Dm C
You think you’d like to play ball with the law?
Dm C Em
Think it might-a been that fighter that you saw runnin’ that night?
Am F C G
Don’t forget that you are white
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 7]
Am F
Arthur Dexter Bradley said, I’m really not sure
Am F
Cops said, A poor boy like you could use a break
Am F
We got you for the motel job and we’re talkin’ to your friend Bello
Am F
Now you don’t wanta have to go back to jail, be a nice fellow
C F
You’ll be doin’ society a favor
G C F
That sonofa is brave and gettin’ braver
Dm C
We want to put his ass in stir
Dm C Em
We want to pin this triple murder on him
Am F C G
He ain’t no Gentleman Jim
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 8]
Am F
Rubin could take a man out with just one punch
Am F
But he never did like to talk about it all that much
Am F
It’s my work, he’d say, and I do it for pay
Am F
And when it’s over I’d just as soon go on my way
C F
Up to some paradise
G C F
Where the trout streams flow and the air is nice
Dm C
And ride a horse along a trail
Dm C Em
But then they took him to the jailhouse
Am F C G
Where they try to turn a man into a mouse
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 9]
Am F
All of Rubin’s cards were marked in advance
Am F
The trial was a pig-circus, he never had a chance
Am F
The judge made Rubin’s witnesses drunkards from the slums
Am F
To the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum
C F
And to the black folks he was just a crazy er
G C F
No one doubted that he pulled the trigger
Dm C
And though they could not produce the gun
Dm C Em
The D.A. said he was the one who did the deed
Am F C G
And the all-white jury agreed
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 10]
Am F
Rubin Carter was falsely tried
Am F
The crime was murder one, guess who testified?
Am F
Bello and Bradley and they both baldly lied
Am F
And the newspapers, they all went along for the ride
C F
How can the life of such a man
G C F
Be in the palm of some fool’s hand?
Dm C
To see him obviously framed
Dm C Em
Couldn’t help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
Am F C G
Where justice is a game
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 11]
Am F
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties
Am F
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
Am F
While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell
Am F
An innocent man in a living hell
C F
That’s the story of the Hurricane
G C F
But it won’t be over till they clear his name
Dm C
And give him back the time he’s done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
Am F C G
The champion of the world
It's the hard knock lCife (uh-huh) Dfor Eus
It's the hard knock lEife, Dfor Cus!!
Steada Treated,Cwe Dget Etricked
Steada kisses, Ewe gDet Ckicked
It's the hard knock life!! C D E
Verse
Just keep repeating C D E, E D C But here are the rest of the words-
From standin on the corners boppin
to drivin some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen
For droppin some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard
From the dope spot, with the smoke Glock
fleein the murder scene, you know me well
from nightmares of a lonely cell, my only hell
But since when y'all z know me to fail? Fuck naw
Where all my z with the rubber grips, bust shots
And if you with me mom I rub on your tits, and what-not
I'm from the school of the hard knocks, we must not
let outsiders violate our blocks, and my plot
let's stick up the world and split it fifty/fifty, uh-huh
Let's take the dough and stay real jiggy, uh-huh
And sip the Cris' and get pissy-pissy
Flow infinitely like the memory of my Biggie, baby!
You know it's hell when I come through
The life and times of Shawn Carter
Volume 2, y'all z get ready
Chorus
Verse
I flow for those 'dro'ed out; all my z
locked down in the ten by fo', controllin the house
We live in hard knocks, we don't take over we borrow blocks
Burn em down and you can have it back daddy, I'd rather that
I flow for chicks wishin, they ain't have to strip to pay tuition
I see you vision mama, I put my money on the longshots
All my ballers that's born to clock
Now Imma be on top whether I perform or not
I went from lukewarm to hot; sleepin on futons and cots
to King Size, dream machines, the green fives
I've seen pies let the thing between my eyes analyze life's ills
Then I put it down type braile
I'm tight grill with the phony, rappers y'all might feel we homies
I'm like still, y'all don't know me, shit!
I'm tight grill when my situation ain't improvin
I'm tryin to murder everything movin, feel me?!
Chorus
Verse
I don't KNOW how to sleep, I gotta eat, stay on my toes
Gotta a lot of beef, so logically, I prey on my foes
Hustling's still inside of me, and as far as progress
you'd be hard-pressed, to find another rapper hot as me
I gave you prophecy on my first joint, and y'all lamed out
Didn't really appreciate it, til the second one came out
So I stretched the game out, X'ed your name out
Put Jigga on top, and drop albums non-stop for ya, uh!
Chorus x2
... It's the hard knock life!!
................ it's the hard knock life!!

Aye...

key by the three when I chirp shawty chirp back

Louis nap sack

where I holding all the work at
E
What you know about that?
What you know about that?
What you know about that?
I know all about that
C G
Loaded 44s on the low where the cheese at
D A
Fresh off the jet to the Jects where the G's at
E
What you know about that?
What you know about that?
Hey what you know about that?
Hey I know all about that
G
Anytime I need to see your face, I just close my eyes,
and I am taken to a place where your crystal mind
C
and magenta fellings take up shelter in the
base of my spine, shade like a chick of cherry cola.
G
I don?t need to try to explain. I just hold on tight,
and if it happens again, I might move so slightly
C
to the arms and the lips and the face of the human
cannon-ball that I need to. I want you.
Kind of bridge-
D C
Come stand a little bit closer.Breathe in and get a bit higher
D C
You?ll never know what hit you when I get to you.....
Chorus-
Bb C G
Ooh, I want you. I don?t know if I need you, but
Bb C G
ooh, I?d die to find out.
Bb C G
Ooh, I want you. I don?t know if I need you, but
Bb C G5
ooh, I?d die to find out.
Verse 2-
I?m the kind of person who endorses a deep commitment.
Getting tough and getting perfect is what I live
for. But a look and then the smell of perfume, it?s like I?m
down on the floor and I don?t know what I?m in for.
Conversation, there?s a time and place in the interaction
of a lover, and I make it the time I?m talking,
using the words, using words can be likened to a
deep sea diver who is swimming with a raincoat.
Bridge (kind of)-
D C
Come stand a little bit closer.Breathe in and get a bit higher

You?ll never know what hit you when I get to you.....

ooh, I?d die to find out.
Bb C G
Ooh, I want you. I don?t know if I need you, but
Bb C G
ooh, I?d die to find out. So can?t we find out?
Really weird thing-
Bb5 C5 G5 Bb5 C5 G5
Softly as the animals fall so far ahead.
Bb5 C5 G5 Bb5 C5 G5
Softly as the animals fall so far ahead.

A A A A
A
I was getting kinda tired
A
Of her endless chatter
A
Nothing I could say
A
Ever seemed to matter
D
So I took a little drive
D
Just to clear my head
A A
I saw a flashing neon up ahead
E
It looked like a place
E
To find some satisfaction
A [play first note only; then Rest]
With a little less talk
And a lot more action
A
I paid the man at the door
A
And pushed my way to the bar
A
Shouted for a drink
A
Over a screaming guitar
D
A drunk on a stool
D
Tried to mess with my head
A
But I didn't even listen
A
To a word he said
E
I knew somewhere
E
Amid all this distraction
A [repeat of first note...]
Was a little less talk
And a lot more action
[Chorus]
D
A little less talk
D
If you please
A
A lot more loving
A
Is what I need
E
Let's get on down
E
To the main attraction
A [first note...]
With a little less talk
And a lot more action
A
Well she was fighting them off
A
At a corner table
A
She had a longneck bottle
A
She was peeling the label
D
The look on her face
D
It was perfectly clear
A
She said somebody please
A
Get me out of here
E
The look she shot me
E
Through the glass refraction
A [first note...]
Said a little less talk
And a lot more action

[Drake- Verse 1]
I've asked about you and they've told me things
But my mind didn't change, I still the feel the same
What's a life with no fun? please don't be so ashamed
I've had mine, you've had yours, we both know
We know, **strumming fast here sounds good** they don't get you like I will
My only wish is I die real
Cause that truth hurts, and those lies heal
And you can't sleep thinking that he lies still
So you cry still, tears all in the pillow case
Big girls all get a little taste
Pushing me away so I give her space
Dealing with a heart that I didn't break
I'll be there for you, I will care for you
I keep thanking you, just don't know
Try to run from that, say you're done with that
On your face girl, it just don't show
When you're ready, just say you're ready
When all the baggage just ain't as heavy
And the parties over, just don't forget me
We'll change the pace and we'll just go slow
*stop strumming* Won't ever have to worry,
You won't ever have to hide
If you've seen all my mistakes
So look me in my eyes
Am, G, F

[Drake- Verse 2]
It's my birthday, I get high if I want to
Can't deny that I want you, but I lie if have to
Cause you don't say you love me
To your friend when they ask you
Even though we both know that you do (you do) *strumming here sounds good*
One time, been in love one time
You and all your girls in the club one time
All so convinced that you're following your heart
Cause your mind don't control what it does sometimes
We all have our nights though, don't be so ashamed
I've had mine, you've had yours, we both know
We know, *stop strumming* you hate being alone
You ain't the only one
You hate the fact that you bought the dream
And they sold you one
You love your friends but somebody shoulda told you somin' to save you
Instead they said…

Somewhere there's speaking
Bm C
It's already coming in
Am Em Bm C
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
Am Em
You never could get it
Bm C
Unless you were fed it
Am Em Bm C
Now you're here and you don't know why
//It's all the same pattern here//
But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return
Chorus
Am G
He's everything you want
Bm C
He's everything you need
Am G
He's everything inside of you
D C
That you wish you could be
//Same here again
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why
//Just the same as b4 chorus
You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say
Back to Chorus
//Same as the chorus above
Em C
But you'll just tight
C
And watch it unwind
Em D C
It's only what you're asking for
Em C
And you'll be just fine
Em C
With all of your time
Em D C
It's only what you're waiting for
//Do as the top
Out of the island
Into the highway
Past the places where you might have turned
You never did notice
But you still hide away
The anger of angels who won't return
//Do as the chorus
Chorus
I am everything you want
I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
But I mean nothing to you and I don't know why
And I don't know why
Why
I don't know

[Verse 1]
When the palm of my two hands hold each other
That feels different
From when your hands are in mine
That's just the way it is
And when my voice is screaming out to my own ears
That feels different
From when I hear yours
Now thats just the way it
Womb To Tomb
Verse 1
Lay down you gun, lay down your god
We are but germs on one big rock
The universe is spreading thin
It's up to us to bring it in
My suicide as sacrifice
Would keep the secret locked inside
And so I breathe my second life
Living proof, that love survives
Chorus-
Your life is not your own
From womb to tomb you are bound to others
3X
Verse 2-
There is no I, there is only we
So soon shall this whole wide world see
Around the sun which we believe
Take all but only what you need
Please take these words to paradise
Show them there is more than one good life
We are all one, once every time
We ask why
Chorus
Bridge-
We are here
We are now
We are this moment
We are loud
We are the answer
Of love you're after
There is no one son of god
We all are

Maybe i'm in doubt, oh oh
Now don't even think you know, no no

Everything you say, it's like a gold with a view

I'm on the opposite side of it, truthfully
I know you want it so come and get it

Should have known you was trouble from the first kiss
Had your eyes wide open
Why were they open? (Ooh)
Pre: Am Em Em F E
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever ask
'Cause what you don't understand is
Chorus: Am F C G F G C E7 Am F E7
I'd catch a grenade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Throw my hand on a blade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'd jump in front of a train for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
You know I'd do anything for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, oh, I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for ya, baby
But you won't do the same
No, no, no, no
Verse 2: Am Am Em Em (E7)
Black, black, black and blue
Beat me 'til I'm numb

Yeah, you'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car

Boys call you sexy (What's up sexy?)
and you don't care what they say
See everytime you turn around

Verse 1- G-F#-F-Em
Now I got a confession
(haha, ha, ha ha)
When I was young I

And I promised myself that I'd
do anything (haha, ha, ha ha)
Anything at all for them to
notice me (haha, ha, ha ha)
Refrain- G-F#-F-Em

Want them to know what your name is
'Cause see when I was younger I would say
Chorus- G-F#-F-Em
When I grow up I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star I wanna be in movies

When I grow up Fresh and clean number
one chick when I step out on the scene

But be careful

(Repeat Chorus and Post Chorus)
(Repeat Chorus and Post Chorus)
Verse 1: We'll do it all, everything, on our own.
We don't need, anything, or anyone.
Half Chorus: If I lay here, if I just lay here
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
Verse 2: I don't quite know, how to say, how I feel
Those three words, I said too much, but not enough.
Full Chorus:
If I lay here, if I just lay here
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
Forget what we're told, before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.
Verse 3: Let's waste time, chasing cars, around our heads.
I need your grace, to remind me, to find my own.
Full Chorus:
Bridge: All that I am, all that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where, confused about how as well
just know that these things will never change for us at all.

By the time you hear this I will have already spiraled up
I would never do nothing to let you cowards fuck my world up
If I was you, I would duck, or get struck like lightening,
Fighters keep fighting, put your lighters up, point em' skyward uh
Had a dream I was king, I woke up, still king...
This rap game's nipple is mine for the milking,
Till nobody else even fucking feels me, till' it kills me
I swear to god I'll be the fucking illest in this music
There is or there ever will be, disagree?
Feel free, but from now on I'm refusing to ever give up
The only thing I ever gave's using no more excuses
Excuse me if my head is too big for this building
And pardon me if I'm a cocky prick but you cocks are slick
Poppin shit on how you flipped ya life around, crock-o-shit
Who you dicks try to kid, flipped dick, you did the opposite
You stayed the same, cause cock backwards is still cock you pricks
I love it when I tell em shove it
Cause it wasn't that long ago when Marshall sat, luster lacked, lustered
Cuz he couldn't cut mustard, muster up nothing
Brain fuzzy, cause he's buzzin', woke up from that buzz
Now you wonder why he does it, how he does it
Wasn't cause he had buzzards circle around his head
Waiting for him to drop dead, was it?
Or was it, cause them es wrote him off
Little hussy ass, cause f-ck it, guess it doesn't matter now, does it
What difference it make?
What it take to get it through your thick skulls
As if this aint some bullshit
People don't usually come back this way
From a place that was dark as I was in
Just to get to this place
Now let these words be like a switch blade to a haters rib cage
And let it be known from this day forward
I wanna just say thanks cause your hate is what gave me the strength
So let em bic's raise cause I came with 5'9′ but I feel like I'm
6'8″

By the time you hear this I'll probably already be outtie
I advance like going from toting iron to going and buying 4 or 5 of the
Homies the iron man Audi
My daddy told me slow down, boy, you goin to blow it
And I aint gotta stop the beat a minute
To tell Shady I love him the same way that he did Dr Dre on the Chronic
Tell him how real he is or how high I am
Or how I would kill for him for him to know it
I cried plenty tears, my daddy got a bad back
So it's only right that I right till he can march right into that post
Office and tell em to hang it up
Now his career's Lebron's jersey in 20 years
I'll stop when I'm at the very top
You shitted on me on your way up
It's 'bout to be a scary drop
Cause what goes up must come down
You going down on something you don't wanna see like a hairy box
Every hour, happy hour now
Life is wacky now
Used to have to eat the cat to get the pussy
Now I'm just the cats meooww, ow
Classic cow, always down for the catch weight like Pacquiao
Ya'll are doomed
I remember when T-Pain aint wanna work with me
My car starts itself, parks itself and autotunes
Cause now I'm in the Aston
I went from having my city locked up
To getting treated like Kwame Kilpatrick
And now I'm fantastic
Compared to a weed high
And y'all s just gossipin' like es on a radio and TV
See me, we fly
Y'all buggin out like Wendy Williams staring at a bee-hive
And how real is that
I remember signing my first deal and now I'm the second best I can deal
With that
Now Bruno can show his ass, without the MTV awards gag
