[Intro]
Am   Dm    Dm    Em     Am
AmOoh no-Dmohh, Dmno-oEmhhAm  
AmOoh no-Dmohh, Dmno-oEmhhAm  
[Chorus]
AmIt ain't all good Dmand that's the truth
DmThings ain't goin' like you Emthink they should
       AmIt's all on you
AmIt ain't all good Dmand that's the truth
DmThings ain't goin' like you Emthink they should
       AmIt's all on you
[Verse]
AmI don't care about what you Dmthink you see
DmThe thangs you want to Emknow when you Amlook at me
AmGod knows I done been through and Dmpaid my dues
DmCan't change how you Emfeel, 'cause itAm's all on you-whoahhha-ohh-yeah
I wish that, Amyou could be a little bit more upfront
DmWeigh the situation how you want right
DmThe lovin' that you claim is just a Emfour letter word
The Amthird letter's invitin' so visualize the verb
AmYou curve thoughtways when you're handlin' the candleabra
DmSo you sittin' on the baby grand
DmTransmittin' like you're made of Emman
AmBut you paint a funny face like a chick
AmWhen I see you I'ma tell you quick that
[Chorus]
AmIt ain't all good Dmand that's the truth
DmThings ain't goin' like you Emthink they should
       AmIt's all on you
AmI can't believe we built this large pizza pie together no pepperoni
DmYeah, you wanted extra cheese, sometimes I gave you extras
DmHow we divided slices like the EmRed Sea theory
AmI was Moses hopelessly scorned by your thorn zapora
AmTried to bring that fairy-tale life, you wanted horror
DmBut my microscope couldn't see or cope with that
DmI had to bolt from that, and left you deEmad in the sea
AmIt's better for me, I'm satisfied with reppin' for D
AmWe were certified hot, then dropped to lukewarm
DmNow we back up in the spot, claimin' never been gone
DmNiggaz who cut us off, wanna rEmeattach us now
Am(Them girls who brushed us off, say they want some numbers to dial)
AmYeah, I give that ass a number and some lumber to pile
DmNow catch a curve from my kick (Or show me lovin' by brick)
DmSo stick to the same plan, don't come Emshakin' my hand
Like we peeps, it ain't Ambeef but be sure to understand
AmBetween us, it ain't all
[Chorus]
AmIt ain't all good Dmand that's the truth
DmThings ain't goin' like you Emthink they should
       AmIt's all on you
AmIt ain't all good Dmand that's the truth
DmThings ain't goin' like you Emthink they should
       AmIt's all on you
AmYou see them kids be schemin' on what we done copped
DmAlways out there schemin'
DmThey steady fiendin' for the moment they can Emget us off the block
AmWhy they always fiendin'?
AmYour people might have your back, but you need to watch your front
DmIndeed, ain't nothin' guaranteed
DmThat's the truth, things ain't goin' like you think Emthey should
Am
AmA lot say they wanna walk in my size 10's
Aight then, here's a pair
DmLace 'em up tight then you might feel what was dealt to me
DmYou see ain't no young boEmys up in here, keep a Amclear head
AmTryin' to keep my pockets on stuffed like deer heads
DmUpon the wall, so all the gall we get from y'all don't faze
DmSo mind your biz and Emwalk away
Am'Cause I'm never gonna let you up inside my maze
AmI don't care about what you Dmthink you see
DmThe thangs you want to Emknow when you Amlook at me
AmGod knows I done been there and Dmpaid my dues
DmI can't change how you Emfeel, 'cause it's Amall, on you-whoahha-ohh
[Chorus]
AmIt ain't all good Dmand that's the truth
DmThings ain't goin' like you Emthink they should
       AmIt's all on you
AmIt ain't all good Dmand that's the truth
DmThings ain't goin' like you Emthink they should
       AmIt's all on you

[Intro]

Am Dm Dm Em Am

Ooh no-ohh, no-ohh

Am Dm Dm Em Am

Ooh no-ohh, no-ohh

[Chorus]

Am Dm

It ain't all good and that's the truth

Dm Em

Things ain't goin' like you think they should

It's all on you

Am Dm

It ain't all good and that's the truth

Dm Em

Things ain't goin' like you think they should

It's all on you

[Verse]

Am Dm

I don't care about what you think you see

Dm Em Am

The thangs you want to know when you look at me

Am Dm

God knows I done been through and paid my dues

Dm Em Am

Can't change how you feel, 'cause it's all on you-whoahhha-ohh-yeah

I wish that, you could be a little bit more upfront

Weigh the situation how you want right

Dm Em

The lovin' that you claim is just a four letter word

The third letter's invitin' so visualize the verb

You curve thoughtways when you're handlin' the candleabra

So you sittin' on the baby grand

Dm Em

Transmittin' like you're made of man

But you paint a funny face like a chick

When I see you I'ma tell you quick that

[Chorus]

Am Dm

It ain't all good and that's the truth

Dm Em

Things ain't goin' like you think they should

It's all on you

I can't believe we built this large pizza pie together no pepperoni

Yeah, you wanted extra cheese, sometimes I gave you extras

Dm Em

How we divided slices like the Red Sea theory

I was Moses hopelessly scorned by your thorn zapora

Tried to bring that fairy-tale life, you wanted horror

But my microscope couldn't see or cope with that

Dm Em

I had to bolt from that, and left you dead in the sea

It's better for me, I'm satisfied with reppin' for D

We were certified hot, then dropped to lukewarm

Now we back up in the spot, claimin' never been gone

Dm Em

Niggaz who cut us off, wanna reattach us now

(Them girls who brushed us off, say they want some numbers to dial)

Yeah, I give that ass a number and some lumber to pile

Now catch a curve from my kick (Or show me lovin' by brick)

Dm Em

So stick to the same plan, don't come shakin' my hand

Like we peeps, it ain't beef but be sure to understand

Between us, it ain't all

[Chorus]

Am Dm

It ain't all good and that's the truth

Dm Em

Things ain't goin' like you think they should

It's all on you

Am Dm

It ain't all good and that's the truth

Dm Em

Things ain't goin' like you think they should

It's all on you

You see them kids be schemin' on what we done copped

Always out there schemin'

Dm Em

They steady fiendin' for the moment they can get us off the block

Why they always fiendin'?

Your people might have your back, but you need to watch your front

Indeed, ain't nothin' guaranteed

Dm Em

That's the truth, things ain't goin' like you think they should

A lot say they wanna walk in my size 10's

Aight then, here's a pair

Lace 'em up tight then you might feel what was dealt to me

Dm Em Am

You see ain't no young boys up in here, keep a clear head

Tryin' to keep my pockets on stuffed like deer heads

Upon the wall, so all the gall we get from y'all don't faze

Dm Em

So mind your biz and walk away

'Cause I'm never gonna let you up inside my maze

Am Dm

I don't care about what you think you see

Dm Em Am

The thangs you want to know when you look at me

Am Dm

God knows I done been there and paid my dues

Dm Em Am

[Chorus]

Am Dm

It ain't all good and that's the truth

Dm Em

Things ain't goin' like you think they should

It's all on you

Am Dm

It ain't all good and that's the truth

Dm Em

Things ain't goin' like you think they should

It's all on you
