[Intro]
Am7 Bm7 Em7
Am7 Bm7 Em7
[Verse 1]
I'm workin' on a Am7world premiere
And I could see the Bm7world from hereEm7  
They ask me where I'm Am7going from here
Shit, anywhere long as the Bm7runway is clearEm7  
Shit, music business movin' too Am7fast for me (God damn)
Wishin' I still had Bm7Mac wit' me (Yes Lord!)Em7  
How do you tell a nigga Am7slow it down
when you livin' just as Bm7fast as 'em?
I couldn't Em7understand when I seen 'em Am7stretched out cold on the pavement
Niggas catch Bm7T-K-O's on ocEm7casion
Wishin' I could Am7save 'em, what was I to say?
I was doin' Bm7dates, dippin' in and out of Em7state
We was goinAm7' in to get away
Sick of feelin' Bm7so outta Em7place
Wishin' I could Am7save ya, what was I to say?
Wishin' I could Bm7save ya, but now it's too Em7late
Now, is this Am7really what I wanted?
Is it really worth the pain?
Now am I Bm7really an asshole? Fuck what Em7you say
Don't do me no Am7favors, let's get back to basics
We live for toBm7day, bitch, fuck up out my Em7way, bitch
I'm losin' all my Am7aces, I'm runnin' outta patience
Got some pretty Bm7faces knowin' what my Em7name is
Up in high Am7places, I got some new neighbors
They don't really Bm7say shit but when they see the Em7spaceship
They just think I Am7rap or some form of entertainment
But they don't know I'm Bm7black, young, gifted and aEm7mazin'
[Chorus]
You know I had tAm7o close my eyesBm7  Em7  
And if I have tAm7o free my mindBm7  Em7  
I may not have the Am7lane, movin' all along
Knowin' that I Bm7can't do it on my Em7own
And if I got the Am7pain feelin' comin' out
Have to run aBm7way, think I'm goin' Em7home
[Verse 2]
Yeah, you know I'm workin' on a Am7world premiere
And I could see the Bm7world from hereEm7  
I know you somewhere in the Am7atmosphere
I know someday I'll meet you Bm7halfway there (Cheers)Em7  
They say there's nothin' you can Am7do about it
Can't say that I'm new to sorrow
Wishin' I could Bm7take your problems
Trade 'em for a Em7little more time wit'chu
Carry you Am7out the bottom, the weight of the world, I got it
Sprouted wit'chu Bm7on my shoulder, the greatest hEm7onor to know ya
I'd gotta be Am7honest wit'cha, I hate you ain't in the picture
I hate all them Bm7fake niggas claimin' like they gon' Em7really miss ya
I know there's no Am7one to blame and maybe the point that I'm missin'
But I nBm7eeded a minute, just gEm7ive me a minute
[Chorus]
You know I had tAm7o close my eyesBm7  Em7  
And if I have tAm7o free my mindBm7  Em7  
I may not have the Am7lane, movin' all along
Knowin' that I Bm7can't do it on my Em7own
And if I got the Am7pain feelin' comin' out
Have to run aBm7way, think I'm goin' Em7home
