[Dm] [C] Uh, [Bb] yeah, [C] yeah, uh
I had this [Dm] little bad thing, something like them tens
Gave a [C] nigga mad brains, something like the Wiz
But you [Bb] see the sad thing, fucking with it is
Is the chick ain't [C] even had brains, dummy like a bitch
So I tried to [Dm] show her about the world and about just who we really [C] are
And where we've come and how we still have to go really [Bb] far
Like baby look at how we live broke on the [C] boulevard
But all she ever want me to do is unhook her [Dm] bra
Then all I really want is for her to go down [C] low
Before you know it she wet enough to get ground [Bb] slow
And all that deep shit I was previously down [C] for
Replaced by freak shit I am currently down [Dm] for
You see I peaked at pussiest power
That [Am] proud feeling we get knowing [C] that pussy is ours
And [Bb] how it feels to feel that feeling
You feeling when you be [C] drilling that shit
Got her saying you be killing that [Dm] shit
And all the pain the world cause she be healing that [C] shit
And no that ain't your girl dawg but you be feeling that [Bb] shit
And you just wanna tell her everything she might need
[C] But in the meantime it's lights please, lights [Dm] please, lights please
Turn off the lights [C] for now everything just seems so right
[Bb] How you make the darkness seem so right
[C] Feeling like things gon' be alright
[Dm] Lights please, lights please, turn off the lights
[C] For now everything just seems so right
[Bb] How you make the darkness seem so right
[C] Feeling like things gon' be alright
[Dm] Now we in the hotel mirrors on the ceiling
She say she [C] wanna glow else I hear her and I'm willing
But every [Bb] time I smoke well a nigga mind gone
So that every [C] word I spoke well I'm tryna put her on
But she couldn't [Dm] hear me
I told her all about how we been living a [C] lie
And that they love to see us all go to print then to [Bb] die
Like baby look at how they show us on the TV [C] screen
But all she ever want me to do is unzip her [Dm] jeans
And all I really want is for her to get on [C] top
Before you know it she working jerking it [Bb] nonstop
And all that next shit I was previously [C] talking
Is now that wet shit that I'm currently lost [Dm] in
And while that sweat drip I am reminded
All [C] the times my brother told me that pussy is blinding
I'm [Bb] finding the more I grow the more y'all seem to stay the same
[C] Don't even know the rules but yet y'all tryna play the game
And [Dm] ain't it shameful how niggas blame hoes for giving birth
[C] To a baby that took two to make
Coward nigga you a [Bb] fake
How you gon' look in your son's face and turn your back
[C] Then go start another family dog
What type of shit is that she [Dm] said it's okay
Rubbed my head and told me to relax
[C] Lay the nigga down proper like she was recording tracks
[Bb] Said I know you wanna change the world but for tonight please
[C] Just reach over and hit the lights please
Lights [Dm] please, lights please, turn off the lights
[C] For now everything just seems so right
[Bb] How you made the darkness seem so right
[Am] Feeling like things gon' be alright
[Dm] Lights please, lights please, turn off the lights
[C] For now everything just seems so right
[Bb] How you made the darkness seem so right
[C] Feeling like things gon' be alright
[Dm] Lights please, [C] lights please,
[Bb] turn [C] off the lights
[Dm] Lights please, yeah
Alright, [C]
[Bb] [C]
[Dm] [C]
if y'all niggas heard the first one, the come up and shit
Then you would've heard part one of this joint right here
It's dead presidents, you know classic nigga
That's classic Jay shit
So I did it, [F] threw it on the first mixtape
We let niggas, it's about a year ago
We let niggas hear like, you know the mixtape or whatever
And there's always this one nigga that stuck out to me
Like a year ago, this nigga's like yo
Like I thought I did my thing on this shit
Those were like two of my favorite verses that I did
But he's just like yo, like yo you didn't come right man
If you gon' come on dead presidents son
You gotta come hard son, you gotta come harder than that son
You gotta come harder than that
I was like man what you mean I came hard
But that shit always stuck in my mind
So doing this next, you know doing a warm up
I was like damn I gotta get on it again, I gotta do it again
Just almost like, just to prove
I had this [Dm] little bad thing, something like them tens
Gave a [C] nigga mad brains, something like the Wiz
But you [Bb] see the sad thing, fucking with it is
