My mama always told me it was gonna be days
[F#] [A] [F#m]
[F#] [A] [F#m]
[F#] [A] [F#m]
[A] [Em]
[F#m] [A] [F#m]
[A] like [F#m]
[A] [F#m] this
My mother asked me everyday are you still begging
I lie and tell her no [A] but her heart knows I ain't changed
And I hate to [F#m] see her cry I wipe the tears from her eyes
And try to tell her everything [A] is gonna be alright
[F#m] I hug her tightly [Em] as I leave it bothers me
[F#m] But for now I gotta go [A] cause the streets are calling me
My [F#m] mother prays that I quit the life I lead
Damn I try to change my ways [A] but these streets are calling me
[G#] And I'd love to [F#m] dance but at this time I'm a soldier
I gotta put in work like [A] rivals know they can't get over
My [F#m] mother prays that I quit the life I lead
Damn I try to change my ways [A] but these streets are calling me
[F#m] And I'd love to dance but at this time I'm a soldier
I gotta put in work like [B] rivals know they [A] can't get over
[F#m] I'm a y'all confluent soldier taking chances
Along with all my homeboys [A] up in drug induced trances
[F#m] Evil dances through our fathers we plot
Different strategies to kill our [A] enemies and not get caught
Since my homie got shot in the spine he's been paralyzed
[F#] I see nothing but deep [A] despair when I stare into his eyes
[F#m] I feel my anger rise since I think about his character
[F#] He never hurt nobody just [A] a homeboy that was there for ya
[F#m] The streets are really fair and that's a hard lesson learned
But you realize quick enough after [A] a few times getting burned
[F#m] The streets are cold, bits of love are mostly greed is all they hold
You in my way I'll burn a load [A] and make your head explode
Now [F#m] what?
My motto living in [Em] the bottle
Hit the throttle if [F#m] this shit starts to get too thick
[A] Break out the Fuliato
[G#] My mother prays that [Em] I quit the life I lead
[F#m] Damn I try to change my ways but [A] these streets are calling me
And [F#m] I'd love to dance but at [Em] this time I'm a soldier
[F#m] I gotta put in work like [A] rivals know they can't get over
[F#m] My mother prays that [Em] I quit the life I lead
Damn [F#m] I try to change my ways but [A] these streets are calling me
And [F#m] I'd love to dance but at [Em] this time I'm a soldier
[F#m] I gotta put in work like [A] rivals know they can't get over
[G#] Goddamn I'm greasy no more khakis put my nikes on
[F#] I hear my homeboys outside [Dm] hawking the one I guess [F#m] tonight's on
Grab the tray snubby give [Em] my moms a kiss goodbye
As [F#m] I hop into the ride she prays [A] that I come home alive
I [F#m] can't justify my life because [Em] I know I'm living wrong
What [F#m] the fuck do you expect me to [A] do when the funk is on?
Try [F#m] to get along with my [Em] rivals fool you must be joking
What you [F#m] smoking?
Hollow tips and pistol [A] clips is what I got but bones [F#m] approaching
I'm trying to get [Em] ahead spitting holla at [F#m] these rivals wrapped up
In [A] this life of begging got me [F#m] homicidal better check my bottle [Em] signs
Since I'm living [F#m] half dead violent thoughts got [A] my brain washed
Fucking with [F#m] my head quaker sweating in [Em] my bed
Through the nightmares got my [F#m] body tensed but still
I'm [A] prepared to die for this so called [F#m] nonsense
Cause everything is [Em] fucked up the whole world is [F#m] corrupt
I'm never switched up on [A] my homies so consider me [F#m] stuck
Fuck I [Em] ain't tripping though yeah my money [F#m] sitting low
But still I got [B] enough to get a borrow after [F#m] liquor store and clothes on
My [Em] back puts a gap for these [F#m] rivals are my [A] only necessities
[F#m] My mother prays and I [Em] quit the life I lead
Damn I [F#m] try to change my ways but these [E] streets are calling me
And [F#m] I love her to death but at [Em] the same time I'm a soldier
I [F#m] gotta put in work let rivals [A] know they can't get over
[F#m] My mother prays and I [Em] quit the life I lead
Damn I [F#m] try to change my ways but these [E] streets are calling me
And I [D] love her to death but at the [Em] same time I'm a soldier
I [F#m] gotta put in work let rivals [A] know they can't get over
[F#m] My mother prays and I [Em] quit the life I lead
