They wanna say there's a war outside and a bomb in the street
      Dm
And a gun in the hood and a mob of police
      Am
And a rock on the corner and a line full of fiends
      Dm
And a bottle full of lean and a model on a scheme, yup
Am                       Dm
These days of frustration keep y'all on ducking rotation
Am                     Dm
I duck these gold faces, post up fee-fi-fo-fum basis
F
Dreams of realities peace
G
Blow steam in the face of the beast
F
The sky can fall down, the wind can cry now
E
The strong in me, I still smile

          Am
I went to war last night
        D/F#
With an automatic weapon, don't nobody call a medic
     
I'm a do it 'til I get it right
          Am
I went to war last night
         D/F#
I've been dealing with depression ever since an adolescent

Duckin' every other blessin', l can never see the message
      Am
I can never take the lead, I can never bob and weave
 
For my nigga that be letting 'em annihilate me
       D/F#
And the sound is moving in a meteor speed

From a 100 to a billion lay my body in the street
        Am
Keep my money in the ceiling let my mama know I'm free

Give my story to the children and the lesson they can read
        D/F#
And the glory to the feeling of the only unseen
                                                   Am
Seen enough, make a motherfucker scream, "I love myself!"


                       D/F#
I lost my head, I must've misread what the good book said
     Am
Oh woes keep me, it's a jungle inside
    D/F#
Give myself again 'til the well runs dry

Outro chords: Am G D/F# F ...
