[Verse 1]
Two tears in the bucket, I Em11cry with you
But Am7I could never Bm7lie with youCmaj9
I could never Em11afford not to afford
I could never put myAm7 plans to the Bm7side with yoCmaj9u
I could never see a red lightAm9
Like a deer with a headlight
I freezeC6/D up when I re-up
See, I barely have Em11patience, and you're relating
OAm7nly the mBm7oment to comCmaj9plete us
Why you hate to work Em11for it? Am7Went to worBm7k for itCmaj9
See a nine to five was so Em11jive turkey
But when Thanksgiving Am7came, that Bm7check diCmaj9dn’t hurt me
You plead the fifth, I rAm9ead the fifth amendment
We both crimC6/Dinals with bad intentions
They say time hEm11eals all
But if I can shor

Oh, the Cmaj9anticipation, hGmaj9oping you could make it
WAmaj7/Bomen don't prosper, chaC#m7/F#sin' education
Cmaj9But you're talented,Gmaj9 and can't handle it
Amaj7/BAnd your homegirls cC#m7/F#an't be your manager
Cmaj9365 times fGmaj9our, plus more
Amaj7/BCan't get it right, tell me, C#m7/F#do you got the stamina?
Cmaj9But ain't no moGmaj9ney like fast money
Amaj7/BEven today, I'm conC#m7/F#sidered a crash dummy
A Cmaj9rapper chasing sGmaj9tardom, how can I fast Amaj7/Bforward
My accolades better than all them?
[Hook]

Then he looked me in the eye, and said "Homie, you're messed up
N.C
Why?”You’re Cmaj9banking on good luck, yGmaj9ou wishing for miracles
Amaj7/BNever been through shit, you’reC#m7/F# crying hysterical
You sCmaj9ettle for everything, comGmaj9plain about everything
You sAmaj7/Bay you sold crack, myC#m7/F# world amphetamine
Your prCmaj9ojects ain’t it, I live in a hut
I'm lAmaj7/Biving to keep warm, I'm C#m7/F#living to pay rent
I pCmaj9aid my way through, Gmaj9praying to Allah
YouAmaj7/B played your way through, dinner with wi-fi
Am9Bullshitting yourself, you talking tD/Eo strangers
Amaj7/BSame thing goes for the oC#m7/F#nes you came with
We Am9all came on the boat looking for D/Ehope
And Amaj7/Ball you can say is that you’re looking foC#m7/F#r dope
Am9These days ain’t no compromise
Amaj7/BYour pain ain’t mines half the time
A Am9brand new excuse ain’t nothing to me
See, I Amaj7/Bmade my moves, with shackled feet"
