--Intro--
Em
You say you a gangsta, that dont impress me none

--Verse 1--
Em
Yeah Im young, 21, living in a crazy world
But I know the difference between a man and a herb
C
You frontin like you got it, claim they hittin on your wallet
Gucci tellin you the time and you watch it,
Em
Now I aint stuntin like my daddy, hes livin with my grammie
Used to be a big baller, hes survivin off of gamblin
C
But I love him, hes my daddy, yeah I love him hes my daddy
Put him in a big house, before I ever see a grammy
Em
And my mommy started working days at the church
Finding faith in God cause the real world hurts
C
So much evil lurks, they just make us work
Am
But we cant find work
Em
Abuella, mommy and the girls, in a one bedroom
South beach lifestyle, they just paying for the view
C
Mommy on the couch, since she was 42
Sacrificing for the kids, cause thats what mommys do
Em
So I smoke my spliff, I spliff it hard
Candy says to stop, my voice is getting too harsh
C
So I sobered up, and my thoughts they rush
Am
And now I think of you behind bars
Em
Cross state lines, they spliffin good
In Miami you catch a charge
C Am
And the whole family tears apart
--Chorus--
Em
You say you a gangsta, that dont impress me none
Em
You say you a gangsta, aint seen a thing you done
C
I do it all on myself, I aint getting help

Em
And this recessions so depressin
My parents dont stop stressin
C

And Im paying for this session

And Im paying rent, food, clothes, phone, christmas presents
6 shots in, Im just countin all my blessings
C
No days off baby I aint restin
I told my sins, now Im done confessin

Em
On way to the top, I make with what I got
You want my number baby, Im on a mission, catch up
C
Men sellin love like thieves
Am
But when the girlie leaves, hell stop flirtin with me
Em
So I took my heart off my sleeve
Never trust a man cause they all hungry
C
Yeah they all hungry
Am
Never trust a man cause they all hungry
--Bridge--
Em
Right when you thought you had me
Baby you just lost someone
Em
Finally got over you, baby time to move on
C
Never learned your lesson, aint even gonna question
Am
Why it went so wrong
Em
Right when you thought you had me
Baby you just lost someone
Em
Finally got over you, baby time to move on
C
Never learned your lesson, aint even gonna question
Am
Why it went so wrong
