2nd Verse (The chords are the same throughout the whole song):
For even in hell, I still have faith
To one day be free with my father at the gates
But make no mistakes, I’ll show you what time takes
To be a success on earth, mixed with all the hate
I stand on my pivot, my life you cannot live it
For the things that I’ve seen have been too damn explicit
But soon you will get it on a CD with some credits
I provide my grind, mixed with no edits
They say they don’t want me when I’m fucked up and forgotten
Until I rise up amongst the evils tryin’ to stop ‘em
Slow down bitch, my money is what I’m clockin’
I’m tick-tockin’
Once I start, I ain’t stoppin'
Such bullshit that my soul deal wit
When my room’s dim lit
I pray to God help wit
(Uh) my endeavors and any kind of weather
Hoes be pleather fake, so I erase ‘em out my sim
Now do you want to be him?
Think twice, you'll commit suicide tryna read my mind
Now do you want to be him?
Think twice, you'll commit suicide tryna read my mind
Down and out
Hey, down and out out
Down and out, so I’m out and down and lookin’ for a substance to drown in (hey)
