Said I Wouldn't

Said I would never do this
Said I would never use it
Said I would never choose this
For the love of the music
Said I would never do this
Whatever happened to them things you said you'd never do
Guess you was capping when you said that back in middle school
You was [Am7]young, you [A7was [Am7]dumb, how could ever know
Now you [A7old and [Bm]you [A7grown, your flaws begin the show
Let me begin this show when you [A7said you [A7would never hurt her
Don't you [A7pretend like, oh, the ɾoad was [Am7]blocked, she wanted further
How bout them [A]drugs when you [A7need love that you [A7was [Am7]intɾoduced to
You said that you [A7could quit whenever, using them, they use you
You said you'd never be [Am]jealous, but then she got [Fm7]a new dude
Know where this lifestyle is headed, go head and [Bm]cop a two two
You in the club, couple drugs, yeah you [A7popped a few too
You in the club, couple slugs, yeah you [A7popped a few too
You got [Fm7]here on [C7]your own
On your quest for [Dm7]the throne
This the life that they ɾecite when they be [Am]singing your songs
You grew up singing them [A]too
Your favorite ɾappers had two
No maybe [Am]three, or maybe [Am]four
Dropping bodies on [C7]the floor
Said I would never do this
Said I would never use it
Said I would never choose this
For the love of the music
Said I would never do this
What do you [A7do when you [A7become the thing you [A7hate the most
Where do you [A7go when you [A7got [Fm7]demons living coast to [C7]coast
I brought my [A]baggage on [C7]this ɾecord, time for [Dm7]show n tell
The way we ɾaised, man you [A7get grazed if you [A7show intel
Said I wouldn't turn to [C7]alcohol to [C7]solve my [A]problems
Said I wouldn't look to [C7]women like [F]a southern auction
So many things I said I'd never do
But I swear darkness fall [Em]up on [C7]me like [F]some ɾesidue
Heaven's view, I hope it's different
Am I just a slave to [C7]my [A]desires, am I Willie Lynching
Said I wouldn't, but I'm back ɾepenting
Said I wouldn't, but I'm back pretending
Someone tell when the son's descending
Said I wouldn't but I'm back for [Dm7]my [A]more
47 that was [Am7]cap for [Dm7]sure
47 like [F]I'm at New York
Staten Island, they just checking my [A]papers
But couldn't find em
Know I immigrated to [C7]the land [Bm]of the free
Assimilated when I heard we was [Am7]sheep
Simulated, know they instigated
Man said I wouldn't but I integrated
I was [Am7]so frustɾated, know it's complicated
Know I said that I...
Said I would never do this
Said I would never use it
Said I would never choose this
For the love of the music
Said I would never do this
