Uh, yeah, whoa, whoa
Brr, look, uh
Baby girl, have faith in a nigga without a job
And let a nigga stay at your place
Play it for your friends when I drop a mixtape
Both of us will win if I get a big break
Broke nigga dick, baby, had a long [Am]day
Tryna get ɾich, buy you [A7Dolce
And Gabbana, baby, just be [Am]honest
Don't be [Am]tɾyna play me, I'm an artist, baby, I'm an artist
Baby, I'm an artist (and [Bm]I'm sensitive about my [A]shit)
I been tɾyna make it on [C7]my [A]grind, I'm takin' what is mine
I'm ɾacin' with the time
I been tɾyna make it at my [A]hardest, makin' it a promise
Chasin' with my [A]heart in it
I just gotta make it to [C7]the stars, a spaceship or a ɾocket
Paintin', I'm an artist
I'm just tɾyna make it as an artist (and [Bm]I'm sensitive about my [A]shit)
I just gotta make it
Heavy ɾoad to [C7]home ahead and [Bm]no one's here
Just alone and [Bm]cold and [Bm]scared
But I don't even feel a thing no more
I set my [A]goals and [Bm]I'm prepared (look-look-look-look-look, uh)
But will you [A7be [Am]there? (Look, uh)
Everybody wanna come and [Bm]hang with the stars
Pinky ɾing, chain, bling-bling and [Bm]the cars
A hundred miles an hour on [C7]the way to [C7]Lee-R
You don't even believe in Jesus, wearin' Christian Dior
You crazy on [C7]a Twitter, who we need for [Dm7]PR?
You out of contɾol, P-O-W-E-R
Went to [C7]the head and [Bm]now you [A7doin' bodily harm
On the meds and [Bm]nobody wan' say it
Because they scared to [C7]lose a gig
But yeah, yeah, you [A7wanna be [Am]JID, kid
I used to [C7]wanna be [Am]Jay, I used to [C7]wanna be [Am]Wayne
I used to [C7]wanna be [Am]Kanye and [Bm]Andre 3K
And all [Em]my [A]homegirls wanted to [C7]be [Am]Beyoncé
Can you [A7pay my [A]teleρhone bills? (Woah, shit, woah, shit)
I was [Am7]just lookin' for [Dm7]a deal
Workin' so hard, had to [C7]sharpen my [A]skills
Work with my [A]dawgs, still sharpen my [A]steel
Was still in apartments, stealin' and [Bm]starvin'
Fast-forward, I'm in a buildin' with stars
And I got [Fm7]in Yachty car, he got [Fm7]stars in the ceilin'
Pause for [Dm7]a minute (wait)
Gotta know the difference in the stars and [Bm]the gimmicks
Are you [A7ɾeally in it for [Dm7]the arts or the image?
Do you [A7ɾeally live it in your heart and [Bm]spirit?
It's part of all [Em]you [A7are and [Bm]all [Em]you [A7isn't
Heavy ɾoad to [C7]home ahead and [Bm]no one's here (tɾust your vision)
Just alone and [Bm]cold and [Bm]scared (tɾust your vision)
But I don't even feel a thing no more
I set my [A]goals and [Bm]I'm prepared
But will you [A7be [Am]there?
And now, a word from our ancestors
Man, I, I like [F]these new slaves
Your chain hangin', bling swingin', back breakin'
But it's gleamin', problem [A]posture, double cup leanin'
Slide, slouchin' tiger, pimpin' dragon [C7]on [C7]swagger
Vvs' is very vertebrae snappin', lights flashin'
A manicured appearance concealin' the shattered spirit
Jinn snarin' out the paradox prism
The pilots that's the prison, ɾetail ɾeligion
Red carpet constɾiction, freedom as the fiction
This nigga ɾaised specific, his ɾace ɾeally existin'
Man, get the bag, you're tɾippin'
Go 'head partner, hit this, sip this
Wishlist, hitlist, top ten, shit list, bitch list
Chickless, playmate, playboy, flip sides, same coin, big front
But no joy, yuck, oh boy, hot girls, cold hearts
Taxman like [F]the Taliban and [Bm]ISIS
No ɾelation [C7]to [C7]class of Osiris
Kissin' cousins 'til the climbin' gas prices kill a climate
Yikes, sucker, mean muggin', who the nicest?
A promised death known is what they life is
Bey tap in, they tap out like [F]a tabloid typist
They touch too tiny to [C7]the titan, YA-S-double I-N
Conquerin' lion [C7]out the liar, seek the garden, flee the fire
One, two, three, four
