for what they can't be
C
Black and brown around the clock,
Am
Dm
I can't stop that I'm still scared
How we get here,

Gm
Is black ma gic pulling hair
right out the top hat?

At the 4 year thing it was
due for the dollar

Now I sweater them words any day
Gm
to a page like I acetate it
Am
2014 we'll jump back 3 years
F
I'm a thuggy on the tough tracks
Am
Steal it like a nigga, never hit a rough patch
My grandma left me, hit me,

To get my stuff back,
F
Am
try to get the light block
Dm
Am
Fuck that, now I'm in the mirror,
seein' me in light
Dm

Dif ferent, ain't perfect,

When I get hit, the high top clip,
I had a high top

And when I make my moves,
Am
F
it's like I gotta make two

Now I'm satisfied seeing
I'm enough
Bb
Satisfied thinking I got enough
