Beat Street
The king of the beat
Bb
C
You see him rocking that beat from

Beat Street is a lesson too,

Verse 3
C
Cm
Well a pic ture can express a thousand word
Bb
C
s to describe all the beauty of life you give
Cm
C
Cm
And if the world was yours to do over,
Ab
I know you'd paint a better place to live
Cm
Where the colours would swirl and the boys
Bb
Cm
and girls can grow in peace and harmony
Ab
C
And where murals stand on walls so grand
Ab
as far as the eyes are able to see, Ha!
Cm
C
Am
I never knew art til I saw your face and there'll
C
Cm
never be one to take your place
C
Cm
C
'Cause each and every time
you touch the spray paint can
Ab
C
Michelangelo's soul controls your hand
Am
Cm
Then serenades of blue and red and the
Bb
Cm
beauty of the rainbow fills your head
C
Bb
Cm
Crescendo of colours hang in tune,
Man why oh why d'ya have to die so soon?
Bb
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust,
Cm
where the good die young it's all thy must
C
'Cause as life must live,
death must die and the tear shall fall from the living eye, Huh!
Cm
Bb
The teardrops fall for the state of mind
Cm
of the beautiful lady that you left behind
C
In love and alone, but now you're dead,
and she still can't get you out of her head, Huh!
Cm
C
More tears fall for all you've done,
Cm
trying to be a good father to your only son
C
But now who's gonna make sure that he's fed,
C
Cm
put a shirt on his back and a roof overhead?
Bb
Tell me who's gonna dream the impossible dream
C
Cm
of the beautiful cities in the islands genes?
C
F
Bb
Cm
When your works of art brought into being all
Ab
Cm
C
that the ghetto stopped you from seeing
Cm
Bb
Bums on the sidewalk, garbage in the streets,
C
Cm
abandoned buildings, bricks of concrete
F
Cm
The ladies on the corner are selling their bodies,
and everybody wants a part in that party
Bb
I'm hanging out tough, rocking late at night,
Cm
running wild in the town of the neon light
F
Cm
You either play some ball or
Bb
stand in the hall Huh!
Cm
You gotta make something
outta nothing at all
Bb
I'm sitting in the classroom learning the rules and it says
Cm
you can't do graffiti in school
C
They can't be wrong in the hallowed hall,
Bb
Cm
so my notebook turned into a brick wall
C
The heart of a lion and the courage of three,
Bb
Cm
and the mind of a man much wiser than me
C
You're the soul of the brother
who won't come back
Bb
Who died in my arms on the
'Cause I'm caught in the rat race,
looking for my own space
Bb
Cm
There's gotta be a better
place for you and me
There's pie in the sky,
and an eye for an eye
Some people gotta die just to be free
You search for justice
Bb
and what do you find?
the unemployment line
F
Cm
You find just us sweating
from dawn to dusk
Bb
Cm
There's no justice,
there's Huh, just us, Ha!
Still life urban masterpiece,
Bb
Cm
your trademark was written on trains and walls
A million dollar gift only God released,
Bb
Cm
and yet you got killed for nothing at all
Bb
So after this there'll be no more hard times,
Cm
no more bad times and no more pain
Am
No more chump change, none of that bull
Cm
museums and the hall of fame
Bb
So all you Hip Hops get on up , and let's
Cm
take it to the top where we belong
C
'Cause the age of the Beat
Street wave is here
Cm
Everybody let's sing along, now c'mon,
Bb
Cm
say 'Ho!' ('Ho!'), Say 'Ho!' ('Ho!')
And to let me know I'm rocking the microphone everybody
say 'Ramo!' ('Ramo!')
'Ramo!' ('Ramo!')
Raah!
Verse 4
Cm
Bb
A newspaper burns in the sand,
Cm
Ab
and the headlines say 'Man destroys Man!'
C
Ab
Cm
C
Extra! Extra! Read all the bad news on the war
Bb
Am
for peace that everybody would lose
Cm
The rise and fall, the last great empire,
Bb
Cm
the sound of the whole world caught on fire
the desperate gamble
Ab
The game that left the whole
The cheats, the lies, the alibis
Bb
Cm
And the foolish attempt to
conquer the skies
Ab
Cm
Ab
Lost in space, and what is it worth, huh?
Cm
The president just forgot
about Earth
Spending multi billions,
and maybe even trillions
Bb
Cm
The cost of weapons ran
into zillions
There's gold in the street,
and diamonds under feet
Bb
Cm
And the children in Africa don't even eat
Flies on their faces,
they're living like mice
Bb
Cm
And the houses even make
the ghetto look nice, Huh!
The water tastes funny,
it's forever too sunny
Bb
Cm
And they work all month and
don't make no money
A fight for power, a nuclear shower
Bb
Cm
And people shout out in the darkest hour
Cm
Of sights unseen and voices unheard
And finally the bomb get
Christians killed Muslims,
Bb
and Germans killed Jews
Cm
And everybody's bodies are used and abused,
Huh!
F
Cm
Minds are poisoned and souls are polluted
C
Cm
Superiority complex is deep rooted
Leeches and lice's, and people
C
Bb
got prices
Cm
Egomaniacs control the
self- righteous
Nothing is sacred and nothing is pure
Ab
Cm
So the revelation of death is our cure
Hitler and Caesar, Custer and Reagan
Bb
Cm
Napoleon, Castro,
Mussolini and Begin
Ghengis Khan and the Shah of Iran
Ab
Mixed with the blood of the weaker man
Cm
The peoples in terror,
Bb
the leaders made the error
Cm
And now they can't even
look in the mirror
'Cause we gotta suffer
Bb
while things get rougher
Cm
And that's the reason why
we got to get tougher
To learn from the past
and work for the future
Bb
Cm
And don't be a slave to no computer
'Cause the Children of
Man inherits the land
Bb
And the fu ture of the
Cm
world is in your hands
So just throw your hands in the air
Bb
Cm
And wave 'em like you just don't care
And if you believe that
you're the future
Cm
Scream it out and say 'Oh
yeah!' ('Oh yeah!')
Bb
Cm
Ab
Cm
Ab
'Oh yeah!' ('Oh
