Tonart: E minor
Verse 1
Bm
Em
runs deeper than blood
Bm
Sometimes karma comes back
on the people you love
Em
Sometimes we gotta let go and turn
the other way
We just fightin' for another day
C
Cause everything has a cause,
you might not like the effect
Bm
A heart full of pain and a life of regrets
Em
Forced to make certain choices
that you might not respect
In this world full of hate, just a child
of neglect
C

Verse 2
C
He was breathin' in cigarrette smoke,
Loud yells comin' from
Landlord bangin' on the door askin' where
the fuckin' rent at cause it's 30 days
C
Overdue
Nobody answers it
Bm
They was smokin' up the house like they
ain't know that shit was cancerous
Em
But his mom still tryna quit
She ain't got no one to depend on
Bm
to provide for her kids
Barely makin' enough to fill his stom
Bm
ach, It's still filled with nothing
Hard times,
Em
she can feel 'em coming
And it's been that while for a while
She raisin' a fatherless child,
see the pain in her smile
C
She got unpaid bills piling up on the counter
Bm
No mat ter how close to the edge she got
there was somethin' about her
Em
And never let her lose hope
Even when she hit rock bottom,
she feels the noose around her neck
It's just a loose rope
C
But it's only getting tighter,
suffocating her slowly
Bm
She's a lover and a fighter,
but something just keeps her lonely
Em
She got a collect call but she already
know who it's from
She took a deep breath,
answered the phone and begun
C
She said I gotta move on with my life,
I told you it's done
Bm
Plus it's been two months since
you spoke to your son
Em
It's not about me and it's not
about you anymore
It's not about running the streets
actin' a fool anymore
there's nothing you can do anymore
Bm
Cause I lost everything I just can't bear
You see, there's somebody else
Not because I'm in love,
but cause I needed some help
C
The type of help you can't provide
I'm sick of waiting
Bm
I'm sick of sittin' around
knowing you might not make it out alive
Em
Sick of not havin' someone
by my side
Sick of our kids askin
where's their daddy
C
I'm sick of tellin' them these lies
I'm just sick of it all
Bm
And if you ever make parole and have plans for the future,
please don't get us involved
Don't write
And most of all
Leave my child alone
Verse 3
Em
And before he could say a word All
C
he heard was a dial tone
Bm
Em
Verse 4
Em
C
As his mother put down the phone
he heard her saying
"God, I need you right now,
Bm
please just show me a sign, my heart is bleeding
Right now"
Em
But he was only a kid,
so he really didn't know much
Still tryna understand why his
mother cried so much
C
Father's Day was the worst
Plus they ain't have no money in the bank,
Bm
so it felt like every holiday was a curse
Em
And his birthday just passed
He's getting ready for
a lonely Christmas
They say his dad's gone for
business
C
But he knows the difference
Starting to forget his father's
face and what he looked like
Bm
No bedtime stories, no good mornings,
no good night
Em
Just a good luck from the judge,
his life was changed with a sentence
Slam the gavel down,
he's found guilty of all the offenses
C
On the other side of the fence,
left his child defenseless
Verse 5
Bm
Now he fends for himself,
but he feels so relentless
Em
His momma's boyfriend drinks
until his demons come out
The liquor takes control of his soul, he
don't speak with his mouth
Verse 6
Em
He speaks with his fist,
C
disagree get beat till you piss
Bm
The type of pain that make you put a knife deep in your

Verse 7
Em
Sometimes the choices you make,
they don't only affect you
C
But they also affect the people you love
Bm
and care about
Em
You see, I wish I could say it's
never too late
But I would only be lying to you
C
Because time, and the people we love,
Bm
Em
are the only two things we can never get back in this world
