Tonart: F# minor
Verse 1
B
They say the state of your environment,
C#
B
coupled with defiance of societal requirements is what
Em
B
creates violence.
C
B
D
That and repetition of pimping, shooting,
B
and looting, and media transmission, in addition
to the negligence of parents due
to lots of broken homes.

B
Bitterness and broken dreams lead to brittle,
Em
B
broken bones, so little kids roam the streets
like wild -eyed prey,
continuing the cycle of decay.
Every day a vital image of
Em
B
a foolish imitation
C
B
Is impressioned on the person
and becomes an aspiration
They want to acquire the chain
the fool had on the flyer
C
B
They want guns, girls, rings,
cars, whims, tires
They want heroes but they got liars
Those who focus only on material desires
And will do whatever necessary to acquire
A hot spot on a skewer
roasting in eternal fire
So are these young ones the collective
sums of the slums they inhabit?
Inhibited by violence that
D
borders on pornographic?
Or is it that the truth has been
slightly fabricated?
Borrowed by every rapper,
twisted and exaggerated
Em
Now it's incorporated in their bio
D
Em
Shot five times by a wino on the way to
B
sell crack for their auntie's pimp
Now that's the backstory for
that well -rehearsed blimp
As long as it sells,
that's the story they'll continue to tell
And these fools keep lying,
cause you fools keep buying
D
What's defined as a dream
for a young black teen
Big stacks of green sacks
by the truthful being
Em
Just generations away
from being slaves
D
Yeah, this is how you chigga -boo
B
Shucking and jiving, bug -eyed grinning
With your ancestors spinning like
gyroscopes in their graves
B

There's really something that's
