I get my [G]pregnant. I'm gonna be a
better you prophecies
that [C]I made way back in [Am]the veil
Fulfilled listen even [Em]back when
we was broke my team
L Mar[G]tin Luther King

No role [C]models and I'm here right [Am]now

Last night I was gettin' my feet rubbed
By the bad[C]dest people
Not Trina, but I swear to God
[Am]Is make you, make you call
your girl up and tell her
Hey, what's good?
Sorry [Em]I'm never comin' home,
I'ma stay for good
[G]Then hang the phone up
[C]an d proceed to later wood
I came fast like 911 in white
[Am]neighborhoods
Ain't got no shame about it
She think I'm [Em]spoiled and I'm rich
Cause I can't have any,
[G]and he got defensive and said nah,
I was the same without it
But then [C]I thought back,
back to a better me
[Am]Before I was a B -list celebrity
Before I started [Em]calling,
calling 50 so heavily
[G]Back when you could get a
platinum [C]plaque
without no melody
You wasn't sweating me
One time for my L .A. [Am]sisters
One time for my L .A.,
L [Em].A. Lazy and can't tell the [G]difference
One time for a n***a who knows
Don't [C]save her,

Don't save her,
she don't wanna be saved
Don't [Em]save her,
she don't want to be [G]saved
Don't save her, she don't want to be saved
I want [C]a real love,
dark -skinned and an[Am]t -viv love
That jaded and that weird love
That [Em]leave a toothbrush at your crib, [G]love
And you ain't gotta wonder
[Am]whether that's your [C]kid, love
I don't want no b****
from reality shows
[Am]Out of touch with reality
Out in [Em]Hollywood bringing back five or six
[G]Six b******,
then we kick them to the door
You know, you know how it [C]goes
She deserve that, she a bird,
[Am]it's a bird trap
You think if I didn't rap,
she would flirt back
[Em]Tak in' off her skirt,
let her wear my shirt be[G]fore she leave
I'ma [C]need my shirt [Em]back
You [C]know how it go
One time for my L .A. [Am]sisters
One time for my L .A.,
L [Em].A. Lazy and can't tell the [G]difference
One time for a n***a who knows
Don't [C]save her
She don't wanna be [Am]saved
Don't save her
She don't wanna be saved
Don't [Em]save her
She don't wanna be [G]saved
Don't save her
She don't wanna be saved
There's an [C]old saying in Tennessee
I know it's in Texas,
probably in [Am]Tennessee[C][Am]
[C]Fooled me one time, shame on you[Am]
Fooled me twice,

[Em]Fooled me three times, fuck [G]a peace sign,
lord the Chopper let it rain on you
[C]Fooled me one time, shame on [Am]you
Fooled me twice,
can't put the blame on you
[Em]Fooled me three times, the peace [G]sign,
Lord, the chopper, let it rain on you
My only [C]regret was too
young for Lisa Benet
[Am]My only regret was too
young for Nia Long
