Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]I'm hollerin' [Dm]at your feminine[Em] side,
is it or isn't it genuine?
Let women decide,
[Dm]for men will ever judge from within this
Minute in time,
[Em]and the standard I'm held to is
From another planet,
I [Dm]landed here when mine fell through
Alienated by no [Em]paleontological ties
But never is this kid dis
[Dm]credited by the honorable
All rise, son – the [Em]sun presides,
the abominable
Find it comic[Dm]al I call my
shine beyond nominal, uh
My handle [Em]fine- tuned to channel 19
Address my living [Dm]letter
is better left unsigned
Though punctual, [Em]no wonder you're
some kind of comfortable
Stomach full of [Dm]lunch-
line chuck and junk food
Empty calories will [Em]soon catch up,
comments are
Covered in condiments,
son it [Dm]must have been my fat gene's dominant
Common repres[Em]ents the conjugate that
heaven sent to compliment
The veter[Dm]an's accomplishment,

[Verse 2]
the conscious honor it, but
[Dm]Whispers of them do us like we're disingenuous,
like
You only rock it for the paper
that's thrown
As if this is an end to my condition
of indigence
Nah, we holdin' stock in something
sacred as stone
So when victims of insolence
rise above the influence
I open the flock to those
who made it alone
It's the mission of men who just
write despite ignorance
Yo, with swollen pockets we gon'
take it back [F]home[Em]

[Verse 3]
SCRATCH [Em]HOOK:
This goes [Dm]out to all my [Em]people
in the city (repeated)
Where we don't get [Dm]caught
up in between with [Em]the nonsense
This goes [Dm]out to all my [Em]people in
the city (repeated)
Never worryin' about grief
[F]Define your

[Verse 4]
residence,
if [Em]these 4 walls simply shelter you from elements
I [Dm]recommend you get out more
Off base you face a [Em]down pour,
catch a taste of what the
Town's renowned [Dm]for,
these spates will drown y'all
Slick and pre[Em]cipitous,
I'm bloodied up, to the
City of Brotherly [Dm]Love, 206 is the antithesis
My toler[Em]ance is type ridiculous,
though I
Continuously seek for[Dm]giveness for
the shit I wished upon you
A disservice to [Em]mom dukes
– she raised me better
For her baby, set a [Dm]greater precedent to
gage and measure success
And I know [Em]she will never love me no less
But you sycophants are [Dm]sick,
ugly and grotesque
I'm amongst the mon[Em]strous
who breathe fire out the nostrils
Akin to conquer[Dm]ors you read
about in the gospels
Inhospitable [Em]are the Pontius,
Pilate the prefect
These Sea- dwellin' [Dm]fellas
aint accepted me yet

[Verse 5]
So [Dm]I stay on my biz and if
he play the periphery he
Control the block around the
space them cats own
I see this state of misery as
the greatest gift to me, yo
My golden op will be escapin' that drone
See I'm a late epiphany, uh,
away from mendicancy
I told 'em stop it, son
– don't wait for that loan
I heard [F]they say it's trickery,
[Dm]but we're makin' history
Yo, with swollen pockets we gon'
take it back [Dm]home[F][Em]

[Verse 6]
SCRATCH [Em]HOOK:
This goes [Dm]out to all my people
[Em]in the city (repeated)
Where we don't get caught
[Dm]up in between with the [Em]nonsense
This goes [Dm]out to all my [Em]people in
the city (repeated)
Never worry[Dm]in' about grief
