[Verse 1]
Smooth [C]it out
This [G]is a story [Am]about the drifter
Who waited through the worst
for the best [C]in crosstown
Who never [Am]planned on havin' so dick
Why me, [C]huh?
Everything's gonna [G]be [Am]alright

[Verse 2]
(alright)
Everything's gonna be al[F]right
[C](alright)
Everything's gonna [G]be al[Am]right
now (alright)
Everything's gonna be al
[C]right (alright)
Some get a little and [Bm]some get none [Am]Some catch

[Verse 3]
a bad one and
some leave the job half done
[C]I was one who never had
and [Am]al ways mad
Never knew my dad, mother fuck the fag
[C]Where anyway I didn't pic[G]k up,
flipped [Am]the clip up
Too many stick-ups,
'cause 'cause niggas had the [F]trigger hic-ups
[C]I I couldn't get a job,
nappy hair was [Am]not allowed
My mother couldn't afford
us, she had to throw me out
[C]I walked the strip,
with [G]this here clip, who [Am]wanna hit?
I had to eat, this money's good as spent
[C]I'm doin' braids,
I [B]wasn't [Am]paid enough
I kept 'em long 'cause
I couldn't afford a haircut
[C]I got laughed at,
I got chumped, I [Am]got dissed
I got upset, I got a tec and a banana clip
[C]Was down to throw the led to [G]any
[Am]tellin' crackhead
I'm still livin' broke,
so a lot of good it would've did
[C]Or done, if not for bad[B] luck, I
[Am]would have none
Why did I have to live a life
of such a bad one
[C]Why when I was a kid and
played I was a [Am]sad one
And always wanted to live like
this or that one

[Verse 4]
[C]Everything's gonna [G]be [Am]alright
(alright)
Everything's gonna be al[F]right
[C](alright)
Everything's gonna [G]be al[Am]right
now (alright)
Everything's gonna be
alright [F](alright)

[Verse 5]
A ghetto [C]bastard,
born next to the [G]projects
[Am]Livin' in the slums with bums,
I said now why treach
Why [C]do I have to be like this?
momma said I'm [G]priceless
[Am]So I am all worthless, starved,
that's just what being [C]nice gets
Sometimes I wish I could af[G]ford a pistol [Am]then,
though
To stop the hell,
I would've ended things a while ago
[C]I ain't have jack but a b[G]lack
hat and [Am]knapsack
Four squad stolen in cars in a black[F]jack
[C]Drop that,
and now you [G]want me [Am]to rap and give?
Say somethin' positive? well
positive ain't [F]where I lived
[C]I lived right around a
[G]corner [Am]from west hell
Two blocks from south shit,
it was in a jail [F]cell
[C]The sun never shone on
[G]my side of the [Am]street, see
And only once or twice
a week I would speak
[C]I walked alone,
my [G]state of mind was [Am]usually home
I couldn't keep a girl, they wanted
kids for cause of chrome
Some life,
if you ain't [C]wear gold your style was old
And you got more juice
than dope for every [Am]bottle sold
[C]Hell no, I say there's
gotta be a [Am]better way
[C]But hey, never gamble in that game that
you can't play
I'm slowin' and flowin' and goin'
in on [B]and knowin' not n[Am]ow
How will I do it, how will I make it? I won't,
that's [C]how[Bm][Am]
Why [C]me, huh?
Everything's gonna [G]be [Am]alright

[Verse 6]
(alright)
Everything's gonna be al[F]right
[C](alright)
Everything's gonna [G]be alright now
(alright)
[Am]Everything's gonna [F]be alright
[C][G][Am]
[F](alright)

[Verse 7]
My third [C]year into adulthood,
[G]and [Am]still a knucklehead
I'm better off dead, huh,
that's what my [C]neighbor said
I don't do jack but fightin',
[G]lightin' up the [Am]streets at night
Playin' hide and seek with a machete
seeking [C]freddy's wife
Some say I'm rollin' on,
[G]nothin' but a [Am]dog now
I answer that with a tech,
who wanna [F]bow-wow?
'cause [C]'cause I done been through
more shit [G]within the [Am]last week
Than a fly flowin' in doo-doo on
on the [C]concrete
I been a deadbeat,
dead [B]to the world and [Am]dead wrong
Since I was born that's my life,
oh you don't know this song?
[C]So don't say jack,
and [B]please don't say you [Am]understand
All that man to man talk can just walk down
[C]If you ain't live you could[G]n't feel
it, so [Am]kill it, skillet
And all that talk about it won't help it out,
[C]now will it?
And ill town fell like I [G]stuck-up props, props,
[Am]got shot
Don't worry, I hit by a, flurry,
and his [F]punk-ass dropped
dropped
[C]But I'm the one who has been
[B]labeled as [Am]an outcast
In teacher's schools,
I'm the misfit child and outlast
[C]But that's cool with the bull,
[Bm]smack 'em [Am]backwards
That's what you get for fuckin'

[Verse 8]
with a ghetto bastard
[C]If you ain't ever bee[G]n
to [Am]the ghetto
Don't ever come to the ghetto
[F]'cause you[C] ain't understand
[G]the[Am] ghetto
And stay the fuck [F]out of [C]the[G]
[Am]ghet[F]to[C]
[G][Am]
Why me?
[F](alright)
