Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Dm][Em][Am][G]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
And his own [Am]story
was as curious as his narrative
The tale of his life is the tale of a
[F]writer of incred[Dm]ible [Em]vision
An [C]astute [G]analyst and pundit
A lyri[Am]cist compassionate and callus
A reckless hedonist,
and disaffected malcontent

[Verse 2]
I spit [Am]that Wonderama shit,
[F]me and my conglomerates
[Am]Shall remain anonymous,
[G]caught up in the finest shit
[Am]Get that type of media coverage Obama get,
spit that Kurt Vonnegut
That blow your brain Kurt
Cobain, that Nirvana shit
[F]Who gon' bring [Dm]the game back?
[Em]Who gon' spit that Ramo
on the [G]train tracks
That gold rope,
[Am]that five- finger ring rap
Runnin' with my same pack
You can find the Christ where
the lepers and the lames at
Life is like a dice [F]game:
One roll could land you in [Em]jail or cutting [C]cake,
blowing [G]kisses in the rice rain
[Am]Nice whip, nice chain, a closet of skulls
The stench is like slave blood at Providence Hall,
yeah
They built my city [F]on top of a grave
Nig[Em]ga die, nigga get high
[Bm]an d watch the parade
[G]Back in [Am]the early '90s
"Where they at, where they at?
Get the gat, get the gat"
was a popular phrase
Bally Animals and
[F]Rugbys was a popular craze
This [Em]the vivid mem[C]oirs of a
[Bm]ob noxious slave
I pave [Am]ways like Nat and Harriet
I blast on Judas Iscariot and peel
off in the chariot
I'm sitting pretty, spitting [F]flames,
gripping grains
[Em]Ain't a da[C]mn thing chang[G]ed
[G#dim](How does he do

[Verse 3]
[Am]it?)
My young lad,
do you ask a dolphin how it swims? (No)
Or an eagle how it flies? (No)
That's right, you don't!
Because that's [F]what they
were made to [Em]do (Oh!)
You are [C]about to bear wit
[G]ness my friends
To one [Am]of the greatest technological
advances in modern history
Behold, the confectionery behemoth

[Verse 4]
They say [F]"Candyman, Candy
man, spit me a dream
Blow a [Em]chunk of the [C]levee out
and [G]spit me a stream
[Am]Knock a man's house
down and build a casin-
A $2000 government check from FEM-
I swam down shit's creek
[F]and came up clean
With [Em]a new lease [C]on life like [Bm]Andy Dufres[G]ne
Its [Am]the most poetical,
Nat King unforgettable
Clarence 13X Allah's rhapsody
from Bellevue
I'm splittin' atoms, spittin' [F]flames
Bringin' change,
[Em]things will [C]never be the s[Bm]ame
[G]I got the[Am] rap game singing "At
Last" like Etta James
Lames get they plane shot
down like John McCain
It's [F]a dream, it's a dream
The [Em]flow is eleg[Am]ant [G]like Miss
Coretta Scott King
[Am]A lot of kings seen death
and turn queen
Crack they 24- inch rims in the ravine
Respect the architect,
never [F]test the Elohim
[Em]Goodnight: this is J[C]ay Elec,[G] live
from New [Am]Orleans

[Verse 5]
My journey [Am]has brought me to an understanding
of the divine forces
Which we have all been bestowed.
It was in [F]this search that I came
[Em]upon a revela[C]tion,
[G]Which has called me to guide [Am]millions of people towards their righteous
[F]des[Dm] tiny[Em][C][G][E][Am]
