[Verse 1]
Peace does not [Am]come before salvation

[Verse 2]
and salvation does not come without truth
[Am]I will only tell the[Dm] truth[Am]
I will only tell [Dm]the truth
[Am]Incoming!
Truth, truth, truth, truth
Truth, truth, truth, truth, truth

[Verse 3]
People wonder, "Is he woke or just [Am]a new
slave?"
Old religion,
he just covered it with new chains
[Dm]Trappin' out t[Am]he church,
he ain't really fake
He divisive, he don't rep the King,
he just want the fame
Aw man, now they actin' like
I'm suddenly political
Told me shut my mouth and get my
checks from [Dm]Evan[Am]gelicals
Where my momma raised me,
on Angela and Eldris
Chuck Berry made it,
but the credit went to Elvis
Know you never knew that,
[Dm]know you [Am]think I'm [Dm]too black
I just think I'm too real, I grew up on 2Pac
You grew up thinkin' that the
Panthers was some terrorists
[Am]I grew up [Dm]hear[Am]in' how they[Dm] fed
my momma eggs and [Am]grits
[Dm]"'Crae, they say you should follow
[Am]in the steps of King"
I say, "You've forgotten how
they shot him in the streets"
I ain't really changed,
it's the same old rebel
Still a radical, I'm passionate,
it's just another level (leggo!)
AT told me I should fight back
They don't like that
(they don't)
Just know if you rock the boat you better
have a life [Dm]raft (what?)
BJ told me [Am]I should fight back
They don't like that
[Dm]Just know if you rock the [Am]boat you
better have a [Dm]life raft, [Am]woo!

[Verse 4]
I will [Dm]only tell [Am]the truth (facts)
People can[Dm]not abide by a[Am] truth,
they prefer [Dm]fantasy over [Am]reality (facts)
[Dm]I will only [Am]tell the truth
I am for truth no matter who tells it
I will only tell the truth
I'm for justice no matter who it is
for or [Dm]against (facts)

[Verse 5]
Rose up out the [Dm]dungeon
I was feelin' haunted
Now I'm bein' hunted
And I'm on a hunnid
Hit the gas, gunning
Skip the past running
Tell 'em they could [Am]bring [Dm]that
If they [Am]really want it
I, I'm on the hometeam
You just running with the wrong team
Never take 'em with the heavyweights or,
boy, you'll die and need a little protein
Southside on the [Dm]Yellowstone,
had a ham bone and a [Am]white tee
Got a twelve-pack of of that real [Dm]talk and I'm drunk,
tell 'em, "Come find me"
[Am]Draped up, dripped out,
[Dm]covered in [Am]the blood
Man, I hang where they cripped out,
sip[Dm]pin' on [Am]the mud
Boy, they swingin', got the whips out,
[E]watch 'em[Am] pop trunk
[Dm]Yeah, I know it's [Am]hella dark,
but I'm tryn[Dm]a light it up
Now these people swear they on me,
sendin' out threat[Am]s
Told [Dm]me keep my mouth shut,
told me be [Am]a Stepin Fetchit
I will not oblige to your colon
[Dm]ized way of faith
My Messiah died for [Am]the world,
[Dm]not just U[Am]SA[Dm]
[Am]They say, "Jesus was Conservative"
[Dm]Tell 'em, "That's a [Am]lie"
No, He not a Liberal [Dm]either if you
think I'll [Am]choose [Dm]a side
They say, [E]"'Crae, you so divis[Am]ive,
shouldn't be a [Dm]black church"
I say, "Do the math,
segregation started that first!"
Hey, [Am]you want unity? Then read a e[Dm]ulogy
Kill [Am]the power that ex[Dm]ists up
under you and over me
I said, you want [Am]unity? Then [Dm]read a eulogy
Kill the power that exists up under you and over me,
[Am]woo! [Em](fact[Dm]s)[Am]
So recon[Dm]ciliation, or concili

[Verse 6]
[Am]ation,
re[Em]quires [Am]defraud[Dm]ed parti[Am]es to be made whole
Not just [Dm]apologizing for the offense

[Dm]I was waitin' for

[Verse 7]
the right time
to tell ya how I feel
And, yeah, I know that
it hurts, but look, it's gon' [Gm]heal
I waited 'til I was on [Cm]prime time
be[F]fore I let y'all [Eb]know
And [Dm]you prolly won't wanna
hear my music no [Gm]mo'
But it's all good, man, I [Cm]love y'all
Hope [F]you know that I'm black, black
[Dm]Traded my Smart Car for a [Gm]Ca dillac,
can you handle that?
And I [Cm]love God
[Dm]I love Jesus, [F]the one out of Nazar[Dm]eth
Not the European with the ultra perm and them
[Gm]soft eyes and them thin lips
And I'm [Cm]still hood
Been in [F]the 'burbs for quite
[Eb]some time
[Dm]But I still might hit the gas station for [Gm]the
Lemonheads and the pork rinds
And I'm [Dm]on one
[F]Yeah, [Eb]116 been real
[Dm]Binghamton, Tennessee,
from Third Ward to [Gm]Ceiling Hill
And I [Cm]live in multiple world,
call me a [F]hybrid 'cause I'm so black
[Dm]Young theologian who educated,
but still be [Gm]at that Chicken S[F]hack, ye[Bb]ah[Gm][Dm][F]
