Ghetto Supastar (That Is What You Are) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Dm]Man, man
Look at the sky
All the stars, man,
the stars is beautiful tonight
Look at 'em

[Chorus 1]
Ghetto su[D]pastar
That is what [G]you are
Coming from [Em]afar
Reaching for [A]the stars
Run away [D]with me to anoth[G]er place
We can re[Bm]ly on e[A]ach other, uh- h[G]uh
From one [Em]cor ner to [A]another, uh- h[Dm]uh

[Verse 1]
[Dm]Some got hopes and dreams,
we got ways and means
The supreme dream team
always up with the schemes
From [Dm]hubcaps to selling raps,
name your theme
My rise to the top, floating on this cream
Who the [Dm]hell wanna stop me?
I hated those who doubt me
A million refugees with unlimited warranties
[Dm]Black Caesar, dating top divas
Diplomatic legalese; no time for a Visa
They [Dm]just begun, I'ma shoot them one-by-one
Got five sides to me,
something like a pentagon
[Dm]Strike with the forces of King Solomon
Letting bygones be bygones,
and so on, and so on
I'ma [Dm]teach these cats
how to live in the ghetto
Keeping it retrospective from the get go
[Dm]Lay low, let my mind shine like a halo
Pa-Pa-Politic with ghetto senators
on the D-low

[Chorus 2]
Ghetto su[D]pastar
That is what [G]you are
Coming from [Em]afar
Reaching for [A]the stars
Run away [D]with me to anoth[G]er place
We can re[Bm]ly on e[A]ach other, uh- h[G]uh
From one [Em]corner to an[A]other...
One, [Dm]two, and you don't stop, yo!

[Verse 2]
My [Dm]eyes is sore, being a senator
Behind closed doors
hitting truth to the seafloor
The [Dm]rich go North, ignore the tug of war
While the kids are poor,
open new and better drug stores
[Dm]So I became hardcore,
couldn't take it no more
I'ma reveal everything, change the law
[Dm]I find myself walking the streets
Tryna find what's really going on in the streets
Now every [Dm]dog got his day, needless to say
When the chief away
that's when them cats want to play
I [Dm]told you,
mess around you fools like Cassius Clay
Stretch my heater
make you do a pas de bourree
Kick your [Dm]balls like Pelé,
pick 'em doing ballet
Peak like Dante, broader than Broadway
Get ap[Dm]plause like a matador, cry yelling, "Ole!"
Who the hell wanna save me?,
From B.K. to Cali

[Chorus 3]
Ghetto su[D]pastar
That is what [G]you are
Coming from [Em]afar
Reaching for [A]the stars
Run away [D]with me to anoth[G]er place
We can re[Bm]ly on e[A]ach other, uh- h[G]uh
From one [Em]corner to an[A]other uh- [Dm]huh
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 3]
Just when you [Dm]thought it was safe
in a common place
Showcase your finest
is losing fast in the horse race
[Dm]Two-faced, getting defaced, out like Scarface
Slow your roll, money,
let me put on my screwface

[Bridge 1]
Well, I'm [Gm]paranoid at the things I say
Wondering what's the [Dm]penalty
from day to day
I'm hanging out party[Gm]ing with girls,
that never die
You see, I was picking on the [Dm]small fries,
my campaign telling lies

[Verse 4]
Was just [Dm]spreading my love,
didn't know my love
Was the one holding the gun and the glove
But it's all [Dm]good as long as it's understood
It's all together now in the hood

[Chorus 4]
Ghetto su[D]pastar
That is what [G]you are
Coming from [Em]afar
Reaching for [A]the stars
Run away [D]with me to anoth[G]er place
We can re[Bm]ly on e[A]ach other, uh- h[G]uh
From one [Em]corner to an[A]other uh- [Dm]huh

[Chorus 5]
Ghetto su[D]pastar
That is what [G]you are
Coming from [Em]afar
Reaching for [A]the stars
Run away [D]with me to anoth[G]er place
We can re[Bm]ly on e[A]ach other, uh- h[G]uh
From one [Em]corner to an[A]other uh- [Dm]huh

[Outro 1]
[Dm][Dm][Dm][Dm]
[Dm][Dm][Dm][Dm]
[Fade out]
