[Intro 1]
[Am]
[F]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
I'm just [Am]a liberation scribe
writing these bars of freedom
The god's got kids and un
[F]cle g'wan help feed 'em
My words free the mind wheth[Am]er you
hear 'em or read 'em
[F]The duty of a civilised [Am]man
is to teach 'em
Wave [Em]your guns at the [Am]system
and unify the prisons
I save a ghetto child [Dm]from getting
drawn out at Prin[Am]ceton
Still [E]a million man [Am]march even
though some are limping
Like [G]Kunta caught up in big [Am]pimping and [Dm]linen
Karma sutra, I [Am]sooth ya
Nah I ain't bitchin'
I armoured through ya,
moved ya and seized your kitchen
Was my steez with ease
to blitzkrieg the women
Now my hymns hem her [Em]heart's stitching
[Am]See I'm repp[Em]in for my fam[Am]
that's the joy of living
See I reps for my fam that's
the joy of living
I see [Em]you reppin for [Am]your fam and
that's the joy of living
Was thanks [Em]taking, there was no thanks
[Am]giving

[Am][F]
[Dm]I keep

[Verse 2]
my eyes on the sparrow
[Am]Americas always gotta [F]full
barrel of stress
So strap on your vest
Since [Em]the manger avoid
[Am]the one left in [G#]the chamber
[F]Di vide and rule
kills the knowledge of self
Now this remainder [G]remains
to be [Am]the last born
The first scorned
[F]The one you made the scapegoat
The god building like [Am]Joseph
In technicolour peep my dreamcoat
Y'all keep [F]it real
I'm a keep the real estate
on the [Dm]block
I don't fiend [Am]for the cream
I fiend for the gold it's backed by
[F]Y'all use the physical two
All seeing third eye
[Am]Pierces holes through your spleen
Scores goals on your team
Choke, holes on [F]your neck
Bill, fold all your cream
[Am]Blaow!, holes through
your dreams
Unbalanced is the beam
The sun [F]rises in the east in Bruknaam
I come clean
I [Am]see you reppin for your fam
that's the joy of living
Was thank[F]s taking,
there was no thank[Am]s giving[Dm]

[Verse 3]
[F]I be[Am]
[F]wis[Dm]e as a serpent,
[F]peaceful as a dove
[Am]Flow be perfection, the attribute's love
From [F]Brixton to Brooklyn, topsoil,
I [Am]recoil to Medina
Ascend thrones in brownstone
Blaze pastures, mines greener
In backwoods trees get nestles
With the beast within I wrestle,
for anointed be this vessel
To rebuke the devil
No progress without the struggle
got [G]to hustle before you
Bubble
God's [F]words (are) no hustle though
[Am]See brother Bains, like Malcolm,
think long range
Sincere
My life's dedicated to change
Locked up in the belly (of) America's [G#]gut
If I'm [Am]sleeping with [Em]the enemy,
my [F]eyes wide shut
You see I [Am]reps for my fam
for the joy of living
You see I'm reppin' for my fam,
that's the joy of living
I see you reppin for your fam and
that's the joy of living
Was thanks taking, there was [Dm]no thanksgiving
