[Verse 1]
[Am][D][Am][D]
[Am]Y[D]
[Em]'all [D]came [Am]up in the 80s,[D]
so the Reagan era made me crack
[Em]Came in through the [D]borders
and it [Em]came out through the [D]babies
Lately I've been building my name,
I ain't need Barack [Em]Obama
just [D]to make me a change
I do my thing on my own,
soul chef beats feed my Jones
I get [C]blown cause col[D]lectors
never leave me alone
Y 'all used to live wrong
but now I'm trying to get right
I've [Em]seen a lot of death,
so I appreciate life
[D]But if [Em]I was from the sticks
and not life in a [D]fast
Then I'd [Em]probably be at Yale
like on top of the class
[D]Instead I lay it dow[Em]n for all
my family and [D]friends
[Em]That peace to all my haters,
love the folks in the pen
I [D]ain't never [Em]been,
and I don't plan on going [D]in
But I'm in [Em]school to get them out,
cause I see what this life [D]about
I'm getting several years
from [Em]rolling in 20 [D]blues
If I was in a war [Em]zone,
man, I'd be carrying [D]two, it's
It's the [Am]truth
[Em]I'm not the same as I was in my youth
I'm not just talking game,
I'm living proof
It's not hard to understand
[D]how to mai[Em]ntain and walk like a m[D]an,
it's the [Am]truth
[Em]I'm not the same as I was in my youth
I'm not just talking game,
I'm living proof
It's not hard to understand
how to maintain and walk like a man
Don't judge [C]a book by its [Em]cover,
I [D]am no typical brother
I'm [Em]a man in many struggles,
but find ways to juggle
My [Am]wallet, my mu[D]sic,
my wife and my children
Truly focused on [Em]my future,
moving through all this [D]bullshit
[Em]Life is moving [D]fast,
there's no time to lollygag
My [Em]verses serve a purpose,
that's a service I'm giv[D]ing back
[Am]Save the ac[D]colades,
I'm laying the groundwork
When [Am]I vanish on your [D]planet
with the legends who did it first
Pro[Am]to -soul sh[D]ower,
feeding food to the soul
Leave [Em]a mark on your psyche
every time I com[D]pose
[Em]The Vox [D]merged with Soul
Chef on the beat
[Em]Elemental kamikaze,
now my circle's com[D]plete
Peep [Em]what I'm [D]saying, I'm just saying
I ain't playing if you listen
what I'm [Em]saying
Maybe radio will [D]play it,
convey it to the masses
Be massive like Mastiff,
[Em]at tract them like magnets
It's classic, [D]you bastards
It's [Am]the truth,
[Em]I'm not the same as I was in my youth
I'm not just talkin' game,
I'm livin' proof
It's not hard to understand
[D]How to mai[Em]ntain and walk like a m[D]an
It's the [Am]truth
[Em]I'm not the same as I [D]was in my yo[Em]uth
I'm not just talkin' game,
I'm livin' proof
It's not hard to understand
[D]How to mai[Em]ntain and walk like a man
It's the [D]truth[Am][Em]
[D][Am][D][Em][D]
[Em][D][Am][Em]
