Life Is Poetry Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G][D][C][D]
[G]We [D]go [C]fas[D]t
[Em]like boy
racers pulling out on the stunt lines
Stand like soldiers fighting
out on the front lines
Hide like a city boy on
Friday march [D]lines
Tell [Em]me not to drop both
knowledge and punchlines
So to the four seasons of which I [D]speak
Our [Em]winter of discontent reaches a [D]peak
[Em]Till we heat up like a summer
This clique rise up quick
as an arrow spring
In the
Middle
[D]East
Yeah, [Em]I'm the
London lyricist
Feel me when I'm [D]in the midst
See [Em]them when they running
And they seeking out for
something
But nothing is coming
It's cunning, not stunning
They be [D]running this ma[Em]terialist
In no seriousness
Tryna dumb it
Timid till we stuck and can't [D]finish
No [Em]substance, gimmicks
And they call that [D]lyrics?
[Em]Nah
They use bars to brag [D]about it
Have [Em]you got the skill though?
I highly doubt it
I'll [G]never [D]live [C]again
[D]What I lea[G]ve behin[D]d I fen[C]d
[D]When life [G]flows like [D]prose
from the [C]poet's [D]pen
I will [G]want to [D]live [C]again
[D]I'll live again
[Em]Aces high said the king to the jokers
Who were longing to feel both
burdened [D]an d hopeless
[Em]Our mere existence is
God's magnum opus
We're all here for a reason,
everybody [G]has a purpose
[Em]Walking backwards, time is sub[D]tracting
Do [Em]I have a soul or are my
chemicals react[D]ing?
[Em]Place our faith in hope,
what does [D]hope bring?
[Em]Young lovers proposing
with silver [D]smoke rings
[Em]This is more than just a rush
of en[D]dorphins
[Em]Love exists even through the dis[D]tortion
[Em]I put my lips to the best
new kiss I've ever [D]known
[Em]And get thrown
[D]I can f[Em]old my thoughts up
into a paper [D]plane
Write it [Em]right to your ear,
into your [D]brain
I stumble [Em]with my own two hands
I've built where rivers have been cast
We'll do it because
[D]I will n[G]ever l[D]ive a[C]gain
[D]What I lea[G]ve behin[D]d I fou[C]nd
[D]When life [G]flows like [D]rose from
[C]the [D]pond[G][D]
[C][D]
I saw my [Em]life flash before my eyes
And [D]what I saw [Em]was a disappointment
It was really quite [D]a bore
[Em]Badly written, poorly acted up,
[D]an d no awards
There will [Em]be no sequel,
there will be no encore
I never pretended to be anything else I laid
my heart on the line even in [G]spite
of my[D]self
Nev[Em]er questioned it, even for a minute
I thought as my audience you
deserved to [D]be in it, yeah
[Em]Yeah, you deserved my
words and all honesty
And that's how we built up our chemistry
[D]I would n[Em]ev er lie to you
I hope you respect that
You always stuck by me so
I guess that re[D]flects that
[Em]Be fore I die or at least go b[D]ust
The [Em]grand finale,
now that I have your [D]trust
The [Em]reason I do this and kick off a bust
Is just to love, to love and be loved
I will [G]never [D]live again
[C]Yeah, we'll never leave [D]again
What I'll [G]leave be[D]hind, [C]I'll send
Yeah, we'll never leave [D]again
When life [G]flows like [D]prose
from the [C]poet's
From the [D]poet's pen
We'll [G]want to [D]live again
[C]Damn
[D]I'll live again
When life [G]flows like prose
from [D]the poet's pen
We compose [C]in our drawers,
here it [D]goes again
Cause [G]we chose to rose,
to won't [D]grow again
When life [C]flows,
life flows from the [D]poet's pen
Yeah, it's [G]poetry, cause life [D]is poetry
You can catch [C]me with a line,
no, [D]they ain't towing me
And [G]what I leave behind is
[D]how you knowin' me
Yeah, [C]it's poetry, cause [D]life is poetry
[G]
