MVP Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]Yeah
[Bm]I ma[Em]ke money off of bein' myself
Get a [Bm]glimpse of my potential when I
believe in my[F#m]self[Em][Bm]
Yeah
[Am]Yeah
[Em]Yeah
Yeah

[Verse 2]
It's [Em]gettin' harder to tell the
difference between reality and dreams
[Bm]The lines keep blurrin' like
I'm drivin' half asleep
I'm [Em]in vitin' you to see
who's next up in this rap shit
[Bm]Hooks, beats and verses, every
song I [F#m]score a hat trick
[Em]Always said I'd never sign but lately,
I been tempted
'Cause my [Bm]dad just asked for gas money,
my mom just said she spent it
[Am]It's easy to pass judgement
when you comfortable in life
But des[Em]peration breeds a beast, the truth
won't always be polite
So I'm fresh up off the flight,
headed towards a life boat
[Bm]Hope their word has good
credit like a FICO
[Em]Only time will tell but I been
feelin' like it's my time
How [Bm]long you gonna keep your star
player [F#m]on the sidelines?
[Em]But, I'm the coach,
guess God is the owner
[Bm]Guess I'm just waitin' for that
tap on my shoulder
[Am]Tellin' me to go in,
I'mma stop the game
Blow the [Em]whistle like Snowden,
young Terrell Owens
Makin' noise, still one of
the greats though
I never [Bm]RIP, I want MVP written
on my gravestone
[Em]Your boy buzzin' in I swear
this life is like a game show
[Bm]One man army, when I sing,
I [F#m]get Tank hoes
[Em]Yeah, you know that R&B freak love
[Bm]Weed so loud, I need you all to speak up
[Am]I hope every album that I
drop has Carter III buzz
[Em]Wake up, I'm tryna live a life
you couldn't dream of
I'm careful with who I include
in all of this
[Bm]'Cause most want a free ride but
I ain't handin' out scholarships
[Em]Went to college for a semester
All it taught me was [Bm]that college
ain't for everyone
I'm not like [F#m]everybody, so I [Em]left
My mom still supported
but she was upset
[Bm]'Till she saw the crowd scream
my name out on Sunset
[Am]She got to watch her son light
up the whole spot
[Em]Right there in that moment it's like she
understood my whole plot
Different women, different
offers every day now
[Bm]I could see the reason why
some people wanna hate now
'Cause my [Em]past 24 been more
action packed than Jack Bauer
[Bm]Made 100 thousand in
the past [F#m]hour
It's been a [Em]whirlwind,
let me hit the blunt with you
Barely in the [Bm]industry and I already
got trust issues
[Am]Damn, or maybe past relationships,
did that
[Em]I gave 'em all my trust and I ain't never
get this shit back
But, fuck it, 'cause I'm on to new things
I [Bm]looked up at the sky,
long enough, I grew wings
Now I'm [Em]talkin' to myself like
they gon' try and break you
[Bm]God forbid that happens,
breakdowns cre[F#m]ate break-throughs
I'm [Em]sittin' on a debut,
sounds like your greatest hits
[Bm]Labels tryna eat,
so of course they want a stake in it
Of [Am]course they're talkin' money,
so of course I entertain this shit
Of [Em]course they lookin' at my table
tryna find a place to sit
I'm patient with my process,
weighin' all my options
[Bm]Ya'll talkin' way too much, all these phone
calls sound like auctions
[Em]Funny 'cause y'all used to laugh
when I would say I'm ready
Now [Bm]the ones who doubted me are
gonna tell you how [F#m]they met me
When I'm [Em]standin' where I knew I would,
number 1 spot
Another [Bm]year, another rapper,
yeah, another one flop
Y'all barely [Am]fuckin' the game,
you on the scene for 5 minutes
Then you [Em]bust and it's over,
I'm a movie, you're just a snippet
This that '89 Pistons,
fuck the game up, get rings shit
[Bm]Name your favorite rapper,
bet I got him on my hit list
[Em]Name your dream girl,
bet I end up on her wish list
[Bm]Tell me how you want it, beast
raps, or I [F#m]could sing shit
It's [Em]time to wake up,
industry full of hypnotists
I [Bm]speak for myself,
I don't need a ventriloquist
I [Am]need a vacation to where
the real people live
You [Em]just stay on vacation,
havin' real ego trips
You don't wanna admit,
that without you I'll be fine
But the [Bm]truth is hard to swallow when
you chokin' on your pride
That [Em]goes for the girls I swooped in on
Made their brain [Bm]drool,
they gave top with a bib on
[F#m]Always keep my switch[Em] on,
watch me illuminate
Up at [Bm]the studio,
Drake is just a room away
Maybe I should [Am]barge in, maybe
I should wait
This gon' be a funny [Em]story
couple months from today
When I tell it, and it's like

[Verse 3]
[Bm]Damn, yup

[Outro 1]
[Em]
[Bm][F#m][Em]
[Bm]
