[Verse 1]
[G]this song is about [D]I don't know w[G]hat this song is about
[B][G]

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][B][G]
[A][G][D][F#][G]
[D][F#][G][D][F#][G]
[D][B][G]
It ain't [D]change right here, don't

[Verse 2]
[Bm]
make [G]moves and complain right here
In the street it's [A]the same hot here,
[B]M .I. to[G]
T .X. we drove down here
I [A]was seven that [D]year,
Sharf[B]stown,
South[G]west, laid my head down there
Niggas [A]wild out there, on [B]the way to class,
[G]brother shot laid out where
Car park, dry [D]blood in his hair,
had [Bm]to meet your mo[G]m's stare, no police anywhere just
Prostitutes [A]and fiends and kids all [B]aware that
[G]this ain't the place to be, so yo
Northside is [D]the place to be, so yo
[Bm]U -H[G]aul, man, we had to go, so yo
Alderan
Park [A]is where I call my home
[B]It's no [G]5th
Ward, but what I know, so yo
I grew up in church and played
Little
[D]League and so [B]bucked [G]25
candy bars in the street
Cut grass for
[A]Jordans cause [D]it's middle
school [B]for dudes
[G]Tight shoes is so important
and I can't forget [D]it
Used to copy
Stevie
[B]Wonder song[G]s to give
the girls in letters at 11
So vivid, [D]can't forget it,
this [B]life for me, [G]young
Kevin
Should thank
God for living, everyday [D]at times forgetting
I [B]feel ashamed, [G]at least I said it
To ask forgiveness, to ask for [A]guidance
To help me pull [B]out all [G]the good inside
In a word, to help me put [D]your hand on lies
As [B]I lay these [G]lines to a song
To put life to a [A]song
[D]To put [B]life to [G]a song
To put life to it's own,
[D]to put [B]life to [G]it's own
There's lessons that I'm [A]learning,
put my [B]pride [G]to the side
[D]Pri[B]de to [G]the side
There's a story that I'm [D]telling,
take my [F#]life [G]in [D]stride
[B]Life [G]in stride
There's lessons that I'm [D]learnin',
take my [B]pride [G]to the [D]side
[F#]Pride [G]to the side
There's a story that I'm [D]tellin',
take my [F#]life in [G]stride
As the sands drop [D]through the hourglass,
but [Bm]some [G]things remain suspended in time
The ways of men we [A]never
learned just repeat [B]mistakes
[G]Over just to do it again for no closure
Pop tried [D]to teach me,
but I had [Bm]a fetish for [G]sweets
A dick for
Z's, raw beats,
Audubon
Park
[A]Changed to a place more [B]likely
to get [G]your car took
Niggas watch menace,
act unafraid of bul[D]lets
Then my nigga caught [B]a slug
to [G]the cheekbone
Couple centimeters from the cerebrum
[A]He [D]went from [B]a thug to [G]a preacher
See
God and he halfway breathing
To have [D]a chance to [B]write
[G]the wrong in a song
What he spoke and it stuck with me,
fuck [D]with me
Said that you [B]might not get
[G]the duck quickly
And the line can't explain
all the good creepin'
[D]So I sub[B]mit and still [G]stray
and get frustrated
In a world full of temptation
[D]Bad habits,
[B]man, they so [G]hard to break
But [D]I'm here
Yeah, [B]I'm still [G]here and
I'm breathin', uh
These lessons that I'm [D]learnin'
put my [B]pride [G]to the side
[D]Oh, oh, oh
[B]Pride [G]to the side, a story that I'm [A]tellin'
Take my [F#]life [G]in stride
