[Verse 1]
[Am]Yeah, [F]yeah yeah yeah yeah [Dm]yeah yeah,
let's go

[Verse 2]
[G]Ha, [Em]ha, ha, ha, ha, [C]o- oh
And dey say, [Bm]o- oh[G], o- oh, o- oh
Ha, ha, [Em]ha, ha, ha, [C]o- oh
And dey say, o- [Bm]oh o- oh, o- oh

[Verse 3]
[G]Hold up, stop now, let me get a look at ya
[Em]Damn girl, I ain't seen you since prom
Come to [C]think about it
I can't believe its been that long
I heard your [Bm]man locked down
now, how long he gone?
Oh dat [G]long

[Verse 4]
How the hell he get time like that? [Em]Three
strikes with possession,
aw he ain't comin' back
He [C]left you with two kids
and bills all around
Plus you [Bm]found out he had another

[Verse 5]
chick cross- town
[G]It's always the darkest
right before the sun rises
And you [Em]gotta stay strong for
the kids in their eyes and
[C]Please don't despise and go
against all brothers and
Have a [Bm]hatred in your heart
and take it out on another

[Verse 6]
I [G]hate to sound Tupacish now, momma
But keep your head up
But [Em]you gon' make it I promise
you keep your head up
And [C]that, that don't kill you only
makes you stronger
And the [Bm]will to succeed will only
feed the hunger
[G]Fo' real (fo' real, fo' real)

[Verse 7]
[Em]Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, o- [C]oh
And [G]dey say, [C]o- [Bm]oh, o- oh, o- oh
[G]Ha, ha,[Em] ha, ha, ha, o- [C]oh
And dey say, [Bm]o- oh o- oh, o- oh

[Verse 8]
I was [G]at the gas station and
a man walked past
With his [Em]sign will work for food,
clothes or cash
And he [C]asked if he could pump my gas,
so I let him
Clean the [Bm]windshield
and throw out the trash
So I let [G]him (hey)

[Verse 9]
I even asked a brother his name Where [Em]he was
from,
got kids man and what's their ages
He kinda [C]stuttered for a second
He kinda looked surprised
That any[Bm]one would even
take an interest in his life
He said, "Young [G]brother,
dem the only words I done heard
In the last [Em]year that wasn't no
Or get the fuck away from here"
How could [C]somthin' so simple
as general conversation
[Bm]Mean much more than general
[G]conversation? (Hey)
You could tell life had beaten him down
Like he [Em]was in the title fight
And this might be his last round
[C]Sometimes the easiest things
we take for granted
Un[Bm]til they gone
Then realize we even had [G]it
Fo' reel [Em](fo' real, fo' real)

[Verse 10]
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, o- [C]oh
And [G]dey say, [C]o- [Bm]oh, [G]o- oh, o- oh
Ha, [Em]ha, ha, ha, ha, o- [C]oh
And [G]dey say, o- oh o- oh, [C]o- oh

[Verse 11]
[Bm]I used to th[G]ink that life
had a plan for me
Until I [Em]realized life had to be
planned by me
See that's the key
I [C]only deal with what I can see
'cause over [Bm]history,
Mystery brought us nothin' but misery
Man, [G]more people done [Gm]died
in the name of the lord
[G]Than in any[Em] natural disaster,
disease or gang wars
Before [C]guns there was swords
And they was killin' each other
And what's [Bm]changed to this day
still killin' each other
Killin' a [G]brother while another
mother cries for help
Man, [Em]we need to help
a brother find them self
Feed [C]em light, one, two, three
[Bm]Hey, that's something every
brother should see
And that's fo' real
[G]And that's fo' real,

[Verse 12]
and that's fo' real
[Em]Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, o- o[C]h
And dey say, [G]o- [C]oh, o- oh, o- [Bm]oh
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, o- oh
