Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Am]Haven't you learned anything [C]then
from the mistakes of the [Em]past?
[C][Fm]
[E][C][Fm]
[Em]Self -de[C]struction is [Fm]not a
key function
Another round of leaders,
cause the people keep [Am]frontin'
[Em]When will they real[C]ize
the [Fm]body needs head?
It's more than what's
said
when generations lie
I de[Am]liver informa[E]tion like am[Fm]munition,
you're putting your rifles
Got to be mentally strapped,
we're talking surviv[Am]al
Even [E]gangs and [Fm]movements
come [G]from warrior's tri[Fm]bal
For protecting our hoods
we become desperate and [Am]primal
[E]From CDs to [C]vinyl I [Fm]build on
I'm not on a mission to [C]save all
[Em]Oh, being a [Am]hero,
[Em]you rate me as a [Fm]zero
in the face of R &B?
Pop lights!
At Tarvat, the first Jones [Am]fight,
I'm [E]the underdog
[Fm]Soon [C]to be the boss [Fm]hog,
spirit spiking with the spike
About to [C]get my flaw [E]gone
Word bomb!
[C]I'm up against a grain of deception
In [Fm]the underground,
giving backpackers direction
[Am]Giving [E]thugs a re[C]flection time
Let's [Fm]re deem a respectable neighborhood,
then reach for [Am]cream as a whole
We [Fm]rising but forget[C]ting our soul,
[Fm]crucifixio[C]n is a habit[Fm] of old[C]
Let's work [Am]it out now
[Em]Self -destruc[C]tion is not a
key function
[Fm]Another round of leaders
help the people keep [Am]frontin'
[Em]When will they real[C]ize
the body needs head?
It's more than what's
said
when generations lie [Am]dead
In [Em]the gutters of the [C]struggling vote
Serving [Fm]brutality to our own [C]people
is a dangerous hope
[Am]Keep your [Em]game face on[C]
and stop [G]being a [C]pawn
You won't self -destruct if
you let self be re[Am]born
From [Em]the drugs, [C]poverty, police brutality
[Fm]Self -destruc[C]tion is
a common mental[Am]ity
My [E]anatomy with[C]draws,
[Fm]slavery mindset
Daughter to dead son,
avoidin' these [Am]rockheads
[Em]Reppin' the [Fm]God life, relapsin' the mania
My [C]cranium's [Fm]false life
like [C]Mesopot[Am]amia
The [E]cradle of God [Fm]force, indigenous life force
I ride at my own speed,
Jackie the White [Am]Horse
And [E]just in the [Fm]east side of
[C]thinkin'
[Fm]You're sinkin' like Atlantis
Your leadership is sippin'
at [Em]the wheel
That's [E]Risky [C]Risky like [G]smokin'
with [Fm]Molly on a Harley
With 12 bricks stashed in the [Am]seating
[E]Risky Risky like the [C]1960s[Fm]
[C]Risky like the governor
becoming Presid[Am]entski
Full term
[C]You should be [Fm]very concerned
And if you loved O .D [C].B.
then stop smokin' that sher[Am]m
[Em]Self -destruc[C]tion is not a
key function
[Fm]Another round of leaders
cause the people keep [Am]frontin'
[Em]When will they real[C]ize
the [Fm]body needs head?
It's more than what's
said
when generations lie [Am]dead
In [E]the gutters of the [Fm]struggle evolve
[G]Serving bru[Fm]tality to our own people
is a dangerous hope
[Am]Keep your [Em]game face on[C]
and stop [Fm]being a pawn
You won't self -destruct
if you let self be re[Am]born
Revolu[Em]tionary storm, I want victory
[Fm]I can contemplate my future
if my people ain't free
[E]You can [Em]be black [C]or white,
red, [Fm]yellow, or green
Freedom, justice,
and equality re[Em]mains the key
People absorb our [Fm]words
from the [C]steeples to the curbs
Some [Fm]we lack in the light,
even white folks per[Am]turbed
at the leadership level
[C]Administ[Fm]ration and rising people
is a system nasty
Down with the [Am]devil
One [Em]love, one di[Fm]mension
Divine intervention
opens doorways of plenty
We seek soul re[Am]demption
like [E]it wasn't the be[Fm]ginning
Children of God
Learning the methods of life
One love until as[Am]cension
[E]Losing [Fm]ourselves,
paying [C]bills until [Fm]ten sion
Missing on destiny with
no honors to [Am]mention
An[Fm]d no goals accomplished
How can we stop this repetitious
path of destruction?
As [Am]upon us,
[Em]self -destruc[C]tion is [Fm]not a
key function
Another round [Fm]of leaders
help the people keep frontin'
When [Em]will they real[C]ize
the [Fm]body needs head?
It's more than what's [Fm]said
when generations lie dead
In the gutters of this [C]struggle evolve
Serving brutality to our own people
is a dangerous home
Keep your [Em]game face [C]on
and stop being a pawn
You won't self -destruct

[Outro 1]
if you let self be reborn
[Em]
