Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]I[Em]
told you I would show up [G]screaming
out [Am]"FN F" 'til the world blow up
They said I was so finished,
I [Em]told 'em its show business
[G]Meanin' there's no business
[Am]'less Fiasco's in it
Disrespect the dress [G]code,
wear my [Em]street clothes in it
Measured, [G]sold, and clothed in it
[Am]Opened up closed,
after I [G]entered and drove [Em]in it, like uh[Bm]
Only fear [D]God Know the weapons of the

[Verse 2]
[Em]
weak
The weakness of the heart
And never fall asleep
Roll in it, music [G]bumpin', windows tinted

[Verse 3]
[Am]
Through the good neighborhoods
and [Em]all of the woes in it
Exerted control in it
Seen it [G]come and go,
stolen [Am]and sold in it
Diamond and gold [C]plated
Foun[G]tain of youth,
[Em]dip pin' my toes in it
Bounce [G]in the booth, spit
it like Skoal [Am]in it
Putting my heart [G]and my soul [Em]in it
[Bm]'Cause
I only fear [D]God Know the weapons of the

[Verse 4]
[Em]
weak
The weakness of [G]the heart
And [Em]never fall asleep

[Verse 5]
Once upon a time, not long ago [Em]When
the pusher man creep,
where they live life po'

[Verse 6]
[Em]With fifteen in the [G]clip
and one in the hole
Hallway [Am]wall full of RIP's,
some [G]some of us know
None [Em]of us know [G]the makers of the toast
Like the bottom of the [Am]stove that was used
in the [B]murderin' of the [G]scroll
[Em]Heart colder than Edy's
Won't [G]let the seedy city defeat [Am]me
Rub me out like genies,
won't concede 'til I'm [A]graffiti
Nigga [Bm]what
I only fear [D]God Know the weapons of the

[Verse 7]
[Em]
weak
The weakness of the heart
[G]And I will neve a[Em]sleep
I done bellowed, said [G]"what up?" to the reaper

[Verse 8]
[Am]Hell
met like Riddell,
then high-water, hello
[G]hello
To [Em]the five-year-old gunshot gunshot gunshot [G]hearer,
I hear ya
[Am]Clearer than the invisible
[Em]man in the mirror
Cheer up, I put it on [G]the bars like beer nuts
Put [Am]a bug in they ear,
so from here up, [B]they hear us

[Verse 9]
[Bm]Then we only fear God[D]
Know the weapons of [Em]the weak
The weakness of [G]the heart

[Verse 10]
And we will never fall asleep
[Em]Once upon a time, not long ago
When the pusher man creep,
where they live life po' I [G]put it on [Em]my grandmomma's daughter
[G]I microphone control with the [Am]soul of
slave hummin' [B]"Wadin in the [G]Wa ter"
I [Em]author [G]like D.W. brother, like a hustla'
God [Am]place me in ya armor,
I [G]prescribe no partners
[Em]I do it for [G]the hood like a parka
But tell my niggas not to shiver
[Am]Only time we quiver like a [G]archer is

[Verse 11]
[Bm]'Cause we only fear God[D]
Know the weapons of [Em]the weak
The weakness of the heart
And [G]we will never fall [Em]asleep
Here [G]we are now, entertain us Change

[Verse 12]
[Am]
don't change us
Ever [G]since the game [Em]trained us
We came up [G]like worms in the rain
I dream my chain [Am]be came a loose
noose that [B]was used [G]to hang us
So [Em]now, [G]my insane brain, my [Am]32 teeth
And two feet creep [B]like its Elm [G]Street
[B]'Cause
I [Bm]only fear [D]God Know the weapons of the

[Verse 13]
[Em]
weak
The weakness of the heart
And I never fall asleep

[Verse 14]
Once upon a time, not long ago When [Em]the
pusher man creep,
where they live life po'
