Tip the scale Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Homicide or suicide
Heads or tails
[G]Some think life is a living hell
[F#dim]Some live life just living well
[Fm]I live life tryna tip the scale
My [Am]way, my [G]way
My [F#dim]way, my w[D]ay[Fm][Bb]

[Verse 2]
Yo, I'm al[Am]ways early
I never take off 'cause I got a [G]job
Rob Peter to pay Paul
[Am]Now I real[F#dim]ize it's
the winner that takes all
Do what I gotta [Fm]do because
I can't take loss
Picture me living [Am]life as if I'm
some animal
That consumes [G]its own dreams
like I'm a cannibal
I won't accept [F#dim]failure unless
it's mechanical
But still the alco[Fm]hol mixed
with the botanical
[G]I guess I be [Am]re ferred to the owners
manual full of [G]loaners
Full of all the homeless
throwaways and [Am]the s[F#dim]toners
Soldiers of the streets with
[Am]8th grade [C]diplomas
[Fm]And the world awaiting their
shoulders as a [G]bonus
[Am]Look, let he without sin live without sin
Until [G]then, I'll be doing dirty
jobs like [Am]swamp men
[F#dim]Counting the faces of those
that might have been
[Fm]It's like living that life [E]but I

[Verse 3]
won't live that life again
[Am]Hom icide or suicide
Heads or tails
[G]Some think life is a living hell
[F#dim]Some live life just living well
[Fdim]I live l[Fm]ife tryna tip the scale
My [Am]way, my [G]way
My [F#dim]way, my w[D]ay[Fm][Bb]

[Verse 4]
Lot of niggas [Am]go to prison
How many come out Malcolm X?
I know [G]I'm not
Shit, can't even talk about the rest
[F#dim]Famous last words: "You under arrest"
Will [Fm]I get popped to[F]night?
It's anybody's guess
I [Am]guess, a nigga need to stay cunning
I guess [G]when the cops comin'
need to start runnin'
I won't [F#dim]make the same mistakes
from my last run in
[F]You either done doing crime
[Fm]now or y[F]ou done in
[Am]I got a brother on the run and one in
[G]Wrote me a letter,
he said when you comin'
[F#dim]Shit man,
I thought the goal's to stay out
[Fm]Back against the wall,
then shoot your way [F]out
[Am]Gettin' money's a style
that never plays out
'Til [G]you end up boxin' your stash,
money's paid out
The scales [F#dim]of justice [D]ain't equally
weighed [F#dim]out
Only [Fm]two ways out,
digging tunnels or digging [F]graves out

[Verse 5]
[Am]Homicide or suicide
Heads or tails
[G]Some think life is a living hell
[F#dim]Some live life just living well

My [F#dim]way, my w[D]ay[Fm][G]
