Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Na, [Bm]na, na
[Em][D]
[Em]
Hooooh- ooooh- ooooh
No, [D]no, [Em]no
[Bm]I done been in this game

[Verse 2]
[Em]for years,
it made me an animal
I learned that nobody else can
be [D]held accountable
But [Em]you for your career,
not your man[Am]ager, face [Em]it
Even he can fuck [Bm]up a relationship
I [Em]learned it don't matter
who's spittin better
While these rappers [D]kill each other,
them Jews they stick together
[Em]Like glue; and generate more
money than FUBU
For somethin made 'for you by you'
Every hip- hop nigga listen and wishin'
he had your style'll
Go against you if you rip him or pass
him by (yeah)
A mastermind is somebody
who's actually kind
To everybody,
and try to see every autograph [Bm]is signed
[Em]The humblest way to look
at your career
[D]Is every nigga in here is one hit
[Em]away (yeah)
Whatever goes around in rap
Happens to not come back to me,

[Verse 3]
and I ask you
[Em]If I was to die today
Would you pick me [D]up because
I'm down and out[Em]?
Na, [D]na, na

[Verse 4]
"T" repres[Em]ents the time
[Bm]when my hope [Em]fades
"O" is just a sign on my mind
on my broke days
[D]"D" is for the dangerous
way that the flow stray
[Em]"A" represents the answer to
the ques[D]tion I'm askin'
[Em]"Y" is it today I should (die)

[Verse 5]
Damn, right after one quick [Em]summer
Am I a Young MC or [Bm]a one- hit [Em]wonder?
Is it a following that supports me
BET, MTV, or "E! True
Hollywood Story"?
Can I hold my own and rap
Without havin' to go back to
Pharrell or Poke & Tone?
Can a married man still
appeal to broads
Knowin everything he's spittin
from here on in gon' be raw?
Can a nigga simply spit that real shit
Just for nig[D]gas that feel me or will
the system kill me? [Em](uhh)
If I drop this album and it sells
And the next one don't top it,
will it be [Bm]considered a failure?
[Em]If I had to drop outta
the limelight for a while
Would you still mob [D]me? Hell naw!
You would [Em]not give a fuck about me
If I worked a regular job,

[Verse 6]
I don't even gotta ask y'all
[Em]If I was to die today
Would you pick me up [D]because
I'm down and out[Em]?

[Verse 7]
Na, na, na
[D]"T" repres[Em]ents the time
[Bm]when my hope [Em]fades
"O" is just a sign on my mind
on my broke days
[D]"D" is for the dangerous
way that the flow stray
[Em]"A" represents the answer to
the ques[D]tion I'm askin'
[Em]"Y" is it today I should (die)

[Verse 8]
We just wanna see [Em]you survive
Anytime you [D]wanna talk,
maybe either one of y'all
Wanna give a holla [Em]this way (yeah)
Every lady involved is rootin
for the underdog
You don't let him die today, no!
Oh no [D]- we ain't try[Em]in' to see
You go - I want you here beside me
I don't want it to change - don't die!

[Verse 9]
Now as far as my weaknesses I have [Em]a hard
time competin'
or charting on SoundScan
And Mediabase, I respect Dre
for teachin' me that
Money is easy to make, but hard to keep
As far as my nigga 'Los, I love him
He showed [Bm]me you can d[Em]o a dope al
[D]bum with no [Em]budget (yeah)
With lethal rhymes - they get that
He brought you into the game,
he can take you out outta people's minds (yeah)
(Die) Those who feel
my career will die
Those who choose to leave me behind
Are [D]confused cause they [Em]don't hear
me cry; rather ya ears
Is ready or not,
I know you can hear me now like Mary J. Blige
I will take the shit
I will burn yo' bridges and I ain't talkin
'bout [D]our relationship
What [Em]goes around comes around
with every person
Rather it's life or rap whatever,

[Verse 10]
"Death Is Certain"
[Em]If I was to die today
Would you pick me [D]up because
I'm down and out[Em]?

[Verse 11]
Na, na, na
[D]"T" repres[Bm]ents the time
when my hope [Em]fades
"O" is just a sign on my mind
on my broke days
"D" is for the [D]dangerous
way that the flow stray
[Em]"A" represents the answer to
the ques[D]tion I'm askin'
[Em]"Y" is it today I shou[D]ld[Em]
(die)

[Verse 12]
[D]Hooooh- ooooh- ooooh
No, no, [Em]no
Die
