Trapped Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Bm]It's a [Em]trap!
Yo, they still be grindin', and runnin'
Tryin' to get into somethin' or noth[Bm]in'
I remember them days, when the block got hot,
bullets flyin' for the what
[C]It was, like, you ain't, really give a fuck
I'm a sister, mother, I'm your daughter,
I'm your lover [Bm]and I'm
Right here, and I'm sayin'
that it's wack sauce
Everything that you do tryna be the [Em]boss
You ain't really really doin' it, (nah)
I mean honestly pursuin' [Bm]it
Ca- cause, if you did you wouldn't be
murdering, (your own people like)
Oh ya see, [C]it's a trap, (it's a trap,
that's what it's called [Em]by the way)
It's a [Bm]trap

[Verse 2]
It's a trap night nigga, here we go [Bm]again
Jill left the [Em]door wide open,
so I'm goin' in, (let's go)
Through a bedroom I could see my momma tears,
(tears)
All I smell is Hennessy mixed with my momma [Bm]fears,
(yeah)
Please momma don't cry,
you know I hate cryin', (cryin')
I try my best not to die, you know I [C]hate dyin',
(yeah)
Three eighty for my thirteenth birthday,
(birthday)
I promised her I wouldn't let you motherfuckers [Bm]hurt me,
(yeah)
So y'all get back,
Jeezy got a automatic
Every time I turn the TV on a nigga [Em]see in' static,
(damn)
Guess they forgot to pay them
cable folks
Them niggas in my first class got them cable [Bm]jokes,
(haha)
Open up the frigerator see some old milk
Shit been sittin' so long look like some old [C]silk,
(damn)
I've been cursed since the day this
earth birthed me
I've been cursed since the day my mother [Bm]birthed me,
(yeah)
And how did I get here in the first place
Oh that's right,
see the [D]trap is my [Em]birthplace (haha, young)

[Verse 3]
Said that I know you've been [Em]trapped,
(trapped)
Like you wanna move on,
but they [Bm]hold you back
To face consequences,
of what you did on some [C]bullshit (yeah, wassup)
Said that I know you've been trapped,
(trapped)
Like you wanna move on,
but they [Bm]hold you back, (ain't no way out)
To face consequences,

Even though we had a will, we ain't have [Em]a way,
(way)
They just told us how to live,
we ain't have [Bm]a say, (say)
All I know is the other side got
some cuffs for ya, (for ya)
Fresh khaki suit, nigga that's [Em]enough [C]for ya,
(yeah)
Got ya spendin' all ya money on lawyer fees,
(fees)
Judge throwin' numbers at you like he
speakin' Japan[Bm]ese, (oo- wahh)
All cause a nigga out here playin' bakery,
(bakery)
I'm out here tryna get this bread,
somebody [Em]pray for me, (haha)
I'm always on the block so I rarely go to church,
(church)
Didn't wanna hear it from the preacher,
cause the truth [Bm]hurts
And right now I'm so high,
I should be scared of heights, (heights)
A Town nigga I be on that krypton[C]ite,
(yeah)
I got deadlines nigga no bedtime,
(time)
The only thing promised to ya is some fed [Bm]time,
(time)
And how did I get here in the first place
Oh that's right,
