Trials Of Life Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Dm]You know you gotta go through hell to
come out right these days
And that's for everything
[Em]you're doing like
Just wanna explain how, [Am]how real it was
I made [Dm]my debut in 93
Touched wax,
the first nigga you heard on that
[Am]ULP
[Em]Took the nation by storm
Walleys and robes,
[Am]Gar cia
Vega dongs
Stood behind the stove
And I [Dm]sure wasn't cooking fries
It was that
Barry
White,
Nino
Brown quote that'll
change your [Am]lives
And then [Em]it came to a halt, end result
Had to learn [Am]that you could
never survive mixing beef with pork
So [Dm]in 96 when my chain was thick
My body went through a change,
quick knock
The same [Em]kid lost 30 pounds rapidly
My neck got skinny, thought [Am]I had the
V
Cause
Tony went raw on plenty
Then I [Dm]found that I was diabetic
But my conscience was telling me
Ghost baby boy [Am]not to sweat [Em]it
So I built my confidence,
back up, work out, eat right
Stay [Am]strong so I can continue
to eat these mics
The [Dm]trials of life, ins and outs
Ups and downs, we all gonna die
It's harsh as it sounds,
that's why [Em]we live for the future
Plans to fix every [Am]moment,
just a little lesson for you to go home with
[Dm]Why you standing there
with your bone lit?
You need to stop, put [Am]your mind on [Em]fo cus
This is
Green
Lantern and
P,
Pretty
Tone shit
Put [Am]loud, tell them young boys,
this is grown shit
Keep it [Dm]on, keep i[Am]t
[Em]Elevate your mind
[Am]Keep it on, keep it on,
keep it [Dm]on[Am][Em][Am]
When I [Dm]grew up, wanted to be
Michael
Jackson I even got the call
to be the tap dance [Em]kid
86, I was only 12, I had to turn it down
[Am]Cause that just wasn't my style
But [Dm]my grandmother was proud
She built a school out in
Jamaica,
Queens
All by herself
[Em]And these was my activities as a child
I [Am]grew up on
Jamaica
Ave, runnin' around
Then [Dm]I realized
Mike was fruity,
I was in the cuties with the pussy
I snapped out [Am]of that shit [Em]quickly,
turned to my teens
Started to realize the pain medicine [Am]felt good I was a lil' fiend,
you [Dm]see, I was born with sickle cell disease
You know them pancake pills,
that's candy to [Em]me
Started doin' rap, shit came natural to me
All [Am]I had to do was write
down my life to the beat
The [Dm]smiles of life, ins and outs, ups and downs, we all gonna die,
it's hard to tell, [Am]that's why [Em]we live for the future
Plans to fix [Am]everything,
just a little lesson for you to go home with
[Dm]Why you standing there
with your phone lit?
You need to stop, put your mind on [Em]fo cus
This is
Greenland and
P, pretty tone shit, [Am]go loud,
tell them young boys this is grow shit
I [Dm]it coming, now
I can feel
on, keep on
[Am]Keep
El[Em]evate your mind
[Am]They will never walk away
Keep [Dm]on, keep on
Keep [Am]keep on
[Em][Am]
