[Verse 3]
[Verse 1:] [G]Sometimes
I write about the [D]streets
and how life [G]is expirin
Mainly through [D]a choir then
Neighbors inquirin, hearin shots [A]firin
Police [D]sirens, been [G]in car chases,
I be in [D]Scarface's tire and
Snitches per- spirin, cause
they wearin [G]wires when
They know they can be [D]killed by who built
the steet empires and
It's hard to get a [A]job,
cause [D]ain't nobody hirin
An[G]d more people get laid [A]off, than [D]re tirin
I [G]write about the [D]liar,
the preacher with the [G]choir and
The church who didn't [D]soul search
and never was desirin
How money's in[A]spirin,
the youth and the [D]environment
[G]Just tryin to get flyer than the elders
they [D]admirin
Don't want to be a fireman,
cause dealers get [G]you high and
Spend dough,
buy [D]a Benz and furnish they entire den
Look into my [A]eyes again,
see it for [D]yourself
See [G]the jewel is for your brain,
[D]the G is for your wealth

[Verse 4]
[Chorus: w ad libs]
[G]
Sometimes [D]you may hear
[G]me writin that next shit
Different from [D]how some rhyme
You like it when [G]I write that [D]hit
You love it when I write that [G]shit
Sure you do, don't try to [D]fight that
So when I hear a beat,
an idea appears (suddenly)
[G]Then another rhyme
[D]is written (suddenly)
I put [G]it down, put it out,
you listen [A]to it then [D]it hits your soul
[G](Suddenly) Yea[A]h, yeah (yeah, yeah...)
[D][Verse 2:] Sometimes

[Verse 5]
I write about the ladies,
the ones with [G]the tatas and the apple [D]bottoms
They ones I gave the eye highs
to when I [A]got on
Because [D]be fore they didn't
cherish me
[G]I write about the smart ones,
the ones that need [D]therapy
Them hoodrat broads,
them [G]afrocentric queens
And them ones that let [D]you get
between their jeans for the green
I [G]wrote about my [A]exes,
[D]Takara, Alexis
[G]To write about the next miss
and how great the [D]sex is
Ones who were sexist,
those [G]who throw hexes
[D]Crack Beckses and ask
you were your Lex is
That baby mama [Bb]drama,
them drama mama [D]babies
[G]The skeez, the ones who like to [D]tease,
but are the maybe's
The independent ladies,
hookers and [G]them daisies
The sane ones, [D]the crazies, the straight ones,
[G]the gays, [A]deez
Are women that have been in my [D]life
Now will [G]it end when I begin with a wife?
I [D]don't know

From out a motion [G]picture
