[Verse 1]
[C]I could try to say
that I was never one to run
But I was never one to stay
My daddy [G]never taught [C]me how
to knock [Em]a motherfucker out
I lay in bed and dread the day
Ahead a [E]scrawny kind [Em]of kid
talkin all this fat
[C]I never told my friends that I
was tortured by the fact
That I was in the minority
cause where my school was at
South [Em]Central Los Angeles
wouldn't trade it for the world
Adams and 32nd more to this
man you mention
In [C]it's essence evolved music so
how can I forget that
In the first grade,
I met that, fell in love and made that mine
I [Em]never regret that when
I think about the times
When [E]fat boys wanted [Em]to kick
my ass for nothing in my mind
Was [C]stressed daily now
it's funny but then
I learned to pray [G]to God because
[C]I couldn't tell my friends
That I [Am]was bullied on [Em]the block
psychologically getting punked
[E]I never really [Em]got punched or
jacked for [Am]my lunch money
[C]But on the yard like a jailor
kept my eyes peeled
Fifth grade on the battlefield,
man that shit was real
[Em]But on the yard like a jailor
kept my eyes peeled
[E]Fifth grade on the battle[Em]field,
man that shit was real
[C]I will never run again
and when I am a dad
Put my kids on everything
that I could never grab
[Em]Teach them how to fight because
the world is going [E]mad
Teach then how to [Em]love because that's
all we really have
[C]Love is number one to give my
kids when I'm a dad
Music number two because
that's what I'm all [Am]about
I kiss them on the [E]forehead when
they [Em]sit there lookin sad
Shout out loud I [Am]will[C][Em]
[C]be there on the [Am]bow
[Em]I will be there I [Am]will [C]be the[Am]re...
On [C]the bow... on [Em]the bow[C][Am]
The [C]children are the future always
have and always will be
[G]Mine will be protected til
the ending if [Em]it kills me
[Am]They will know that daddy
[E]loved them with a [Em]passion
[Am]An d put nothing a[E]bove them even
[Am]when the world was [E]crashing
[C]Around us in the end and some would
say that's coming closer
I put my daughter on my shoulders
love her til it's over
A [Em]change in consciousness could be the end
of what we know now
Not earthquakes tidal waves and
nuclear [C]meltdowns
Try to be positive in the way
I live to generate light
So if I bring that life into this
world to witness daylight
The [Am]love will carry [Em]over from killin
off all my selfish act[E]s
Help one [Em]oth er human being a day
to get [C]my bass out of hell
Well runs dry daily [G]gotta reimburse
good [C]beats come first
I'm [E]crazy [Em]in love with my unborn child
[Am]Teach them to [E]care then
[Am]let them run w[C]ild[Em]
[Am]I wi[C]ll be th[G]ere[C][Em]
I
[Am]will[C]
[Em]be t[C]here...
On [Em]the bow... on the [Am]bow
[C][Am][C]
[Am][Em][C]
[Am]Let them run w[C]ild...[G][C]
[Em]

[Em][E][Em]

Let [Am]them [C]run[Am] wil[C]d...
[Am]On the bow... on the bow
