Em 
   Yeah I was born a misfit, grew up ten miles from the town of Ipswich

                         D 
Wanted to make it big, I wished it to existence

  Em 
I never was a sick kid, always dismissed quick

                        D 
“Stick to singing, stop rappin’ like it’s Christmas”

    Em 
And if you’re talkin’ money then my conversation’s shiftin’

Cmaj7                             D 
  My dreams are bigger than just bein’ on the rich list

Em 
   Might be insanity but people call it gifted

   Cmaj7                       D 
My face is goin’ numb from the shit this stuff is mixed with

Em 
   Watch how the lyrics in the songs might get twisted

   Cmaj7                      D 
My wife wears red but looks better without the lipstick

    Em 
I’m a private guy and you know nothin’ ’bout my business

    Cmaj7                 D 
And if I had my fifteen minutes, I must’ve missed them

Em 
   Twenty years old is when I came in the game

             Cmaj7                    D 
And now it’s eight years on and you remember the name

           Em 
And if you thought I was good, well then I’m better today

          Cmaj7                            D 
But it’s ironic how you people thought I’d never be great

          Em 
I like my shows open air, Tokyo to Delaware

         Cmaj7                    D 
Put your phones in the air if you wanna be rocked

           Em 
You know I want way more than I’ve already got
N.C. Give me a song with Eminem and 50 Cent in the club [Chorus 1]
            Em 
You know it ain’t my time to call it a day

       Cmaj7           Bm7
I wanna crack on and I wanna be paid

        Em 
But it’s ’bout time you remember the name

   Cmaj7  Bm7 
Eh-ay, eh-ay

            Em 
You know it ain’t my time to call it a day

       Cmaj7           Bm7
I wanna crack on and I wanna be paid

        Em 
But it’s ’bout time you remember the name

   Cmaj7  Bm7
Eh-ay, eh-ay  (hey, hey, hey)
[Verse 2]
Em 
   I can still remember (what) tryna shop a deal (ah-huh)

                    D 
From Taco Bell to T-R-L

                Em 
I climb the Billboard charts to the top until as fate would have it (yeah)

                    D 
Became an addict, funny ‘cause I had pop appeal

Em 
   But they said time would tell (what?)

                Cmaj7                    D 
If I'd prevail (huh?) and all I did was (what?)

                     Em
Put nine inch nails (where?), in my eyelids now (what?)
N.C. I'm seein' diamond sales, like I'm in Zales
                   Em 
Without a doubt by any means, if rap was skinny jeans

                       Cmaj7                             D 
I couldn't do anything in 'em, I'd be splitting seams of denim when I'm spitting schemes

      Em 
Which really means no ifs, ands or buts are squeezin' in between

    Cmaj7                          D 
You sleep on me 'cause you're only fuckin’ with me in your dreams

Em
   Not even when I’m even on my deathbed

           Cmaj7                     D 
Man I feel like Ed, it isn't time to drop the mic yet

        Em 
So why would I quit, the thought that I would stop when I'm dead

             Cmaj7                        D 
Just popped in my head, I said it then forgot what I said
[Chorus 2]
        Em 
It isn't my time to call it a day

     Cmaj7                Bm7 
I got rap blocked and I’m already paid

        Em 
But it’s ’bout time you remember the name

   Cmaj7  Bm7 
Eh-ay, eh-ay

        Em 
You know it ain’t my time to call it a day

     Cmaj7                Bm7
I got rap blocked and I’m already paid

        Em
But it’s ’bout time you remember the name

   Cmaj7  Bm7
Eh-ay, eh-ay
[Verse 3]
Em                                            D 
Ain’t nobody cold as me, I dress so fresh, so clean

                Em 
You can find me in my whip, rockin’ my Fendi drip

                          D 
Man you know just what I mean

        Em 
Shinin’ wrist with the rocks on it, Buscemis with locks on it

     Cmaj7              D 
Everything my voice on, this shit knock, don't it?

  Em 
Balenciaga saga, I'm in Bergdorf ballin'

     Cmaj7                    D 
It’s just another episode, my hoes, I spoil ‘em

Em 
She like the fly shit and I like to buy shit

     Cmaj7                          D 
Shit I’m gettin’ stupid money, what else we gon’ do with money?

Em 
Bitch we be ballin’ now, the king bring you 50 bottles

  Cmaj7                       D 
Tonight we gon’ blow a check, worry ’bout your shit tomorrow

    Em 
The turn up be so real, we ’bout to be super lit

Cmaj7                                  D 
Boy I’m kickin’ straight facts, that’s just how we do this shit

  Em 
Tomorrow we hangin’ over ’til we start feelin’ sober

     Cmaj7                       N.C.
Then it’s time to start it over, here we go again
[Chorus 3]
            Em 
You know it ain’t my time to call it a day

     Cmaj7                Bm7
I got rap blocked and I’m already paid

          Em
But it’s a-bout time you remember the name

   Cmaj7  Bm7
Eh-ay, eh-ay

            Em
You know it ain’t my time to call it a day

     Cmaj7                Bm7
I got rap blocked and I’m already paid

        Em 
But it’s ’bout time you remember the name

   Cmaj7  Bm7
Eh-ay, eh-ay
