Cause I tried to play hard
[Chorus] N.C. Mr. Ford,
    Cm
I'm afraid I have some bad news for you.

C5
What are you talkin' about?

C5
It would appear that one of the bullets grazed your spine

    C5
And that damaged the cord, So what are you tryin' to tell me?

C5
Well, it's safe to say I don't think

You'll be jumpin' around anymore.
[Verse]
    Cm
Yo, this can't happen to me, I just can't believe it

Cm                       Bm
Trapped in a wheelchair, A paraplegic

Bm
There ain't no rehab, There ain't no therapy

Cm
For the rest of my life, Somebody's gotta take care of me

Cm
And people stare at me, With pity in their eyes

Cm
And every mornin' I rise to a life of despise

Cm
And ever night I think I might never rock the mic again

Cm
Cause my brain's fucked up on percacet and vicadin

Cm
Might as well be heroin pulsin' through my veins

Cm
Gotta kill these pains, Or blow out my brains

Cm
To free me from these chains, I'm trapped in this physical hell

Cm
To walk again I just might sell my soul

Cm                                       Cm
And I'm only twenty somethin' years old (years old)
