I can talk a lot of shit but I'ma knock it off

Almost lost a queen fuckin' with a pawn

Real king won't say nothin' when he's wrong

Dm
I can feel the hate in an obvious way

Stay away from ones that just offer you hate

Dm
Wake up and I pray at the start of the day

    F                       G
Are you hungry? I could put my heart on a plate

Dm
Ha (ha), I need help Lord

           F                       E
Cause this whole time knowin' that I'm comin' up

          Dm
I've been doin' all of this by myself Lord

    F                             E
And the only thing I ever did was fuck it up

Dm
Take flight before the crash and burn

F                     E
Left in a hurry for a fast return

Dm
Calm with the reaper but the bastard dies

F                         G
Devil twist the truth but the pastor lies

Dm
Baptized in that fire water

     F               E
I'ma die harder than Bruce Willis

Dm
Too witted I'm a loose cannon

     F                      G
Keep your nose out, you got no business

Dm
So see us I'm sick of you

C
Point and aim, I don't pick and chose

But I'm brain dead, you better think it through

Dm
Build my kingdom like Camelot

Go to war for love, Sir Lancelot

     Dm
They dance around, I mosh pit

  F                        E
I speak the truth and they talk shit

Dm
Times short, hear the clock tick

        F                     A
No more locked doors, I'm the lock smith
