[Verse 1]
Em11 Two tears in the bucket, I cry with you Am7 Bm7 Cmaj9 But I could never lie with you Em11 I could never afford not to afford Am7 Bm7 Cmaj9 I could never put my plans to the side with you Am9 I could never see a red light
Like a deer with a headlight
C6/D I freeze up when I re-up Em11 See, I barely have patience, and you're relating Am7 Bm7 Cmaj9 Only the moment to complete us Em11 Am7 Bm7 Cmaj9 Why you hate to work for it? Went to work for it Em11 See a nine to five was so jive turkey Am7 Bm7 Cmaj9 But when Thanksgiving came, that check didn’t hurt me Am9 You plead the fifth, I read the fifth amendment C6/D We both criminals with bad intentions Em11 They say time heals all
N.C
But if I can shortcut my success, Corvettes by tomorrow
[Hook]
Em11 Am7 Bm7 Cmaj9 Why so sad? Walking around with them blue faces Em11 She said I’m down on my luck Am7 Bm7 Cmaj9 And it’s something I gotta have, blue faces Am9 C6/D I hit the bank today and tell 'em color me bad, blue faces Em11 D5add6 Get that new money, and it’s breaking me down
[Verse 2]
Cmaj9 Gmaj9 My home girl got a credit card scam Amaj7/B C#m7/F# She got a scholarship to college but she don’t give a damn Cmaj9 Gmaj9 Intuition got a Black woman wishin' Amaj7/B C#m7/F# She tell me this on the phone with the noodles in the pan Cmaj9 Gmaj9 I know you, woman, I console you, woman Amaj7/B C#m7/F# You feel like the universe owes you, woman Cmaj9 Gmaj9 Oh, the anticipation, hoping you could make it Amaj7/B C#m7/F# Women don't prosper, chasin' education Cmaj9 Gmaj9 But you're talented, and can't handle it Amaj7/B C#m7/F# And your homegirls can't be your manager Cmaj9 Gmaj9 365 times four, plus more Amaj7/B C#m7/F# Can't get it right, tell me, do you got the stamina? Cmaj9 Gmaj9 But ain't no money like fast money Amaj7/B C#m7/F# Even today, I'm considered a crash dummy Cmaj9 Gmaj9 Amaj7/B A rapper chasing stardom, how can I fast forward
My accolades better than all them?
