Em Em G G A
Em
Em    G                  A
Ha ha shit hold me down, uh

[Verse]

Em
My bread is green like avocado toast
Em
If You Want the beef I gotta pot of roast
       G
Got an honest soul with a liars ways
       G         A
Live a wreckless nightlife in my dying days
Em
Behind this safe is a damaged heart
         Em
They try box me in but I stand apart
G
I broke the mold to escape the cliche
G       A
Soul on fire baby feel the heatwave
Em
Can't let up never give em leeway
Em
Don't fall victim to that he or she say
G
The way that I'm livin can only end up three ways
    G       A                             Em
Its for the fam so I'm cool with each way
                           Em
Came from the bottom ain't scared to fall
                      G
Truth hurts but I'mma bare it all
                                G    A
And Imma carry on and build the same mountain
        Am         Em
I'll be buried on, What's best for me ain't my destiny
Em
It's to give my family the best of me
     G
Be a guiding light for the rest to see
G       A                 Am
Feed em all and leave the recipe
Em
My integrity gets slightly dirty
       Em
Try to keep you happy even if I'm hurting
G
Always working so your futures certain
     G      A
Hope I open eyes before they close the curtain

[Chorus]

Em         Em     G
I need you now
                      G  Am      Em              Em       G
Don't want to see the angels cry I'd rather hear you lie
              G   A
Than hear you say goodbye
Em                      Em                G

[Verse]

Em
Now it's Smooth sailing had a rough start
Em
Took a Rocky road thru them tough parts
        G
Yea the Cuffs clicked but they opened now
         G    A
Became a Free man took an oath and vow
Em
To never break like I've been broken down
       Em
Try to find my balance on the broken ground
   G
My feet is planted and my mind is right
     G       A
Imma Die for mine no fight or flight
Em
Running loose ya better hold me tight
Em
The fires lit but I'm cold as night
G
Keep me warm and I'll light your life
     G         A
Baby name your number and the price is right
Em
Promise made that I'm gonna show your worth
Em
You can see my pain and I know it hurts
G
So I try to hide it so your minds at ease
       G    A
Yeah I made mistakes don't remind me please
Em
Living fast I can't pump the breaks
       Em
Shawty life is short I give it all it takes
G
I feel I failed if the tables set when
    G      A
Its dinner time and there's empty plates
Em
So I break my back so we breaking bread
Em
Family full and the neighbors fed
G
My soul on fire baby flaming red
       G         A
And It burns for you til the day I'm dead

[Chorus]
