[Verse]
Bm
I sit alone in this four cornered room
Houses are graves for the living let this dope spot be my tomb
C
You can have my soul I don't need it where I'm going
                              F#m
You can't look me in my face when my scars are showing
         Bm
I can't sweat through these scars
I can't feel the wind blow
                                            Em
You never get used to not feeling you just know you’re not like them so
I feel like every friend I would die for has died for me
                               F#m
And I'm left here alone lost walking in the streets
          Bm                        Em          G
And I've seen women deteriorate and men do the same
         Bm             Em
Before I knew it I had changed and I ain't goin back there again
Em
Things are moving so fast
                       Em
For what its worth I apologize I've spilled blood on God's earth
                                          F#m              Bm
Father please forgive me I was born in a city where if you wanna be
somebody you gotta kill somebody, and claim the body
 Bm
Father please forgive me I was born in a city where if you wanna be somebody
                               Em
you gotta kill somebody, and claim the body

[Verse]
Bm
Half the time I'm high
Half an ounce every half a day
Smoke half of my mind
Ambition and time away
G
Wonder if I'm gonna find my place with God I lay down I pray
                                                        F#m
Daddy was a motherfuckin lie when the nigga said that crime don't pay
                     Bm
The police know my fuckin face
Just raided tore up my place
My bitch stay faded on coke and pills I don't really trust shit she say
                 G                                Em
Can't trust my homies either might kill me for a piece of weight
D                G                                           Bm
Heard they been checkin my connections I'm gonna have to go see Jose
I heard you put them keys away
To the side for me, got the pies for me
Got a cold young nigga that’ll ride for me
I wrap a brick and he dry it for me
I gotta get to work he do kitchen work
So just cook it up and let it dry for me
        Em
Gave a bitch a block she just sniffed a lot and its fire for me
Gon die for me
God damn

[Verse]
Bm
Artistic bravery they say to get it you gotta risk it
I risked my life everyday why wouldn't I risk this petty shit?
G
Huh?
Don’t make me take aim again
                        F#m
I miss my dead friends, but I don't miss men
Bm
So when my gun raises up
Remember mamma couldn’t raise me so you’ll be a dead fuck
      G
And pardon it
The man with the skin with all the scars in it
My soul, my city's hardened it
    A#m
My heart I don't know where it went
Bm
All I know if there's a war in my head
My eyes don't close when I lay in my bed
Wish I could give my sister all the strength I posses and let the heroin kill me instead
            Bm
You see my grandmother was murdered
My mother used her gun
This killing is in my blood its best I don't make a son
G
I'm in the mirror tryin to find my father in my face so I can shoot myself right in that very 
place
