[Verse 1]
[Em][D#aug][Em][D#aug]
(Hit-boy)
[G]Uh, I grew up [C]in Norwalk
Hanging by the donut shop
Didn't have a car so we [Bm]used
to have to [Em]walk [C]the block
I was only six years old, I was running
Cold bare [B]feet when the storm
started [Em]coming
Mama worked [C]two jobs
Couldn't keep the fridge stocked
Used to eat [Bm]popcorn for dinner
with the soda pop
Moved out [Am]one too many times,
couldn't count it
[Em]Always keep it real, no doubtin'

[Verse 2]
[C]Young girl you better go fast
[Baug]This world a[D#aug]in't[G]
gonna [C]hold back
You know you gotta own your [Em]life, uh

[Verse 3]
And I saw it in my [C]dreams
I knew I'd be [Bm]seven[B]teen
Watching [Bm]real [Am]ity spinning arou[Em]nd
And I saw it in my [C]dreams
I knew life would [B]change for me
This is real[Am]ity
Look at me [Em]now

[Verse 4]
Had to let the [C]house go
Didn't let me say no
Mama had to [Bm]quit her job
Just so I could [G]make the show
[C]Thought it was the big break,
still no breaking
Gave me seven [Bm]G's and a deal,
didn't [Em]take it
Days in the [C]motel,
nights in the studio
Spending every [Bm]penny praying God
don't let us go broke
[C]Fashion Nova got us in [Am]a house
[C](ay), L.A living
[Bm]Got my own b[Em]ed now, it's been a minute

[Verse 5]
[C]Young girl you better go fast
[Baug]This world a[G]in't gonna hold ba[C]ck
You know you gotta own your life, [Em]uh
And I [G]saw in my

[Verse 6]
[C]dreams
I knew I'd be [Bm]seventeen
Watching [Am]reality spinning
around (spin[Em]ning around)
And I saw it in my [C]dreams
I knew life would [B]change for me
This is real[Am]ity
Look at me [Em]now (look at [C]me now)

[Verse 7]
I used to [Bm]dream (used to dream)
I used to dream [Am]about it
I knew that I [Bm]would make it [G]out[C]
Ain't what it [Bm]seems
(what it seems)
That's why I never [Am]doubt it
I know I'm gonna [Em]make it [Bm]out[G]

[Verse 8]
[C]And I saw in my dreams
I knew I'd [Bm]be seventeen
Watching [Am]reality spinning [Em]around
And I saw it in my [C]dreams
I knew life would [Bm]change for me
This is real[Am]ity
Look at [Em]me now
