Crooked Smile Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Chorus 1]
[C]On my way, on my way, on my way down
[Am]On my way, on my way, on my way down
[Em]You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
But like the sun know you know

[Verse 1]
I found my way back
[C]They tell me I should fix my grill
cause I got money now
[Am]I ain't gon' sit around
and front like I ain't thought about it
[Em]A perfect smile is more appealing
but it's funny how
My shit is crooked look at how far
I done got without it
[C]I keep my twisted grill,
just to show them kids it's real
[Am]We ain't picture perfect
but we worth the picture still
[Em]I got smart, I got rich, and I got bitches still
And they all look like my eyebrows:
thick as hell
[C]Love yourself, girl, or nobody will
Oh, you a [Am]woman? I don't know how you deal
With all the pressure to look [Em]impressive
and go out in heels
I feel for you
Killing yourself to find a man that'll kill for you
You [C]wake up, put makeup on
Stare in the mirror but its [Am]clear that you can't
face what's wrong
No need to fix what God al[Em]ready put his
paint brush on
Your roommate yelling,
"Why you gotta take so long?"

[Chorus 2]
What it's like to have a
[C](crooked smile)
On my way, on my way, on my way down
[Am]On my way, on my way, on my way down
[Em]You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
But like the sun know you know
I found my way (back)

[Verse 2]
To all the [C]women with the flaws,
know it's hard my darling
You [Am]wonder why you're lonely
and your man's not calling
[Em]You keep falling
victim cause you're insecure
And when I tell you that you're beautiful
you can't be sure
[C]'Cause he don't seem to want you back
And it got you ask[Am]ing
So all you see is what you lacking
Not what you pack[Em]ing
Take it from a man that loves what you got
And baby girl you're a star,
don't let 'em tell you you're not
Now is it [C]real? Eyebrows, fingernails, hair
Is it [Am]real? if it's not, girl you don't care
Cause what's [Em]real is something
that the eyes can't see
That the hands can't touch
That them broads can't be, and that's [C]you
Never let 'em see you frown
And if you [Am]need a friend to pick you up,
I'll be around
And we can [Em]ride with the windows down,
the music loud
I can tell you ain't laughed in a while

[Chorus 3]
But I wanna see that
[C](crooked smile)
On my way, on my way, on my way down
[Am]On my way, on my way, on my way down
[Em]You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
But like the sun know you know

[Bridge 1]
I found my way back
[C](round) Crooked smile, we could style on 'em
(back [Am]'round)
Crooked smile, we could style on 'em
[Em](You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
Like the sun, I know you know
I found my way...)

[Verse 3]
We don't look [C]nothing like the people
on the screen
You know them movie [Am]stars,
picture perfect beauty queens
But we got [Em]dreams
and we got the right to chase 'em
Look at the nation,
that's a crooked smile braces
couldn't even straight[C]en
Seem like half the race
is either on proba[Am]tion, or in jail
Wonder why we inhale,
cause we [Em]in hell already
I asked if my skin pale,
would I then sell like Eminem or Adele?
[C]Yo one more time for the 'Ville
And fuck all of that [Am]beef shit,
nigga let's make a mil
Hey officer man,
[Em]we don't want nobody getting k[Bm]illed
Just open up that [Em]cell,
let my brother out of jail
I got money for the [C]bail now, well now
If you asking will I [Am]tell now? Hell naw
I ain't snitching cause
[Em]Man, they get them niggas stitches now[Bm]
If you was a[Em]round,
then you wouldn't need a witness now

[Chorus 4]
How you like this
[C](crooked smile)
On my way, on my way, on my way down
[Am]On my way, on my way, on my way down
[Em]You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
But like the sun know you know

[Bridge 2]
I found my way back
[C](round) Crooked smile, we could style on 'em
(back [Am]'round)
Crooked smile, we could style on 'em
[Em](You're the one that was trying
to keep me way down
Like the sun, I know you know
I found my way back [C]round
[Am][Em][Em]

[Outro 1]
[C]La la la, la la la, la-la-la-la
[Am]La la la, la la la, la-la-la-la
[Em]La la la, la la la, la-la-la-la
La la la, la la la, la-la-la-la
[C]On my way, on my way, on my way down
[Am]On my way, on my way, on my way down
[Em]You were the one that was tryna
keep me way down
But like the sun,
know you know I find my way back [C]round
Back [Am]round
[Em]You were the one that was tryna
keep me way down
But like the sun,

Back [Am]round

keep me way down
But like the sun,
know you know I find my way back [Em]round
