Dead Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]They say I'm gonna be
[Bm]dead [D]by day
From the words I say, so hey
If I get a little wicked it's ok
But I gotta get paid fuckin' ay
I'm not bitin' [Abm]my tongue
and I [D]did not stutter
I'm that brotha,
word to the motherfucker
And if you don't [E]know me,
[D]I feel you should know
I add a [Gm]little rock and [G]roll and clock [D]the dough
I sell [Abm]my soul to the [D]preacher's church
I ain't with the [E]bullshit,
[D]you get your preachin' ass hurt
You want to [Abm]judge me, [D]when I don't judge you
I tell the [E]ho true be [D]nothin'
but the truth soooooo
You want me [Gm]dead now,
[D]so go ahead now
But I'd [Abm]rather be dead,
[D]so how you like me now?
You can't [Ab]kill me,
[D]but I'm bound to die
When the devil gets inside
you you wonder why
It ain't a [Abm]new th[D]ang, it ain't old seed
The [Abm]truth is always [D]new, but
never told see
It's that the [Abm]dev il's the preach
[D]er and God's the president
And [Abm]hell's [D]the ghetto
and I'm a resident
They [Abm]lockin' up broth[D]ers for
petty crimes and petty theft
The [E]government's the [D]leadin'
cause of death
Then they [Abm]tell m[D]e I don't
know how to act
When the mayor sells ki's
on Spillum and Mack
God [Abm]damn,
[D]it ain't no where to go
'Cause they [Gm]still look at [D]us
as niggaz and hoes
So yo, they [Gm]got [D]me trapped
inside [G]a circle
[D]360 degrees that I don't believe in
[Abm]Fuck that s[D]hit I want to bankroll
And if I [Ab]gotta sell [D]my soul,
then I'll do so
[E]Sometimes I [D]care sometimes I won't
But then I [Abm]can't afford
[D]to care so I don't
[E]You may [D]thinks this way so when I say
You better push play 'cause
I'll be dead by day

[Verse 2]
I'm dead [C]fool
How you gonna kill [D]a dead man

[Verse 3]
I'll be dead by day
[Abm]They d[D]on't care about you or me
The [Ab]white man [D]tells the black
man's history
[Gm]The [D]KKK looks after me
[Gm]And up t[D]o this day niggaz still [Abm]ain't free
I [D]ain't no racist
Because we all got red blood,
just different faces
Blacks kill blacks,
[Gm]an d[D] whites kill thems[A]elves
[G]Either way you[D] look at it
we all dyin' young
So fuck it
