To Hell And Back Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Gm][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Be that as it may,
years of [Gm]oppression, aggres[G]sion,
and pain -filled depression.
No one knows, or everyone knows,
but does not have the knowledge
of what we're doing,
the way we're doing it,
or where we're trying to get to.
It's like a heinous accusation
that never gains any relevancy to life.
We've been disrespected, downplayed,
and the hallucination of the people
is that we won't make it. Wrong.
Well, you better check yourself
before you're by yourself
in a meaningless state of hypocrisy,
because I've been to hell
and back. Romance.
Tell me, who wants to watch
to an offbeat with a hard knocker?
Better still, why is time more
important than security?
It is the financial status
of an un[F]born [G]lyricist
that allows us the seconds, minutes,
and hours
in order to be not.
If you can't cope,
you need to break north
and cry a silly lullaby
while I'm with another,
cause I've been to hell and
back. Friend or foe?
Good question.
Allow me to make an acute suggestion
to all those wannabes
Don't jot, turn around and get clocked
Then get mad and wanna rock
cause you're lost
We stood alone
even when we weren't by ourselves
So all you non -believers,
get yourself a dictionary
Cause I've been to hell and back
Sleepers!
Yes, you who live every day
just to gain another material possession
Maybe we'll call you
obsessed with that
which makes you look good
And the key word here is look
See, there's more to life
than just a 40 ounce bull,
a fat gold chain, a slam truck,
and a stupid female.
See, you need to get a diploma,
a college degree, a good job,
and a woman who's gonna be with you
when all your bull -drinking homeboys
ain't down no more.
See, God made us in twos,
not [Em]fours and [G]fives,
so you need to get off the hype tip
and get with the tip that which is legit.
Cause see, we've been to
hell [G]and back.
I'll
