Trying To Find A Balance Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Gm][Cm]

[Verse 1]
[Dm]They love the taste of [G]blood
Now I don't know what that [Asus4]means,
[A]but I k[Dm]now that I mean i[G]t[Dm]
Maybe they're as evil [G]as they seem
Or maybe I [Asus4]only look[A] out the [Asus4]window
[Dm]when it's [Am]scen[G]ic[Dm]
[Gm]"Atmo[G]sphere finally made
a good record."
Yeah [Am]right, [Asus4]that shit almo[Am]st
sounds con[G]vincing
[Dm]The last time I felt[G] as sick
and contradictive as this
[Asus4]Was the last time we played[Dm]
a show in Cinnci'
"Get real." They tell [G]me
If only they knew how [Dm]real
this life really [Am]get s[G]
[Dm]They would stop acting like [G]a silly bitch
They would re[Asus4]spect the coc[Dm]k whether
or not [G]they believed in it
[Dm]Doesn't take much and
that's [G]messed up
Because these [Am]people [A]do a [Am]lot of
simple shit [Dm]to impress us
While everyone was trying to
[G]out-do the the last man
[Am]I was just a ghost trying to
catch [Dm]some Ms. Pac-man
Hello Hello ma'am, would [G]you be interested
In some [Am]sexual positions and
emotion[Dm]al investments
See, I'm not insane,
in fact I'm [G]kind of rational
[Am]When I be askin', "Yo,
where did [Dm]all the pass[F]ion go?"
[Dm]East coast, West coast,
[G]down South, Midwest
[Dm]Nowadays [Am]everybody knows
[Dm]how to get fresh
Somebody give me [G]a big yes (YES!)
God [Am]Bless America,
but she stole the [Dm]'B' from "Bless" (And kept it!)
Now I'm too fucked [G]up to dance
So I'ma [Am]sit [A]with my [Am]hand
down the front of [Dm]my pants
You can't achieve your goals if
you don't take [G]that chance
So go [Am]pry open that trunk and get
[Dm]those amps (You know!)

[Verse 2]
In the [Dm]days of Kings and
[G]Queens I was a jester
[Am]Treat me like a God,
oh they treat [Dm]me like a leper
You see me move back and forth
[G]between both
I'm try[Am]ing to find a balance
I'm [Dm]trying to build a balance

[Verse 3]
In the [Dm]days of Kings and
Queens I [G]was a jester
[Am]Treat me like a God,
oh they treat [Dm]me like a leper
You see me move back
and forth [G]between both
I'm [Am]trying to find [Dm]a balance
I'm trying to [G]find a balance
[Dm]I'm trying [Am]to build a bal[Dm]ance
[Am]I'm [Dm]trying to[G]
find a balance
[Dm]I'm trying [A]to build [Am]a balanc[Dm]e

[Verse 4]
So now I [Dm]keep a close eye on my [G]pets
Because they [Am]make [A]most of [Am]they moves
off of [Dm]instinct and sense
It's eat, sleep, fuck in [G]self defense
So [Am]straight you can set your
clocks and [Dm]place bets
Wait, let's prey on [G]blind,
deaf, dumb, dead
[Am]Hustle, maybe a couple will love
[Dm]what you said
Emcees drag their feet
across a big [G]naked land
With an [Am]empty bag of seed and
a fake [Dm]shake of hands
Yeah I got some last word[G]s,
fuck all of y'all!
[Am]Stop writin' raps and go [Dm]play volleyball
Gotta journey the world in a [G]hurry
'Cause my at[Am]torney didn't put
enough girls [Dm]on the jury
Guilty of droppin' these [G]bombs in the city
But I'm [Am]innocent,
love is the motive that's [Dm]why you're killin 'em
Guilty of settin' my fire in [G]all fifty
But I'm [Am]innocent,
blame it on my equilibri[Dm]um

[Verse 5]
In the [Dm]days of Kings and
[G]Queens I was a jester
[Am]Treat me like [Dm]a God,
oh they treat me like a leper
You see me move back and forth
[G]between both
I'm try[Am]ing to find a[Dm] balance
I'm trying to build a balance

[Verse 6]
In the [Dm]days of Kings and
Queens [G]I was a jester
[Am]Treat me like a God,
[Dm]oh they treat me like a leper
You see me move back
and forth [G]between both
I'm [Dm]trying to [Am]find [Dm]a balance
I'm [G]trying to find a balance
[Dm]I'm trying [Am]to build [Dm]a balance
I'm trying to [G]find a balance
[Dm]I'm trying to build a balance
I'm trying [G]to find a balance
[Dm]I'm trying [Am]to bu[Dm]ild a balance

[Verse 7]
[Dm]
I [G]gotta find my balance
[Dm]I gotta find my balance

[Interlude 1]
[Dm][Gm][Cm]
[Dm][G]
[Asus4][Am][Dm]

[Verse 8]
[Dm]Now all my friends are f[G]amous
It's [Dm]either one thing or another
They all don't know what [G]my name is
[Asus4]Prob ably[Dm] know both of my brothers
The one is a hard work
[G]in' savior
[Dm]The other's a hard workin' soldier
I'm just your next [G]door neighbor
Workin' [Dm]hard at tryin' to stay sober
You wait for the car at the [G]corner
Pretend [Dm]like you know
what the plot [Dm]is
Won't quit till I hit Cali[G]fornia
And [Asus4]make you [Dm]my Golden State goddess
