[Intro 1]
[Am]
[C][Am]
[C][Eb][Am][C][Am][C][Bb]
[Am]
[C#]
This [Bb]is war

[Verse 1]
[Am]with no weapons
Marchin with no steppin'
Murder with no killin'
Illin' every dir[C]ection
[Bb]Firs[Am]t, no sequel[C]
Do the math, [Am]no equal
John with no Yoko
More power, less [Bb]people

[Verse 2]
And [Am]no, I'm not afraid of that
Print it in your paperback
Every rap is made in fact
To act as a [C]delayed at[Bb]tack
[Am]Every phrase a razor blade
That's saved un[E]til they [Em]play it [G]back
To slay and [Am]leave em laying
on the pavement
Bang, [C]fade to [Bb]black

[Verse 3]
[Am]In the wastelands of today
When there's nothing left to [C]lose
And and there's nothing more to [G]take
But you force yourself [Dm]to choose
In [C]the wastelands

[Verse 4]
[G]of [Am]today
Where tomorrow disap[C]pears
While the future slips [G]away
And your hope turns into [Dm]fear
In the waste[Am]lands of today

[Interlude 1]
[Am][C]
[Am][C][Bb][Am][C#][Bb][Am]

[Verse 5]
Roll credits, you get [Am]it
The show's done
They're talking for just talking
But meaning, they got [C]none
[Bb]None of 'e[Am]m come proper
They talk like a shotgun
But how many got bred with integrity?
Not one

[Verse 6]
So [Am]no, I'm n[Dm]ot afraid
To see these suckers hold
a blade to [Am]me
[Dm]Ain't no way [Am]to shake the ground
I built before you [C]came to [Bb]be
[Am]Take it how you take it
I'm the opposite of vacancy
And this is [G]not ne[Am]gotiation
Y'all can hate and [C]wait [Bb]and [Am]see

[Verse 7]
In the [Am]wastelands of today
When there's nothing left to [C]lose
And and there's nothing more to [G]take
But you force yourself [Dm]to choose
In [C]the wastelands

[Verse 8]
[G]of [Am]today
When tomorrow disap[C]pears
When the future slips [G]away
And your hope turns into [Dm]fear
In the waste[Am]lands of [B]today

[Verse 9]
[E]of tod[Em]ay[F]
When there's nothing left [C]to lose
And and there's [G]nothing more [F]to take
But you force yourself [C]to choose
In the [G]wastelands

[Verse 10]
of [F]today
When tomorrow dis[Am]ap pe[C]ars
When the fu[G]ture slips [F]away
And your hope turns [Am]into [C]fea[E]r
In the waste[Am]lands of today
