[Bridge]
       C7          Bb   
I went to war last night
C7                             Am                 
With an automatic weapon don't nobody call a medic
F7                            
I'ma do it 'til I get it right
          C7             Bb7
I went to war last night ■  
     F7                C7              Am                 
I've been dealing with depression ever since an adolescent
                               Bb                       
Duckin' every other blessin' I can never see the message
  C7                                                   
I could never take the lead I could never bob and weave
     Bb                                       
From a negative and letting them annihilate me


[Chorus]
    Am                                       
And it's evident I'm moving at a meteor speed
                                      C    Bb  Am F7    
Finna run into a building lay my body ■ in the ■  street
              C7                                  C     
Keep my money in the ceiling let my mama know I'm ■ free
                     C                                  
Give my story to the children and a lesson they can read
                                         C     
And the glory to the feeling of the holy unseen
C                                                   
Seen enough make a motherfucker scream I love myself
       C      
I lost my head
                                     C   
I must've misread what the good book said
        C                           
Oh woes keep me it's a jungle inside
                                         C C
Give myself again 'til the well runs dry ■ ■
