All of your presidents' evil thirst

Dbmaj7
I went and got me a therapist
I can debate on my theories and sharing it (Woah)
Consolidate all my comparisons
Cm6 Dbmaj7
Humblin' up because time is imperative (Woah)
I'm starting to feel like it's only one answer
To everything, I don't know where it is (Woah)
Popping a bottle of Claritin (Woah)
Cm6 Dbmaj7
Is it my head or my arrogance? (Woah)
Shaking and moving, like, what am I doing?
I'm flipping my time through the Rolodex
Indulging myself and my life and my music
Cm6 Dbmaj7
The world that I'm in is a cul-de-sac
The world that we in is just menacing
The demons portrayed as religionous
N.C.
I wake in the morning, another appointment
N.C.
I hope the psychologist listenin'
[Chorus]
N.C.
The new Mercedes with black G-Wagon
N.C.
The way you front, it was all for rap
N.C.
I was 28 years young, twenty mill' in tax
N.C.
Bought a couple of mansions, just for practice
N.C.
Five hundred in jewelry, chain was magic
N.C.
Never had it in public, late reaction
N.C.
Fifty K to cousins, post a caption
N.C.
Pray none of my enemies hold me captive
[Refrain]
Dbmaj7
I grieve different
Cm7 C
I grieve different (Huh)
[Verse 2]
Dbmaj7
I met her on the third night of Chicago
North America tour, my enclave
Fee-fi-fo-fum, she was a model
Dedicated to the songs I wrote and the Bible
Cm7
Eyes like green penetratin' the moonlight
Hair done in a bun, energy in the room like
Big Bang for theory, God, hopin' you hear me
C
Phone off the ringer, tell the world, "I'm busy"
Dbmaj7
Fair enough, green eyes said her mother didn't care enough
Sympathize when her daddy in the chain gang
Her first brother got killed, he was twenty-one
Cm7
I was nine when they put Lamont in the grave
Heartbroken when Estelle didn't say goodbye
Chad left his body after we FaceTimed
C
Green eyes said you'd be okay, first tour sex the pain away
[Refrain]
Dbmaj7
I grieve different
Cm7 C
I grieve different (Huh)
[Chorus]
Dbmaj7
The new Mercedes with black G-Wagon

[Verse 3]
Bb Gm
So what, paralyzed, the county building controlled us
I bought a Rolex watch, I only wore it once
Bb
I bought infinity pools I never swimmed in
I watched Keem buy four cars in four months
Gm
You know the family dynamics on repeat
The insecurities locked down on PC
Bb
I bought a .223, nobody peace treat
You won't doo-doo me, I smell TNT
Gm
Dave got him a Porsche, so I got me a Porsche
Paid lottery for it, I ain't want it in portions
Poverty was the case
Bb
But the money wipin' the tears away
[Outro]
