Tranquillo Lupe Fiasco
[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]
[Am]Peace, no material possessions shall cloud my judgement
[Am]As I reach, in an ethereal di[Dm]rection to provide my s[Em]ubstance
[Am]Love is not found but resides insides me, I manifest this
[Am]I will respect myself and wea[Dm]r serenity as my neckla[Em]ce
[Am]I will replace what I take and have tranquility as my breakfast
[Am]Shed a new light on a new pat[Dm]h[Em]
[Am]I will gain rhythm and lose wrath, attain wisdom and refuse graft
[Am]And build upon what I built o[Dm]n and wisely regulate t[Em]ime I do have
[Am]'Cause what is defeat? But just the evidence of my haste
[Am]Lack of preparedness, in my w[Dm]aste, so I wait[Em]
[Am]Surround myself with nutrition, wholesomeness and true livin'
[Am]Use natural codes of conduct [Dm]to remove schism when t[Em]he rules missin'
[Am]I will pursue felicity, find value in simplicity
[Am]Altruism and empathy will be [Dm]the first thing extende[Em]d to my enemy
[Am]Clarity will be the trademark of my friendships
[Am]Just invest in my business an[Dm]d appreciative of the r[Em]arity of my existence
[Book: Lupe Fiasco]
[Am]'Cause I got chillin' by the million, t[Am]ranquillo by the kilo
[Am]Nigga, nigga, what, and I got k[Dm]ilos by the sp[Em]eedboat
[Am]And I ain't talkin' 'bout them drugs
[Am]I'm talkin' 'bout that love
[Dm]For myself and all my niggas
[Em]All my b**ches and all my thugs, what's up?
[Am]'Cause I got chillin' by the million, t[Am]ranquillo by the kilo
[Am]Nigga, nigga, what, and I got k[Dm]ilos by the sp[Em]eedboat
[Am]And I ain't talkin' 'bout that work
[Am]I'm talkin' 'bout that worth
[Dm]Of myself and all my niggas
[Em]Every diamond came out the dirt, nigga
[Verse 2: Rick Ross]
[Am]I got b**ches on b**ches, all my dreams and my visions
[Am]I remember me fishin' out of ca[Dm]n*ls in the tr[Em]enches
[Am]Now a nigga be flossy, Rolls Royce lookin' glossy
[Am]Quick to put down a demo to get[Dm] these haters [Em]up off me
[Am]I like to smoke to myself, I just try to improve
[Am]Let my son hold my strap while [Dm]I swim laps in[Em] the pool
[Am]Told my daughter the rules which we all must abide
[Am]Your daddy was far from perfect[Dm], things we di[Em]d to survive
[Am]I just wanted to fly, they always lookin' down on us
[Am]School district full of killers[Dm], I mean these[Em] niggas ferocious
[Am]Only violence and drugs, there was nothin' for us
[Am]All I had was this music, I cou[Dm]ldn't afford t[Em]o do much
[Book: Lupe Fiasco]
[Am]'Cause I got chillin' by the million, t[Am]ranquillo by the kilo
[Am]Nigga, nigga, what, and I got k[Dm]ilos by the sp[Em]eedboat
[Am]And I ain't talkin' 'bout them drugs
[Am]I'm talkin' 'bout that love
[Dm]For myself and all my niggas
[Em]All my b**ches and all my thugs, what's up?
[Am]'Cause I got chillin' by the million, t[Am]ranquillo by the kilo
[Am]Nigga, nigga, what, and I got k[Dm]ilos by the sp[Em]eedboat
[Am]And I ain't talkin' 'bout that work
[Am]I'm talkin' 'bout that worth
[Dm]Of myself and all my niggas
[Em]Every diamond came out the dirt, nigga
[Verse 3: Big K.R.I.T.]
[Am]Young nigga say, ball
[Am]'Cause he ain't really livin' life 'less he's down to roll the dice
[Am]Put it all on the line for a couple dollars
[Am]And a bad b**ch that only think[Dm] about him if [Em]he, call
[Am]Is it really worth the time and the effort?
[Am]Chasin' wood grain and the leather
[Am]Puttin' pressure on the pedal, I don't want the devil
[Am]Hopin' he, fall[Dm] [Em]
[Am]Feed him to his nonsense, mothaf**k a contract
[Am]You don't need a handout, they gon' bring the bands out
[Am]Choppas make 'em stand down, go[Dm]od Lord[Em]
[Am]But you don't wanna be another nigga
[Am]Chasin' figures that never really add up
[Am]White folk pass your face
[Am]Dyin' in the grass 'cause they [Dm]wouldn't call [Em]the, law
[Am]'Cause you're hooded, black and they think you're sellin' crack
[Am]Maybe so, you don't give a f**k in a rut, nigga
[Am]'Til those in the street got you stuck, nigga, what, nigga?
[Am]Buck, buck, nigga[Dm] [Em]
[Am]Buried your partner just the other day knowin' he was too young
[Am]Had a tool, tryna roll on the folk
[Am]Let it go on the folk but he wasn't down to shoot one
[Am]Though the time dead and gone, [Dm]is YOLO what w[Em]e on?
[Am]I heard different, it's never t[Dm]oo late to lis[Em]ten and be reborn
[Am]Young nigga, young nigga, young nigga, go be reborn
[Am]Peace and understandin' is what[Dm] you should be[Em] on
[Book: Lupe Fiasco]
[Am]'Cause I got chillin' by the million, t[Am]ranquillo by the kilo
[Am]Nigga, nigga, what, and I got k[Dm]ilos by the sp[Em]eedboat
[Am]And I ain't talkin' 'bout them drugs
[Am]I'm talkin' 'bout that love
[Dm]For myself and all my niggas
[Em]All my b**ches and all my thugs, what's up?
[Am]'Cause I got chillin' by the million, t[Am]ranquillo by the kilo
[Am]Nigga, nigga, what, and I got k[Dm]ilos by the sp[Em]eedboat
[Am]And I ain't talkin' 'bout that work
[Am]I'm talkin' 'bout that worth
[Dm]Of myself and all my niggas
[Em]Every diamond came out the dirt, nigga
