The Otherside Cifras

From the 2011 album undun featuring Bilal and Greg Porn
 
[Verse 1]
 
F#m
Yo, we obviously need to tone it down a bit
F#m
Running round town spending time like it’s counterfeit
A                      F#m
Everybody catching hay fever like sinuses
A                      G#7
Step in my arena let me show y’all who the highness is
 
F#m
You might say I could be doing something positive
F#m
Humble head down low and broke like promises
A                      F#m
Soaking and broken in a joke like comics is
A                      G#7
Not enough paper to be paying folks compliments
 
F#m
But when that paper got low so did my tolerance
F#m
And it ain’t no truth in a dare without the consequence
A                      F#m
Listen if it not for these hood inventions
A                      G#7
I'd just be another kid from the block with no intentions
 
F#m
On the dock of that bay serving a life sentence
F#m
Even if I’m going to hell I’m gonna make an entrance
A                       F#m
Yeah let em know I’m getting cheese like omeletes is
A                       G#7
But I’m the toast of the town like Thomas is
 
 
[Hook]
 
C#m
We’re all on a journey
B
Down the hall of memories
A                         F#m
Don’t worry bout what you ain’t got
A                          G#7
Leave with a little bit of dignity
C#m
Never loved what I had
B
Always felt like I deserved more
A                               F#m
But when I make it to the other side (make it to the other side)
A                               G#7
That’s when we’ll settle up the score
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
F#m
Yo, we did this in remembrance of
F#m
Faces from the past we no longer have an image of
A                       F#m
Carrying coldblooded hearts that never been for love
A                       G#7
Brothers keep going for theirs but never get enough
 
F#m
World travelers that seen it all and did enough
F#m
Only to return to learn the world wasn’t big enough
A                       F#m
Damn, how long has it been? I guess the jig is up
A                       G#7
Now all I know is I’m about to wake this n**** up
 
F#m
Yeah that hindsight, 20/20, now n****s dead on the money
F#m
Trying to take something from me it’s a wrap like a mummy
A                       F#m
Undun I am becoming and when he’s tired of running
A                       G#7
Through the layers of the onion
 
F#m
He’ll probably shed a tear cause they’ll be no more fast times
F#m
Just his weak mind scrolled out like a bad sign
A                       F#m
He never had enough and got confused when they asked why
A                       G#7
Life is only a moment in time and it passed by
 
 
[Hook]
 
C#m
We’re all on a journey
B
Down the hall of memories
A                         F#m
Don’t worry bout what you ain’t got
A                          G#7
Leave with a little bit of dignity
C#m
Never loved what I had
B
Always felt like I deserved more
A                               F#m
But when I make it to the other side (make it to the other side)
A                               G#7
That’s when we’ll settle up the score
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
F#m
I’m sitting on top of the world ready to jump off
F#m
Thinking of various ways to break a gun law
A                       F#m
Thinking that enough is enough but still I want more
A                       G#7
Thinking of how I’m playing with fire that burned my young boy
 
F#m
By any means necessary, don’t give a damn
F#m
So every night I’m on a flight that never lands
A                       F#m
Be an asshole when the shit hits the fan
A                       G#7
Or bet your life on a bluff and a bad hand
 
F#m
Can’t win, can’t lose Get 'em gassed
F#m
leave em leaking fuel either way the market moves
A                       F#m
Cash rules kings, queens, prince and princess
A                       G#7
Every night I’m crossing a line that ain’t the finish
 
F#m
Every thought is dark as a glass of fucking Guinness
F#m
Too far gone to come back to my senses
A                       F#m
Now I’m on the edge of my bed making love to my meds
A                       G#7
Every moment's like a pistol to my head when I’m getting mine

A                         F#m

B
Always felt like I deserved more
A                               F#m
But when I make it to the other side (make it to the other side)
A                               G#7
That’s when we’ll settle up the score
