[Intro: Big Sean]
Uh-huh, is it time?
[Verse 1: Big Sean]
Look, I spent m[Gm]y whole l[Am]ife tryna im[A#]provise[Am]
I'm not s[Cm]aying that sht for you to sympathize
Spent my whole l[Gm]ife tryna f[Am]ind the l[A#]ight that's at the e[Am]nd of the tunnel
I should have re[Cm]alized it was inside
So lately [Gm]I been trying [Am]to get wh[A#]at's inside outside[Am]
So many p[Cm]eople wanna see my insides outside
I'm from that [Gm]city four h[Am]ours east[A#] of Southside[Am]
Where everyone [Cm]outside, but don't fk with no outsiders
[Gm]Going up, w[Am]ith the o[A#]nes I hold it down w[Am]ith
[Cm]Whole city got my back on some photobomb sht
[Gm]Whole city [Am]blowing u[A#]p on some old Saddam[Am] sht
[Cm]Before this I was the one hoes tried to go to prom with
[Refrain: Big Sean]
[Gm]You know, t[Am]ake the f[A#]ame, take the crib, [Am]take our cars
[Cm]Now we gotta take the train, hood niggas takin' chains
[Gm]Slave maste[Am]r take ou[A#]r names, 5-0 take th[Am]e shot
[Cm]And young souls take the blame, man but they can't take away
The light
[Hook: Jeremih & Big Sean]
[Gm]No matter h[Am]ow much t[A#]hey gon' shade you[Am]
[Cm]No, man they can't fk with the light
[Gm]They can't [Am]stop the [A#]shine[Am]
[Cm]They can't fk with the light
[Gm]Hell nah th[Am]e boy's t[A#]hat bright[Am]
[Cm]Even if you take away my life, you can't take the light
[Gm]No matter h[Am]ow much t[A#]hey gon' shade you[Am]
[Cm]
[Verse 2: Big Sean]
[Gm]Got the who[Am]le city o[A#]n fire[Am]
[Cm]Boy, this the flow that got Steph Curry inspired
[Gm]This the fl[Am]ow that g[A#]ot Lebron James finn[Am]a rewire
[Cm]This the flow that got my whole family finna retire
[Gm]Flows on fl[Am]ows, I mi[A#]ght drown in this b[Am]ch
[Cm]Ye found a pro, I guess I'm profound in this bch
[Gm]My dad from[Am] Louisian[A#]a, man the smallest [Am]town
[Cm]Where if they know you're brown, they might hold you down and even hose you down, man
[Gm]Since I'm h[Am]is son, I[A#] feel like I gotta s[Am]tunt hard
[Cm]I took the hand that they gave me and played the Donald Trump card
[Gm]And realize[Am]d countin[A#]g money never feel a[Am]s good as counting blessings
[Cm]And a loaded mind is more dangerous than a loaded weapon
[Refrain: Big Sean]
