Hey, this is the story of a youngin dreamin'

The streets got meaner, the hoes got growner

        F#                         B
If you black, they sending you to jail or to Iraq
      G#m                             C#m
Old buddy that we hoop with, with the bad chick and a fly 'lac
      F#                          B
And a gold chain? Caught him on the Merc, tryna buy crack
G#m                  C#m                     F#
Damn homie! Shit, in high school you was the man homie
     B

 G#m                 F#
Used to beat niggas down at the buses after school
        F#                            B
Now you looking like a motherfucking fool
 
 
[Chorus]
                             G#m

I gotta leave, I wish I could stay
            F#                     B
But I’ll be home for the holidays
       G#m                   C#m
And to those that I used to know
                            F#

                    B
Come lets get this bread up
              G#m                 C#m

                G#m            C#m
Hey, this is a story bout some puppy love
           F#                                B
But at the time boy, I was feeling like this must be love
         G#m                       C#m

              C#m

 F#                     B
Got a little knowledge now I’m following the politics
G#m              C#m
But I still gotta holla at my old chick
F#                  B
So sweet, so thick, girl pick up your phone, it’s me
G#m                               C#m
She said “what, we ain't homies no more”
           F#                                B
You go to college now you act like you don’t know me no more

Girl please, we got history, semester seem so long
    F#                       B

 G#m           C#m
So if history repeats itself
           F#                                  B
When I get home, girl it's on, you ain't gon' need ya belt
              G#m                              C#m
Or your pants or your drawers, then we hit the rewind
                  F#                  B
Just don’t give it up in the meantime

Trying to get laid so I gotta stay fly
      F#                              B
But a nigga hella shy you would have thought that's where the Bulls play
G#m                       C#m
Was just a freshman could used a little Kool-aid (cool aid)
F#                              B
Crushing on them upper classmen but it was too late
G#m                            C#m
Buddy she was dating, yeah, he had the freshest shoes
       F#                      B

G#m                       C#m
Ay maybe this ain't for me
                     F#                             B
Only if I could be LeBron and go straight to league
                          G#m                              C#m
The worst part of growing up man: shit just ain't for free
                   F#                     B

                           G#m                          C#m
And maybe I should move up out here to the place to be
                        F#                       B
To get from A to Z, aye what you think I'm crazy
                           G#m                   C#m
