25 To Life

G#m   F#           E     G#m
  Too late for the other side
B           F#      E    G#m
Caught in a chase, 25 to life
G#m   F#           E     G#m
  Too late for the other side
B           F#      E    G#m
Caught in a chase, 25 to life
G#m   F#
  Too late
                             E
yeah, I can't keep (I can't keep)
                     G#m
chasing you (chasing you)
              E
I'm taking my life back
B           F#      E    G#m
Caught in a chase, 25 to life


[Verse 1]
        G#m                       
I don't think she understands the 
F#
sacrifices that I've made
E                       G#m
Maybe if this bitch had acted right 
I woulda stayed
           B                 F#
But I've already wasted over half my
 life, I woulda laid
         E                         
Down and died for you, I no longer 
G#m
cry for you, no more pain
          G#m                   F#
Bitch, you took me for granted, took
 my heart
                             E     
and ran it straight into the 
           G#m
planet, into the dirt

I can no longer stand it
       B                     F#
Now my respect, I demand it, I'ma 
take control of this relationship
  E                 G#m
command it and I'ma be the boss of 
you now, goddamn it
         G#m                   F#
And what I mean is that I will no 
longer let you control me
E                     G#m
So you better hear me out, this much
 you owe me
             B                     
I gave up my life for you, totally 
  F#
devoted to you I have stayed
         E                    G#m
Faithful all the way, this is how I 
fuckin' get repaid?
        G#m                     F#
Look at how I dress, fuckin' baggy 
sweats, go to work a mess
E                   G#m
Always in a rush to get back to you,
 I ain't heard you yet
    B                  F#
Not even once say you appreciate me,
 I deserve respect

E                      G#m
  I've done my best to give you 
nothin' less than perfectness
    G#m                  F#
And I know that if I end this I'll 
no longer have nothin' left
    E                           
But you keep treatin' me like a 
G#m
staircase: it's time to fuckin' step
B                       F#
  And I won't be comin' back, so 
don't hold your fuckin' breath
E                             G#m
You know what you've done, no need 
to go in-depth
                    G#m       
I told you you'd be sorry if I 
          F#
fuckin' left, I laughed while you 
wept
         E               G#m
How's it feel now? Yeah, funny, 
ain't it? You neglected me
B                 F#
  Did me a favor, though, my spirit 
free you've set
      E                        G#m
But a special place for you in my 
heart I have kept
            G#m
It's unfortunate, but it's…


[Chorus]
    F#           E     G#m
Too late for the other side
B           F#      E    G#m
Caught in a chase, 25 to life

(Yeah, can't take no more)
G#m   F#           E     G#m
  Too late for the other side
B           F#      E    G#m
Caught in a chase, 25 to life


[Verse 2]
                   G#m      
I feel like when I bend over 
                F#
backwards for you, all you do is 
laugh
                  E                
‘Cause that ain't good enough, you 
          G#m                   
expect me to fold myself in half 
        B
'til I snap
                F#
Don't think I'm loyal, all I do is 
rap
          E                        
How can I moonlight on the side? I 
G#m
have no life outside of that
        G#m                   F#
Don't I give you enough of my time? 
You don't think so, do you?
        E                          
Jealous when I spend time with the 
G#m
girls, why I'm married to you still?
     B                   F#
Man, I don't know, but tonight I'm 
serving you with papers
      E                      G#m
I'm divorcing you – go marry someone
 else and make 'em famous!
    G#m                     F#
And take away their freedom like you
 did to me
                         E       
Treat 'em like you don't need 'em 
                G#m
and they ain't worthy of you
                  B                
Feed 'em the same shit that you 
        F#
made me eat, I'm moving on, forget 
you
    E                        G#m
Oh, now I'm special? I ain't feel 
special when I was with you
      G#m               
All I ever felt was this 
 F#
helplessness,
                E                  
imprisoned by a selfish bitch, chew
    G#m
 me up and spit me out, I fell for 
this
   B                         F#
So many times it's ridiculous, and 
still I stick with this, I'm sick of
 this
E                    G#m         
  But in my sickness and 
                            G#m
addiction, you're addictive as they 
get
             F#
Evil as they come, vindictive as 
they make 'em
E                         G#m
My friends keep askin' me why I 
can't just walk away from
     B                    F#
I'm addicted to the pain, the 
stress, the drama, I'm drawn to
        E              G#m
Shit, I guess I'm a mess, cursed and
 blessed, but this time I
G#m                         
  Ain't changin' my mind, I'm 
  F#
climbin' out this abyss
       E                           
You're screamin' as I walk out that
 G#m
 I'll be missed
                             B  
But when you spoke of people who 
                   F#
meant the most to you, you left me 
off your list
          E                    G#m
Fuck you, hip hop! I'm leavin' you, 
my life sentence is served, bitch
    G#m
And it's just...


[Chorus]
    F#           E     G#m
Too late for the other side
B           F#      E    G#m
Caught in a chase, 25 to life

(I'm gone, man)
G#m   F#           E     G#m
  Too late for the other side
B           F#      E    G#m
Caught in a chase, 25 to life
G#m   F#    E  G#m
  Too late
B           F#      E    G#m
Caught in a chase, 25 to life
