The Apple

Bb           Ab                                             Ebm                  Db
I'm a little nutty and I know it but if you go back and take a look at my history
         Ebm                        Bbm                           Ab                 Bbm
You will see that I am not the only one who's off his rocker, there were many before me
                               Db                              Ebm              Db
I was always labeled the black sheep of the family, what a bad seed I'd grow to be
           Ebm                          F#m                  Ab                    Am
But if you take a look at us now you'll see the apple didn't fall too far from the tree

[Interlude]
F             Am                                      F
  Alright look,  I'mma tell you the story from my side
                         Am
  Maybe you'll understand, check it out

[Verse 1]
                                 F
You done witnessed unexplainable shit
                                            Am
Too insane to explain, people run from what they just don't get
                             F
Maybe Shady should have just hit 'em with a little bit
                              Am
Did I spit too soon? Should I have spoon fed 'em it?
                           F
But I was just so eager to prove I was even
                        Am
Worth bein' in the same league or the room of the people of whom I was in
                                         F
Every now and then, I look up like I was seekin' approval, was it because of the pigment of my 
skin?
                          Am
Or was it a figment of my imagination?
                          F
Maybe it bothered me more than it did them
                      Am
Maybe it wasn't a big deal back then
                      F
But to me it was, see what it was
                                   Am
Was I had developed a complex from being judged
                                    F#m
Proof spit his verse, now I'm next, let's see who balks
                                     Am
I'm in the booth staring back to see whose mugs
                       F
I get a reaction from, usually the first thumb
                                   Am
Was from Proof and the rest of the crew backed him up
                                     F
And no one lied to each other 'cause none of us had deals
                            Am
It was real, we just wanted tickets for that meal

[Chorus]
Continues after the ad
                           Dm
Sometimes I feel like it's just me
                                  F
Sometimes I'm feel like I'm goin' crazy
                         Am
But take a look at my family,'Cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree
                                  Dm
I said sometimes I feel like it's just me
                                  F
Sometimes I'm feel like I'm goin' crazy
                         Am                         Am
But take a look at my family,'Cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree

[Verse 2]
                     F
Ever since my mother was pregnant with a second egg
           Am
'Cause she said that I had a baby sister
                   F
Who fell outta the window, I was too young to remember
            Am
Kansas City projects, I was like 5-6
              F
And how come, I remember Malcolm, Isaac, and Boogy
      Am
If it was the projects in Missouri?
                          F
'Cause those were my best friends until Isaac
                        Am
Took my tricycle and my Uncle Todd went to try to go get it back
    F
And ended up gettin' jumped and cut in the gut
       Am
With a switch and 70 some stitches
          F
Which is, to this day, why my mother still tries to show me
     Am
Some old fake pictures
                              F
Of a fictitious little sister who never existed
                Am
And this is why part of my life's so twisted
                      F
But I can never be as sick as that bitch is
                     Am
And by the way, that pictures one of my relatives

[Chorus]
                           Dm
Sometimes I feel like it's just me
                                  F
Sometimes I'm feel like I'm goin' crazy
                         Am
But take a look at my family,'Cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree
                                  Dm
I said sometimes I feel like it's just me
                                  F
Sometimes I'm feel like I'm goin' crazy
    F                                               Am
But take a look at my family,'Cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree

[Verse 3]
                     F
You probably have to peel back layers upon layers of pain
   Am
To see why everything I say is so insane
F
What's different about my brain
               Am
That separates me, from other players in this game
                  F
On the surface it may seem like a scheme
                            Am
Or some sort of scam for me to get some damn sympathy
                    F
But that's the last thing I need
                                     Am
Is for people to walk around feelin' sorry for me
                  F
And I am not a G, never claimed to be
                  F
I gave my vest to Cashis, just hope he don't need it more than me
                F
But we'll see, 'cause we ain't lookin' for beef
                                   Am
But if it comes our way, what do we turn the other cheek? Come on

[Chorus]
                           Dm
Sometimes I feel like it's just me
                                  Am
Sometimes I'm feel like I'm goin' crazy
                         Dm                                  Am
But take a look at my family,'Cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree
                                  Dm
I said sometimes I feel like it's just me
                            Am
Sometimes I'm feel like I'm goin' crazy
                      F#m                                    Am
But take a look at my family,'Cause the apple don't fall too far from the tree

    F             Am              F
Yeah, and I'm the crazy one right?
                      Am              F    Am    F
Whatever, then let me be the crazy one
              Am      F    Am    F    Am    F    Am
