G7 C7 G7 I got something I wanna tell all the young peoples
G7 I got a message for you
C7 I just thought that I would take my time
G7 And rap what you thought of me [Verse 2]
G7 There's a lot of things I wanna say
D7 But I won't be able to say all
C7 But I can say a little bit
G7 C7 I wan't you to know
G7 D7 This comes from the bottom of my heart [Verse 3]
G7 There's so much confusion
C7 Misunderstanding
G7 Just plain bad rapping

C7 Be an old woman
G7 C7 G C7 And be an old man [Interlude]
