Believe What I Say

Am               Gm
(wooh, wooh-wooh wooh) yo, my men and my women
Am               Gm
(wooh, wooh-wooh wooh) yo, my men and my women


[Verse 1]
Am                              Gm
  You need somethin' unexpected, some form of weapon
Am                              Gm
  You ask him to feel protected, and still feel protected
Am                              Gm
  Just one time for the record,    just one time for the record
Am                              Gm
  Don't agree with the message,   don't agree with the methods


[Chorus]
Am                           Gm                 Am
   Don't let, don't let the lifestyle drag you down
                       Gm                     Am
Who knows when was the last time you felt the love
         Gm                       Am
One last sparkle to follow in my light
            Gm
One last sparkle to follow


[Verse 2]
Bb                    Am  Gm                      C
  Man, it's too early        What the hell you do wakin' me up at 5:30?
Bb                           Am  Bb                        N.C.
Why the hell are you worried?       Play somethin' that is very, very vibe-worthy
Am                                 Gm
I don't know want my mind alerting,  people sayin' tweetin' gonna make you die early
Am                                 Gm
How 'bout have my heart hurtin'?      Hold it all inside, that could make you die early
Am                                 Gm
Go on and get your best attorney      Something's there, feel it when I heard it
Am                                              Gm
  Just release the spirit, let it flow though   How these **** leaving now with one leg like 
Flo-Jo?
Am                                               Gm
Nail me to the cross with long nails, like Coco  Free Throat Coat for the throat goats
Am                                    Gm
Even if I gotta do it solo, even if I gotta do it with no promo
Am                                    Gm
  I ain't got my point across 'til we finally get across and pass the point
     Am                                                  Gm
So there's a couple things that I gotta quote    Don't involve yourself in things you don't have
 to know
        Am                                                  Gm
I ain't never question what you was askin' for   I gave you every single thing you was askin' 
for
        Am                                                  Gm
I don't understand how anybody could ask for more    Got a list of even more, I just laugh it 
off
     Am                                              Gm
I be goin' through things I had to wrote   Celebrity drama that only Brad'll know
         Am                                      Gm
Too many family secrets, somebody passin' notes  Things I cried about, I found laughable
Am                                             Gm
Lil' baby Jesus, ain't laughing, no   Don't involve yourself in things they ain't have to know
    Am                                             Gm
The big man upstairs ain't laughin', no   Don't involve yourself in things they ain't have to 
know


[Bridge] (Buju Banton)
    Bb          Am     Gm             C
Now here we are,   you know I'm not about it
Bb             Am     Bb
Showed you my all   I let you into my thoughts


[Chorus]
Am                           Gm                 Am
   Don't let, don't let the lifestyle drag you down
                       Gm                     Am
Who knows when was the last time you felt the love
         Gm                       Am
One last sparkle to follow in my light
            Gm
One last sparkle to follow
   Am               Gm
In love,  one last sparkle to follow in my light
Am          Gm
  One last sparkle to follow


[Interlude] (Buju Banton)
Bb             Am                   Gm                          C
Okay, I didn't throw a fit when you said you wanted to leave, I told you I loved you,
Bb                       Am  Bb
  but you didn't believe,    You were too easily fooled,
   Am                       Gm
so easily deceived, by some dude who's more rather into greed
Am                        Gm
  Played by your emotions, you were swamped by your needs
Am                               Gm
  Told me, I didn't believe, you said I was out to deceive, ahaha
                Am           Gm
You said that I lie, how did I?
           Am                 Gm
I told you everything, didn't I?
                           Am                 Gm
But you just could not believe, man, I'm so peeved
                             Am                    Gm
Your friends all up in your head even when we're in bed
            Am                         Gm
Your mind's elsewhere, and you say you care? Haha
     Am                                 Gm
I'm laughin' at you all, you think you got me? No, no
   N.C.
My back ain't against the wall (The wall, the wall, the wall, the wall, the wall)


[Chorus]
Am                           Gm                 Am
   Don't let, don't let the lifestyle drag you down
                       Gm                     Am
Who knows when was the last time you felt the love
         Gm                       Am
One last sparkle to follow in my light
            Gm
One last sparkle to follow
