I need love
G
You need love
G
Give me love
G (or C)
And I'll give you my love
G C Em C x2
[Verse]
G
They say thirty is the new twenty
C
And twenty is the new thirty shit I guess, makes sense
Em
cause fifteen year olds seem twenty
C
And twenty five year olds seem ten
G
I used to drink away my paycheck
C
Celebrate the mistakes I hadn't made yet
Em
Our generation isn't the best on safe sex
C
We forget the latex, becoming Planned Parenthood patients
G
Synthetic heroin is the new basshead
C
So much to escape, fuck a straight edge
Em
Walk around looking through a fake lens
C
Apps this good, whose got time to make friends?
G
I wish I didn't care
C
Acynical hispters with long hair. Cocaine
Em
problems, like my music
C
It's not my issue, I can't solve it, yeah
[Hook]
GC
Say my flight has finally landed down and the
EmC
ground has stopped moving all around
GC
Eyes open, awake for the very first
EmC
time We both forfeit this game of crime
[Verse]
G
They say it's so refreshing to hear somebody on records
C
No guns, no drugs, no sex, just truth
Em
The guns that's America, the drugs are what they gave to us
C
And sex sells itself, don't judge her 'til it's you
G
Ah, I'm not more or less cautious
C
The rappers rappin' 'bout them strippers up on the pole, copping
Em
These interviews are obnoxious
C
Saying that it's poetry is so well spoken, stop it
G
I grew up during Reaganomics
C
When Ice T was out there on his killing cops shit
Em
Or Rodney King was getting beat on and they let off every single officer
C
And Los Angeles went and lost it
G
Now every month there is a new Rodney on Youtube
C
It's just something our generation is used to
Em
And neighbourhoods where you never see a news crew
C
Unless they're gentrifying, white people don't even cruise through
G
And my subconcious telling me stop it
C
This is an issue that you shouldn't get involved in
Em
Don't even tweet, R.I.P Trayvon Martin
C
Don't wanna be that white dude, million man marchin'
G
Fighting for our freedom that my people stole
C
Don't wanna make all my white fans uncomfortable
Em
But you don't even have a fuckin' song for radio
C
Why you out here talkin race, tryin' to save the fuckin' globe
G
Don't get involved with the causes in mind
C
White privilege, white guilt, at the same damn time
Em
So we just party like it's nineteen ninty nine
C
Celebrate the ignorance while these kids keep dying
[Hook]
GC
My flight has finally landed down and the
EmC
ground has stopped moving all around
GC
Eyes open, awake for the very first
EmC
time We both forfeit this game of crime
