      D#     E          D#
Yeah, Howdy, How's your mammy now
G#m       D#m    Em              
Told 'em, Waylon and Willie, And the
D#
 boys

[Verse]

     G#m                           
It's Totem Pole I'm back again, 
  D#m
back and forth I've been battling
E                                
Middle finger's high in the sky, 
D#
fuck the establishment
  G#m                           D#
I pray every day that my vision is 
truly clear
        Em                         
Been to hell and back I brought 
        D#
this demon as a souvenir
          G#m                    
Cheers to everybody who has felt 
D#m
abandoned and tossed
          E                        
I finally found myself when I was 
      D#
in the land of the lost
      G#m                       
And I thought I told you one day 
          D#m
that the losers will win
                 C#m               
Nightmares ain't nothing new to me,
        D#
 Freddy Kruger's my friend
      G#m                   
Yeah, everybody loves it, my 
 D#m
attitude is fuck it
        E                        
Give me mine, I deserve my black 
D#
roses by the dozen
       G#m                       
Been a bad mother fucker since a 
D#
youngster ask my brothers
        E                          
I'm the guy you give the ball to 
      D#
win the game and beat the buzzer, 
Swish

New rap this slappin that's a fact 
I'm chosen
E                       D#
New casket white hearse a bunch of 
black roses
G#m                   D#m
White walls on the asphalt as it 
rolls in
C#m                      D#
Everybody dressed in all black like 
the road is
G#m                  D#m
Red roses die by the dozens, they 
turn black
     E                       
Bury brothers they got whack, 
          D#
couldn't make it out the trap
G#m                 D#           
Carry burdens of my past, always 
               C#m
took the wrong path
                    D#
Who you looking at, in the mirror 
looking back

G#m                           
Alarm clock is beepin' but them 
               D#m
killas ain't sleepin'
E                             D#
I heard my momma weepin' said I fell
 off in the deep end
D#m                            
Swimming with the sharks knife in my
D#m
 back is bleeding
        C#m                     D#
And the score is never even til one 
of us ain't breathin'
G#m                            
Leave it on the beat, the street 
       G#m      D#
will leave ya out here leaking
E                                 
Constantly try to reach 'em hard 
  D#
to teach 'em when they tweakin'
     G#m                      
They letting money block their 
        G#m    D#m
vision like a blindfold
         C#m                       
Lead the lambs to be slaughtered 
          D#
the enemies eatin' gyro
     G#m                           
Or a yeero, I'm looking round what 
D#m
happened to our heroes
E                     D#
Giving OG status over zeros, naw bro
   G#m                  D#m
So gimme my roses cuz I suppose that
 it's over
            E                   
You letting rats win the battles 
      D#
over soldiers, I'm sick of it
