[Verse]
D
I've lived my whole life, made mistakes from the get-go
G
Street kid from the start, right, no regrets though,
D
I do what I want, yeah, 'cause I said so,
G
No sleep for the weak, right? No, bet no.
D
Rollin' with the punk rockers I ain't lying,
G
Fake guns, fake bands fake punk, I ain't buying,
D
Hit the road all I know Rock and roll ain't dying about

Fifteen deep we hit the streets low ridin.

He was back, causing trouble time's they're a comin' round,
G
Oh no, let me go to another round,
D
Tuesday night is when the storm's gonna settle down,
G
Had a glance, circumstance don't cause, trouble bound,
D
She's the one, all alone, I come lookin',
G
Smoke and mirrors as I watch aw that girl was trippin',
D
It's no fun, lost again to have your heart broken,
G
Greed is from a world that is built on hustling.
