[Intro instrumental beat, gradually gets more complex until the chorus]
[chorus]ch-ch-ch chip on my shoulder Underneath my vest
Feel it in my vertebrae
Feel it in my chest
Pumping and pumping and pumping Pumping its best
Give it A jump start and let me take the ch-ch-ch- chip off my shoulder (oh)
Cause I can't catch my breath(oh, oh)
Feels like a boulder(boulder)
On top of my chest (pressure)
Pumping and pumping and pumping Pumping its best
Give me a jump start and let me
get out this mess)(get out this mess)
[Rapped verse]
because when I left you kept Everything that was right (all right)
And All the problems that you left You left them to me (why me?)
And I came back With Nothing important (nothing)
Cuz For The longest time
You were my everything (oh,oh)
I forgot my investments(whoa)
Forgot I can sing(aah)
But when you're Down Real bad It's not like Any of Those things
Would bring happiness
Shit im living proof (yup)
I'm lucky to have my life
Cuz I almost gave that to you too(bitch)
Verse 2##
I was living in misery
squalor at best (blind)
Must have clouded my judgment Because I couldn't see a thing
Forgot What it meant To be happy(what's that?)
Forgot How my mama Used to call me a king
when I was down you took my crown and painted it pink(bitch)
laced with a venomous sting
the only thing I was Able to bring
The stories Of What we had And what we could have been.
Despite what I was convinced to think
you didn't take My Hope away from me
##bridge
(digging digging diggin,diggin deep
hearts been excavated now my problems in front of me.
center stage, its in the scene, I'm changing its polarity here's to
the positives pain can bring) [repeat bridge x2]
[chorus]ch-ch-ch chip on my shoulder Underneath my vest
Feel it in my vertebrae
Feel it in my chest
Pumping and pumping and pumping Pumping its best
Give it A jump start and let me take the ch-ch-ch- chip off my shoulder (oh)
Cause I can't catch my breath(oh, oh)
Feels like a boulder(boulder)
On top of my chest (pressure)
Pumping and pumping and pumping Pumping its best
Give me a jump start and let me
get out this mess)(get out this mess)
Life lessons flowing through me
turns out you never really knew me..
[Chorus x2]
