BbFCDm
They used to tell me
BbF
I hope you learn to make it on your own
CDm
And if you love yourself just know you'll never be alone
BbF
I hope that you get everything you want and that you chose
CDm
I hope that it's the realest thing that you ever know
BbF
Hope you get the pretty girls, that's pretty and everything
CDm
Million dollar cribs havin' million dollar dreams
BbF
And when you get it all just remember one thing
C
Remember one thing
DmBbFC
That one man could change the world
DmBbFCDm
That one man could change the world
[Verse 1]
All I,
BbF
all I wanted was a hundred million dollars and a bad chick
CDm
Imagine this so much some nights it felt like that I had it
Bb
Back on the mattress
FC
Starin' at the ceilin' tryna to connect the dots
Dm
But its hard makin' those attachments
BbF
I'm talkin' dreamin' so hard, some nights it felt like draft day
CDm
You know? My -
BbF
my step brother used to flip them bags outside
the crib like it was trash day
CDm
No Kim K, but he bagged yay (Ye)
BbF
But when you're getting fast money, slow down, don't crash
CDm
With all the drive in the world, swear you still need gas
BbF
Look, think about it, close your eyes, dream about it
CDm
Tell your team about it, go make million dollar schemes about it
BbF
Success is on the way, I feel it in the distance
CDm
Used to look up at the stars and be like ain't too much that's different
BbF
I be shinin', they be shinin', get your one shot don't you miss it
CDm
What you know bout' wakin' up everyday like you on a mission?
[Chorus]
BbF
I hope you learn to make it on your own
CDm
And if you love yourself just know you'll never be alone
BbF
I hope that you get everything you want and that you chose
CDm
I hope that it's the realest thing that you ever know
BbF
Hope you get the pretty girls, that's pretty and everything
CDm
Million dollar cribs havin' million dollar dreams
BbF
And when you get it all just remember one thing
C
Remember one thing
DmBbFC
That one man could change the world
DmBbFCDm
That one man could change the world
[Verse 2]
Bb
My grandma told me if you write your name
F
in stone you'll never get the white out
CDm
I grinded out that black hole then performed up at the white house
BbF
Standin' next to Jim Carrey, we traded stories then laughed
CDm
I said you not the only one I know got rich wearin' masks
BbF
Where I'm from I swear they broke, they need way more than the cast
CDm
We need more than what you have And then we need more than that
Bb
But how am I supposed to say I'm tired
F
If that girl from West Virginia came up
CDm
in conditions that I couldn't survive
Bb
Went to war, came back alive
FC
On top of that became a female black captain
Dm
When being black you had to extra extra try
BbF
Way before James Brown made us proud
CDm
She bought a crib on the same street as Marvin Gaye
Right there on Outer Drive,
BbF
and she taught me how to drive
CDm
And she raised the kids, then the kids' kids, and she did it right
Bb
Taught me how to love, taught me not to cry
FC
When I die, I hope you teach me how to fly
Dm
All my life you've been that angel in disguise saying
[Chorus]
BbF
I hope you learn to make it on your own
CDm
And if you love yourself just know you'll never be alone
BbF
I hope that you get everything you want and that you chose
CDm
I hope that it's the realest thing that you ever know
BbF
Hope you get the pretty girls, that's pretty and everything
CDm
Million dollar cribs havin' million dollar dreams
BbF
And when you get it all just remember one thing
C
Remember one thing
DmBbFC
That one man can change the world
DmBbFCDm
That one man can change the world
*Thank you for callin' me, been thinkin' about me
*It's all good I love you grandma
*Bye...
