[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Fadd9 F Em Em7 Em Em7 Em
Wonder, oh, why this ever had to be? (Uh-huh)
Fmaj7 Fadd9 F Em Em7 Em Em7 Em
So many losing hope, in those dreeeaaams that they—
[Verse 1]
Fmaj7
Walkin' past the homeless in a Rolex
Fadd9 F
Just got off the stage on the TODAY Show and I basically felt soulless
Em Em7
Years go by and I keep saying I'm gon' use my phone less
Em Em
But I should just be phone-less
Fmaj7
Ignorance is bliss and so is bein' underground
Fmaj7
'Cause it was fun when we were known less
Fadd9
Sorry, that's cliche, I know I'm so blessed
Em
But Jason keeps on tellin' me, "Say yes"
Em Em7
And truth be told, I know he knows best
Em
But I don't wanna do no press
Fmaj7
I've seen enough of me on this lil' screen
Fadd9
I've become so vain and insecure 'bout everything
F Em Em7
I feel all this pressure to live up to what they tell me I'm gon' be
Em
So I isolate myself, you can't help me, it's on me
Fmaj7
I'm hidin' any sign of weakness from my guys
Fadd9
I don't want 'em second-guessin' with me
Em
Nemo said to keep my foot on necks 'cause I can't let 'em just forget me
Em7 Em
But the brags in my raps are getting less and less convincing
(So I'd rather just)
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Fadd9 F Em Em7 Em Em7 Em
Wonder, oh, why this ever had to be? (Uh-huh)
Fmaj7 Fadd9 F Em Em7 Em Em7 Em
So many losing hope, in those dreeeaaams that they—
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7
I wrote that first verse in Denver back in September
Fadd9
It's January now and I'm feelin' like myself again
Em
I got Angel back in here, I need his help again
Em
I'm takin' time away but wonderin' what a healthy helping is
Fmaj7
Fuck it, they gon' check for me, I tell myself and tell my friends
Fadd9
Avoidin' any talks about the elephant
Em
Chalkin' up the hate to jealousy and just embellishments
Em
But deep down, I find myself wonderin'
Fmaj7
If the people that write about me are right about me
Fadd9 F Em
And I wonder if my exes are oversharin' 'cause they know a lot about me
Em
I'm a long way from Shelby County
Em
I been through some local tension, heard talks of a healthy bounty
Fmaj7
Sober and focused, I cannot walk down no deli alleys
Fadd9 F
I still got the fellas 'round me, I love 'em and tell 'em proudly
Em
My mama needs help adjusting, my father needs help accounting
Em
I'm lookin' out heaven's window, I know that there's hell around me and—
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Fadd9 F Em Em7 Em Em7 Em
Wonder, oh, why this ever had to be? (Uh-huh)
Fmaj7 Fadd9 F Em Em7 Em Em7 Em
So many losing hope, in those dreeeaaams that they—
