Verse 2: Em My better half is mad at making magic out of canned goods My tax bracket status her questionin' my manhood Am My shorty got caught smoking weed at a concert And if I smack em everybody treats me like a monster Em My neighbors ain't doin' much better And we making competition instead of stickin' together Am Can't save no nest egg, in fact this nest is rented In fact that rent is late, wait Em The money ain't here the raise ain't comin' Just me and my son and that crazy woman Am And those bartenders this whole fuckin' country Got everybody swallowin' that lunch meat Em Maybe we can speed up the process Kill me in my thirties in the name of progress Am Put me in the dirt and then change the topic Some time it seems like the only way to stop it Em Contemplate my departure date Doesn't take a lot to get a lot of us to talk this way Am Take a shot at me that's all I'm obligated for Apparently my only guarantee is a walk away Em Am The only guarantee in life is a life worth dyin' for Em Cause death don't wait for no one Am Sittin' on your front door Em Am The only guarantee in life is a life worth dyin' for Em Cause death don't wait for no one Am Sittin' on your front door Outro: A|--2-2-0-2---------------0-2-0-| E|---------3-0-----0-0-0-3------| C|------------------------------| G|------------------------------| (humming along) x1
