🎸 Chorus:
         A augmentedA        BB
Now you see me standin’ in the lights
       C# minorC#m     E MajorE
But you never saw my sacrifice
  G# minorG#m    A augmentedA     BB         C# minorC#m
Or all the nights I had to struggle to survive
G# minorG#m       A augmentedA       BB
Had to lose it all to win the fight
     C# minorC#m      E MajorE
I had to fall so many times
G# minorG#m A augmentedA       BB      C# minorC#m
Oh,  now I’m the last one standing

🎸 Verse 1:
        C# minorC#m
Uh, you weren’t with me on the cold block nights

Now you front row for the spotlight

Now the diamonds in the Audemar bright
G# minorG#m     BB
Just overseas for a far flight
 C# minorC#m
Young ☠☠☠☠* on ☠☠☠☠☠☠ and I ball on ’em, Bill Cartwright

You know I can shine through the darkness

I guess I always been a star type
   C# minorC#m
That lion in me made my heart fight, could’ve been a victim of an opp pipe
                                 G# minorG#m      BB
Took a million risks just to get to this ’cause we ain’t the ones that the cops like
    C# minorC#m
Been so many times God tested me, they only see the answers I got right

They commentin’ all on the blogs, tryna tell me how to live my life
A augmentedA                     BB
And I waited so patiently, if you could take off, don’t wait for me
  C# minorC#m
No days off, grind faithfully
     E MajorE
I keep thankin’ God for savin’ me
    A augmentedA
Front line, showcasin’ our bravery
       BB
I know that top spot, it was made for me
    C# minorC#m
It all paid off so we felt the struggle so painfully

🎸 Chorus:
A augmentedA        BB
Now you see me standin’ in the lights
       C# minorC#m     E MajorE
But you never saw my sacrifice
  G# minorG#m    A augmentedA     BB         C# minorC#m
Or all the nights I had to struggle to survive
G# minorG#m       A augmentedA       BB
Had to lose it all to win the fight
     C# minorC#m      E MajorE
I had to fall so many times

Oh,  now I’m the last one standing

🎸 Verse 2:
C# minorC#m
 Yeah, you know the code we gotta live by
                      G# minorG#m      BB
Nevermind all the ice cubes on this wrist wearin’ the big body
C# minorC#m
Live by the gun, get bodied or sell the time in that cell

It was hella times where I failed
              G# minorG#m
When I had to double back from them Ls
        A augmentedA
Bet he don’t double back when he tell
           BB
‘Cause it ain’t no comin’ back when you tell
        C# minorC#m            E MajorE
Why would you leave me here by myself? A augmentedA ☠☠☠☠* be lonely
G# minorG#m        A augmentedA                BB
Ayy, I blew the whole bag on they flights, ain’t leavin’ the homies
       C# minorC#m              E MajorE
If he really gang then get him a chain, no Cubans and Koneys
         A augmentedA
Why is arm in a
    BB
Stood firm, never foldin’
            C# minorC#m
Furthest thing from a rodent
          E MajorE
You put the jacket on and you bogus
   G# minorG#m        A augmentedA
Yeah, big dawg and they know it
          BB
I had to spin off to stay focused
        C# minorC#m
Longev’ on the motion

We don’t abandon ship when it’s hopeless, Side of the map and they know

🎸 Bridge:
        A augmentedA BB
I make it look easy
    C# minorC#m      E MajorE
Like I made it overnight
  G# minorG#m     A augmentedA BB
I make it look easy
    C# minorC#m
But you don’t see the dark side
  G# minorG#m     A augmentedA   BB     C# minorC#m
And all of the monsters I had to fight
   E MajorE     G# minorG#m A augmentedA    BB             C# minorC#m
And all of the nightmares, they made me stronger than life (Yeah)

🎸 Verse 3:
A augmentedA           BB
 Y’all say (What), I’ve changed (Huh)
                C# minorC#m
Really, though? (Tell me), how so? (I got)
                                A augmentedA
Got all (What), this bread (Yeah), I’m still (What), sour though (Huh)
           BB
I don’t know, I’m a square peg in a round hole (Yeah)
         C# minorC#m
Like a block of cheese in a paper towel roll

Rocky Balboa, never been no (What), towel thrower
A augmentedA
Even when I got kicked to the curb (Yeah)
BB
Life knocked my ☠☠☠☠ in the dirt
C# minorC#m
I got back up, flipped it the bird
    E MajorE
‘Til I earned the attention I yearned
    G# minorG#m    A augmentedA
Not to mention I learned
                     BB
How to turn resentment and hurt to an unquenchable thirst

In the simplest terms
   C# minorC#m              E MajorE
It’s revenge of the nerd, in every sense of the word
      G# minorG#m     A augmentedA
But all you see is the fame and the millions
      BB
You don’t see the strength and resilience (Nah)
        C# minorC#m              E MajorE
How I rack my brain but it feels as if I’m tryna explain it to children (Damn)
G# minorG#m        A augmentedA                   BB
So a lot of this pain isn’t healin’, you’re escapin’ at this angerous feeling
        C# minorC#m
Almost like recreatin’ a feelin’ of 9/11 when the second plane hit the building
      A augmentedA
So let ’em paint you the villain
       BB                   C# minorC#m
Some of this just may be a symptom (Yeah), of havin’ way too much income (Mm)
        E MajorE
But when you struggled every day just to get some (Yeah)
G# minorG#m       A augmentedA                      BB
Now all of this hate is a syndrome (Yuh), when they can’t relate and that stems from (What)
            C# minorC#m
Money lookin’ like it grows on trees

Yeah, they’re green but those aren’t leaves (Leaves)
  A augmentedA             BB
Sufficed to say, with every sacrifice I made
            C# minorC#m
It’s like I gave up my life to fame
            E MajorE
All the nights that I lied awake
     G# minorG#m      A augmentedA
Nights I stayed up to write and pray
        BB
Had to claw, scratch and fight my way
            C# minorC#m
Just follow me and I’ll light the way

Look to the hook of your sky, look grey (Skylar Grey)
   G# minorG#m   A augmentedA             BB
And rappers, how can we be on the same level now?
                   C# minorC#m
When I gotta look down and see these clowns that are on the ground
    E MajorE
☠☠☠☠*, I got the clouds beneath me
 G# minorG#m     A augmentedA                BB
Ever since I put out the EP at the height of 2003 me
                   C# minorC#m
You ain’t see the struggle to make it out the D MajorD
          E MajorE
Because I made it somehow look easy

🎸 Chorus:
         A augmentedA        BB
Now you see me standin’ in the lights
       C# minorC#m     E MajorE
But you never saw my sacrifice
  G# minorG#m    A augmentedA     BB         C# minorC#m
Or all the nights I had to struggle to survive
G# minorG#m       A augmentedA       BB
Had to lose it all to win the fight
     C# minorC#m      E MajorE
I had to fall so many times
G# minorG#m A augmentedA       BB      C# minorC#m
Oh,  now I’m the last one standing
G# minorG#m A augmentedA       BB      C# minorC#m
Oh,  now I’m the last one standing
