Intro

[Part I]

Verse 1:
   Bbmaj7                Am9
A spaceship lands on Mars
                Bbmaj7
Halfway to the stars
                Am9
Halfway to the stars (Halfway to the—)
  Bbmaj7                Am9
I wanna be where you are
                       Bbmaj7
It seems we're worlds apart
                       Am9
It seems we're worlds apart (We're worlds apart)

Chorus:
Bbmaj7                       Am9
Once in a while, I'll feel myself
Bbmaj7                    Am9
Driftin' off to somewhere else
Bbmaj7                Am9
Floatin' past Orion's Belt
 Bbmaj7                          Am9
Still, there's something I can't help


Post-Chorus:
Gm7                  Am9
We were in a world before (I know we was— I know we was together in another
life)
  Bbmaj7                   Am9
Together, and of that, I'm sure (It's the only way I can rеally explain how I
 feel inside)
   Gm7                    Am9
As sure as onе could ever be (It's like, no matter how bad I wanna go, I—)
Bbmaj7                     Am9                      D9
That explains your hold on me (I find a way to stay)


Bridge:
Gmaj7
Magnets (It's been like that)
Em9
Magnets (Maybe it'll always be like that)
Gmaj7
Magnets (I don't know)
Em9
Magnets
Cmaj7
Magnets
    Ebmaj7    Gmaj7
I'm pulled to you
Em9   Gmaj7          Em9
 Love, gravitational, somethin' cosmic
Gmaj7           Em9
 Universal, metaphysical, can't see it (Oh)
       Cmaj7
Always present, just feel it
    Ebmaj7
I'm pulled to you

Gadd9                  Gbm7
Never in my life did I think I'd see the day (The day)
     Bm                        Bm7/A
That niggas wanna play with my name, but okay
               Gadd9                                     Gbm7
I'm goin' back in (Who's goin' back in), I'm goin' back in (Who's goin' back
 in)
               Bm                                    Bm7/A
Let me go back in (Let him go back in), I'ma go back in (He's goin' back in),
 I'ma go in


Chorus:
Gadd9                       Gbm7
 Let me go in, let me go in, let me go in, let me go– (Boom-boom)
Bm                          Bm7/A
 Let me go in, let me go in, let me go in, let me go– (Boom-boom)
Gadd9                       Gbm7
 Let me go in, let me go in, let me go in, let me go– (Boom-boom)
Bm                               Bm7/A
 When niggas act like they don't know, you gotta show 'em (You gotta)


Verse:
    Gadd9
I'm pleased to report, after many attempts
          Gbm7
I climbed out from the mouth of the gritty abyss
    Bm                                           Bm7/A
The antonym of idiot, who witty as this? My mind frame has been trained with
Nvidia chips
   Gadd9
My rhymes are like shrines for the city I miss
          Gbm7
Where, in time, I found beauty in the hideousness
   Bm                                       Bm7/A
My tongue can set fire to some, inspire the young or put a hickey on the
titty of the prettiest bitch
Gadd9
 I'm number one, you gettin' the gist?
   Gbm7
Anything lower, you better reconsider your list
        Bm                                             Bm7/A
Play my song when I'm gone, I'ma still be a myth, even God gon' wonder, "How
the fuck did he exist "
       Gadd9
I mean, could he have just slipped through the cracks?
            Gbm7
Ain't let a nigga into Heaven, so I went through the back
          Bm
And when I entered, I saw an old friend that I dapped
          N.C.
He said, "Please, nigga, kick one of the infinite raps"
        Gadd9
Okay, I flip on tracks long as the beat is on fire
   Gbm7
My grip on rap stronger than needle-nose pliers
   Bm                                          Bm7/A
So kick on back and enjoy the fresh sound, the best round of Black gettin'
rich off rap
             Gadd9
I'm from the town where they zip raw packs
                    Gbm7
We never seen trampoline, but a brick, you could flip off that
           Bm                                                     Bm7/A
Well, damn, try to compete, but they just fall flat, lot of these weak niggas
 peak where I lift off at
       Gadd9
I never trick off racks, I stack what I attract
    Gbm7
The money talks to me and they lack the dialect to
Bm                                   Bm7/A
 Reply back as I crack the fire axe, light refracts when the half-Black
messiah raps, uh
Gadd9
 Fayettenam, where they strapped like Iraq
    Gbm7
The narcs in the trap with a knack to hire rats
  Bm
A man's dead 'cause the feds slapped a wiretap
    N.C.
His dog had his back, so they whacked the chiroprac'
Gadd9
Chemically imbalanced, drippin' style in gallons
Gbm7
I write schemes in my dreams just for the challenge
Bm                                            Bm7/A
Woke up in ice-cold sweats 'cause the flows I chose next, are like both sets
of Bowflex, uh
Gadd9
 Hold your breath for the prose I profess
Gbm7
Cole the GOAT, fresh like a juice that's cold-pressed
   Bm                                        Bm7/A
No rest to those who oppose, I don't stress, rap niggas gotta be in Vogue to
pose threats, uh
Gadd9
 They don't compare, they're more like Kotex
    Gbm7
I'm droppin' niggas off at the door like coat checks
Bm                                                           Bm7/A
Hold check, I told you they ain't ready to hoop, them niggas regular, I'm 93
Unleaded, the truth
            Gadd9
Hot out the booth, now I'm lookin for my lil' Betty Boop, cute
Gbm7
Pardon me, shawty, I been out of the loop
         Bm
Too many lies to refute, but I gotta rebuke
           N.C.
They tryna put my neck inside of a noose, it's not happenin'


Outro:
Bm   Bm7/A   Gadd9   Gbm7
       (Boom-boom)      (Boom-boom)
Bm                     Bm7/A
Never in my life did I think I'd see the day (Boom-boom)
     Gadd9                     Gbm7
That niggas wanna play with my name, but okay (I'm goin' back in)
Bm
 The children that survive the lows and highs
    Bm7/A                           Gadd9                     Gbm7
The real will never die, we multiply (We multiply, we multiply, we multiply,
I'm goin' back in)
Bm
 The history you're told is mostly lies
Bm7/A                                             Gadd9
 You say you want the truth? Well, close your eyes (Close your eyes, close
         Gbm7
your eyes, close your eyes)
