Under the storm - The la Fontaines
N.C. means to clapp hands

Chorus:
N.C.
Its complicated, up to my knees in it
N.C.
And I pray please kill it, but it won’t go
N.C.
So frustrated, I fell asleep dreaming
N.C.                     A minorAm
Just as the clouds clear, I wake up under the storm
FF    G#G#   A minorAm  FF   G#G#  G# minorG#m

Verse 1:
      A augmentedA
It’s blood red, the streets run with no cause
A augmentedA
Quick dash for quick cash, no pause
A augmentedA
Round here, find a little rope
E MajorE                      A augmentedA
Throw it in the sky, you can catch a little hope
A augmentedA
And that’s real in effect
A augmentedA
Because that money seems to make a man, feel some respect
A augmentedA
So tell me who’s spreading the butter?
      FF                        A augmentedA
Because I’m trying to make bread, but I’m stuck in the gutter
A augmentedA
But they say its just a matter of time
A augmentedA
Every Friday morning, about a quarter to nine
A augmentedA
When I’m, standing in line, bide my time
  E MajorE
For that, one job, that their claiming is mine
  A augmentedA
And if it don’t come, then I’ll say that its fine
D MajorD             A augmentedA
Knowing that it’s straight back, to just writing this rhyme
A augmentedA
No change in my pocket, not a penny or dime
    FF
Just a fucked up economy, declining with time

Chorus:
  A augmentedA  N.C
Its complicated, up to my knees in it
N.C
And I pray please kill it, but it won’t go
A augmentedA    N.C
So frustrated, I fell asleep dreaming
N.C                      A minorAm
Just as the clouds clear, I wake up under the storm

Verse 2:
  A augmentedA
We built this from nothing, tell me I’m wrong
A augmentedA
You get showered with it, under the storm
A augmentedA
We fight for this war, understand the cause
 E MajorE
Rewrite the whole chapter, and change the laws
      A augmentedA
So let the battle proceed, the greed we can’t stand
A augmentedA
Fuck your plan, I’m a one man band
A augmentedA
I don’t need shit, not one mans hand
  FF
If life is a beach, I’ll dance in the sand
A augmentedA
Lets make it clear, believe that I can man
A augmentedA
Any beat or verse, I will rip it while I handstand
A augmentedA
Chain me up, or shackle and beat
    E MajorE
I don’t fall with the weak, I march on my feet
      A augmentedA
Never tell tall tails, when I’m screaming on a beat
A augmentedA
So I’m aiming for the charts, but they feel it in the street
A augmentedA                   D MajorD
Same reason that they see me and they beep
              FF
When there cruzin’ in their jeep or there running in their fleet

Chorus:
  A augmentedA  N.C
Its complicated, up to my knees in it
N.C
And I pray please kill it, but it won’t go

Just as the clouds clear, I wake up under the storm

We were bred for this war, shackled and beat

Watched the weak fall, we arose to our feet
        E MajorE   D MajorD
Entertained the crowd, dominated the stage
       C majorC         E MajorE
In truth, we ain’t nothing but puppets in a cage
A augmentedA       G+G
Dignity gone, self respect lost

We mast flags on land we found

Under siege, the Calvary pulls near

But we stand tall, to guard our crown
