Intro:

Am  Em, G/D  C, Gadd9  D, Cadd9 (x3)

Verse 1:

(n.C) Come on, come on,
Am Em Dsus4I see no changes; wake up in the morning and I ask my-self;
Csus2 G"Is life worth living? Should I blast my-self?"
D CI'm tired of bein' poor and even worse I'm black.
AmMy stomach hurts, so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch.
Em Dsus4Cops give a damn a-bout a ne-gro?
Csus2 GPull the trigger, kill a nigga, he's a he-ro.
D CGive the crack to the kids; who the Hell cares?
One less hungry mouth on the welfare.
Am Em First ship 'em dope and let 'em deal to brothers,
Dsus4 Csus2 Give 'em guns, step back, and watch 'em kill each other.
G D C "It's time to fight back", that's what Huey said;
Two shots in the dark, now Huey's dead.
Am Em Dsus4 I got love for my brother, but we can never go nowhere,
Csus2Unless we share with each other.
G D We gotta start makin' changes;
C AmLearn to see me as a brother 'stead of two distant strangers.
EmAnd that's how it's supposed to be;
Dsus4 Csus2How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me?
G D Csus2 I'd love to go back to when we played as kids,
But things changed, and that's the way it is. Chorus 1:
G Fmaj7 C Come on, come on, that's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Things'll never be the same.
G Fmaj7 C That's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Ah, yeah.
G Fmaj7 C That's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Things'll never be the same.
G Fmaj7 C That's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Ah, yeah.
Verse 2:
Am EmI see no changes; all I see is racist faces,
Dsus4 Csus2 G Misplaced hate makes dis-grace to races we under.
D CI wonder what it takes to make this one better place;
Let's erase the wasted.
Am Em Dsus4 Take the evil out the people; they'll be acting right,
Csus2 G'Cos both black and white are smokin' crack to-night.
D CAnd only time we chill is when we kill each other;
It takes skill to be real; time to heal each other.
Am Em And although it seems Heaven sent,
Dsus4 Csus2We ain't ready to see a black President, uh.
G D It ain't a secret; don't con-ceal the fact;
CThe peni-tentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks.
Am Em But some things will never change;
Dsus4 Csus2Try to show another way, but they stayin' in the dope game.
G D Now tell me what's a mother to do?
CBein' real don't appeal to the brother in you.
Am Em You gotta operate the easy way;
Dsus4 Csus2 G"I made a G today", but you made it in a sleazy way.
D CSellin' crack to the kids; "I gotta get paid",
Well, hey, well that's the way it is. Chorus 2:
G Fmaj7 C Come on, come on, that's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Things'll never be the same.
G Fmaj7 C That's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Ah, yeah.
G Fmaj7 C That's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Things'll never be the same.
G Fmaj7 C That's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Ah, yeah.
Verse 3:
Am EmWe gotta make a change;
D C Gsus4 It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
D CLet's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live,
Am Em And let's change the way we treat each other.
D C You see the old way wasn't working,
Gsus4 D CSo it's on us to do what we gotta do to sur-vive.
Am EmAnd still I see no changes; can't a brother get a little peace?
Dsus4 Csus2 GThere's war on the streets and the war in the Middle East.
DInstead of war on poverty,
CThey got a war on drugs so the police can bother me.
Am Em Dsus4 And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do,
Csus2 GBut now I'm back with the facts, givin' 'em back to you.
D CDon't let 'em jack you up, back you up,
Crack you up and pimp smack you up.
Am Em You gotta learn to hold ya own;
Dsus4 Csus2They get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone.
G DBut tell the cops they can't touch this;
CI don't trust this, when they try to rush, I bust this.
Am Em That's the sound of my tool;
Dsus4 Csus2You say it ain't cool, but mama didn't raise no fool.
G D And as long as I stay black,
CI gotta stay strapped and I never get to lay back.
Am Em Dsus4 'Cos I always got to worry 'bout the pay-back,
Csus2 GSome buck that I roughed up way back,
DComin' back after all these years.
CRat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat! That's the way it is, uh.
Chorus 3:
G Fmaj7 C Come on, come on, that's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Things'll never be the same.
G Fmaj7 C That's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Ah, yeah.
G Fmaj7 C That's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Things'll never be the same.
G Fmaj7 C That's just the way it is,
G Fmaj7 C Ah, yeah.
