Otherside Ryan Lewis Remix - Ver 2

(Fences) Em G Oh girl, this boat is sinking D Em There's no sea left for me Em G And how the sky gets heavy D When you are underneath it! G D Oh, I want to sail away from here. G Bm And God, He came down (down down down down down down down) G And said (down down down down down down down down) Bm Nothing (down down down down down down down down) Em He rolled up, asked him what he was sippin' on G He said lean, You want to hit it, dawg? D That's the same stuff Weezy's sippin', huh? Em And tons of other rappers that be spittin' hard Em Yup, yup, five a bone G When he passed him that styrofoam D the Easter pink, heard it in a rhyme before, D finally got to see what all the hype was on Em And then he took a sip, sittin' in the Lincoln G thinkin' he was pimpin' as he listen to the system D Em Little did he know that it was just as addictive as bass, Not the kind of hit from the kick drum Em Hot box, let the bass bump Em Take it to the face, D/F# gulp, months later the use went up D/F# Em Every blunt was accompanied by the pink stuff But Goddamn he loved that feelin' Em Purple rain coated in the throat D/F# Just so healin', medicine alleviate the sickness D/F# Liquid affix and it comes with a cost Em Wake up, cold sweat, scratchin', itchin' G Trying to escape the skin that barely fit him D Em Gone, get another bottle just to get a couple swallows Em Headed towards the bottom couldn't get off it Didn't even think he had a problem G D Though he couldn't sleep without gettin' nauseous D Room spinnin', thinkin' he might've sipped just a Em Little bit too much of that cough syrup His eyelids closed shut G Sat back in the chair clutchin' that cup D Girlfriend came and a couple hours later Em Said his name shook him but he never got up G He never got up, G Gmaj7 He never got up, Gmaj7 We live on the cusp of death G thinkin' that it won't be us G It won't be us, Gmaj7 it won't be us, Gmaj7 it won't be us, Nah, G it won't be us, (Fences) G Oh girl, this boat is sinking D Em There's no sea left for me Em G And how the sky gets heavy D When you are underneath it! G D Oh, I want to sail away from here. G Bm And God, He came down (down down down down down down down) G And said (down down down down down down down down) Bm Nothing (down down down down down down down down) Em Now he just wanted to act like them G He just wanted to rap like him D Em Us as rappers underestimate the power and the effects that we have on these kids Em Blunt passed, ash in a tin, G pack being pushed, harassed by the feds D D The fact of it is most people that rap like this talkin' about some shit they haven't lived Em Surprise, you know the drill G Trapped in a box, declined record sales D Em Follow the formula violence, drugs, and, s*x sells Em So we try to sound like someone else Em This is not Californication There's no way to glorify this pavement Gmaj7 Syrup, Percocet, and an eighth a day will leave you Gmaj7 broke, depressed, and emotionally vacant Em Despite how Lil Wayne lives Em It's not conducive to being creative Gmaj7 And I know 'cause he's my favorite Gmaj7 Em And I know 'cause I was off that same mix Em G Rationalize the shit that I'd try after I listen to dedication D Em But he's an alien, I'd sip that shit, pass out or play Playstation Em Months later I'm in the same place, G no music made, feeling like a failure D D And trust me it's not dope to be 25 and move back to your parent's basement Em G I've seen my people's dreams die I've seen what they can be denied D And "weeds not a drug" - that's denial D Groundhog Day life repeat each time Em I've seen Oxycontin take three lives G I grew up with them, we used to chief dimes D Em I've seen cocaine bring out the demons inside Cheatin' and lyin' Em Friendship cease, no peace in the mind G Stealin' and takin' anything to fix the pieces inside D Broken, hopeless, headed nowhere Em Only motivation for what the dealer's supplying C That rush, that drug, that dope C Those pills, that crumb, that roach Em Thinkin' I would never do that, Em not that drug, and growing up nobody ever does C Until you're stuck, C Bm Lookin' in the mirror like I can't believe what I've become Swore I was goin' to be someone Bm And growing up everyone always does C C We sell our dreams and our potential To escape through that buzz Bm Just keep me up, Bm keep me up, Hollywood here we come (Fences) Em G Oh girl, this boat is sinking D Em There's no sea left for me Em G And how the sky gets heavy D When you are underneath it! G D Oh, I want to sail away from here. G Bm And God, He came down (down down down down down down down) G And said (down down down down down down down down) Bm Nothing Em G D Em G D Em G Em
