[Verse 1]
C
I used to have a dream I could buy my way to heaven
Cadd9
Even made a promise that I never would forget it
C Am Asus4
Dreams are kinda fuzzy after exiting my bed
Am Asus4
And now the only way to keep it locked up inside of my head
Am C
Is just to sing it over
Like the melody remembering the details
Cadd9 C
Like all the times when they had me working retail
Am Asus4 Am
And all the times where we got no love from females
Asus4
But now we're getting boxes like an email
Am C
They wanna figure out how this little sprout came to blossom
Cadd9 C
How it takes so long to figure out I'm fucking awesome
Am Asus4 Am
You be on the internet but never came across him
Asus4 Am C
Guess you weren't looking in the right place, the right place
Shout out to Elizabeth Smart
Cadd9
If you ain't livin' for today then you livin' tomorrow
C Am Asus4 Am
And they recycling my style then claiming it's borrowed
I guess I'm helping the environment doing my part
[Chorus]
C G
I'm too young to die, Mama don't you cry for me
Am F
Just wait for me, wait for me
C G
We can live our lives just like the other side
Am F
Isn't it meant to be, meant to be?
[Verse 2]
C
Nice clothes, nice hair, nice outfit
Cadd9 C
Nice to finally meet you, I can tell you ain't about shit
Am Asus4 Am
And I'm a Leo so you know I'm tryin' to pounce it
Asus4 Am C
Ask me where I'm livin' and I'm givin' the address of all the couches
At my friends' houses that I crashed at
Cadd9 C
And then she dipped on me, left me with a hashtag
Am Asus4
A broke rapper from a Gap ad
Am
But now I'm Indy 500 and I'm livin' on the fast track
C
So watch me as I pass back and jump up like NASDAQ
Cadd9
I know you couldn't imagine that
C
From the kid who was livin' in his backpack
Am Asus4 Am
Well I made a promise to my mama, I'mma be a better man
Asus4 Am C
It took a couple months and now I got a couple grand to show for it
Cadd9
I take the subway no chauffeurin'
C
I make 'em proud, baby go for it
Am Asus4 Am
Cause I be stayin' underground like I gophered it
If you afraid to be alone then get over it
[Chorus]
C G
I'm too young to die, Mama don't you cry for me
Am F
Just wait for me, wait for me
C G
We can live our lives just like the other side
Am F
Isn't it meant to be, meant to be?
[Bridge]
C
I know you'll never think it's fair
G
But Marlie baby, don't compare
Am F
Cause it's too hard to relate to you lately
C
If the good die sooner than the bad ones
G
Then give me one reason not to have fun
Am F
I feel like we're falling away
[Chorus]
C G
I'm too young to die, Mama don't you cry for me
Am F
Just wait for me, wait for me
C G
We can live our lives just like the other side
Am F
Isn't it meant to be, meant to be?
