VERSE 1

Gm                          F
These streets remind me of quicksand
           Gm                   F
When your on it you keep goin' down 
- goin' down
            Gm
And there's no one to hold on to
            F
And there's no one to pull you out
             Gm
You keep on fallin'
                         F
And no one can here you callin'
                         Gm
So you end up self-destructin'
On the corner with the tuli on the 
           F                       
waist line just got outta the bing 
             Gm
doin' state time
Teeth marks on my back from the 
    F
canine
Dark memories of when there was no 
    Gm
sunshine
                          F
They said that I wouldn't make it
                      Gm
I remember like yesterday (hey)
                      F
Holdin on to what God gave me
