                        G#m 
Look, my nigga this is dedication, this is anti-hesitation 
                        G#m            E 
This a real nigga celebration, this a Dime Blocc declaration 
        E                     E      E 
Fifty-Ninth and Fifth Ave, granny's house with vanilla wafers 
           G#m 
This the remedy, the separation, 2Pac of my generation 
     G#m                   E 
Blue pill in the fuckin' Matrix, red rose in the gray pavement 
        E 
Young black nigga trapped and he can't change it 
G#m 
Know he a genius, he just can't claim it 
             A#m                     G#m     F# 
'Cause they left him no platforms to explain it 
E 
He frustrated so he get faded 
     E 
But deep down inside he know you can't fade him 
G#m 
How long should I stay dedicated? 
               G#m 
How long 'til opportunity meet preparation? 
             E 
I need some real nigga reparations 
        E                               G#m 
'Fore I run up in your bank just for recreation

Dedication, hard work plus patience 
   C#m                        E 
The sum of all my sacrifice, I'm done waitin' 
E 
I'm done waitin', told you that I wasn't playin' 
N.C.                             G#m 
Now you hear what I been sayin', dedication

verse 2: Kendrick Lamar 
            G#m 
I spent my whole life thinkin' out the box 
                                  G#m 
Boxin' homies three on one, got DP'ed but I ain't drop 
      E 
Chirp on me, here I come, brrt, spin around the block 
             E                         E 
They blurped on me, said I ran a stop sign but that's a lie 
G# 
I spent my whole life starin' at the stage 
Playin' Sega, daddy smokin' sherm, mama playin' spades 
         E 
Catchin' vapors, grandma said I'd get some Jordans for my grades 
           E 
That's my baby, when she died my heart broke a hundred ways 
G#m 
I spent my whole life tryna make it, tryna chase it 
                                           E 
The cycle of a black man divided, tryna break it 
You take a loss, shit don't cry about it, just embrace it 
                                              G#m 
Minor setback for major comeback, that's my favorite 
                                               Gm 
My nigga L said you do a song with Nip, K. Dot he a better crip 
       E 
I said he a man first, you hear the words out his lips? 
About flourishing from the streets to black businesses? 
                                       G#m     B 
Level four, yard livin' and give in to false imprisonment 
                                         G#m 
Listen close my nigga, it's bigger than deuces and fours my nigga 
E 
Since elementary we close my nigga, yeah, straight like that 
I give you the game, go back to the turf and give it right back 
     G#m 
For generations we been dealt bad hands with bad plans 
G#m 
Prove your dedication by hoppin' out Grand Am's 
   E 
I'm at the premiere politickin' with Top, Nip, and Snoop 
      E                                     D 
Damn, Pac watchin' the way we grew, from dedication 

Interlude: Kendrick Lamar 
E           A 
If it ain't congratulate then it look like hate 
              D#m 
If it ain't congratulate then it look like what, Nipsey? 
Hol' up! 

verse 3: Nipsey Hussle 
     G#m 
This ain't entertainment, it's for niggas on the slave ship 
These songs just the spirituals I swam against them waves wit 
E 
Ended up on shore to their amazement 
I hope the example I set's not contagious 
G#m 
Lock us behind gates but can't tame us 
Used to be stay safe, now it's stay dangerous 
E 
'Cause ain't no point in playin' defense nigga 
That's why I dove off the deep end nigga, without a life jacket 
G#m 
Couple mil, tour the world, now my life crackin' 
          G#m                             E 
Cook the books, bring it back so it's no taxes 
E 
Royalties, publishing, plus I own masters 
 I'll be damned if I slave for some white crackers 
                   G#m 
I was mappin' this out, I hit the heights backwards 
                       G#m              E 
Hoppin' out the eighty-five in Reebok classics 
Ran a couple marathons just to get established 
N.C. 
To make it happen, you got to have it 

 Nipsey Hussle
