Intro: C D# C D# C D#

         Cm
This is war with no weapons,
 Ab
Marchin with no steppin,
 D#
Murder with no killin,
G
Ill in every direction.
 Cm
First, no sequel,
        Ab
Do the math, no equal
   D#
A John with no Yoko,
      G
More power, less people,

     Cm
And no Iʼm not afraid of that,
  D#
Print it in your paperback,
F
Every rapperʼs made in fact,
   Cm
To act as a delayed attack,
Cm
Every phrase a razorblade,
     D#
And save it till they play it back,
  F                            Cm
Slay Em leave Em layin on the paper bank,
fade to black,

                        Cm
In the wastelands of today,
                          D#
When thereʼs nothing left to lose,
                         A#
And thereʼs nothing more to take,
                         Fm
But you force yourself to choose,
        D#            Cm
In the wastelands of today,
                  D#
When tomorrow disappears,
                    A#
When the future slips away,
                      Fm
And your hope turns into fear,
        G           C  D#
In the wastelands of today,

Cm                  Ab
Roll credits, forget it, the showʼs done,
         D#
Theyʼre talking for just talkin,
 G
Meaning they got none,
 Cm
None of you come proper,
      Ab
They talk like a shotgun,
     D#                               G
But how many of you got bred with integrity, not one,

    Cm                            D#
So no, Iʼm not afraid to see you suckas hold a blade to me,
F                                  Cm
Aint no way to shake the ground I built before you came to be,
 Cm                              D#
Take it how you take it, Iʼm the opposite of vacancy,
      F                   Cm
And this not negotiation, I can hear you,
Wait and see...

                        Cm
In the wastelands of today,
                            D#
When thereʼs nothing left to lose,
                          A#
And thereʼs nothing more to take,
                         Fm
But you force yourself to choose,
        D#            Cm
In the wastelands of today,
                    D#
When tomorrow disappears,
                      A#
When the future slips away,
                       Fm
And your hope turns into fear,
                        Fm
And your hope turns into fear,
G  D D# F C D# D D# F C D# Dm D# F Cm Dm D# F

And and thereʼs nothing more to take,
                         D#
But you force yourself to choose,
        Gm           Ab
In the wastelands of today,
                   D#
When tomorrow disappears
                     Ab
When the future slips away,
                        D#
And your hope turns into fear,
                       G
