Intro: C# E C# E C# E

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

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

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

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

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

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

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