Intro: D F D F D F

         Dm
This is war with no weapons,
 Bb
Marchin with no steppin,
 F
Murder with no killin,
A
Ill in every direction.
 Dm
First, no sequel,
        Bb
Do the math, no equal
   F
A John with no Yoko,
      A
More power, less people,

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

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

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

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

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

      Am              Bb
In the wastelands of today,
                          F
When thereʼs nothing left to lose,
                             Bb
And and thereʼs nothing more to take,
                         F
But you force yourself to choose,
        Am           Bb
In the wastelands of today,
                   F
When tomorrow disappears
                     Bb
When the future slips away,
                        F
And your hope turns into fear,
                       A
And your hope turns into fear,
                   D  F D
In the wastelands of today!
        F           D  F D
In the wastelands of today!
