[Verse]
G#m
I feel like I'm walking a tight rope, without a circus net
F#
I'm popping percocets, I'm a nervous wreck
B
I deserve respect; but I work a sweat for this worthless check
D# G#m
'Bout to burst this tech, at somebody to reverse this debt
Minimum wage got my adrenaline caged
F#
Full of venom and rage
Especially when I'm engaged
B
And my daughter's down to her last diaper
D#
That's got my ass hyper
G#m
I pray that god answers, maybe I'll ask nicer
Watching ballers while they're flossing in their pathfinders
F#
These overnight stars becoming autograph signers
B D#
We all long to blow up and leave the past behind us
G#m
Along with the small fry's and average half pinters
F#
While player haters turn bitch like they have vaginas
B
'Cause we see them dollar signs and let the cash blind us
D#
Money'll brainwash you and leave your ass mindless
While snakes slither in the grass spineless
[Chorus]
(Chords 2x)

G#m
That's Rock Bottom
When this life makes you're mad enough to kill
F#
That's Rock Bottom
When you want something bad enough to steal
B
That's Rock Bottom
When you feel like you've had it up to here
D#
'Cause you're mad enough to scream but you're sad enough to tear
[Verse 2]
N.C.
My life is full of empty promises
And broken dreams
F#
I'm hoping things will look up
But there ain't no job openings
B
I feel discouraged, hungry and malnourished
D#
Living in this house with no furnace, unfurnished
G#m
And I'm sick of working dead end jobs with lame pay
F#
And I'm tired of being hired and fired the same day
B
But fuck it, if you know the rules to the game play
D#
'Cause when we die we know we're all going the same way
G#m
It's cool to be the player, but it sucks to be the fan
F#
When all you need is bucks to be the man
B
Plus a luxury sedan
Too comfortable and roomy in a six
D#
But they threw me in the mix
With all these gloomy lunatics
G#m
Who walk around depressed
And smoke a pound of ses a day
F#
And yesterday went by so quick it seems like it was just today
B D#
My daughter wants to throw the ball but I'm too stressed to play
Live half my life and throw the rest away
[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
N.C.
There's people that love me and people that hate me (yup)
F#
But it's the evil that made me this backstabbing, deceitful, and shady
B
I want the money, the women, the fortune, and the fame
D#
That means I'll end up burning in hell scorching in flames
G#m
That means I'm stealing your checkbook and forging your name
F#
There's lifetime bliss for eternal torture and pain
B
'Cause right now I feel like I've just hit the rock bottom
D#
I got problems now everybody on my blocks got 'em (I'm done)
G#m F#
I'm screaming like those two cops when 2pac shot 'em
B
Holding two glocks, I hope your doors got new locks on 'em
D#
My daughter's feet ain't got no shoes or socks on 'em
G#m
And the rings you're wearing look like they got a few rocks on 'em
F#
And while you flaunt 'em I could be taking them to shops to pawn them
B
I got a couple of rings and a brand new watch you want 'em?
'Cause I never went gold off one song
D#
I'm running up on someone's lawn with guns drawn
[Chorus]
