    [INTRO] Gm F Bb Cm Dm Eb D x2
    [VERSE]
    Gm F
    Ayo mugshots, gun shots, dope shots, jump shot
    Bb
    Take your pick, but you only get one shot
    Cm Dm
    Advice from a schoolteacher to a young tot
    Eb D
    Applyin' a sticker to his Spiderman lunchbox
    Gm F
    When even role models tell us we're born to be felons
    Bb
    We're never gettin' into Harvard or Carnegie Mellon
    Cm Dm
    And we gon' end up either robbin' somebody or killin'
    Eb D
    It's not fair that's all they can tell us
    Gm
    That's why you hustle hella hard,
    F
    never celebrate a holiday
    Bb
    That'll be the day I coulda finally hit the lottery
    Cm Dm
    I refuse to ever lose or throw my shot away
    Eb D
    Or chalk it up as just another one that got away
    Gm D
    So I'm unapologetic, I'm on my calesthenics
    Bb
    If I have given it all I got I cannot regret it
    Cm
    My point of destination's
    Dm
    different from where I was headed
    Eb D
    'Cause I'ma shoot for the stars to get it
    D
    One shot

    [HOOK]
    Gm F
    I said I'm not throwin' away my shot
    Bb
    I said I'm not throwin' away my shot
    Cm
    Yo I'm just like my country

    I'm young, scrappy and hungry
    Eb D
    And I'm not throwin' away my shot
    Gm
    I said I'm not throwin' away my shot
    F Bb
    No I'm not throwin' away my shot
    Cm
    Yo I'm just like my country
    Cm
    I'm young, scrappy and hungry
    Eb D
    And I'm not throwin' away my shot

    [VERSE]
    Gm F
    When opportunity knock, you don't send anyone to get it
    Bb
    Answer the door, welcome it, let it in or regret it
    Cm
    They said if you can't beat 'em you join 'em
    Dm
    I said, "Forget it"
    Eb
    'Cause once you join 'em
    D
    you're buildin' a ceilin' the way you're headed
    Gm F
    Be American, express how you feel and take the credit
    Bb
    Don't settle for 87, go premium unleaded and
    Cm Dm
    Take off, shake all the hate off, it's over
    Eb
    It's they loss,
    d
    the payoff's their weight off your shoulders
    Gm
    Must admit, I'm feelin', I'm kind of um
    F Bb
    Lighter as a writer with this fire and desire to go higher
    Cm
    Than a stealth fighter pilot with my eye on every prize
    Dm Eb
    I surprise you guys, I'm a prize fighter
    D Gm F
    My nine to five describe, your scribe survive minor
    Bb
    Setbacks and take steps back from pied pipers
    Cm Dm
    Be leaders, believers in yourself and mean it
    Eb D
    I mean you only get one shot, take it or leave it

    Gm
    Rise up
    F Bb
    If you livin' on your knees, you rise up
    Cm
    Tell your brother that he's gotta rise up
    Dm Eb
    Tell your sister that she's gotta rise up
    D Gm
    When are folks like me and you gonna rise up?
    F Bb
    Every city, every hood, we need to rise up
    Cm
    All my soldiers, what's good? We need to rise up
    Dm Eb
    We ain't got no other choice, we need to rise up
    D
    Rise up!

    Gm
    Throughout my travels and journeys
    F
    through life I've been searchin'
    Bb
    And been learnin' to be
    Cm
    the type of person to display how determined I get
    Dm Eb
    When I'm certain, inside I feel that fire that's burnin'
    D
    Like a knife that is turnin', I fight while I'm hurtin'
    Gm
    Sometimes they're right 'cause life is a burden
    F Bb
    Like the pain from a bite that'll worsen
    Bb
    Tryna stifle the light that'll shine on me first and
    Cm
    Before I ride in a hearse and...
    Cm Dm
    My breathing stops and
    Eb D
    You'll never take my one shot I got 'fore I lie in the earth
    Gm
    And now I kill again on that Hamilton Hercules Mulligan
    F Bb
    Readin' in Vanity Fair or the Huffington
    Bb
    Done with the sufferin',
    Cm
    we in the guts again, family rushin' in
    Dm Eb
    Wonder where Busta been
    D
    Feelin' the hunger and feedin' the lust to win
    Gm F Bb
    See I've been patiently waitin' for this moment
    Bb Cm
    To rise up again, that's the way I was molded
    Cm
    And as the last one standin' as the rest of them foldin'
    Dm Eb D
    Give me my one chance to grab the torch and properly hold it

    [HOOK]
    Gm F
    I said I'm not throwin' away my shot
    Bb
    I said I'm not throwin' away my shot
    Cm
    Yo I'm just like my country

    I'm young, scrappy and hungry
    Eb D
    And I'm not throwin' away my shot
    Gm
    I said I'm not throwin' away my shot
    F Bb
    No I'm not throwin' away my shot
    Cm
    Yo I'm just like my country
    Cm
    I'm young, scrappy and hungry
    Eb D
    And I'm not throwin' away my shot
