Abangsapau – One Minute Chord

Am Dm 
Am Dm

(Loop)

Wake up,
Don’t blame the world 
before you blame yourself
How can you say they 
sleeping on you when 
your eyes are closed?
Sampai bila kau nak 
ikut mana angin tiup?
Takleh tidur, takleh tidur, 
mata takleh tutup

Am Dm 
Am Dm

(Loop)

Stand up
You want a seat 
but never earned it
Used to be outside 
but now you wanna 
close the curtains
Holding yourself back 
because you’re scared 
of feeling hurt again
The healing with no medicine
It turned you to an addict

3rd of 4 siblings
It wasn’t perfect 
but was family
My first dose of mental health 
was mothers with anxiety
Fuck a tattoo, I was 
swimming in the ink
Of God’s pen,
This goes one of two ways: 
will I sink or will I swim?

Am Dm 
Am Dm

(Loop)

Rat race,
This is Singapura, 
wanna make it? You got one way
Fuck your colour, 
moola, dollar signs 
is what we all speak
Every morning dead 
people up in the MRT
Knew that I could never, 
I can’t knock 'em, 
but it’s not me
Multi scholar, model student, 
valedictorian (yes!)
Leader, public speaker, 
even fucking made it on TEDx!
I was doing everything 
correctly til one fateful day
I felt somebody tapping 
on my shoulder and 
everything changed
My best friend Azri 
said, “Bro, when we finish class,
Let’s go sit down somewhere 
nice and write some fucking raps!”
Caution: If you say yes, 
it’s permanent, you can’t go back
4 years later dropped out,
Ddim     
life really comes at you fast

Full-time artist 
signed to Def Jam SEA
Working as a waiter 
while I’m in a major label
(That was success to me)
Made it out of my depression
(That was success to me)
Made her smile instead of cry
(That was success to me)
Long line of hurt and agony
And when I slipped, 
I felt my ancestors 
were looking at me
To break patterns 
there was only one 
thing I could say:
Fuck my ancestors, 
Bdim 
I don’t like them anyway

Am 
Bila kau cari, 
Am 
kamu takkan jumpa
Am 
Bila kau lari, 
Am 
kamu takkan make it far
Am 
Niat ku suci tapi
Am 
Kami semua pendosa
Am 
Semua pendosa

Number satu Singapura 
and this shit ain’t 
even motherfucking close yet
Used to cry at the 
credit scenes now I walk 
around with no closure
Buncha lambs in a goat cloak, 
senang tipu dua-dua kambing
Pelakon, pelakon, pelakon,
They wanna be players, 
but really they cutscenes

Am Dm 
Am Dm 

(Loop)

You can’t hide in no marquee
Tear the tent down, 
ain’t no parties
What the fuck 
they celebrating for?
I don’t give a fuck 
if it’s not me
Popped out in your quarter
Popped out in my city, 
on the map
Tell your buddies 
that I’m back, boy,
It’s a wrap!

Am Am 
Am Am

(Loop)

Gimme That Footwork!
Step one-two
I got the boys,
Ain’t got no crew
Takleh compare
Kau dan aku
Gua no rapper 
with a silver spoon
Tetap suap lu
Don’t step in my shoes
What you really know 
about big stepping?
Aku dah penat with all 
of that friend shit
If you wanna talk, 
then talk to the hand, bitch!

Am Am

(Loop)

Your pop out was an interlude
Whole time, elephant 
was in the room chilling
Yeah I like me some Domino’s 
while I watch 'em fall in 
slow motion, get me?
I never touched a check 
til I earned my stripes
Dorang nak cepat, 
ok bro, get it!
I wanna splash, 
but they want a microwave,
Okay, you got 1 minute!
