[Verse 1: Chance the Rapper]
I say my prayers on private planes
I thank God for the drip before he dried the drain
I think twice about the pilot with my hybrid brain
It's like I super-see survival, I'm alive and well
Give to the streets so I can hear them for spider fell
When they were tearin' down my projects like the idol wealth
And I was out here feelin' lower than the height of Hell
I grab the book, and book the trip, I had to look at God
I mean the verse is pretty decent, but the hook is hard

[Chorus: Chance the Rapper & Daniel Caesar]
Skim through, skim my need
(Just try to find my way back, just try to get my way)
Skim through, skim my need
(Just try to get my way back closer to the truth)

[Verse 2: Chance the Rapper]
Read all the instructions for the brand new construction
The map to the function is just a path to destruction
Exercise your right to be a dyin' breed, and re-reader
All the free thinkers must be readers or retweeters
Our last name heroes and brief leaders were more than just repeaters
All these so-called see so-ers will need reaper
Everyday we tryin' not to be what we've been through
Look at every page, promise never to skim through

[Chorus: Chance the Rapper & Daniel Caesar]
Skim through (Skim my need), skim my need
(Just try to find my way back, just try to get my way)
Skim through (Skim my need), skim my need (Skim through)
(Just try to get my way back closer to the truth)
(Skim my need)


[Outro]
(Skim through, skim my need)
Amen, amen
Let it shine
Amen, amen
Amen, amen

Chance the Rapper

Chancellor Johnathan Bennett (born April 16, 1993), known professionally as Chance the Rapper, is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, and actor from the West Chatham neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois.

Chance is the frontman and lead vocalist for the band The Social Experiment. His unconventional, bohemian approach to releasing music has led the wave of independent artists garnering national attention without a backing label. His first two acclaimed solo projects 10 Day (2012) and Acid Rap (2013) have been called “classic” by Rolling Stone and Billboard Magazine. Before his solo work, Chance was part of a hip-hop duo named Instrumentality with his friend Justin. Apart from his solo career, he is a member of the Chicago collective SAVEMONEY (along with frequent collaborator Vic Mensa).

In 2015, Chance released a collaborative project titled Surf with Donnie Trumpet and The Social Experiment as a free album available through iTunes, and also became the first unsigned artist to perform on Saturday Night Live. His highly anticipated third solo project Coloring Book was released in 2016 via Apple Music to widespread praise from fans and critics alike, garnering a Metacritic score of 90 indicating “universal acclaim.” Coloring Book was also the first ever streaming-exclusive album to chart on the Billboard 200, debuting at number 8.
