Mr. Bus Driver |
Take me home, a long way |
Ain’t no rush to get there |
I got time to go and |
Make you see the cold world |
Don’t no ever go now |
I’m just glad to be here |
Can I come along? |
Tell me, can I fly with you? |
Looking out the window, it’s the world |
Keep passin' me by like a Pharcyde song |
See this little boy and little girl |
Moms screaming at em as the car’s ride on |
She take off her shoe and you know what she do |
She swings as the girl and the boy cries on |
I look at this man and he looking at me |
We thinking to eachother oh my God, that’s wrong |
But we don’t get involved, cause nothing getting solved |
It’s plain to see that that lady gotta have it |
Six months pregnant, with a third |
Whatever’s in her blood man that baby’s gonna have it |
Dreams unattainable so let me explain to you |
It’s insane and it’s so painful when in plain view |
Close my eyes, trying to avoid the pain too |
I knock out and inner shout, i came to |
Now we on a different block, different area |
Little leerier and the projects is scarier |
Uh unless you come from this part of town |
With the people, the paper bags and the water brown |
Lotta dudes they do lose when they brought around |
It’s so steep and so deep and you sure to drown |
Man, do you get where I’m going? |
Cause I’m just try to get where I’m going, Mr Bus Driver |
Mr Bus Driver |
Doesn’t know a thing of my life |
But I know yours well |
Holding this line up |
Got enough change in my pocket to get around |
Wheels keep turning |
You stop and you go but you won’t slow down |
I don’t wanna know where I’m going now |
Wheels keep turning |
Mr Bus Driver |
Doesn’t know the passenger lost on your route |
Making my mind up |
One day I’ll have enough change to see the whole town |
Red light, green light |
You stop and you go but you won’t slow down |
All I ask of you is you hold it down |
Mr Bus Driver, I gotta ask you |
One question, not tryin' to harass you |
Can you please get my nana home safe? |
Cause she’s 'posed to bring home dinner from White Castle |
And it gets dark early in the fall |
Wonder if she ran into Shirley at the mall |
They got a ride home because the bus be running late |
Wait, why am I worrying at all? |
The 12 bus, the 14, the 25 |
The 38 carry your things and many lives |
Many guys, street mobs with plenty ties |
Sometimes can turn these to shitty rides |
It’s the New York city vibes |
Mass transit, that fish in a can shit |
Yeah, another homeless man lit |
Cross town or Downtown, the plan trip |
You can get more than what you planned for |
I’m holding on even though that my hands sore |
I’m well aware what it means when a fella stare |
I stay ready for whatever, that’s for damn sure |
I guess my confidence is growing |
Or the fact that I lack it isn’t showing |
I don’t know if you get where I’m going |
But I’m just try to get where I’m going, Mr Bus Driver |
Mr Bus Driver |
Doesn’t know a thing of my life |
But I know yours well |
Holding this line up |
Got enough change in my pocket to get around |
Wheels keep turning |
You stop and you go but you won’t slow down |
I don’t wanna know where I’m going now |
Mr Bus Driver |
Doesn’t know the passenger lost on your route |
Making my mind up |
One day I’ll have enough change to see the whole town |
Red light, green light |
You stop and you go but you won’t slow down |
All I ask of you is you hold it down |
Take me home, a long way |
Ain’t no rush to get there |
Can I come along? |
Tell me, can I fly with you? |
