| Sometimes I wanna get away from all the confusion
|
| Causin’pollution
|
| I know you wish you could run away from this institution
|
| Cause there’s no solution, to survive
|
| Another day when I’m waking up I turn my TV on CNN
|
| Another homie done bit the dust, my best friend’s back up in the pen
|
| Somebody hit the twin towers,? |
| and the buildings came tumbling down
|
| All we could do was watch in tears
|
| While the people of America wondered how we let it go down
|
| Then, I heard a sound when I turned around
|
| This old man said pray for me Said I’ve been in the world for 88 long years and go now can you stay for me?
|
| I looked him in the eyes, and gave him a smile and said mister I don’t mean no harm
|
| But you ain’t going nowhere, so just pull up a chair
|
| I got greens fresh off the farm
|
| And with that he pulled a bottle from his pocket and said youngin’ima give it a try
|
| I said hold up pops, I ain’t forget about the nana you promised so pass it by and then he said…
|
| From dusk to dawn, mom’s always tellin me you must move on Let the past be the last thing to dust you son
|
| And I trust you mom
|
| But the? |
| lust for fun, wanna bust my gun
|
| Wasn’t much to some, then you measured up to most started walking down the road
|
| To the treasure up the post
|
| You just never f***ing know what you gonna see, where ya gonna be,
|
| who you gonna meet
|
| It’s true you gonna sleepin, slip into silence
|
| Shot guns fired, choppers and sirens
|
| Spotlight shinin, flashin on the glance
|
| At a boy without a chance and the Devil on his ass
|
| I be sayin though, livin my life… wishin’and hopin
|
| I be sayin though, chasin the dreams…
|
| I be sayin though same thing that will make you laugh will make you cry
|
| That’s how we know man, why that’s why
|
| I be sayin though taken away from the frustration
|
| I be sayin though teach me to use my imagination
|
| I be sayin though same thing that will make you laugh will make you cry
|
| That’s how we know man, why that’s why |
