C U When U Get There (Amended) |
Now I’ve seen places and faces |
And things you ain’t never thought about thinking |
If you ain’t peek then you must be drinking and smokin |
Pretending not to loc’in but you’re broken, let me get you open |
Now little Timmy got his diploma and little Jimmy got life |
And Tamikra around the corner just took her first hit off the pipe |
The other homie shot the other homie and ran off with his money |
And when the other homies heard about it they thought that it was funny |
But who’s the dummy, cause, now you done lost the hustler |
A down-ass brother got replaced by a buster |
And though I got love for ya, I know I can’t trust ya Cause my crew is rollin home and your crew is rollin dusta |
And just because of that you act like you don’t like the brother no more |
Uh, I guess that’s just the way it goes |
I ain’t tryin to preach, I believe I can reach |
But your mind ain’t prepared, I’ll see you when you get there |
I’ll see you when you get there |
When you ever get there |
See you when you get there |
I’ll see you when you get there |
If you ever get there |
See you when you get there |
Verse Two: Lek Ratt (40 Thevz) |
More temptation and faith, I guess we livin for the day |
I seen a man get swept off his feet, by a bullet and an AK |
The situation so twisted everybody gettin lifted |
I’m just tryin to take care of my kids and handle my business |
Cause it way too serious so you gotta pay close attention |
So you don’t get caught sittin’when they come and do all the gettin |
Life is a big game so you gotta play it with a big horse |
Someone’s gotta run a little faster cause we gotta lay the strugle |
I’d be a fool to surrender when I know I can be a contender |
And if everybody’s a sinner then everybody could be a winner |
No matter you rag collar deep down we all brothers |
And regardless of the time somebody out there still love us |
I’m a scuff and struggle and y’all I’m breathless and weak |
I just strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peak |
Always keep reaching sure to grab on to something |
I’ll be there when you get there when you wit the sound bumpin |
Verse Three: PS (40 Thevz) |
You need to loosen up and live a little |
And if you got kids let them know how you feelin |
For your own sake give a little |
Oh, you don’t want to hear that, you busy tryin a stack |
and keep them from the Jones’s is taking advantage of your own |
The realest homies that you’ve been knowing for the longest |
But some ain’t missing a good thing until it’s gone |
Could have built an empire if not for the jealousy that divides us We prefer to keep our eyes shut to describe when |
It’s something wrong and we desire |
so hold your head up high if your poor and righteous |
I know time seems right, and the problems seem endless |
But at the times of despair we gotta put ourselves together |
And if you feel you’re out of the game then you need to get back in it Cause nothing worse than a quitter |
you gotta face responsibility one day, my brother |
so gather up your pitty and turn it to ambition |
and put your vehicle and drive and stop by my side |
Outro: Coolio |
As we walk down the road of our destiny |
And the time comes to choose which it gonna be The wide and crooked, on a straight barrel |
We got one push to give and one life to live |
Stand up for something or lie down in your game |
Listen to the song that we sing |
It’s up to you to make it big |
I guess I’ll see you when you see me Chorus -- fade out |
