Lyrics Getaway - KRS-One

Getaway

We gotta think about where we goin in life
and how you gon get there
sometimes people around you just stagnating, waiting, procrastinating, hating
we gotta get away
i come to take you, come on
we gotta get away we got to do it now
we gotta get away and ima show yall how
we gotta get away we gotta do it now we gotta get away (get away) to a better
day (better day)
its time for u to leave
its time for u to be what u believe
its time for u to get up and achieve
its time for u to eat right into position to receive those higher
degrees-philosophy
you dont wanna sell keys, have your wrist on freeze
banging beats and fly rhymes, man sell me
so please, i’ll give them some space so you can believe that you can receive
what you perceive
you gotta leave (you gotta leave) old friends and enemies and people tryin hard
to deceive
(we cant leave!)
people study snitching to the D’s, ratting each other out for fees all you can
say is CHEESE
no mercy just mercedes and young ladies having babies this is crazy (so leave,
leave)
follow the bahama breeze, you deserve a break fosheez lets go
Anyway, many say, get that money man, but i dont know without peace NO it aint
sunny man
i seek peace, eat peace, even teach peace,
fight for peace, write for peace smite the beast for peace
LOVE, UNITY-having fun
freedom, equality-hip hop culture we are ONE, lets run!
off the plantation off that man’s station, off their satellite and their
corporations
why you waiting?
hesitating, procrastinating, stagnating
lets change the situation (tonight)
break the chains and follow me, its time that you really be free COMMON
