Lyrics Another Way - Lee Scott, Illinformed

Another Way

I’m on me knees in the night, sayin' prayers in the street light
Listenin' to «Gangsta's Paradise» in the rain
I’m not playin', and yet I’m dominatin' the game
Now the latency on the system matches the delay in me brain
I’m killin' it, unintentionally
It’s ill if you like it, but if you think it’s wack it was meant to be
Lack a reason, just because, don’t fuck with us
I plan to stack cash to the height of misery
And treat it like a Mini-Me
I’m a gloomy giant with a look that resembles a million books
How can you be so antsy?
Coz along like they’re the Chico family
And I’m not waitin' 'round to keep 'em happy
I escaped from a town where nothin' happened
And I’m dreamin' of a place John imagined
It’s gettin' harder to avoid the lies in these poignant times
You can win a Nobel Peace Price for destroyin' lives
And I’m over here, stuck, tryna think of some shit that rhymes with
«I can’t figure out if I’m indecisive»
Turn around and walk the other way like
Maybe another day like…
Maybe another day
Another time in another life
It’d be another way
Maybe another day
Another time in another life
It’d be another way, another way, way
Maybe another day
Another time in another life
It’d be another way
Maybe another day, another day
Another time in another life
It’d be another way, another way
I’ll vote when there’s somethin' worth votin' for
«But don’t you wanna talk politics?»
No, I’m poor
Close the door, I don’t know the law to break it
Just give me somethin' strong and a whore to fornicate with
Watch us rise, colonize and drain the planet of its energy
To make sure these self-important slobs survive
Like, there’s always the afterlife to apologise
Evaluate which phase was more depressin'
As boredom sets in, blasting footies at the walls of Heaven
In his Earth days, he was either saggin'
Or tryna find the meanin' in an abstract sleepin' pattern
A blundering dreamer
Or an over-opinionated underachiever with an ugly demeanour
Either or, top heavy but rock steady
Buyin' two 10's in a more than one 20
I’m not bevvied and blitzed, and life’s a blur
Who can get her fried first?
Well friend, let’s see then
Now drop somethin' that’ll knock you into next weekend
Or, simply walk the other way like
Maybe another day like…
Maybe another day
Another time in another life
It’d be another way
Maybe another day
Another time in another life
It’d be another way, another way, way
Maybe another day
Another time in another life
It’d be another way
Maybe another day, another day
Another time in another life
It’d be another way, another way
