Lyrics Doorway - Wiley

Doorway

What’d you want, money or happiness?
Me, I’m likely to go for the money
But, going for the money could lead to disaster
I’m a rudeboy I spend money much faster
I’m not stupid, no, I’m a saver
When I was young blud I used to be a raver
Now I entertain the ravers plus I gotta pave the way for the youngest
I gotta break them barriers, you can’t hold me back
I want my people to see the system is a disease and we are the carriers
Killin' each other cause of heroin, crack cocaine and money
We have gotta break these barriers fast they class ain’t worth this hassle
I’m looking into the future, everybody look into the future and me lets forget
the past
And look for the doorway
If you can’t see, wipe your eyes and look straight forward
Can’t you even see that we are blind to ourselves?
Change your ways
Try to understand life before you pull a trigger and take another life (Life)
I think life’s worth more than drugs and money (Yeah)
You didn’t think you would see me getting somewhere in life, I’m sitting up
here in life
No amount of money is worth more than happiness
I can tell you that, believe me
I got pain that’s never gonna go away, this pain is here to stay with me
But still, I’m on the road to success and, that’s the otherside
Take a bit of rough with the smooth, its alright
Life is like a playground riot, I’m trying to learn about life, it’s hard
I’m hurting inside, I’m burning inside, but one good thing I’m determined inside
And part of my heart is working inside, because
If I can be loved, then I can love back
Part of my unhappiness is that, because I don’t roll around family and that I’m
on my own
If you can’t see wipe your eyes and look straight forward
Can’t you even see that we are blind to ourselves?
Change your ways
Try to understand life before you pull the trigger and take another life (Life)
I think life’s worth more than drugs and money (Yeah)
It looks all good from the outside, crepes and cars and bikes and sleepless
nights and pointless fights in the manor
Everybody wanna be the top boy in the manor
Hanging on the streets with skates or blazing on the stairs, I’m not having it
either blud
Nobody’s having it, that’s gonna lead to a pool of blood, we’re about to draw
blood
The streets are cold, you won’t wanna be around
When the stray bullets fly around
I just wanna hustle my town and cover my ground
Go to my yard and lie down
No, we don’t wanna be tied down, I’ve tried that, so I gotta move on your life
and look right past that
I’m in a class of my own, I got status
'Come on wiley you can do this', I gotta get through this
Concentrate and focus, I can see clearly through my lenses, I’m a reason
So you should start to take note, 'cause you might learn a little something,
I’m like you
One day I was broken, then I got money, then I went broke, then I got money,
then I went broke
It’s a usual cycle, that’s why people can’t cope, can’t cope
You stay there laugh and joke, til one day it’s not a laugh or a joke
Confusion hits your head you can’t see, you turn to other things you’re angry
inside
You can’t be weak to overcome the system we are in, you’ve got to be powerful
Don’t underestimate people, I can show you now I’ve proved to myself,
I can do it boy
