[00:20.20] Here's to you...
[00:22.18] You have gone through struggles, suffering.
[00:25.12] This one goes out to everybody in the world, but especially on the street level
[00:30.62] Because I know where you comin from and some of the things you do,I can understand
[00:34.31] So through all your travels,I'm wishing you a peaceful journey
[00:40.38] What is a friend for?
[00:41.70] Through rich and through poor
[00:42.65] Kinda like a marriage balanced on a differnet floor
[00:45.18] A friend could tell you things that he wouldn't tell another
[00:47.38] So in essence, a friend could be considered a brother
[00:50.06] You laugh and you play a lot, you talk and you say a lot
[00:52.49] But when it's time to feel the pain, you cry and you pray a lot
[00:54.96] I'm talkin about you, you who have the time
[00:57.49] A time to be my friend when no one else would be mine
[01:00.12] Problems were nothing because
[01:01.30] I had my man to share them with
[01:02.52] Hills were nothing neither, cause
[01:03.89] I had my man to climb 'em with
[01:04.95] I'm really proud to say that
[01:05.86] I truly really knew you good
[01:07.38] And oh, God's blessing from the entire neighborhood
[01:09.70] And as the days drift, drift into the future
[01:12.14] I laugh a little louder at the times that
[01:14.34] I was witcha
[01:15.21] This one's for you and
[01:16.12] I truly hope you hear me
[01:17.33] And through all your travels
[01:18.76] I'm wishing you a peaceful journey (Heavy D)
[01:34.91] And I wish you a peaceful journey (Peace!)
[01:37.32] Brother I hope you hear me
[01:39.54] In the corner, sits the little girl in tears
[01:42.07] The shadow of a man overwhelms her fears
[01:44.59] "Mommy, mommy, NO!", the words of a battered child
[01:47.04] The wicked, wicked mommy has the sticks swingin buckwild
[01:49.63] "Mister, mister, do you have a dime?
[01:51.75] See, I'm hungry and I'd rather be a begger than do crime"
[01:54.42] Sure - here's your dime, go make a big ten bucks
[01:56.86] Now sneak around the corner, get your joints and go beat him up
[01:59.38] A kid on the streets, doesn't want to be beat
[02:01.61] So he hangs on the block 'til his pop fall asleep
[02:04.85] Missing kids on the milk carton
[02:06.81] A lunatic kills kids for kicks and gets pardoned
[02:09.39] Baby girls run away from home, huh
[02:11.77] And two months later, they're stars on child porn
[02:14.24] Tracks on the arms of a minor
[02:16.63] Suzie ran too, but she'll be dead when they find her
[02:19.25] Kids on the street movin drugs, the thugs' growin up fast
[02:21.53] Wouldn't stop when one gets plunged
[02:24.16] Junior stole a
[02:25.12] Benz with his friends
[02:26.27] But got caught, now he's doin time with twenties and tens
[02:28.90] For the rest of his life, he learns to lean on the wall
[02:31.29] And prays for the day when his number is called
[02:34.07] This one if for you and
[02:35.33] I truly hope you heard me
[02:36.59] Through all your travels,
[02:37.81] I'm wishing you a peaceful journey
[03:18.80] Pardon me, mister warden,
[03:19.86] I'm askin for a pass
[03:20.97] To come for some of my brothers who made mistakes in the pass
[03:23.29] It's really not their fault, you see - times are
[03:25.62] HARDAnd it was probably difficult for my man to find a job
[03:28.31] Before he was forced, forced to make a living
[03:30.79] By lying, stealing, and eventually killing
[03:33.22] No one was born bad, we're all
[03:34.99] God's Kids
[03:35.75] So who's to really blame for the wrong that he did?
[03:38.18] And speakin about the law, what are they for?
[03:40.66] To beat us with a stick face down on the floor?
[03:43.18] You preach and you preach that you want crime to stop
[03:45.55] If you want crime to stop, stop hiring crooked cops
[03:47.89] So hear me brother man, hear my plea!
[03:50.35] If you want success all you gotta do is suc-ceed
[03:53.13] Love, life, pain, death
[03:55.47] What else is left on the travels of life's steps?
[03:57.84] In life, we lose, get bumped and bruised
[04:00.27] The road you choose not necessarily a cruise
[04:02.80] You giggle for joy, shed a tear for pain
[04:05.12] There's a lot to lose, and a lot to gain
[04:07.50] Though when you walk on the streets, try to walk on street smarts
[04:10.13] When you see your man down, try to have a little heart
[04:12.45] This one if for you and
[04:13.97] I truly hope you heard me
[04:15.09] Through all your travels,
[04:16.35] I'm wishing you a peaceful journey
[04:21.74] Yeah, you're on my mind...
[04:25.38] Peace...Hear me now brother
[05:07.11] Stop your killing, stop your killing
[05:12.07] Stop your stealing, stop your stealing
[05:17.48] Stop your killing, stop your killing
[05:21.63] Stop your killiiiii-ehhhhh-eeeeaaasah...
[05:25.58] Huurrrrrrrr...
[05:39.05] WHOO!Take my hand, take my hand
