Mims - Where I Belong |
| [00:12.95] |
|
| [00:16.33] |
It's in a place with no racial barriers |
| [00:19.50] |
And we all ride high in chariots |
| [00:21.68] |
Where love means love |
| [00:23.00] |
When we all have the finer things |
| [00:24.67] |
So we don't gotta buy 'em diamond rings |
| [00:26.63] |
Just to marry us |
| [00:27.70] |
|
| [00:27.94] |
Instead I'm where they livin' for bling |
| [00:30.17] |
As people manage to sing |
| [00:31.26] |
Over the material things |
| [00:32.54] |
Where hip hop it's no longer just a lyrical thing |
| [00:35.25] |
Tell me God where did I go wrong? |
| [00:37.32] |
This ain't |
| [00:37.98] |
(Where I belong) |
| [00:38.82] |
|
| [00:39.09] |
It's in a place where bad souls never get in |
| [00:41.10] |
Instead I'm in Hell's kitchen |
| [00:42.07] |
It's sickenin' to my stomach |
| [00:43.68] |
I'm runnin' a 100 mile |
| [00:44.94] |
But still can't escape from it |
| [00:46.31] |
I pray you show me the light |
| [00:47.59] |
It's only right, these lonely nights |
| [00:49.28] |
I call on my momma to hold me tight |
| [00:51.10] |
Show me right from wrong |
| [00:52.65] |
This road I'm on, I passed my turn |
| [00:54.60] |
But please, don't allow me to crash and burn |
| [00:56.71] |
Just give me a chance, watch how fast I learn |
| [00:59.39] |
(Where I belong) |
| [00:59.77] |
|
| [01:00.85] |
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky |
| [01:04.05] |
'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die |
| [01:06.48] |
Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I |
| [01:10.55] |
(Where I belong) |
| [01:11.29] |
|
| [01:11.58] |
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky |
| [01:14.74] |
'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die |
| [01:17.27] |
Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I |
| [01:21.61] |
(Where I belong) |
| [01:22.28] |
|
| [01:22.78] |
Is somewhere |
| [01:23.81] |
In someone's memory |
| [01:24.67] |
Where we're all friends and ain't no enemies |
| [01:26.35] |
And there ain't no one minute you're wrong |
| [01:28.55] |
Next minute you're gone, so I hope that |
| [01:30.35] |
By the end of this song, I am |
| [01:32.05] |
(Where I belong) |
| [01:33.07] |
|
| [01:33.37] |
Where fathers don't leave when you're born |
| [01:34.87] |
And every page in the book ain't torn |
| [01:37.03] |
And everyday that you lookin', they gone |
| [01:38.58] |
And you wishin' they came |
| [01:40.33] |
You see I know I ain't from here |
| [01:41.73] |
I'm wishin' I had remained |
| [01:43.00] |
(Where I belong) |
| [01:43.84] |
|
| [01:44.05] |
No followers, no leaders |
| [01:45.21] |
No burners and heaters |
| [01:46.35] |
No dimes, no divas, it's pure |
| [01:48.35] |
No cancer, AIDS, God leave us a cure |
| [01:50.86] |
No more violence |
| [01:52.64] |
No need for police to appear |
| [01:53.95] |
No schools to drop out |
| [01:54.92] |
No snitches to cop out |
| [01:56.32] |
No drugs to sell, meanin' no fiends to knock out |
| [01:59.01] |
I'm talkin' a perfect place where we all get along |
| [02:01.71] |
That's why I know |
| [02:02.92] |
That this ain't the place |
| [02:04.08] |
(Where I belong) |
| [02:05.12] |
|
| [02:05.35] |
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky |
| [02:08.42] |
'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die |
| [02:10.94] |
Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I |
| [02:14.95] |
(Where I belong) |
| [02:15.96] |
|
| [02:16.25] |
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky |
| [02:19.08] |
'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die |
| [02:21.59] |
Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I |
| [02:25.57] |
(Where I belong) |
| [02:26.62] |
|
| [02:26.91] |
It's in a place where women don't trade money for sex |
| [02:29.24] |
So cops harass you in front of your steps |
| [02:31.23] |
Where taxes don't equal a half your check |
| [02:33.79] |
Where people give respect in order to have respect(No gold diggers) |
| [02:37.45] |
Tryna figure how much cash I get(No speed limits) |
| [02:40.07] |
So it won't matter how fast I went(Take the time to think) |
| [02:43.06] |
No decisions |
| [02:43.78] |
Is brash an' shit |
| [02:44.69] |
No alcohol so drunk niggaz won't crash their whips |
| [02:47.51] |
(Where I belong) |
| [02:48.55] |
|
| [02:48.78] |
The same place where Big and Pac's at |
| [02:50.31] |
The same place they buried hip hop back |
| [02:52.49] |
Right there |
| [02:53.16] |
Me and my mom reunite there |
| [02:55.03] |
Then it's off through the Pearly Gates |
| [02:56.89] |
To sit down in that white chair |
| [02:58.53] |
Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye |
| [03:00.06] |
Barry White dead |
| [03:01.22] |
Carry Mims Senior, Joanne Phnell right there |
| [03:03.90] |
I don't need money |
| [03:04.98] |
All I need is a mic there |
| [03:06.42] |
I can see it so clear, I'll be there in the light, yeah |
| [03:08.72] |
|
| [03:09.30] |
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky |
| [03:12.82] |
'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die |
| [03:15.33] |
Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I |
| [03:19.14] |
(Where I belong) |
| [03:20.17] |
|
| [03:20.88] |
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky |
| [03:23.56] |
'Cuz I'm stuck in this life until I die |
| [03:26.08] |
Lord, stop me from being crucified as soon as I |
| [03:30.44] |
(Where I belong) |
| [03:31.24] |
|
| [03:31.76] |
I'm tryna keep my head up to the sky |
| [03:34.65] |
