| [00:23.13] |
Now I've seen places and faces |
| [00:24.74] |
And things you ain't never thought about thinkin' |
| [00:26.79] |
If you ain't peeped then you must be drinkin' and smokin' |
| [00:29.40] |
Pretending that you're loc'in but you're broken, let me get you open |
| [00:33.30] |
Now little Timmy got his diploma and little Jimmy got life |
| [00:35.45] |
And Tamikra around the corner just took her first hit off the pipe |
| [00:38.37] |
The other homie shot the other homie and ran off with his money |
| [00:41.21] |
And when the other homies heard about it they thought that it was funny |
| [00:43.71] |
But who's the dummy, cause, now you done lost the hustler |
| [00:46.36] |
A down-ass brother done been replaced by a buster |
| [00:48.96] |
And though I got love for ya, I know I can't trust ya |
| [00:51.71] |
Cause my crew is rollin' homers and your crew is rollin' dusters |
| [00:54.42] |
And just because of that you act like you don't like the brother no more |
| [00:57.07] |
|
| [00:58.21] |
Uh, I guess that's just the way it goes |
| [00:59.55] |
I ain't tryin' to preach, I believe I can reach |
| [01:02.65] |
But your mind ain't prepared, I'll see you when you get there |
| [01:05.61] |
I'll see you when you get there |
| [01:10.40] |
If you ever get there |
| [01:12.85] |
See you when you get there |
| [01:15.24] |
I'll see you when you get there |
| [01:20.31] |
If you ever get there |
| [01:23.05] |
See you when you get there |
| [01:26.50] |
|
| [01:26.71] |
More temptation than faith, I guess we livin' for the day |
| [01:29.12] |
I seen a man get swept off his feet, by a boy with an AK |
| [01:32.07] |
The situation so twisted everybody gettin' lifted |
| [01:34.38] |
I'm just tryin' to take care of my kids and handle my business |
| [01:37.08] |
Cause it way too serious so you gotta pay close attention |
| [01:39.92] |
So you don't get caught sittin' when they come and do all the gettin' |
| [01:42.47] |
Life is a big game so you gotta play it with a big heart |
| [01:45.03] |
Some of us gotta run a little faster cause we gotta lay the struggle |
| [01:47.73] |
I'd be a fool to surrender when I know I can be a contender |
| [01:50.33] |
If everybody's a sinner then everybody can be a winner |
| [01:52.98] |
No matter your rag color, deep down we all brothers |
| [01:55.87] |
And regardless of the time, somebody up there still love us |
| [01:58.72] |
I'm a scuffle and struggle until I'm breathless and weak |
| [02:00.99] |
I done strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peak |
| [02:03.74] |
Always keep reaching sure to grab on to something |
| [02:06.44] |
I'll be there when you get there with muted sounds bumpin' |
| [02:09.67] |
|
| [02:09.88] |
I'll see you when you get there |
| [02:14.47] |
If you ever get there |
| [02:16.92] |
See you when you get there |
| [02:20.17] |
I'll see you when you get there |
| [02:24.83] |
If you ever get there |
| [02:27.34] |
See you when you get there |
| [02:30.63] |
|
| [02:41.45] |
You need to loosen up and live a little |
| [02:43.46] |
And if you got kids let them know how you feelin' |
| [02:45.60] |
For your own sake give a little |
| [02:47.51] |
Oh, you don't want to hear that, you busy tryin' stack |
| [02:50.40] |
And keep up with the Joneses, takin' advantage of your own |
| [02:52.30] |
The realest homies that you've been knowing for the longest |
| [02:53.95] |
But some ain't missing a good thing until it's gone |
| [02:56.50] |
Could have built an empire if not for the jealousy that divides us |
| [02:59.31] |
We prefer to keep our eyes shut till it's right |
| [03:01.36] |
When there's something involved that we desire |
| [03:02.91] |
So hold your head up high if you're poor and righteous |
| [03:05.76] |
I know times seem strife, and problems seem endless |
| [03:07.90] |
But at the times of despair we gotta put ourselves together |
| [03:10.40] |
And if you feel you're out of the game then you need to get back in it |
| [03:13.01] |
Cause nothing worse than a quitter |
| [03:15.05] |
You gotta face responsibility one day, my brother |
| [03:18.10] |
So wrap up your pity and turn it to ambition |
| [03:20.37] |
And put your vehicle in 'drive' and stop by my side |
| [03:23.36] |
|
| [03:24.27] |
I'll see you when you get there |
| [03:31.89] |
If you ever get there |
| [03:34.86] |
I'll see you when you get there |
| [03:42.47] |
If you ever get there |
| [03:45.66] |
I'll see you when you get there... |
