歌詞
[Verse 1]
Now I seen places and faces
Thinks you ain't never thought about thinkin'
If you ain't peep then you must be drinkin' and smokin'
Pretendin' that you're locin' but you're broken
Let me get ya open
Now little Timmy got his diploma and little Jimmy got life
And Tamika around the corner just took her first hit off the pipe
The other homie shot the other homie and ran off with his money
And when the other homies heard about it
They thought that it was funny
[Verse 2]
But who's the dummy 'cause now you done lost a hustler
A down ass mother done been replaced by a busta
And though I got love for ya, I know I can't trust ya
'Cause my crew is rollin' Hummers and your crew is rollin' dusters
And just because of that you act like you don't like a brother no more
I guess that's just the way it go
I ain't tryna preach, I believe I can reach but your mind ain't prepared
I'll C U when U get there
[Verse 3]
I'll C U when U get there
If U ever get there
C U when U get there
I'll C U when U get there
If U ever get there
C U when U get there
[Verse 4]
More temptation and faith, I guess we livin' for the day
I seen a man get swept off his feet by bull with an AK
The situation's so twisted, everybody gettin' lifted
I'm just tryna take care my kids and handle my business
'Cause it's way too serious, so you gotta pay close attention
So you don't caught slippin' when it come to do all the gettin'
Life is a big game so you gotta play it with a big heart
Some of us gotta run a little faster 'cause we got a later start
[Verse 5]
But I be a fool to surrender when I know I can be a contender
If everybody's a sinner, then everybody can be a winner
No matter your rag color, deep down we all brothers
And regardless of the time, somebody up there still love us
Scuffle and struggle until I'm breathless and weak
I done strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peak
Always keep reachin', sure to grab onto somethin'
I'll be there when you get there, waitin' with the sounds bumpin'
[Verse 6]
I'll C U when U get there
If U ever get there
C U when U get there
I'll C U when U get there
If U ever get there
C U when U get there
[Verse 7]
You need to loosen up and live a little
And if you got kids, let 'em know how you feel
And for your own sake, give a little
Oh, you don't wanna hear that, you busy tryna stack
And keep up with the Jones, is takin' advantage of your own
The realest homies that been you knowin' for the longest
But some ain't missin' a good thing until it's gone
Then I built an empire, not for the jealousy that divides us
We prefer to keep our eyes shut till it's right
When it's somethin' involved that we desire
[Verse 8]
So hold your head up high, if your poem righteous
I know time seem strife and problems seems endless
But in times of despair we gotta pull ourselves together
And if you feel you're out the game, then you need to get back in it
'Cause nothing worse than a quitter, you gotta face responsibility
One day, my brother, so wrap up your pity and turn it to ambition
And put your vehicle in drive and stop by my side
[Verse 9]
I'll C U when U get there
If U ever get there
C U when U get there
I'll C U when U get there
If U ever get there
C U when U get there
[Verse 10]
As we walk down the road of our destiny
And the time comes to choose, which shall it be?
The wide a crooked or the straight and narrow?
We got one voice to give and one life to live
Stand up for somethin' or lay down in the game
Listen to the song that we sang
It's up to you to make your beef
I guess I'll see you, when you see me
[Verse 11]
I'll C U when U get there
If U ever get there
I'll C U when U get there
If U ever get there
I'll C U when U get there
If U ever get there
I'll C U when U get there
If U ever get there
