See You When I Get There lyrics

Now I've seen places and facesAnd things you ain't never thought about thinkingIf you ain't peek then you must be drinking and smokin'Pretending not to lockin' but you're brokin'Let me get you open nowLittle Timmy got his diploma and, little Jimmy got lifeAnd Tamikra around the cornerJust took her first hit off The pipeThe other homie shot the other homieAnd ran away with his moneyAnd when the other homies heard about itThey thought it was funny but who's the dummyNow you done lost the hustlerA down-ass brother got replaced by a busterAnd though I got love for ya, I know I can't trust youCoz my crew is rollin' home and your crew is rollin' dustaAnd just because of that you act you don't like the brotherNo more, uh, I guess that's just the way it goesI ain't tryina preach, I believe I can reachBut your mind ain't prepared, I see you when you get there1-I'll see you when you get there If you ever get there, see you when you get there I'll see you when you get there if you ever get there See you when you get thereMore temptation and faithI guess we livin' for the dayI seen a man get swept off his feet by a bullet and an AKthe situation so twisted everybody gettin liftedI'm just tryin to take care of my kidsAnd handle my business coz it way too seriousSo you gotta pay close attentionSo you don't get caught sittin'When they come and do all the gettin'Life is a big game so you gotta play it with a big horseSomeone's gotta run a little fasterCoz we gotta lay the strugle I'd be a fool to surrenderWhen I know I can be a contenderAnd if everybody's a contender then everybody could beA winner, no matter you rag collar deep down we all brothersand regardless of the time somebody else still love usI'm a scuff and strugle y'all breathless and weakI just strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peakalways keep reaching sure to grab on to somethingI'll be there when you get there when you wit the sound bumpin'(repeat 1, 1)Verse 3: PS (40 Thevz)You need to loosen up and live a littleand if they got kids let them know how you feelin'for your own sake give a littleoh, you don't want to hear thatyou busy tryina stackand keep them from the Jones's is taking advantage of your ownthe realist homies got you but you known them longestbut some ain't missing a good thing until it's gonecould have built an empire if not for the jelousy that you righteouswe prefare to keep our eyes shut to describe whenit's something wrong and we desireso hold your head up high if your poor and righteousuntil time seems rightthe problems seem endlessput the time to this fairly we gotta put ourselves togetherand if you feel you're obligated then you need to get back in itcoz nothing worse than a quitteryou gotta face responsibility one day, my brotherso gather up your pity and turn it to ambitionand put your vehicle and drive and stop by my side(rpt 1, 1)As we walk down the road of our destinyand the times when there was a thewe got one push to give and one life to livestand up for something or lie down in your gamelisten to the song that we singit's up to you to make it bigI guess I'll see you when you see me(rpt 1, 1...)sallysally@usa.net
