And They Say.. lyrics
Songwriters: Haynes, Cornell; Kemp, Gary
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, let's go
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ohh
N dey say ohh, ohh, ohh
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ohh
N dey say ohh, ohh, ohh
Hold up stop now, let me get a look at ya
Damn girl, I ain't seen you since prom
Come to think about it, I can't believe it's been that long
I heard your man locked down now how long he gone, oh dat long
How the hell he get time like that?
Three strikes with possession, aww, he ain't comin' back
He left you with 2 kids and bills all around
Plus you found out, he had another chick cross-town
It's always the darkness right before the sun rises
And you gotta stay strong for the kids in their eyes and
Please don't despise and go against all brothers and
Have a hatred in your heart and take it out on another
I hate to sound Tupacish, now momma but keep your head up
But you gon' make it, I promise you keep your head up
And that, that don't kill you only makes you stronger
And the will to succeed will only feed the hunger, fo' Reel
(Fo' reel, fo' reel)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ohh
N dey say ohh, ohh, ohh
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ohh
N dey say, ohh, oh, ohh
I was at the gas station and a man walked past
With his sign will work for food, clothes or cash
And he asked if he could pump my gas, so I let him
Clean the windshield and throw out the trash, so I let him
(Hey)
I even asked a brother his name where he was from
Got kids man and what's their ages
He kinda stuttered for a second
He kinda looked surprised that anyone
Would even take an interest in his life
He said, young brother dem the only words
I done heard in the last year that wasn't no
Or get the fuck away from here
How could somthin' so simple as general conversation
Mean much more than general conversation?
(Hey)
You could tell life had beaten him down
Like he was in the title fight and this might be his last round
Sometimes the easiest things we take for granted
Until they gone, then realize we even had it fo' reel
(Fo' reel, fo' reel)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ohh
N dey say, ohh, ohh, ohh
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ohh
N dey say, ohh, oh, ohh
I used to think that life had a plan for me
Until I realized life had to be planned by me, see that's the key
I only deal with what I can see 'cause over history
Mystery brought us nothin' but misery
Man more people done died in the name of the Lord
Than in any natural disaster, disease or gang wars
Before guns there was swords and they was killin' each other
And what's changed to this day still killin' each other
Killin' a brother while another mother cries for help
Man, we need to help a brother find themself
Feed 'em light 1, 2, 3
Hey, that's something every brother should see and that's fo' reel
And that's fo' reel, and that's fo' reel
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ohh
N dey say, ohh, ohh, ohh
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ohh
N dey say, ohh, ohh, ohh
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ohh
N dey say, ohh, ohh, ohh
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ohh
N dey say, ohh, ohh, ohh
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ohh
N dey say, ohh, ohh, ohh
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ohh
N dey say, ohh, ohh, ohh
