Group 1 Crew - A Lot In Common lyrics

rate me

I was driving in my car last night

Radio up and came to a stoplight

Had a man who came up to my window and

Asked for a dollar cause he was in a tight jam

I could tell by his eyes he's been

Judged by the world and everyone that�s close to him

But I don't see what they see

My heart believes in what he could be

I see life colorblind still

Equality gets so hard to find

You and me both one of a kind

Made like a star to shine let�s shine

Chorus:

Sometimes we�re up and sometimes we�re down

Sometimes the world goes round and round

And we don�t stop to think that

We got a lot in common

Sometimes we have it sometimes we don�t

What matters most is not the physical

Just look inside your soul cause

We got a lot in common

We gotta keep on keep on, and gotta press on press on- blazing ahead

I see the sun coming up and I�m feeling the rays

And thinking back on my life and not forgetting the days

When I was a little lost and only trying to get paid

And how my momma always prayed that I would be ok

Then a day soon came when my sky turned grey

And every friend that I had turned and walked away

I never thought that I would see this day

But then I heard a voice crying through the dark

You�re my son just pray

And what I said next vexed my heart but nonetheless

Admitted that I was wrong, committed to do my best

Hard times still came but they far from my chest

I breathe easy believe me my soul�s at rest

I can tell in your vision that you can't no more

Your shirt is stained by the tears that nobody ever saw

A slave to solitude handcuffed by people�s claws

Who never even noticed the depth of the scars

A fatherless child who never got the chance to hold

Daddy�s hand and mommy was always working trying to pay the rent

So your voyage began on a trail to the end

Cause you never knew what love looked like to begin

But I promise that the day will come when you win

And what you thought was once lost will be placed in your hand

Then the days of being second will be lost in the wind

So bear with us and let me hear the chorus again

Through all the low times

No where to go times

When your world's crashing down

And there's no one around

Don�t you worry we can make it

If we just realize we all look the same inside

Get together and come alive
