Badi - Sidewalkin lyrics
rate meCHORUS:<br />
Step, step, we part, we meet<br />
Head down to the ground as I move my feet<br />
Sidewalkin, I weave through the people<br />
Ain't got the time for a nice to meet you<br />
Step, step, we part, we meet<br />
I feel the energy between us but you're out of my reach<br />
Sidewalkin, I never look you in the eyes<br />
Only worry bout myself so I walk to the side<br />
<br />
Headphones on, ipod in my palm<br />
Lace my new kicks and I'm gone<br />
I'm right where I belong so I'm calm<br />
That last thing I need is a need for alarm, so I keep moving on<br />
I got it going on, feeling good, feeling right<br />
Fresh to death yes all my gear lookin' tight<br />
So I stay out of sight, out of eye contact<br />
Cause why look at me when you can look at all that<br />
I stop by the main strip, cop what I need<br />
Or at least what I need to make me feel complete<br />
Make me feel fulfilled, I'm lost in my thoughts<br />
I pay the cost, unaware of the major loss<br />
But I keep walkin, to the side as I glide<br />
Pickin' up my stride with nobody as my guide<br />
Tryin' not to collide with the passer-by's<br />
So if I walk right by you, don't act surprised<br />
<br />
CHORUS:<br />
Step, step, we part, we meet<br />
Head down to the ground as I move my feet<br />
Sidewalkin, I weave through the people<br />
Ain't got the time for a nice to meet you<br />
Step, step, we part, we meet<br />
I feel the energy between us but you're out of my reach<br />
Sidewalkin, I never look you in the eyes<br />
Only worry bout myself so I walk to the side<br />
<br />
I keep on sidewalkin' like I'm in a rush<br />
Maneuvering and staying out of touch<br />
But just as I turn the corner this guy surprised me<br />
Told me to hold up, thought he recognized me<br />
I feel like I know him, feel like I've seen him around<br />
And I ain't ever sidewalked to this part of town<br />
He told me he could see me and that he knew me well<br />
It wasn't hard to tell that this guy could use some help<br />
I said look I don't know you, I don't really<br />
Care what you go through, I ain't gotta do nothin' for you<br />
I didn't approach you, I don't do that<br />
I don't owe you, look I'm sidewalkin' on my own two<br />
... he just stood there and smiled, looked me in my eyes<br />
Like he could see past my disguise<br />
So why was I still trying to hide<br />
The only thing I knew how to do was turn to the side<br />
<br />
CHORUS:<br />
Step, step, we part, we meet<br />
Head down to the ground as I move my feet<br />
Sidewalkin, I weave through the people<br />
Ain't got the time for a nice to meet you<br />
Step, step, we part, we meet<br />
I feel the energy between us but you're out of my reach<br />
Sidewalkin, I never look you in the eyes<br />
Only worry bout myself so I walk to the side<br />
<br />
Streets is dangerous, so I stay on the sidewalk<br />
Where I got my own space outlined in chalk<br />
But that'll fade away with just a little rain<br />
A temporary drug for the pain<br />
Side effects including losing identity<br />
Short-term serenity prescribed by the enemy<br />
I can't deal with anything after this moment in time<br />
This remedy ain't everything I was hoping to find<br />
I sidewalk with a mask on, but what for<br />
When I've been designed to do so much more<br />
I know it when I write to the beat<br />
The fact that I'm still on my feet makes my cypher complete<br />
Whether cruisin', or walking, man I'm never losing<br />
I want you to see me let there be no confusion<br />
If walkin' on this side means I can't be human<br />
... then I best keep moving<br />
<br />
CHORUS:<br />
Step, step, we part, we meet<br />
Head down to the ground as I move my feet<br />
Sidewalkin, I weave through the people<br />
Ain't got the time for a nice to meet you<br />
Step, step, we part, we meet<br />
I feel the energy between us but you're out of my reach<br />
Sidewalkin, I never look you in the eyes<br />
Only worry bout myself so I walk to the side
