Song by Coolio f/ 40 Thevz<br /><br>

[Verse One: Coolio]<br>

<br>

Now I've seen places and faces<br>

And things you ain't never thought about thinking<br>

If you ain't peek then you must be drinking and smokin<br>

Pretending not to loc'in but you're broken, let me get you open<br>

Now little Timmy got his diploma and little Jimmy got life<br>

And Tamikra around the corner just took her first hit off the pipe<br>

The other homie shot the other homie and ran off with his money<br>

And when the other homies heard about it they thought that it was funny<br>

But who's the dummy, cause, now you done lost the hustler<br>

A down-ass brother got replaced by a buster<br>

And though I got love for ya, I know I can't trust ya<br>

Cause my crew is rollin home and your crew is rollin dusta<br>

And just because of that you act like you don't like the brother no more<br>

Uh, I guess that's just the way it goes<br>

I ain't tryin to preach, I believe I can reach<br>

But your mind ain't prepared, I'll see you when you get there<br>

<br>

[Chorus:]<br>

<br>

I'll see you when you get there<br>

When you ever get there<br>

See you when you get there<br>

I'll see you when you get there<br>

If you ever get there<br>

See you when you get there<br>

<br>

[Verse Two: Lek Ratt (40 Thevz)]<br>

<br>

More temptation and faith, I guess we livin for the day<br>

I seen a man get swept off his feet, by a bullet and an AK<br>

The situation so twisted everybody gettin lifted<br>

I'm just tryin to take care of my kids and handle my business<br>

Cause it way too serious so you gotta pay close attention<br>

So you don't get caught sittin' when they come and do all the gettin<br>

Life is a big game so you gotta play it with a big horse<br>

Someone's gotta run a little faster cause we gotta lay the strugle <br>

I'd be a fool to surrender when I know I can be a contender<br>

And if everybody's a sinner then everybody could be a winner<br>

No matter you rag collar deep down we all brothers<br>

And regardless of the time somebody out there still love us<br>

I'm a scuff and struggle and y'all I'm breathless and weak<br>

I just strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peak<br>

Always keep reaching sure to grab on to something<br>

I'll be there when you get there when you wit the sound bumpin<br>

<br>

[Chorus]<br>

<br>

[Verse Three: PS (40 Thevz)]<br>

<br>

You need to loosen up and live a little<br>

And if you got kids let them know how you feelin<br>

For your own sake give a little<br>

Oh, you don't want to hear that, you busy tryina stack<br>

and keep them from the Jones's is taking advantage of your own<br>

The realest homies that you've been knowing for the longest<br>

But some ain't missing a good thing until it's gone<br>

Could have built an empire if not for the jealousy that divides us<br>

We prefer to keep our eyes shut to describe when <br>

It's something wrong and we desire<br>

so hold your head up high if your poor and righteous<br>

I know time seems right, and the problems seem endless<br>

But at the times of despair we gotta put ourselves together<br>

And if you feel you're out of the game then you need to get back in it<br>

Cause nothing worse than a quitter<br>

you gotta face responsibility one day, my brother<br>

so gather up your pitty and turn it to ambition <br>

and put your vehicle and drive and stop by my side<br>

<br>

[Chorus]<br>

<br>

[Outro: Coolio]<br>

<br>

As we walk down the road of our destiny<br>

And the time comes to choose which it gonna be<br>

The wide and crooked, on a straight barrel<br>

We got one push to give and one life to live<br>

Stand up for something or lie down in your game<br>

Listen to the song that we sing<br>

It's up to you to make it big<br>

I guess I'll see you when you see me<br>

<br>

[Chorus -- fade out]<br>

<br>
