Roots - Livin' In A New World lyrics

rate me

(feat. John-John)<br />

<br />

[Intro / Chorus: John-John: repeat 2X]<br />

Turn up the boombox, put on your hightops<br />

Come on outside, today's gon' be the day we<br />

Start livin in the new worrrld<br />

<br />

[Black Thought]<br />

Yo, they got high-powered lenses on the cameras outside<br />

It ain't nowhere to run it ain't hardly nowhere to hide<br />

They hear you when you whisperin so try to keep quiet<br />

You don't even realize that youse a twinkle in the all, seein eye<br />

From the time you in the bar gettin high<br />

To havin conversations on your phone through the wire<br />

You can drive but it's definitely footage of your ride<br />

Livin in this day and time, it's a funny kind of vibe<br />

From the corners of the ceiling feel it's eyes in back of me<br />

I couldn't tell you why I think they constantly after me<br />

Maybe it's cause the news put it to me so graphically<br />

How niggaz don't obey no laws, not even gravity boy<br />

No benefit of doubt he had to be from<br />

He from the corner where they known to get they casualty on<br />

Another day another scene to perform, spotlight him on Friday<br />

Come and lock him up Saturday morn, c'mon<br />

<br />

[Chorus]
