The Roots - Walk on lyrics

rate me

Feat. Isaac Hayes

Yeah, as a child I used to fantasize, about the lights …

Getting them all and getting mine, getting the shit they …

Looking for some blessing in the sky like it's camouflage

Never had expect I'd be the greatest fan alive

Cause I come from Philly where it's … and standing by

People sick of screaming at the sky … hand of God

I ask myself what kind of man am I

And the person in the mirror reply, a cannon that was canonized

I should be royal like the Taunnenbaums, instead I'm so hard to analyze

I can apologize and you can only pass judgment if you're qualified

Stand strong till they call my numbers, I ain't got a heart

Mama died, closed casket, could be show her face that left for hurt in my heart

Better never be afraid, they try to tell me be strong she's in a better place

That's why the … on my tears, so easy to trick, running like the interstate

my brother had to rock handcuffs after way, so they could avoid the prison break

they tell me love and hate is give and take, if I ain't know how to decision make

I'll prolly have a different faith, not that religious but I'm begging for forgiveness

for some foul business I did in the past with no witness,

and I'm … I could watch it from my hands like a sickness, this is real life

very different from the motion pictures

If you see me walking down the street

And I start to cry each time we meet

Walk on by, walk on by

Make believe it's all that I have been

You leave my heart, the tears and the sadness,

I didn't asked for, but you gave me, oh momma

...If you throw my ass up, if you throw my ass up, if you throw my ass up,

If you throw my ass up, if you throw my ass up.<br />
