Coolio Lyrics

Album: It Takes A Thief

Can O Corn Lyrics

Now I've seen places and faces

and things you ain't never thought about thinkin'

if you ain't peeped then you must be drinkin' and smokin'

pretending not to loc' in but you're broken

let me get you open

now little timmy got his diploma and little jimmy got life

and tamika round the corner just took her first hit off the pipe

the other homie shot the other homie and ran off with his 20

and when the other homies heard about it they thought that it was funny

but who's the dummy, cause you just lost a hustler

a down ass brother been replaced by a buster

and though I got love for you, I know I can't trust you

my crew is rolling hummers and your crew is rolling dusters

and just because of that you act like you don't like a brother no more

I guess that's just the way it go

I ain't tryin'to preach, I believe I can reach

but your mind ain't prepared

I'll c u when u get there

I'LL SEE YOU WHEN YOU GET THERE

IF YOU EVER GET THERE

SEE YOU WHEN YOU GET THERE

I'LL SEE YOU WHEN YOU GET THERE

IF YOU EVER GET THERE

SEE YOU WHEN YOU GET THERE

more temptation than faith

I guess we're livin' for the day

I seen a man get swept off his feet by a boy with an ak

the situation so twisted everybody gettin' lifted

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

cause it's way to serious, so you gotta pay close attention

so you don't get caught slipin' when they come and do all the gettin'

life is a big game, so you gotta play it with a big heart

some of us gotta run a little faster, cause we gotta lay the start

but I'd be a fool to surrender when I know I can be a contender

and if everybody's a sinner then everybody could be a winner

no matter you rag color deep down we all brothers

an regardless of the time somebody up there stil love us

I' gonna scuffle and struggle until I'm breathless and weak

I just strived my whole life to make to the mountain peakalways keep reaching be sure to grab hold of something

I'll be there when you get there when you wit the sounds bumpin'

I'LL SEE YOU WHEN YOU GET THERE

IF YOU EVER GET THERE

SEE YOU WHEN YOU GET THERE

SEE YOU WHEN YOU GET THERE

IF YOU EVER GET THERE

SEE YOU WHEN YOU GET THERE

you need to loose up

and live a little

and if you got kids let them know how you feel

and for your own sake give a littleoh, you don't wanna hear that

you busy tryin' to stack

and keep up with the Jones' taking advance of your own

the realest homies that you've been knowin'for the lomgest

but some ain't missing a good thing until

it's gone

could have build an empire if not for the jeaulousy that devides us

we prefer to keep our eyes shut to describe whenit' something wrong and we desireso hold your head up high if you're poor and righteous

and you fell you're out the game then you need to get back in it

cause nothing worse than a quitter

I know time seems strife

and the problems seem endless

but at times of despair we gotta pull ourselves together

you gotta face responsibility one day, my brotherso gather up your pity and turn in to ambition

and put your vehicle in drive and stop by my side

AS WE WALK DOWN THE ROAD OF OUR DESTINY

AND THE TIMES COME TO CHOOSE WHICH IT GONNA BE

THE WIDE AND CROOKED, OR THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW

WE GOT ONE PUSH TO GIVE AND ONE LIFE TO LIVE

STAND UP FOR SOMETHING OR LIE DOWN IN YOUR GAME

LISTEN TO THE SONG WE SING

IT'S UP TO YOU TO MAKE IT BIG

I GUESS I'LL SEE YOU WHEN YOU SEE ME
