Gil Scott-Heron - 95 South (All Of The Places We've Been) lyrics

In my lifetime I've been in towns where there was no freedom or future around. I've been in places where you could not eat or take a drink of water where ever you pleased. And now that I meet you in the middle of a mountain Well, I'm reaching out from within. And all I can think of are chapters and scenes of all of the places we've been. I'm not such an old man so don't get me wrong. I'm the latest survivor of the constantly strong. I've been to Mississippi and down city streets, I've seen days of plenty and nights with nothing to eat. But I'm not too happy 'bout the middle of a mountain so soon I'll be climbing again. 'Cause all I can think of are chapters and scenes of all of the places we've been. I was raised up in a small town in the country down south so I've been close enough to know what oppression's about. Placed on this mountain with a rare chance to see dreams once envisioned by folks much braver than me. And since their lives got me to the middle of a mountain Well, I can't stop and give up on them. 'Cause their lights that shine on inspire me to climb on from all of the places we've been. From all of the places we've been, From all of the places we've been alot of places, yeah From all of the places we've been, Been down, been down, been down, alot of roads and places All of the places...
