(Sample) Bill Withers - "Don't You Want To Stay" "Busy hanging curtains Children in the way Whoaaaa!! That's what the future holds with me Don't you want to stay?" [Planetary] Back in the days on the boulevard I use to take small steps cuz the hood was hard Use to walk down fifth to anoint the street Use to play rock this funky joint in my sleep Always wanted low sweats Addidas stripes Use to chill conversate wit all the thieves at night I done been thru a lot, dun seen a whole lot Done cracked many jars and put food in the spot Seen my grandfather get buried in a box Dun seen pop cry, seen shots fly n***a I came up raw, living wit these stains and scars My parents separating was hard I don't speak on it much, it's nobody's bidness But I don't eva lose touch, I maintain my pivot I been thru the scrabbling, lost all gambling Selling CD's like I'm poor panhandling I walk street wit a chip on my shoulder Cuz I know life's hard and I can only get older I remember what a wise men told us: Fight back like you drunk but think straight like you're sober
(Sample) Bill Withers - "Don't You Want To Stay" [Crypt the Warchild] I wanna know what the future hold? Will I be subject to numbers? Will I lose my soul? Will I lose those who love me as I move the globe? If I'm gon' on the road will I lose my home? I made my sacrifices gotta deal wit the devil On the verge of losing my mind I let it settle I seen it all thru the eye of a needle I came across n***as who murdered their own people I talk to an Angel she told me to be peaceful There's a lil man at home and in life he will need you I'mma break the cycle on the outside looking in Trying to contain the Beast that rages within Trying to seize the grieve that races within Trying to release the pain that cages us in You ain't nobody till somebody hates you And if word gets around it'll probably make you Here comes a black cloud they no longer escape you You had some brighter days so you praying to Jesus You get one life; I only wish I could take two And turn back time and realize what these snakes do (Sample) Bill Withers - "Don't You Want To Stay"
