Young Guru - Some How Some Way lyrics

[Hook] (Please believe that) Some how some way We gotta make it up out the hood some day Some how some way We gotta make it up out this life Some how some way We gotta make it up out this life Some way we gotta make it up out this life [Jay-Z] Weather we dribble out this motherf**er Rap metaphors and riddle out this motherf**er Work second floors, hospital out this motherf**er Some how we gotta get up out this motherf**er Some day the cops will k** a motherf**er I don't always want to be this drug dealing Motherf**er damn Wish I could take us all on this magic carpet ride Through the sky I Used to play the hall and fifth floor, me and my boys we All poor getting high I Seen the worst of the worst I deserve every blessing I received I'm from the dirt I planted my seed on unfertile land Myrtle Park Marcy, Flushing and Nostrand and Still I grew some how I knew the sun will shine through And touch my soul take hold of my hand Look man a tree grows in Brooklyn [Hook] Some how some way I gotta make it up out the hood someday Some how some way I gotta make it up out this life Some way I gotta make it up out this hood someday [Beanie Sigel] To old Nell, Sigel street I ain't forget you Twenty n***as on the block trying to chase that buck Nosey neighbors and haters keep their face on stuck Cops roll up on the pavement break the dice games up Moms smoke kids can't chase the ice cream truck Girls fighting over Rollie young boys hype things up n***as fighting over Cold young boys light things up All the petty a** wars f** the night scene up Remember Lil' Eddie man how he light mean up Then they wonder why we light green up Back to back steamers trying to relax but I can't I lean up ain't the L or the refer that steam up It's my head stress to the point I get a fever Thinking bout the block and all the mothers and kids That can't leave and how the Chinks gotta feed'em For the rest of their life f**ing wings fried Vegetable rice(gotta be kidding) No breakfast Cap'n Crunch at night Our kids eating lunch at night In their beds all bunched in tight No less than three or four (you know how it go) Two by the foot two by the headboard Man I'm getting scared for them (Yeah I know) Thats how I feel for them And we gotta grip of shorties on the block All they do is smoke weed and drink forties Cop their quarties Enough to get the latest ROC, newest Glock, and old Jordies [Hook] Some how some way We gonna make it up out the hood someday Some how some way We gonna make it up out this life Some how some way We gonna make it up out the hood one day Some way we gonna make it up out this life [Scarface] Right here another lil' story bout this click I claimed Another chapter based on how I get that game Hanging round my neighborhood and bang my street Sit and watch the pa**er-bys play my sweep South-side sunny side Blocks I run South Acres, South Park n***a all got guns Over here we got this culture, get that there We know tomorrow ain't promise so we get that there f** sitting in the living room guarding the steps Working inside a slum house starving to d**h Serving these n***a flippers, quarter-ounces and zippers Agents snapping your picture Neighbors plotting to get ya Situations is critic I was out here to get it Living it like a savage cause n***a I gotta have it And holding back on the motherf**, I'm in it for the haul dog Erase enough to walk it down and f** it all y'all Lord be willin' and the creek don't rise I'm be a n***a and these streets gonna rise (Some how some way) (Some how some way) I'm be a n***a and these streets gonna rise [Hook] Some how some way We gotta make it up out the hood some day Some how some way We gotta make it up out this life Some how some way We gotta make it up out the hood some day Some way we gotta make it up out this life ** Whistling**
