Lyrics for Song: Go
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Nelly
Life, what is it for real, I don't know
It's like hate taking over the whole world, what is it over?
Suicide, man, that's the devil trying to control us, they told us
But we didn't notice the pain was sitting on they shoulders
The world was just a polar, the rather live in the solar
System got us hopeless, and focused on foreclosures
Wake up and smell the forgers, oh momma
And bring home the soldiers
Osama, you owe us, the 911 was bogus
Now we right back at him
Say the war is our motive
Wake up early in the streets of the block, streets of the block
He posted up on the corner like a soldier
In the drill but he wouldn't stop
Living life in the battlefield, battlefield
Trying to survive every day and every night, it's the same deal
Life's strange, life's strange, times change, times change
But karma always finds the way
Stay strong, stay strong, hold on, hold on
Don't let all your dreams fade away
Yeah life can beat you down, what goes it comes around
It's not how you hit the ground, it's how fast you get back up
And go, keep going to feel like I'm giving my life away
And it gets hard and harder but happiness is worth the wait
'Cause on my own is a better way
'Cause on my own is a better way
A lot of mothers they just don't understand
They just don't understand
They think we're hard on our sons
But we gotta teach our boys how to be a man
They only know when they walk out the door
When they walk out the door
See we can show 'em how to fire
But they gotta teach themselves how to reload
'Cause unemployment is harder than it's ever been
Sometimes it feels like I can't win
And even through all the rules keep changing
I'm stronger now than I was when I came in
Yeah, life can beat you down, what goes it comes around
It's not how you hit the ground, it's how fast you get back up
And go, keep going to feel like I'm giving my life away
And it gets hard and harder but happiness is worth the wait
'Cause on my own is a better way
'Cause on my own is a better way
Hey, hey, going through the back streets like I got beef
Carnival for carnivores with the sharp teeth
Animalistic it's why we call the cops beast
We're on the hunt, 'cause they're hungry for the dark meat
I'm rapping through my heart beat
Brain is the base, my heart is the drum
Give the drum some, promise of a better life is all I got to give
I ain't just trying to survive, I'm trying to live
'Cause all I want is a better way
Hey, if you're not prepared the world can be so cold
All that you can do is your best and just hope
In time the truth will show, just stick to what you know
Get a grip on something real and never let it go
Go, keep going to feel like I'm giving my life away
And it gets hard and harder but happiness is worth the wait
'Cause on my own is a better way
'Cause on my own is a better way
Go, keep going to feel like I'm giving my life away
And it gets hard and harder but happiness is worth the wait
'Cause on my own is a better way
'Cause on my own is a better way
