Coolio - On My Way To Harlem

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   
I know a place where the trees don't grow

Just another place where niggaz live low

I know a place where life is fucked up

Make a wrong move and your ass get stuck up



Time ain't nothin' but a frame of mind

And life is like a mountain or a steep ass climb

I've been lookin' for a place to leave

The only free place is inside of me



So let's take a trip, and you don't need a grip

But you better be equipped 'cause it might be some shit

African-American, nothin' but a nigga

Had our fingers on the trigger, but I pulled mine quicker



I know a place where there ain't no calm and

You better stay away if you're soft like Charmin'

South Central, Los Angeles, Watts, and Compton

A nigga on the west coast on his way to Harlem



Now it's time to step into the light

Put up your dukes, there's gonna be a fight

And when it's time to fight, you better fight right

'Cause if it don't fight right, out goes the light



Take a close look at what I'm freakin' on

Niggaz think I'm tweekin', but I'm speakin' on

Subject matter, data

Information that I gather through my travels



'Cause the hardest of the hard, hit hardcore killer

Can't stop the slug of a nine millimeter

Everybody thinks they know, but they know not

If they haven't caught a cap on the block



So shine up your boots and pick up the pieces

Grab a fresh pair of khakis with the sharp ass creases

Ring the alarm, here comes the storm

I got a firearm on my way to Harlem



I know a place where the sun don't shine

Everybody is a victim of neighborhood crime

I know a place where niggaz walk the line

One false step and they must do time



Since I'm in the same boat I must stay afloat

And sing every note from the quotes that they wrote

So, I look into the past and walk the path of the greats

So I wont make the same mistakes that sealed my ancestors fates



If I had to be a slave I'd rather be in my grave

If I get in how many lives could I save?

One, two, three, a hundred, a thousand

My heart is poundin', the devil keeps soundin'



But he don't want my money, he wants my soul

So I reach like a tree, and like a weed I grow

My stomach is full, but my mind is starvin'

Rollin' in a G ride on my way to Harlem
