《Slippin’ Away》歌词

[00:00:00] Slippin' Away (爱已不在) - Brother Ali
[00:00:24] I arrived in Minnesota with handcuff bruises
[00:00:26] Summer ninety deuce prepared to cut loose sh*t
[00:00:29] Mom wasn't having that f**k being cool
[00:00:31] With no discussion stuck me in a suburb school
[00:00:34] Now day and night I'm on a bus full of fools
[00:00:37] Who parents didn't want us ended up in the news
[00:00:39] You must be crazy you think any of us appreciate it
[00:00:42] How our parents wanna upgrade us
[00:00:44] All day long we're in a fantasy land
[00:00:47] Moms and dads college plans and minivans
[00:00:50] But when the sun set you fled the success
[00:00:52] To the slum where you rest nothing more nothing less
[00:00:55] School they fantasize about gangsta rap records
[00:00:57] But these are our lives our families are connected
[00:01:00] The Ice Cube summer vacation is taking place
[00:01:03] Right around the way from where I stay
[00:01:05] The mold from the gold and the 'rips from L A
[00:01:08] Brought snow to the cold for a new place to play
[00:01:10] There's a war going on outside you ain't safe from
[00:01:13] See if this education might save 'em
[00:01:17] I've known you your whole life
[00:01:19] You drawn to that street life
[00:01:22] Slipping away slipping away
[00:01:24] Slipping away slipping away
[00:01:27] I've known you your whole life
[00:01:30] You drawn to that street life
[00:01:32] Slipping away slipping away
[00:01:35] Slipping away slipping away
[00:01:37] And so our little city bus crew used to run together
[00:01:39] Eat lunch together girls Double Dutch together
[00:01:41] Fellas humbugging next day be friends
[00:01:44] The only thing we never did was date from withing
[00:01:47] Fellas dated white girls sisters stayed lonely
[00:01:49] Used to kiss me on my cheek and say we were homies
[00:01:52] Alphonso basement we ran the party
[00:01:55] One day on the bus Pumpking stabs Akey
[00:01:58] Sh*t my main man was Ethan
[00:02:00] Used to sell sneakers at a store called Friedman's
[00:02:03] He had two older cousins that were hustlers
[00:02:05] Filas wasn't all he pumping to the customers
[00:02:08] He got a check but he got connects
[00:02:10] So he got some chicks and he got respect
[00:02:13] His boy Ali got hooked up with clothes
[00:02:16] One day slap boxing he broke my nose
[00:02:18] He almost cried man he had a good heart
[00:02:21] The brother's only problem was he wasn't book smart
[00:02:23] He dropped out of school but he kept slanging shoes
[00:02:26] To keep the kids fed he had to sell base too
[00:02:30] I've known you your whole life
[00:02:32] You drawn to that street life
[00:02:35] Slipping away slipping away
[00:02:37] Slipping away slipping away
[00:02:40] I've known you your whole life
[00:02:42] You drawn to that street life
[00:02:45] Slipping away slipping away
[00:02:47] Slipping away slipping away
[00:02:50] Time to time I used to stop in and check on my dude
[00:02:52] Even when we lost touch with the rest of our crew
[00:02:55] We both had babies drama with our old ladies
[00:02:57] But as time went on our connection only grew
[00:03:00] He said "I just can't seem to leave these streets alone man
[00:03:03] Feels like I fell asleep one evening
[00:03:05] And woke up the next day suddenly a grown man
[00:03:08] In a rut with no idea how to leave it
[00:03:11] My parents got too many kids to help me through
[00:03:13] I really don't know what the hell else to do
[00:03:16] I know you gonna really get it cracking with that rap thing
[00:03:19] And when you blow up I'm a come and work for you"
[00:03:21] Ha that's my man I see you when I see you brother
[00:03:24] Keep your head up 'til the next time we see each other
[00:03:26] Rolled out on my first national tour
[00:03:29] Back on the block went back to the store
[00:03:31] Put my hand on the door Ethan wasn't in though
[00:03:34] They said somebody shot 'em through his front window
[00:03:37] Hit 'em in the head and that he hadn't survived
[00:03:39] Matter fact he died 'fore the ambulance arrived
[00:03:42] A man in that life it wasn't no mistake
[00:03:44] The cops called it a stray bullet closed the case
[00:03:47] So there's no justice and there's no closure
[00:03:50] You can't touch this not you no sir
[00:03:53] They buried my brother I was on the road
[00:03:55] By the time I got home the ground was cold
[00:03:58] Got nothing left but a hole in my soul
[00:04:00] Sh*t dude was 23 years old
[00:04:04] I've known you your whole life
[00:04:06] You drawn to that street life
[00:04:08] Slipping away slipping away
[00:04:11] Slipping away slipping away
[00:04:14] I've known you your whole life
[00:04:16] You drawn to that street life
[00:04:19] Slipping away slipping away
[00:04:22] Slipping away slipping away
[00:04:27] Slipping away slipping away
[00:04:32] Slipping away slipping away
[00:04:38] Slipping away slipping away
