《This Ain’t Living》歌词

[00:00:00] This Ain't Living (这不是生活) - G. Love & Special Sauce (基爱 & 加料乐团)

[00:00:45] This town's so hype it's got soul

[00:00:47] As a philly cat

[00:00:49] I'm with the roll

[00:00:50] And the swing of my things

[00:00:52] How they work like clockwork

[00:00:53] Tick tock tick tock

[00:00:55] Times always lurking in your head

[00:00:57] Got to go to work and get fed

[00:00:59] That man didn't eat but he goes to sleep

[00:01:02] Gets up at dawn not to see the sunrise

[00:01:04] But because it's too damn cold outside

[00:01:07] Underneath the bridge they pump the city's bilge

[00:01:10] Into the alley they sweep the city's filth

[00:01:13] The flowers wilt the flowers wilt

[00:01:16] Don't tell me about no game

[00:01:18] Cause that is a man

[00:01:19] And his family

[00:01:20] Revolution family

[00:01:22] Look at the family

[00:01:23] Dig the family

[00:01:25] They're living the wrong way

[00:01:26] Can't get nothing

[00:01:28] Don't get nothing all they wanted was

[00:01:30] Something like a job - mercy mercy

[00:01:32] But it's been robbed - mercy mercy

[00:01:35] And there's so many street side

[00:01:37] Beggars and disabled veterans

[00:01:39] Glass-eyed and peddling

[00:01:41] Drunk and just meddling

[00:01:43] So you conclude it's their fault

[00:01:44] They like the street they must like the asphalt

[00:01:47] But that is man woman and children

[00:01:49] The system has stalled shelter's home

[00:01:51] That's not what I call it

[00:01:53] I call it bad health

[00:01:54] Some say help themselves

[00:01:56] Yo if you you gots it

[00:01:58] Every hundred people that's a dollar in change

[00:02:04] Every hundred people that's a dollar in change

[00:02:09] This ain't living

[00:02:12] This ain't living

[00:02:47] Oh no

[00:02:48] You know it's rough, had enough of holding a

[00:02:50] Cup full of spare change

[00:02:51] The doctor diagnosed me as a

[00:02:52] Dome full of bad brains

[00:02:53] So, toe to toe with employers

[00:02:55] Cause they're telling me no

[00:02:57] Hooked on prescription drugs

[00:02:58] So I stay broke, I'd run away

[00:03:00] But you can't run away from

[00:03:02] Yourself or your health so

[00:03:03] I deal with the cards that I'm dealt

[00:03:05] Tweet-a-leet-leet

[00:03:06] The morning bird sounding sweet

[00:03:08] Though I sleep on the streets

[00:03:10] I have a feeling I'm free

[00:03:11] From society's hand picked hypocrisy

[00:03:14] Mercy mercy, don't give a damn for me

[00:03:17] Mercy mercy, now what am I going to eat

[00:03:20] Peek through the windows of the restaurant

[00:03:22] People eating caviar fifty bucks on lunch

[00:03:24] A hand-me-down meal

[00:03:26] Full of God knows what

[00:03:27] Put it away in my gut

[00:03:29] Quick and then I wonder

[00:03:30] Why I'm sick, brick for brick

[00:03:32] I know the city like my hand print

[00:03:34] Just a pit in the gutter

[00:03:36] Of a skid-row ditch

[00:03:37] But I'll survive the pain

[00:03:38] Lets me know I'm alive

[00:03:40] But I still feel that

[00:03:44] This ain't living

[00:04:34] Check my beat dig my rhythm

[00:04:37] Me belly full but me hungry so me fill it

[00:04:39] Once I start gaining taxes start taking

[00:04:42] Cause the governments perfected funk faking

[00:04:45] Breaking me down striking me down

[00:04:48] What goes around comes around but

[00:04:50] I keep rising seeing through the lies and

[00:04:52] The surprise comes when I see myself

[00:04:55] The music I felt

[00:04:56] I'm on

[00:04:57] This ain't living

[00:04:59] This ain't living

[00:05:02] Oh no This ain't living This ain't living Oh no
