《Better Days(Explicit)》歌词

[00:00:00] Better Days (explicit) - WC

[00:00:20] Nineteen-ninety-eight damn I can't believe it

[00:00:22] Whoever thought throughout the drama we'd live to see it

[00:00:25] So many of us done lost lives to the streets

[00:00:27] As we reminisce I'm pourin liquor for the deceased

[00:00:29] Thinkin bout the times that I spent with many of em

[00:00:32] Hopin that the Lord let me see the millenium

[00:00:34] Trapped in this ghetto main seekin better days

[00:00:37] Fightin for my conscience tryin to shake these wicked ways

[00:00:39] I know it's wrong but it's hard to change

[00:00:41] All my life all I ever knew was hustle and game

[00:00:44] Lookin for answers ever since I was a adolescent

[00:00:46] Faced with rejection early age stressin

[00:00:49] But now ten years later with doodoo respect

[00:00:51] I'm bustin million dollar raps and six digit checks

[00:00:53] Showin love to my peeps and my love don't change

[00:00:58] Might sound strange but I just can't run away

[00:01:05] I can't run run it might sound strange

[00:01:10] But I just can't run away

[00:01:15] I can't run no run away

[00:01:18] Touch a meal ticket shake a spot for good

[00:01:20] Never I still got love for the neighborhood

[00:01:23] And even though now it's infested with gunplay

[00:01:25] On most days like Bootsy I can't stay away

[00:01:28] Cause if I shook like y'all shook on me

[00:01:30] Then whose gon' stay and guide the way for the lil homies

[00:01:33] I can't turn my head on my folks

[00:01:35] So I stay visible in these streets and try to give hope

[00:01:37] Born in the ghetto raised in the ghetto

[00:01:39] Got love for the ghetto I can't forget the ghetto

[00:01:42] How come everytime we get some change in our can

[00:01:44] We run away and try to move out as far as we can

[00:01:47] I know that jealousy's the devil's greed but you worse

[00:01:49] Than a devil when you turn your back on these young G's

[00:01:52] Now feel every word that I say hear my cry

[00:01:54] As I struggle out of thirst and search for better days

[00:01:56] Might sound strange but I just can't run away

[00:02:03] I can't run run run away

[00:02:08] Said I just can't run away

[00:02:12] I can't run run run away

[00:02:18] No I just can't run away

[00:02:23] I can't run run runnnnnn away

[00:02:27] Another day another dollar it feels good to look around

[00:02:29] And see I'm surrounded by real riders

[00:02:30] Childhood comrades I ran with for years

[00:02:33] Shared the same beer and tears over the same peers

[00:02:35] Player haters swearin that all we all G's

[00:02:37] Off each others strength with these regulates the same cheese

[00:02:40] No jealousy we all family like Sister Sledge

[00:02:42] Lace each other with game so I can spin beer cans

[00:02:45] Watch our kids grow together as we get old together

[00:02:47] Loc I mean this let no one come in between this

[00:02:50] Keep our business among us behind doors and eyes closed

[00:02:53] On those we consider as foes

[00:02:54] Outsiders never exposed to your hustle

[00:02:56] Plus I'm never been one likely to trust em

[00:02:59] No negative association just dedication

[00:03:02] To watch our paper sprout like this bud mutation

[00:03:04] Might sound strange but I just can't run away

[00:03:11] I can't run run run away

[00:03:16] No I just can't run away

[00:03:21] I can't run I can't runnnnnnn away

[00:03:25] No I just can't run away

[00:03:30] I can't run run run run runnnnnn away
