Pollution
Sometimes, I wanna get away
From all the confusion causin' pollution
I know you wish you could run away
From this substitution
'Cuz there's no solution to survive
Another day when I'm wakin' up
I turn on my TV on CNN
(Yeah)
Another homie done bit the dust
My best friends back up in da pen
Somebody hit the twin towers before
And the buildings came tumblin' down
All we could do is watch the tears while the people of America
Wondered how we let it go down
Then I heard a sound when I turned around
This old man said, "Pray for me"
(What he say?)
Said I have been in this world for eighty eight long years
And my nanas can stay for me
(What chu do)
I looked him in his eyes
And gave him a smile
I said, "Mister I don't mean no harm"
But you ain't goin' nowhere
So just pull up a chair
I got green fresh off the farm
(What happened?)
An' with that he pulled a bottle
From his pocket and said young'n ima
Give it a try
(Give it a try boy)
I said, "Hold up pops I ain't forget 'bout the nada that you promised"
So go and pass it by
Then he said
"Sometimes I wanna get away
From all the confusion causin' pollution
I know you wish you could run away
From this substitution
'Cuz there's no solution to survive"
From dusk to dawn Mom's always telling me
You must move on let the past be the last thing that dusts you son
And I trust you mom but that doesn't dif my luvs for fun
Wanna bus' my gun wasn't much to some
Didn't measure up to most
Started walking down the road to the
Treasure off the coast you just never fuckin' know
What your gonna see who your gonna be who your gonna meet
It's true your gonna be sleeping slippin' into silence
Shotguns firin', choppers and sirens
Spotlights shine flashin' on the glance
And a poke a doted chance and
A devil doin' the dance
Then
I know you wanna run away
(Haa aaa aaa)
I know you wanna run away
(Haa aaa aaa)
I know you wanna run away
(Haa aaa aaa)
I know you wanna run away
(Haa aaa aaa)
I'm just sayin' dog
Livin' my life shinin' hopin'
I'm just sayin dog
Just chasin' the dreams that I be hopin'
I'm just sayin' dog
Something that will make you laugh
That will make you cry
That's how in goes may why ask why
I'm just sayin dog
To take me away from my frustration
I'm just sayin' dog
To teach me to use my 'magination
I'm just sayin' dog
Something that will make you laugh
That will make you cry
That's how it goes man why ask why
Sometimes I wanna get away
From all the confusion causin' pollution
I know you wish you could run away
From this substitution
Cuz there's no solution to survive
Oh
