Find Your Way
B.J. Crosby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You see many of us lookin' for
Somethin' words can really not explain
Yeah, although many of us come and go
I always knew that I would find a way
I put my city on my back
Lookin' for another path
Yeah, although many of us come and go
I always knew that I would find a way

Too cold to catch a flu
Too hot to give a fuck
Too late to give it back
Too high to come down
Too wrong to be right
Too vert to get a 'lac
Too strapped to get attacked
Too church for these slacks
This the type of habitat
Where thriving blacks hard to find where niggas at
I got money on my head
Say my prayers, go to bed
Wind up dead, what I', thinkin'
Tryin' not to end up dead
Had the idea, buzzin' right here
Fuck a light year
Tables done turned, fucked up IKEA
Love to daydream but work the night shift
Now who gon' help us? Who gon' help us?
The red and the white and the blue has failed us
I can't promise I'mma make it better
But I can show you how to be successful
The poor get poorer, the rich get richer
Lives are lost, too much to measure
We all tryna make it up from the bottom
But nowadays, the bottom's lower than ever

You see many of us lookin' for
Somethin' words can really not explain
Yeah, although many of us come and go
I always knew that I would find a way

From the jungles of East Atlanta
You motherfuckers don' fucked up
Players always fuck up at the wrong time
Oh, and will they rise and say no
And will they mind to say no
And will they rise and say no
And we ain't livin' by the same code

You see many of us lookin' for
Somethin' words can really not explain
Yeah, although many of us come and go
I always knew that I would find a way
I put my city on my back
Lookin' for another path




Yeah, although many of us come and go
I always knew that I would find a way
