It's On
Doug E. Fresh Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Have you thought about it
We can talk about it

We can talk about life
We can talk about pain
And we can talk about the game
We can speak on whats true
We can talk about me, we can talk about you
Tell me what you wanna do
I know you waiting on your turn
I brought something we can burn
I don't speak on what I earn
But I can tell you what I learned yeah
I figured out true love is a rare thing
Machine started most people just ain't seen
I understand that the hate made me smarter
But I'm trying to reach a point where I learn to love harder
It's no fun when you faking on your feelings
My mind runs even when my body chillin'
And bad times gon' come that's a given
If you down to make it through
I swear I'm ready and I'm willing
They say pain can inspire a change
I lost my auntie I swear I ain't been actin' the same
And niggas that I made throwin' dirt on my name
When boys turn to men you can stand the rain
That's why I love bad weather I love this pressure
Fold I'll never break I'll never they hate how ever
My life just better than anybody tryin' to front on my shit
Fuck boy
I'm sorry I'm different when I'm a hundred million of them
Maybe people will get it
I always been about speaking things to existence
I rep for anybody that believe in they vision
I see things that they just can't see
Did I become something that they just can't be
They say that the best things in life are free
And talk is cheap it's only two cents you keep
So I let mines go if the stocks arise
Maybe you can profit off what I prophesize
I mean what I say I won't waste your time
And my number one fear is me wasting mine
People like you are just hard to find
And people like me are almost extinct
And when people like us just happen to link
There's no telling what you could see

We can talk about it
