Reset
Khujo Goodie OutKast Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Nah, nah, nah
That's part of the
That's, yeah
I got ya good that time, shawty

Start over again
Everything happens for a reason
Good doesn't come without pain
Start over again
Everything happens for a reason

Ain't it funny how you're born and then your life begins
Just like a baby all alone, that's if you wasn't a twin
You must begin to fend for self when the umbilical's cut
The doctor put you under the heating lamp, your spirit is touched
You know what, I take that back, why? You was alive
Date of conception, interception cause the sperm did collide
From T and A to DNA, feelings turn to children
The morning after pill didn't put a halt to our very existence
We living, breathing, soon we'll be teething
Our granny got a goal and now we want one for that reason
An adolescent mind is so impressionable in those stages
But parents got to parent their kids to keep them out of cages
Cell therapists beware of this lugie that I spit
Incarceration without rehabilitation really don't mean shit
Little Ricky's home, he gotta serve probation for six months
But Uncle Donnel and Ol' Dirty Bastard still in the joint
Reset

Start over again (uh, uh, that's right)
(That's right, that's right)(come on)
(Uh, that's right, that's right, uh, uh)
Everything happens for a reason (know that)
Good doesn't come without pain (blood than thicker)
(come on, come on)
Start over again (know that)
(I don't care)(come on, come on)
(We gots to do it all over again)(Cotton Club Goodie)
Everything happens for a reason (Cotton Club Goodie, uh uh uh)

Yeah, good does not come without pain (pain)
Meaning, before it gets better, it's going get worse 9worse)
Like my homies on the sick side still dying over turf (sick side)
That don't belong to us (us)
I mean us, left in the dust
Try to catch up with Massa (Massa)
I used to wanna wrap my hands around the esophagus of them crackers
But Ephesians 6:12 said it wasn't flesh and blood that we wrestle against
Principalities, powers of this world (world)
Rulers of darkness and spiritual wickedness
In high places, so throw that whole armor of righteousness
I spark this thing, but my name ain't Bubba (Bubba)
I got a problem with racist cab drivers, like Glover (fuck you doing man? my money good?)
And brothers that wax fat and forget all about the struggle (my money ain't good? Fuck you doing man)
Yeah, come on, come on (fuck you, suck my dick)
Guess what, guess what
Time to reset this thing

Start over again (uh, to the triple 0's, uh, to K-H-U-J-O)
Everything happens for a reason (Big Boi)
Good doesn't come without pain
Start over again
Everything happens for a reason

Listen to me
I awaken to sunlight that's beyond bright
This day will be done right
There is a war, just waiting on the other side of the door
But I'll be bringing God to the gunfight
Can't live forever, so have some fun, right?
Life's a bowl of candy, you can have one, right?
You can handle if tomorrow never comes, right?
You'll get used to singing if only for one night
But I intend to raise two daughters and a son right
And I couldn't have wrote this if I was hopeless
And see I focus to provoke this
So open wide for my opinionated opus
Stop playing Go Fish, but not below this
Before I go, I thought that you all should know this
Recognize and realize before any regretting
Before you relapse, perhaps you'll consider resetting (hm? Hm?)





Start over again
Everything happens for a reason
