Tie My Hands
(专辑: Something Else - 2008)
[Spoken:] We are one with the
universe The
sky is falling and the
only thing that can save us now Is sensitivity and compassion Da Da Da, Da Da Da Da Da Da [x2] oooo [Spoken:] And I
know one thing's for sure (ooooo) I'm gonna get my kicks before it all burns down [Lil Wayne:] Yea, Some say tragedy's hard to get over, But sometimes that tragedy means its over soldier from the
academy leauge of folers I
deny being down Tho they seem to hold us My shoulders are strong I
prove em wrong I
ain't doing nothing but moving on Let the
truth be known But they talk that freedom at us And didn't even leave a
ladder Damn ?
We all got problems, problems ?
No one's going to save us now How you feel, you're not alone We're all just jealous, jealous We don't reach the
sky no more We just cant overcome, noo [Chorus:] Tie my hands, what am i
gonna be What have I
done so bad What is my destiny, ooh You tied my hands, What have I
done so bad [Lil Wayne:] I
knock on the
door hope isn't home Fate's not around the
luck's so gone Don't ask me what's wrong ask me what's right and I'ma tell you what's life And did you know I
lost everything But I
ain't the
only one First came the
hurricane then the
morning sun excuse me if I'm on one and don't trip if i
light one I
walk a
tight one They try to tell me keep my eyes open My whole city under water Some people still floating And they wonder why black people still voting Cause yo president still choking Take away the
football team and the
basketball team and all we got is me to represent New Orleans No governor, no help from the
mayor just a
steady beating heart and a
wish and prayer Let's pray These friends, they come and go But I
got family, family These kids, so fast they grow They learn so quickly now That there's no where to go That there's no future, future Don't make this seem so vogue And we cant overcome [Chorus:] You tie my hands what am I
gonna do what have I
done so bad what is my destiny you tie my hands what am I
supposed to see what have I
done so bad what am I
gonna be [Lil Wayne:] Yea, And if ya come from under that water Then there's fresh air, just breathe baby God's gotta blessing to spare Yes, i
know the
process is so much stress But its the
progress that feels the
best Cause i
came from the
projects Straight to success And you're next so try, they cant steal your pride that's inside Then find it and keep on grinding Cause in every dark cloud there's a
silver lining I
know, Yea, Yea, Yea [Spoken:] See, Right now we just riding on love A
shine in the
dark, we ain't trying to do nothing but hit the
heart We need love. That's all. Yea, Born right here in the
USA. but due to tragedy, looked on by the
whole world as a
refugee so except my emotion, do not take it as an offensive gesture its just the
epitamy of my soul and I
must be me, we got spirit yall we got spirit we got soul yall we got soul they don't want us to see But we already know
