To Be Determined
(专辑: The Layover EP - 2008)
("Rain keeps on fallin") [Intro: Evidence] Where I'm from, they say the
sun shine all the
time I
keep seein rain.. yeah [Evidence] Uh, squeezin blood from a
rock Makin something out of nothing, that's something I
got That's one thing I
had, while the
others didn't get it They was chasin the
world, I
brought it right to my block Brought it back with a
oath: stay reppin my coast POOF! I
was blowin the
spot, without knowin or not Not knowin a
thing, tryin to prove the
most Made it open my lane, I
found my slot They went right, E-V went left So (Common), (One Day It'll All Make Sense) Soundbombing, no way we'll all make ends Survival of the
fit, a
few win, but most quit Or fend for themselves, so here's to good health Here's to drama, two up and one of 'em fell (watch out) "Hear, hear" to that, this is for my LA Cats & Dogs who never left, to the
world we back, c'mon [Chorus: Aloe Blacc (Evidence)] Mmmmm, sometimes I
ask myself, "Why would I
need anyone else?" (To be determined) To make it through this life when everyday's a
brand new fight {Nothing to lose!} I
have struggled in every single muscle, always on the
hustle (and I
know) and I
know I
can't make it.. on my own [Elzhi] Had visions of bein caked up on the
Island while the
weather's freezin Whether he's in, the
French Caribbean, swimmin with amphibians or in Hawaii blowin Maui Wowie, life is good I
dodge bullet grazes, slash the
knifes that coulda ended my existence For instance, through the
persistence that distances, me from the
number of statistics Once, a
lot smaller, lookin up to shot callers Not ballers, they never grew up, just got taller Tryna find freedom in a
trap, hungry for success They eat up, this food for thought I
feed 'em in a
rap I'm takin trips to France, make it rain where the
strippers dance They unzip the
pants, grippin my money clips in hands It was hell, I
thought I
saw demons hidin in lost souls Straight out the
evil books inside of my far scrolls They say you should toss goals, throw away your dreams when nothing go your way, it seems it's done or, you feelin unsure Yet this what this one's for [Aloe Blacc] Push as hard as you want, against the
wall bro Push the
wrong dude, they'll be lookin for you like Waldo Times is harder than before when it was fun and games When we was just spittin rhymes, tryna get a
bigger name Now car notes involved and bills require grindin Who'da ever thought that Aloe Blacc get back to rhymin Street philosophers could theorize it's all timing Economist would say it's kinda rough to find a
diamond And all the
silver lining in the
clouds couldn't change The
simple fact that it pours when it rains all more of the
same And my score in the
game, let it reflect that I
earned every little bit of respect I
get [Outro: Aloe Blacc] Ohhh, it's time Get up off the
wall, cross that line My momma told me that every flower needs rain shower, like it needs sunshine (Rest in peace ma) I
know I
can make it You know you can make it, We can make it If you get on yo' griiiiiiiind.. [Evidence] Rain keeps fallin down Music by ALC
