Heaven,is there a chance that you could come down |
| [00:18.28] |
And open doors to hurtin'people like me |
| [00:22.53] |
People like me,people like me |
| [00:30.78] |
People like me,people like me |
| [00:35.97] |
Is it fair to say that I am stressing out? |
| [00:38.41] |
I'm stationed in Iraq and they won't let me out |
| [00:41.47] |
My homeys said I was stupid for even joining |
| [00:44.47] |
My counselor said that my decision was disappointing |
| [00:47.60] |
How she had good slate for good state colleges |
| [00:50.91] |
And with my good grades it wouldn't have been a problem |
| [00:54.04] |
But they don't understand just the power of significance |
| [00:56.29] |
More than brilliance and certainly more than dividends |
| [01:00.04] |
And if you ask me now,would I repeat it? |
| [01:03.10] |
Would I fight in a war I don't believe in? |
| [01:05.72] |
Well,the answer is if not me where the cancer is |
| [01:09.16] |
They been doing this before Jesus of Nazareth |
| [01:12.72] |
And after all this time it is still deadly hazardous |
| [01:15.79] |
And Bush isn't really being all that inaccurate |
| [01:17.98] |
When he says,we're winning the war 'cause it's staggering |
| [01:21.41] |
But thats 'cause we're killing everybody that we see |
| [01:24.60] |
And most of us soldiers we can barely fall asleep |
| [01:26.98] |
And time and time again I'm feeling incompetent |
| [01:29.29] |
'Cause my women back home,we're constantly arguing |
| [01:32.04] |
And I must be crazy 'cause all I'm obsessing with is |
| [01:35.91] |
Her MySpace and face book and who's commenting |
| [01:38.79] |
I swear to God if she's cheatin'I'm doin'her ass in |
| [01:42.73] |
I can tell with one look and it came to me |
| [01:45.29] |
Sounding something like a song hook,sayin' |
| [01:48.66] |
Heaven,is there a chance that you could come down |
| [01:55.94] |
And open doors to hurtin'people like me |
| [01:58.38] |
People like me,people like me |
| [02:02.50] |
People like me,people like me |
| [02:11.21] |
Meet Sarah,the proud mother of young Sebastian |
| [02:14.84] |
Suburban professional went to college in Ashton |
| [02:17.46] |
In self pity she suddenly cried |
| [02:21.09] |
Would my life be important if I suddenly died? |
| [02:23.72] |
Neighbors saying what a nice women she was |
| [02:27.03] |
Keeping mostly to herself ever since the divorce |
| [02:29.09] |
And with the company down sizin'and the fall and all |
| [02:32.91] |
She really shouldn't take it that personal at all |
| [02:35.84] |
It wasn't her boss who had his eyes on her thighs |
| [02:39.22] |
And got a rise from her risin'off the desk though |
| [02:42.03] |
And despite rememberin'sayin'no plenty of times |
| [02:45.09] |
It was still a damn surprise being let go |
| [02:48.09] |
And now stuck with a mortgage she can't afford |
| [02:50.91] |
And too educated to blame the corporate world |
| [02:53.10] |
She got on welfare and hated it,case work a power trippin' |
| [02:57.28] |
And generally being degraded |
| [02:59.10] |
If nothing else she was treated sick |
| [03:02.34] |
And ineffective which is the worst thing |
| [03:05.28] |
That she'd been left with |
| [03:06.66] |
Damn,no magic from David Blane |
| [03:10.22] |
No painter to pain this pain |
| [03:11.84] |
No Morgan Freeman to narrate the shame |
| [03:15.10] |
So she took refuge and prayer |
| [03:17.04] |
Kinda like findin'God in the phone book |
| [03:19.66] |
And it came to her |
| [03:20.91] |
Sounding something like a song hook,sayin' |
| [03:23.91] |
Heaven,is there a chance that you could come down |
| [03:31.02] |
And open doors to hurtin'people like me |
| [03:34.27] |
People like me,people like me |
| [03:39.29] |
People like me,people like me |
| [03:44.10] |
I guess,I told you about myself to a degree |
| [03:51.23] |
Just by telling you about people like me |
| [03:54.23] |
But people like me they speak politely |
| [03:56.85] |
They don't start no beef or piece of white meat |
| [04:00.48] |
Everybody gotta eat but everybody doesn't |
| [04:02.23] |
Which is why I want to tell you about my favorite cousin |
| [04:06.48] |
He and I grew up where the sun shines |
| [04:08.73] |
And we both partook with the gun crimes |
| [04:11.41] |
And we both liked American rap rhymes |
| [04:14.86] |
Even though we didn't understand one line |
| [04:17.86] |
If you remember my line of notes in my last album |
| [04:21.23] |
I talked about a close call with a grenade |
| [04:24.17] |
I think we both must have been about seventh grade |
| [04:27.23] |
But don't panic we both survived without damage |
| [04:29.48] |
But we developed a bond like we survived the Titanic |
| [04:32.73] |
So when the country became frantic |
| [04:34.23] |
My mother tried to get us out,planned it |
| [04:37.30] |
To the last detail except the plan got derailed |
| [04:39.80] |
'Cause there wasn't enough money for the plane tickets |
| [04:43.05] |
How bitter when my mother had to chose who to take with her |
| [04:47.67] |
So my cousin got left in the war and that's just hard to recall |
| [04:52.17] |
But now I take refuge and prayer |
| [04:54.48] |
Kinda like finding God in the phone book it came to me |
| [04:58.17] |
Sounding something like a song hook,sayin' |
| [04:59.92] |
Heaven,is there a chance that you could come down |
| [05:12.92] |
And open doors to hurtin'people like me |
| [05:15.61] |
People like me,people like me |
| [05:17.80] |
People like me,people like me |
| [05:24.49] |
Heaven,is there a chance that you could come down |
| [05:30.11] |
And open doors to hurtin'people like me |
| [05:33.05] |
People like me,people like me |
| [05:38.80] |
People like me,people like me |
