Coolio
See You When You Get There
[00:48]Now I've seen places and faces
[00:50]And things you ain't never thought about thinking
[00:52]If you ain't peek then you must be drinking
[00:54]And smokin'
[00:55]Pretending that you're lokin' but you're brokin'
[00:57]Let me get you open now
[00:58]Little Timmy got his diploma
[01:00]And little Jimmy got life
[01:01]And Tamika 'round the corner
[01:02]Just took her first hit off the pipe
[01:04]The other homey shot the other homey
[01:05]And ran away with his money
[01:07]And when the other homies heard about it
[01:08]They thought it was funny
[01:10]But who's the dummy
[01:11]Now you done lost the hustler
[01:12]A down-ass brother got replaced by a busta
[01:15]And though I got love for ya
[01:16]I know I can't trust you
[01:17]'Cuz my crew is rollin' home and your crew is rollin' dusta
[01:20]And just because of that you act you don't like a brother no more
[01:23]I guess that's just the way it goes
[01:25]I ain't tryin' to preach
[01:26]I believe I can reach
[01:28]But your mind ain't prepared
[01:30]I'll see you when you get there
(Chorus)
[01:31]I'll see you when you get there
[01:35]If you ever get there
[01:38]See you when you get there
[01:41]I'll see you when you get there
[01:46]If you ever get there
[01:49]See you when you get there
[01:52]More temptation and faith
[01:53]I guess we livin' for the day
[01:54]I seen a man get swept off his feet
[01:56]By a boy with an AK
[01:57]The situation so twisted
[01:58]Everybody gettin lifted
[02:00]I'm just tryin to take care of my kids
[02:02]And handle my business
[02:03]'Cuz it's way too serious
[02:04]So you gotta pay close attention
[02:05]So you don't get caught sittin'
[02:07]When they come and do all the gettin'
[02:08]Life is a big game so you gotta play it with a big horse
[02:11]Someone's gotta run a little faster
[02:12]'Cuz we gotta lay the struggle
[02:14]I'd be a fool to surrender
[02:15]When I know I can be a contender
[02:16]And if everybody's a contender
[02:18]Then everybody could be a winner
[02:19]No matter you rag collar
[02:20]Deep down we all brothers
[02:21]And regardless of the time
[02:23]Somebody up there still love us
[02:24]I'm gonna scuff and struggle y'all
[02:25]Breathless and weak
[02:27]I just strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peak
[02:29]Always keep reaching sure to grab on to something
[02:32]I'll be there when you get there
[02:34]When you wit the sound bumpin'
(Chorus)
[02:35]I'll see you when you get there
[02:39]If you ever get there
[02:42]See you when you get there
[02:46]I'll see you when you get there
[02:50]If you ever get there
[02:53]See you when you get there
[03:07]You need to loosen up
[03:08]And live a little
[03:09]And if ya got kids let them know how you feelin'
[03:11]For your own sake give a little
[03:13]Oh, you don't want to hear that
[03:14]You busy tryin' to stack
[03:15]And keep up with the Jones's is taking advantage of your own
[03:18]The realist homeys that you've been knowin' for the longest
[03:20]But some ain't missing a good thing until it's gone
[03:22]Could have built an empire
[03:24]If not for the jelousy that you righteous
[03:25]We prefer to keep our eyes shut to describe
[03:27]When it's something wrong and we desire
[03:29]So hold your head up high
[03:30]If your poor and righteous
[03:31]I know time seems right
[03:32]The problems seem endless
[03:33]Put the time to this fairly we gotta pull ourselves together
[03:36]And if you feel you're out the game
[03:37]Then you need to get back in it
[03:39]'Cuz nothing worse than a quitter
[03:40]You gotta face responsibility
[03:42]One day, my brother
[03:43]So gather up your pity and turn it to ambition
[03:46]And put your vehicle and drive and stop by my side
(Chorus)
[03:49]I'll see you when you get there
[03:54]If you ever get there
[03:56]See you when you get there
[04:00]I'll see you when you get there
[04:05]If you ever get there
[04:07]See you when you get there
[04:11]As we walk down the road of our destiny
[04:14]And the time comes to choose, what shall it be?
[04:17]The wide and crooked or straight 'n narrow
[04:19]We got one push to give
[04:20]And one life to live
[04:22]Stand up for something or lay down in your game
[04:25]Listen to the song that we sing
[04:28]It's up to you to make it big
[04:30]I guess I'll see you
[04:31]When you see me
(Chorus)
[04:32]I'll see you when you get there
[04:40]If you wanna get there
[04:43]I'll see you when you get there
[04:50]If you wanna get there
[04:53]I'll see you when you get there
[05:01]If you wanna get there
[05:04]I'll see you when you get there
[05:11]If you wanna get there
[05:15]I'll see you when you get there
[05:22If you wanna get there
[05:25]I'll see you when you get there
