|
| [00:22.15] |
Tenement buildings and skyscrapers |
| [00:24.84] |
Are polluted and often invaded |
| [00:27.52] |
With troubled hearts and weakened minds |
| [00:30.27] |
Living their lives and hoping to find |
| [00:33.02] |
The golden key to prosperity |
| [00:35.40] |
Never have a grip on reality |
| [00:38.40] |
This makes day to day living hard |
| [00:41.15] |
Trumpin' your fate never peepin' the card |
| [00:43.88] |
You just goin' through life without a trace |
| [00:46.38] |
When the answers you seek |
| [00:47.77] |
Are in front of your face |
| [00:48.97] |
You're blind you're blind |
| [00:55.16] |
|
| [00:58.78] |
Tell 'em D |
| [00:59.91] |
You're headed for the top or so you think |
| [01:02.66] |
But that's not true for you your life is on the brink |
| [01:05.30] |
Of self-destruction total corruption |
| [01:08.30] |
You better get out or die from consumption |
| [01:11.05] |
Sweat for a dollar to get nothin' back |
| [01:13.61] |
'Cause at the end of the week you still get taxed |
| [01:16.36] |
You'd even sell your soul to make your life correct |
| [01:19.12] |
But with the rate of inflation you should eat your check |
| [01:21.75] |
So you try to make a hustle to get ahead |
| [01:24.56] |
But the only thing you manage is to stay in the red |
| [01:27.43] |
Coppin' from John to sell to Rex |
| [01:30.12] |
And your jones for success has put your life in check |
| [01:32.82] |
You're blind you're blind |
| [01:40.01] |
And you can't see |
| [01:41.01] |
You need to wear some glasses |
| [01:42.45] |
Like D M C |
| [01:43.48] |
You're blind |
| [01:44.41] |
|
| [02:05.73] |
So you think the facts means you can't win |
| [02:08.04] |
So you devote your time to a life of sin |
| [02:11.22] |
Hangin' out late is how you survive |
| [02:13.83] |
Makin' deals talkin' jive and tellin' lies |
| [02:16.58] |
Pressure beatin' you down like you're not handlin' |
| [02:19.46] |
And all the while your mind is ramblin' |
| [02:22.31] |
About bein' fly or even sly |
| [02:24.74] |
And bein' held low in the public eye |
| [02:27.43] |
You decide these things |
| [02:28.93] |
But you don't know why you're standin' on a corner |
| [02:31.62] |
Cold playin' the post |
| [02:32.93] |
'Cause another sucker said you were chillin' the most |
| [02:35.60] |
You're blind you're blind |
| [02:44.54] |
|
| [02:45.28] |
Yo you can't see |
| [02:46.54] |
You need to wear some glasses |
| [02:47.97] |
Like D M C |
| [02:49.29] |
You're blind you're blind |
| [02:55.78] |
|
| [03:00.35] |
You run 'round talkin' 'bout what you hate |
| [03:03.03] |
Livin' your life just to perpetrate |
| [03:05.54] |
You think your style is chill because you're always cold |
| [03:08.54] |
With your platform shoes and your fake gold |
| [03:11.29] |
So you think you're bad sheer dynamite |
| [03:13.80] |
But if you only knew |
| [03:14.92] |
The crew called you freak's delight |
| [03:16.61] |
Wearin' the tightest jeans and shortest skirt |
| [03:19.42] |
You think you're cold chillin' lookin' like a jerk |
| [03:22.10] |
No matter what you do come out second rate |
| [03:24.82] |
Thinkin' you're on time but you're already late |
| [03:27.69] |
You're blind you're blind |
| [03:34.82] |
And you can't see |
| [03:35.81] |
You need to wear some glasses |
| [03:37.12] |

The moral to the story may not be clear |
| [04:08.51] |
And the only way to catch it is to lend a ear |
| [04:10.96] |
Stop frontin' so hard |
| [04:12.71] |
Why don't you peep your card |
| [04:14.21] |
And your goals in life may not be far |
| [04:16.70] |
Because these words I say |
| [04:18.00] |
Are meant for you to hear |
| [04:19.31] |
So if you bust these facts you will persevere |
| [04:22.19] |
You're blind you're blind |
| [04:28.56] |
|
| [04:29.44] |
And you can't see |
