[00:00.00]Been This Way Before (Rap) - Roger
[00:20.27]Well I been on the scene
[00:21.59]For a mighty long time
[00:22.70]I never use ***
[00:23.87]Because I find
[00:25.29]It meant destruction
[00:26.07]To some friends of mine
[00:27.97]D**e is mean
[00:28.99]D**e is unkind
[00:30.45]Just like a bad dream
[00:31.55]Always on my mind
[00:38.09]But from a bad dream
[00:39.30]You will awake
[00:40.08]Taking ***
[00:40.77]Is the final mistake
[00:42.71]I tripped about ***
[00:43.87]And this story I tell
[00:45.10]So listen all you people
[00:46.44]And listen well
[00:52.29]Well it seems to me
[00:54.25]That I been this way before
[00:55.58]I seen these sights
[00:56.52]Just where I'm not sure
[00:58.58]Maybe in my dreams
[00:59.41]Or a story told
[01:00.28]I would know these warnings
[01:01.64]Even with a blindfold
[01:08.35]I know this path
[01:09.30]Has an evil lead
[01:10.62]You know it's evil and it's lurking
[01:12.19]In the summer breeze
[01:13.14]Yes it's evil and it's lurking
[01:14.53]Off to my side
[01:15.54]But I have no fear
[01:16.84]Because I been here
[01:18.09]Dig it  dig it
[01:28.33]I been this way before
[01:30.91]The path is dark and so unsure
[01:33.55]Filled with warnings
[01:34.30]That we all ignore
[01:35.64]I got to keep my eyes open
[01:37.39]So I don't miss the door
[01:40.72]You got to keep your eyes open
[01:42.25]So you don't miss the door  dig it
[01:45.63]We got to keep our eyes open
[01:47.26]So we don't miss the door  dig it
[01:58.30]Now dig up  everybody
[01:59.31]This is what I got to say
[02:01.14]You got to choose real careful
[02:03.95]Not to go astray
[02:05.40]Well I know this Joe  he is useless  yeat
[02:07.79]Without wine  women  fun and song
[02:08.99]But even wine  women  fun and song
[02:10.97]Can lead you wrong
[02:11.95]If you don't know you gotta be strong
[02:15.29]I been here before
[02:17.45]Well the path is rough
[02:19.88]For rich and poor
[02:21.21]Young and old  you see I know
[02:23.55]You  know the road
[02:24.64]Has so many  so many
[02:26.37]Highways and bi-ways
[02:28.51]And both ways and more ways
[02:31.34]Right ways and wrong ways
[02:33.69]There's so many ways
[02:34.64]You know you better choose right
[02:46.25]Dig it
[02:53.82]Here lies such a lovely flower
[02:55.55]Just look at it sighin'
[02:57.10]As it lies among the vines
[02:58.94]I got to watch out
[03:00.14]As it lies in its spendor
[03:01.49]'Cause I know that it's waiting
[03:02.94]There to hinder
[03:04.27]But it can't fool me
[03:05.96]'Cause I know  yes I know
[03:07.43]'Cause I know that it's poison ivy
[03:12.88]Well poison ivy makes me think
[03:15.06]About a friend I had
[03:16.36]Makes me think about a friend
[03:17.83]Who was my enemy
[03:18.77]Yes he offered me a pill
[03:20.31]And said my brain would heal
[03:22.31]But his pill only gave me
[03:23.64]A temporary thrill
[03:24.21]I was trapped like a slave
[03:26.12]I was trapped like a slave
[03:27.52]For the slow slow kill
[03:29.21]This d**e would steal
[03:30.12]Now a bottle of d**e
[03:31.29]Gives me a cold chill
[03:35.40]Leave the crack alone
[03:37.84]Leave the crack alone
[03:39.24]I would rather get
[03:40.08]The legal stuff that they distill
[03:41.34]And be better off
[03:42.26]From now until
[03:43.86]Because you see I know
[03:45.09]Because I've been here
[03:46.58]I been this way before

[03:52.07]Filled with warnings
