| Yeah.. my Lord.. yeah | |
| [Verse 1: Talib] | |
| We sell, crack to our own out the back of our homes | |
| We smell the musk at the dusk in the crack of the dawn | |
| We go through "Epidodes II," like "Attack of the Clones" | |
| Work 'til we break our back and you hear the crack of the bone | |
| To get by.. just to get by | |
| Just to get by, just to get by | |
| We commute to computers | |
| Spirits stay mute while you eagles spread rumors | |
| We survivalists, turned to consumers | |
| To get by.. just to get by | |
| Just to get by, just to get by | |
| Ask Him why some people got to live in a trailer, cuss like a sailor | |
| I paint a picture with the pen like Norman Mailer | |
| Me Abuela raised three daughters all by herself, with no help | |
| I think about a struggle and I find the strength in myself | |
| These words, melt in my mouth | |
| They hot, like the jail cell in the South | |
| Before my nigga Core bailed me out | |
| To get by.. just to get by | |
| Just to get by, just to get by | |
| We do or die like Bed-Stuy through the red sky | |
| with the window of the red eye | |
| Let the lead fly, some G. Rap shit, "Livin' to Let Die" | |
| [Chorus: Background singers] | |
| This morning, I woke up | |
| Feeling brand new and I jumped up | |
| Feeling my highs, and my lows | |
| In my soul, and my goals | |
| Just to stop smokin, and stop drinkin | |
| And I've been thinkin - I've got my reasons | |
| Just to get (by), just to get (by) | |
| Just to get (by), just to get (by) | |
| [Talib and background singers] | |
| (ba ba ba, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da badahh | |
| Just to get (by), just to get (by) | |
| Just to get (by by by by by by) | |
| (ba ba ba, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da badahh | |
| Just to get (by), just to get (by) | |
| Just to get (by by by by by by) | |
| [Verse 2: Talib] | |
| We keeping it gangster say "fo shizzle", "fo sheezy" and "stayin crunk" | |
| Its easy to pull a breezy, smoke trees, and we stay drunk | |
| Yo, our activism attackin the system, the blacks and latins in prison | |
| Numbers of prison they victim black in the vision | |
| Shit and all they got is rappin to listen to | |
| I let them know we missin you, the love is unconditional | |
| Even when the condition is critical, when the livin is miserable | |
| Your position is pivotal, I ain't bullshittin you | |
| Now, why would I lie? Just to get by? | |
| Just to get by, we get fly | |
| The TV got us reachin for stars | |
| Not the ones between Venus and Mars, the ones that be readin for parts | |
| Some people get breast enhancements and penis enlargers | |
| Saturday sinners Sunday morning at the feet of the Father | |
| They need somethin to rely on, we get high on all types of drug | |
| When, all you really need is love | |
| To get by.. just to get by | |
| Just to get by, just to get by | |
| Our parents sing like John Lennon, "Imagine all the people watch" | |
| We rock like Paul McCartney from now until the last Beatle drop | |
| [Chorus: Background singers] | |
| This morning, I woke up | |
| Feeling brand new and I jumped up | |
| Feeling my high's, and my low's | |
| In my soul, and my goals | |
| Just to stop smoking, and stop drinking | |
| And I've been thinking - I've got my reasons | |
| Just to get (by), just to get (by) | |
| Just to get (by), just to get (by) | |
| [Talib: repeat 2x - with background singers] | |
| Yoyoyo, yo | |
| Some people cry, and some people try | |
| Just to get by, for a piece of the pie | |
| You love to eat and get high | |
| We decieve when we lie, and we keepin it fly | |
| Yoyoyo, yo | |
| When, the people decide, to keep a disguise | |
| Can't see they eyes, see the evil inside | |
| But there's people you find | |
| Strong or feeble in mind, I stay readin the signs |
