[00:00.00] "C U When U Get There"
[00:43.03] Now I've seen places and faces
[00:45.45] And things you ain't never thought about thinking
[00:47.16] If you ain't peek then you must be drinking and smokin'
[00:49.82] Pretending not to locin' but you're brokin', let me get you open
[00:53.08] Now little Timmy got his diploma and little Jimmy got life
[00:56.10] And Tamika around the corner just took her first hit off the pipe
[00:58.97] The other homie shot the other homie and ran off with his money
[01:01.68] And when the other homies heard about it they thought that it was funny
[01:04.24] But who's the dummy 'cuz, now you done lost the hustler
[01:06.80] A down-ass brother can never by replaced by a buster
[01:09.52] And though I got love for ya I know I can't trust ya
[01:12.02] 'Coz my crew is rollin' hummers and your crew is rollin' dustas
[01:14.64] And just because of that you act like you don't like the brother no more
[01:17.41] I guess that's just the way it goes
[01:19.81] I ain't tryina preach I believe I can reach
[01:22.76] But your mind ain't prepared I'll C U when you get there
[01:25.58] I'll C U when U get there
[01:29.85] If you ever get there
[01:32.70] C U when U get there
[01:35.87] I'll C U when U get there
[01:40.80] If you ever get there
[01:42.97] C U when U get there
[01:46.23] More temptation and faith I guess we livin' for the day
[01:48.77] I seen a man get swept off his feet by a boy with an AK
[01:51.53] The situation so twisted everybody gettin' lifted
[01:54.15] I'm just tryin' to take care of my kids and handle my business
[01:56.72] 'Coz it way too serious so you gotta pay close attention
[01:59.18] So you don't get caught sittin' when they come and do all the gettin'
[02:01.93] Life is a big game so you gotta play it with a big heart
[02:04.60] Someone's gotta run a little faster 'cuz we gotta later start
[02:07.16] I'd be a fool to surrender when I know I can be a contender
[02:09.61] If everybody's a sinner then everybody could be a winner
[02:12.53] No matter you rag collar deep down we all brothers
[02:15.10] And regardless of the times somebody up there still love us
[02:17.91] I'm a scuffle and struggle till I'm breathless and weak
[02:20.22] I just strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peak
[02:23.08] Always keep reaching sure to grab on to something
[02:25.50] I'll be there when you get there when you wit the sound bumpin'
[02:28.26] I'll C U when U get there
[02:32.94] If you ever get there
[02:35.54] C U when U get there
[02:38.66] I'll C U when U get there
[02:43.39] If you ever get there
[02:46.00] C U when U get there
[02:59.81] You need to loosen up and live a little and if you got kids
[03:02.88] Let them know how you feelin' for your own sake give a little
[03:05.23] Oh, you don't want to hear that you busy tryina stack
[03:07.89] And keep up with the Jones's taking advantage of your own
[03:10.15] The realest homies that you've been knowing for the longest
[03:12.31] But some ain't missing a good thing until it's gone
[03:14.82] Could have built an empire if not for the jealousy that divides us
[03:17.58] We prefer to keep our eyes shut to whats right when
[03:19.84] Theres something of all that we desire
[03:20.85] So hold your head up high if your poor and righteous
[03:23.36] I know time seems right and the problems seem endless
[03:25.83] But at times of despair we gotta pull ourselves together
[03:28.34] And if you fell you're out the game then you need to get back in it
[03:31.09] 'Coz nothing worse than a quitter
[03:32.36] You gotta face responsibility one day, my brother
[03:35.67] So gather up your pity and turn it to ambition
[03:38.43] And put your vehicle and drive and stop by my side
[03:41.73] I'll C U when U get there
[03:46.21] If you ever get there
[03:48.76] C U when U get there
[03:52.02] I'll C U when U get there
[03:56.70] If you ever get there
[03:59.26] C U when U get there
[04:02.38] As we walk down the road of our destiny
[04:05.34] And the time comes to choose which shall it be
[04:08.16] The wide and crooked, or the straight and narrow
[04:10.57] We got one push to give and one life to live
[04:12.98] Stand up for something or lie down in your game
[04:15.99] Listen to the song that we sing
[04:18.66] It's up to you to make it big
[04:20.72] I guess I'll see you when you see me
[04:23.88] I'll C U when U get there
[04:31.16] If you ever get there
[04:34.18] I'll C U when U get there
[04:41.25] If you ever get there
[04:44.47] I'll C U when U get there
[04:51.65] If you ever get there
[04:54.97] I'll C U when U get there
[05:02.14] If you ever get there
