(Everytime I wake up, 'round my way)
(They kill a nigga like me, yeah, everyday)
(So I gotta kiss you goodbye in the morning)
(I don't wanna leave you alone, but you know there's a chance)
(That I won't make it home tonight to kiss you again), yeah
(I just wanna be with you), hmm-mm
I just wanna be with you
I just wanna be with you
Mama's cryin', youngin's dyin', there's more violence
Shit'll never change, but a nigga won't stop tryin'
On 'em drugs, he ain't thinkin' straight, my brodie gone
Can't blame him, these streets took his only one
Ain't no stoppin' war when thеre's too much battle lost
Tryna up the scorе, no rest 'til it's done
Body after body, it's beyond too far
Too deep in for the preaching and praying to God
Tell me what can change us
When the system want to keep us all in cages?
When they tell you "you can dream and you can make it"
In the city, you get left nameless and breadless
Stay up out the way
I feel your pain, my brother, but know you could still be great (could still be great)
I swear that there's a way out, you can find another way
That's what I told myself when I was right up in your place
Lookin' in the mirror with tears runnin' down my face (runnin' down my face)
Everytime I wake up, 'round my way (my way)
They kill a nigga like me, yeah, everyday (everyday)
So I gotta kiss you goodbye in the morning
I don't wanna leave you alone, but you know there's a chance (but you know there's a chance)
That I won't make it home tonight to kiss you again
I just wanna be with you (oh-ohh)
Oh-oh, I just wanna be with you, oh-oh-ohhh
Everytime I wake up, 'round my way (my way)
They kill a nigga like me, yeah, everyday (everyday)
So I gotta kiss you goodbye in the morning
I don't wanna leave you alone, but you know there's a chance (but you know there's a chance)
That I won't make it home tonight to kiss you again
I just wanna be with you, oh-ohh
I just wanna be with you-ou, uh-uh-uhn
