C U When U Get There (Amended LP Version) - Coolio/40 Thevz

Now I've seen places and faces

And things you ain't never thought about thinking

If you ain't peek then you must be drinking

And smokin'

Pretending not to locin' but you're brokin'

Let me get you open

Now little Timmy got his diploma and

Little Jimmy got life

And Tamikra around the corner

Just took her first hit off the pipe

The other homie shot the other homie

And ran away with his money

And when the other homies heard about it

They thought it was funny

But who's the dummy

Now you done lost the hustler

A down-a** brother got replaced by a buster

And though I got love for ya

I know I can't trust ya

'Cause my crew is rollin' home

And your crew is rollin' dusta

And just because of that you act

You don't like the brother no more

Uh I guess that's just the way it goes

I ain't tryin' preach

I believe I can reach

But your mind ain't prepared

I see you when you get there

I'll see you when you get there

If you ever get there

See you when you get there

I'll see you when you get there

If you ever get there

See you when you get there

More temptation in faith

I guess we livin' for the day

I seen a man get swept off his feet

By a bullet and an AK

The situation so twisted everybody gettin' lifted

I'm just tryin' to take care of my kids

And handle my business

'Cause it way too serious

So you gotta pay close attention

So you don't get caught sittin'

When they come and do all the gettin'

Life is a big game so you gotta play it

With a big horse

Someone's gotta run a little faster coz

We gotta lay the struggle

I'd be a fool to surrender

When I know I can be a contender

And if everbody's a sinner

Then everybody can be a winner

No matter you rag collar deep down we all brothers

And regardless of the time somebody up

There still love us

I'm a scuff and struggle y'all breathless and weak

I just strived my whole life

To make it to the mountain peak

Always keep reaching sure to grab on to something

I'll be there when you get there

When you wit the sound bumpin'

I'll see you when you get there

If you ever get there

See you when you get there

I'll see you when you get there

If you ever get there

See you when you get there

You need to loosen up

And live a little

And if you got kids let 'em know how ya feel

For your own sake give a little

Oh you don't want to hear that

You busy tryina stack

And keep them from the Jones's

Is taking advantage of your own

The realist homies got you

But you known them longest

But some ain't missing a good thing until it's gone

Could have built an empire

If not for the jealousy that divides us

We prefer to keep our eyes shut to describe when

It's something wrong and we desire

So hold your head up high

If your poor and righteous

I know time seems dry and problems seem endless

But in times of despair we gotta put ourselves together

And if you feel you're out the game

Then you need to get back in it

'Cause nothing worse than a quitter

You gotta face responsibility one day my brother

So gather up your pity and turn it to ambition

And put your vehicle and drive and stop by my side

I'll see you when you get there

If you ever get there

See you when you get there

I'll see you when you get there

If you ever get there

See you when you get there

As we walk down the road of our destiny

And the time comes to choose which shall it be

The wide and crooked or the strait narrow

We got one voice to give and one life to live

Stand up for somthing or lay down in your game

Listen to the song that we sang

It's up to you to make it be

I guess I'll see you when you see me

I'll see you when you get there

If you ever get there

See you when you get there

I'll see you when you get there

If you ever get there

I'll See you when you get there

When you get there

When you get there

I'll See you when you get there

When you get there
