(Chorus:)
Sometimes I wanna get away
from all the confusion causin’ pollution
I know u wish u could run away
From this institution
Cuz there’s no solution to survive
(Verse 1)
Another day when I’m wakin’ up
I turn on my TV on CNN
Another homie done bit the dust
My best friends back up in da pen
Somebody hit the twin towers before
And the buildings came tumblin’ down
All we could do is watch the tears while the people of America
Wondered how we let it go down
Then I heard a sound when I turned around
This old man said pray for me (what he’s say)
Said I have been in this world for 88 long years
And my nanas can stay for me
(What chu do)I looked him in his eyes
and gave him a smile
I said mister I don’t mean no harm
but u ain’t goin’ nowhere
So just pull up a chair
I got green fresh off the farm
(what happened) then he pulled a bottle
from his pocket and said young'n ima
give it a try (give it a try boy)
i said hold up pops I ain’t forget ‘bout the nada that u promised
so go and pass it by
then he said
(Chorus)
Sometimes I wanna get away
from all the confusion causin’ pollution
I know u wish u could run away
From this institution
Cuz there’s no solution to survive
From dusk to dawn mom’s always telling me
You must move on let the past be the last thing that dusts u son
And I trust you mom but that doesn’t dif my luvs for fun
Wanna bus my gun wasn’t much to some
Didn’t measure up to most
Started walking down the road to the
Treasure of the coast you just never f*ckin’ know
What your ganna see who your ganna be who your ganna meet
It’s true your ganna be sleeping slippin’ into silence
Shotguns fire burn choppers and sirens
Spotlights shine flashin’ on the glance
And a pock-a-doted chance and a
Dappled lance
Then
I know you wanna run away (4x)
I’m just sayin’ dog
livin’ my life shinin hopin’
I’m just sayin dog
Just chasin’ the dreams that I be hopin’
I'm just sayin dog
Something that will make you laugh
That will make you cry
That’s how in goes mayn why ask why
I’m just sayin dog
To take me away from my frustration
I’m just sayin dog
To teach me to use my ‘magination
I’m just sayin dog
Something that will make you laugh
That will make you cry
That’s how in goes mayn why ask why
(Chorus)
Sometimes I wanna get away
from all the confusion causin’ pollution
I know u wish u could run away
From this institution
Cuz there’s no solution to survive
Oh I know you wanna run away (8x)
