The Roots - Hurricane слова песни

Same story, same target, different timeCyclical reaction from the prisoners of the bilndTrying to fight time, it`s a battle of the mindWaiting for redemption, surviving in a bind Same story, same target, different timeCyclical reaction from the prisoners of the blindTrying to fight time, it`s a battle of the mindWaiting for redemption, surviving in a bind [Black Thought]Yo, talk about paying the ultimate priceHurricane been incarcerated all of his lifeStarted out at like twelve Trapped in a belly of hellGrew into a man inside of a cellYo, anger just swell upAt a early age that developHot head and now it ain`t shit y`all could tell himThey said he`s on a road to become a felonBut instead he swung blows that`ll spilt your melonHe did his thing and was the king of the ring, undisputedStarted making noise but they tried to mute itThey put him through itFor him to make the system look stupid, [yo]They rather look you in the face and shoot itAnd leave your spot looted [or what]Or leave your whole life blank futured and caughtWhen you scream at it and do itWith sweat leaking from the outline of your soluidDon`t understand the point that you atOr how the hell you came to it?Flashback to images of that night, out in PattersonThey pulled him over heading home from a gatheringAnd when they told him the charge it kind of baffled himMurder in the first for the champ, we on that again? Chorus HurricaneAccuse a HurricaneAin`t change a damned shameIt`s life for Hurricane, Hurricane [Black Thought]*overtop of sung chorus*Forever, imagine your locked down forever Could y`all stand the weather?Could you hold it together?You tell me that you know the painYo, imagine if your life was like a hurricane, a hurricaneForever, imagine your locked down foreverCould ya`ll stand the weather?You built for that weather?Yo, know what`m saying?Know what`m saying? [Common]You gotta fight for what you believe inNobody knows the troubles seenThis flick left me wondering`What can become of kings and young kids?`Summer dream deferred, incident occured, freedom blurredA freedom that would only be retrieved again in words, later onThe cops, y`all know what they be onA nigga`s life is like a field that they play upon, away and gone fromNatural lifer, a soul he had to fight,Learn it himself, sleep days, stay up half the nightAmongst dead man walking, he got afterlife exercising,Developing his knack to writeNever leaving his cell, in this world he trapped himselfWhat he loved on the outside world, detached himselfYou know the cards Blacks get dealt by the systemHe drew a picture of freedom with many dimensionsThis picture proved to be bigger than Black and WhiteA young soul named Lesra brought him back to lifeIt`s amazing to a man what a book could doAnd how certain books seem to look for youThis is the story of a champion`s fall and riseThe story left me wiping my eyesPeace Ru Chorus HurricaneAccuse a HurricaneAin`t change a damned shameIt`s life for Hurricane, Hurricane [Black Thought]*overtop of sung chorus*Yo, yo, forever, imagine your locked down forever Could y`all stand the weather?Could you hold it together?You tell me that you know the painYo, imagine if your life was like a hurricane, a hurricaneForever and ever yo, locked down foreverCould you stand the weather?Yo, yo i can`t even explain the painJust imagine if your life was like a hurricane [Mos Def]Yes, I am the inescapable, the irresistable,The unnegotiable, the unchallenged [who dat?]I am timeI scroll in measurements, control the elements,I hold the evidence, I tell the story [say what?]I am timeI know no prejudice, I bare no sentimentsFor wealth or settlement, I move forward [who you?]I am timeYou can`t recover me, conceal or smuggle me,Retreat or run from me, crawl up or under me,You can`t do much for me besides serveMe well and have good dividends returned to youOr attempt to kill me off and have me murder youMany have wasted me but now they are facing me,Treated me unfaithfully and now endure me painfullyPlaintively, I wait to see what history will shape to be,Who`s hearts will never die inside the sake of meAngel`s scribe the page for me,Keep a full account of all the names for meAnd make a special mark for Hurricane who (?) patiently Chorus HurricaneAccuse a HurricaneAin`t change a damned shameIt`s life for Hurricane, Hurricane [Black Thought]*overtop of sung chorus*Yo, yo, a Hurricane forever,Imagine your locked down forever Could you stand the weather?Could you hold it together?I can`t even explain the painImagine if your life was like a hurricane, a hurricaneForever, imagine your locked down forever and ever, everCould you hold it together?Yo, can`t explain the pain with words, know`m saying?Just imagine if your life was like a hurricane [Verse 4]The clouds clashed and the heaven`s gave birth to starGod placed it in a man on the day he was bornConvicted minutes after, a true natural disasterFramed for manslaughter, the Hurricane Carter risingFrom out the south water, like torrential rainsIn the ring no opponent escaped unscathedYou can`t believe the world we live in`s injustAll I see is more proof, there`s no place for usThey had my man Carter locked in a cage, like an animalDrive him to the point where the mind work mechanicalOr works by remote control It was done to all of us, they tapped directly into our soulEither it`s sing-sing, or it`s bars around your mindThere`s no where to run, no where to hideIn a six-by-six a guilty man criesFor repentance and lost is what innocence is Same story, same target, different timeCyclical reaction from the prisoners of the bilndTrying to fight time, it`s a battle of the mindWaiting for redemption, surviving in a bind Same story, same target, different timeCyclical reaction from the prisoners of the blindTrying to fight time, it`s a battle of the mindWaiting for redemption, surviving in a bind Chorus HurricaneAccuse a HurricaneAin`t change a damned shameIt`s life for Hurricane, Hurricane [Black Thought]*overtop of sung chorus*Your locked down forever Could you stand the weather?Could you hold it together?I can`t even explain the pain, know`m saying?Your life was like a hurricane, a hurricaneForever, imagine behind bars foreverCould you stand the weather?You built for that? Is you cut for that?Don`t be telling me that you know the painYour life was like a hurricane, yo Same story, same target, different timeCyclical reaction from the prisoners of the bilndTrying to fight time, it`s a battle of the mindWaiting for redemption, surviving in a bind Same story, same target, different timeCyclical reaction from the prisoners of the blindTrying to fight time, it`s a battle of the mindWaiting for redemption, surviving in a bind
