Rob "Cleva" Lightbourne - Cloudy Days Şarkı Sözleri
Yo. Somebody told me that it never rains in southern California.
Shit. All I've seen was cloudy days. Every day... For real.
Verse:
Some n---as love to dream but I woke up too many times
With a dollar bill in my pocket, a couple quarters and dimes
So while you're sleeping I'ma stay on the grind
Too much money's often spent in time, listen to the rhyme
Of this mastermind deserted as a bastard I'm
No longer living I'm just passing time
By slow survival strictly by what I know
With times more colder than the wind in Chicago
As I grow into a man like a seed to a plant
I look back on all my deeds in this land
My reasons for scheming with heat in my hand
Was necessity far from simple greed of a man
I'll never lie and say the devil made me do it
I simply seen the option and decided to pursue it
Wishing for better days in this game of life
Trying to avoid being hit by it's pain and strife
Try to believe...
Chorus:
Somehow. Someway
I'ma see the sun shine through these cloudy days
Navigating my way through time and space
Desperately trying to find my place I try to believe
Somehow. Someway
I'ma see the sun shine through these cloudy days
Navigating my way through time and space
Praying everything will be okay... I try to believe
Verse:
It's all a dream and I'll wake up soon
Up in my room bout a quarter to noon with one of my tunes going "boom"
But as for now I resume
Being stuck in a nightmare since I jumped out the womb
Women assume that they can calm the stress
Figuring I'm in need of some passionate sex
But never the less I'm restless and can't sleep at night
With this woman trying to hold me tight
From midnight to sunlight eyes wide open
In the next room expressing pain soft words spoken
I'm in need of assistance cause drama's consistent
And it seems existence is persistent
I know my destiny eventually is rest in peace
Though I have tendencies to wish my body temp degrees
Would simply freeze just so I could be at ease
Dreams of a legacy propel me to proceed and believe
Chorus:
Somehow. Someway
I'ma see the sun shine through these cloudy days
Navigating my way through time and space
Desperately trying to find my place I try to believe
Somehow. Someway
I'ma see the sun shine through these cloudy days
Navigating my way through time and space
Praying everything will be okay... I try to believe
Verse:
But yet this world turns one more time
Mama telling me baby one day the sun goin' shine
But as 3, 6, 5 is multiplied by my 23rd
It's harder now to trust every word that I've heard
The hurt I've observed on this earth giving birth
Once again to nerve to do dirt cause to work
9 - 5 to survive for some jerk who's goin' smirk
Simply cause he feel his dirty drawers got more worth
I can't do it. If an armored truck were headed
For a cliff with a million I'd rather pursue it
Chasing my dream to the death last breath
Taken in the process of progress is how I wanna go
As opposed monotonous getting by, getting old
Laying back at 86 and releasing my soul
I'm no longer anticipating a better way
Mama I'm goin' be the son that shine through these cloudy days
Chorus:
Somehow. Someway
I'ma see the sun shine through these cloudy days
Navigating my way through time and space
Desperately trying to find my place I try to believe
Somehow. Someway
I'ma see the sun shine through these cloudy days
Navigating my way through time and space
Praying everything will be okay... I try to believe (x2)
