Man, have you ever really wondered
|
Like why are we here? What the meanin to all of this?
|
|
[Chorus: Big Boi]
|
Sometimes life can keep you down, with your face all in the dirt
|
(HALL-LE-LU-JAH)
|
Now if you feel that left behind, need to get up and go to church
|
(HALL-LE-LU-JAH)
|
Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh, ooooh, ooooh, ooooh, ooooh, ooooh
|
(HALL-LE-LU-JAH)
|
Ooooh, ooooh, ooooh, ooooh..
|
(HALL-LE, LU-JAH)
|
|
[Verse One: Big Boi]
|
Big, slide into the mode, time to drop a load
|
My life is goin downhill like some cardboard in the snow
|
My bank account is frozen, I
|
don't think that I can get out this hole
|
Feel like the figure four leglock
|
Like the jury went away and then they came back deadlocked
|
I can't move, I can't eat, I can't even breathe
|
Can't even buy a decent sack without the stems and the seeds
|
No trees, no P's to ease the stress of everyday livin
|
But homeless people gotta suck it up wherever they livin
|
The unforgiven or the unwillin, live a life of sinnin
|
And expect to be as pure as an infant in the beginnin
|
|
[Interlude]
|
But what about repentance?
|
What about detention?
|
What about you eating dinner in the devil's kitchen?
|
But what about repentance?
|
What about committing the same sin
|
over and over again and again and ah..
|
|
[Hook - singers]
|
Why are we here? Huh? Huh? Huh?
|
Please tell me - what are we here foooooooorrrrrrrrrr?
|
OW!
|
|
[Verse Two: Big Boi]
|
Life, is nothin but a dream, so peaceful and serene
|
Unless you're bein evil then you on the devil's team
|
Well I receive what you want to believe
|
But soon you'll have to sew those bad seeds
|
Please, any man can ask, to get a pass
|
or a cleansing of sin to grant another chance
|
Perhaps another glance of the light at the end of the tunnel
|
Talk to the coach or break out the huddle
|
Whatever should you fumble your rebuttal should be subtle
|
Cause he who lives in the upper room is never gullible
|
As you survey the syllables and sentences
|
The question that I'm merely tryin to pose is as simple as me sayin
|
|
