easy listening (36): Somethings Gotta Give



Big Boi - "Somethings Gotta Give" (com Mary J. Blige).

Não sei de quem é o beat, mas bem que podia ter sido produzido pelo Premier nos seus tempos dos Gangstarr...

Grande letra:

"You can try to run the planet
Or watch it on the news
Somebody's getting shot
The weathermans looking confused
He's reporting to a nation full of zombies
Strung out on Starbucks and bitching Abercrombie

(...)

refrão:

They try to tell us to stay strong, but every day we losing jobs,
from College Park down to Beverly Hills,
Somethings Gonna Have to Give
Across the world they live in fear but its the same thing over here
If you can hear me on Capitol Hill,
Somethings gonna have to give

(...)

Single mother in the swallows and its no fun, but you dont really understand until you are one, a childs sick and hes losing his endurance, she wanna fix him but she aint got no insurance.
Now we don't even wanna talk about the man's bite

Out on parole with the promise that he'll do right,
but a felon has no chance for a new start,
so its back to doing hand to hand on his own life,
and blacknights were all the same, and I know you feel my pain,
and the only hope I have that help me deal with the drama,
is that maybe in November
I'll be cheering for Obama

(...)

Step on the stars, while your reaching for the sun, but never burn a bridge, each one teach one
If you lend a helping hand, you may never need one
(...)"
