Songtext zu 'Alongwaytogo' von Gang Starr

Guru: chorus 1(2x):
Its alongwaytogo, when you dont know where youre going
You dont know where youre going when youre lost (lost)

Guru:
What you need is more direction and get yourself some protection
I thought by now that you have learned your lesson
Im stressin points and slammin all joints you call the real shit
Correct shit, you know the busta way you feel shit
Baby, I still dont think you understand
You lose the game, we get more props than dan...rather
And it dont matter cuz when you flinch, youre weak
So imma step just to speak about the counterfeit, unlegit type of people
Those cellophane ones, the ones that you can see through
Its poetic justice cuz Im mad with a pact
So precise, my insight will take flight in the night
And in the daytime, cuz I dont come up with corny rhymes
Im too devoted to the concept of gettin mine
So heres the deal like shaquille oneal
If you dont know what youre doing, how the hell can you be real?

Chorus 2 (2x):
(scratching)(q-tip from check the rhime)how far must you go to gain
Respect? um...

Guru:
Now in 93, realistically you should be...well aware of all the evils out
There
Its like a jungle sometimes. you get the message?
You got to rumble sometimes, its gettin hectic
Emotions run deep, as times run out
Solutions...its time to find some out
So according to me, suckers are barred
>from obstructing my discussion cuz I rhyme too hard
You take a wiff like a spliff here, like some fresh air
I came to claim shit this year (this year)
So take a stroll down the walkway, or hallway, or runway
Fuck with us, kid, youll pay
I slay...and yo, Im still on the expressway
I kick my essay, then you know we dont play
So pray down on your knees, g
Cuz its the best way, yes, the best way, cuz...

Chorus 1 (2x):

Chorus 2 (2x):

Guru:
Theres a large amount of wack crews. for them, I got bad news
Time to pay your dues, you fools
Im like express mail, with the script that hits
Like the third rail, when I shock the spot, its hot
>from the rays of the sun
Original one the prophet sent to become
A law giver, cuz you shiver when I quiz ya
All about the real neccessities of life
All about the game and all about the name
G to the a to the n to the g starr
We know who we are, but do you know who you are?
(richard pryor: you go down there looking for justice, thats what you
Find, just us)

Chorus 1: (4x)

Chorus 2: (4x)
