Dead Prez & Outlawz - Fork In The Road lyrics

[Stormey] Every day in life, we're presented with different roads to travel, you know? Choices to make At the end of the day, well, you'll figure it out [Hook: Malachi] How do I get by with blocks in the road? And how did I get here at the fork in the road? The choices I'm going by, the world is so cold Will I be here to ever see my baby ___ grow [Verse 1: Stormey] Yeah, time tickin' It's my ambition as a soldier And my intention bring the ghetto gospels [?] to the ma**es so pay attention [?] better thangs in life, it's a fight It's a struggle just to live in life, and what's right But I'm a hustler motherf**er, ten toes in the dirt And I'm'a grind for what it's worth, until i'm layin' in the dirt Put in work, to get my profit, I still hostage on the come up So I keep my eyes open, keep my focus and my gun up I got too much to lose, to much of you To be concerned about you haters, n***as leave that to you n***as ain't got a clue so I'm ask what I ask for God got my back, and that's all that I'm ask for Raised by the block, and the folks are old They allways told me at a time, I'd come to forks in the road I was raised by the block, and the folks are old They always told me at a time, I'd come to forks in the road [Hook: Malachi] How do I get by with blocks in the road? And how did I get here at the fork in the road? The choices I'm going by, the world is so cold Will I be here to ever see my baby ___ grow? [Verse 2: Young Noble] I live my life as an outlaw, n***as I'm [?] From the looks of me, you wouldn't know what I've been through I done seen it all, if I ain't do it, I would still involve Knowing I'm'a answer for that, when the lord call Tryin' to see them all, while I polish my gun No baby mama new boyfriend raising my son These young n***as comin' up, now they're worse than we was If ain't no money splittin' up, tell 'em to ease up Let's get rich and then kick it, I'll be in it Matter fact scratch that, n***a I'm still in it So don't consider this a rhyme, consider it life To live with the verdict, the sentence is life Me and my n***as tryin' to finish the fight, must complete the mission We trying to give them what the streets is missing That real talk so the streets ll listen Ask Malachi I'd rather die than lose hope my n***a, we hopeless n***a [Hook: Malachi] How do I get by with blocks in the road? And how did I get here at the fork in the road? The choices I'm going by, the world is so cold Will I be here to ever see my baby ___ grow? [Verse 3: Kastro] I was only 16, young n***a wantin' creamy things 28 now just to see things change But I'm a player and I'm playin' my part Knowin' this movie ain't mine, it's gods and he's a star And it's a wonder how I made it this far A million miles over in the speed of a fast car So many choices, Why, so many choices It's hell up in my head, I hear the devil and his voices I'm stunm, I'm a bum I'm nothin', suicide get a gun, pull the bu*ton Nah, that ain't me, nah, I'm god's baby But times are kinda hard, livin' gettin' to my lately I believe even though I ain't let 'em My days are gettin' better, but only if I let 'em So here I stand at this fork in the road Gotta decide which way I'm'a go [Hook: Malachi] How do I get by with blocks in the road? And how did I get here at the fork in the road? The choices I'm going, by the world is so cold Will I be here to ever see my baby ... grow [Hook: Malachi] How do I get by with blocks in the road? And how did I get here at the fork in the road? The choices I'm going by, the world is so cold Will I be here to ever see my baby ... grow? [Stormey] When you wanna cry There's a million and one things that'll throw you of the path But you got to stay focussed
