I C U When U Get There Lyrics


Now I've seen places and faces
And things you ain't never thought about thinking
If you ain't peek then you must be drinking and smokin'
Pretending not to lockin' but you're brokin'
Let me get you open nowLittle Timmy got his diploma and, little Jimmy got life
And Tamikra around the corner
Just took her first hit off The pipe
The other homie shot the other homie
And ran off with his money
And when the other homies heard about it
They thought it was funny but who's the dummy
Now you done lost the hustler
A down-ass brother got replaced by a buster
And though I got love for ya, I know I can't trust you
Coz my crew is rollin' numbers and your crew is rollin' duchessAnd just because of that you act you don't like a brother
No more, uh, I guess that's just the way it goes
I ain't tryina preach, I believe I can reach
But your mind ain't prepared, I see you when you get there1- I'll see you when you get there

If you ever get there, see you when you get there
I'll see you when you get there if you ever get there
See you when you get thereMore temptation then faith
I guess we livin' for today
I seen a man get swept off his feet by a boy with an AK
the situation so twisted everybody gettin lifted
I'm just tryin to take care of my kids
And handle my business coz it way too serious
So you gotta pay close attention
So you don't get caught sittin'
When they come and do all the gettin'
Life is a big game so you gotta play it with a big heart
Some of us gotta run a little faster
Coz we gotta later start, but I'd be a fool to surrender
When I know I can be a contender
if everybody's ascending then everybody could be
A winner, no matter you rag color deep down we all brothers
and regardless of the time somebody else still love us
I'm a suffer and struggle until i'm breathless and weak
I just strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peak
always keep reaching sure to grab on to something
I'll be there when you get there when you wit the sound bumpin'
(repeat 1, 1)Verse 3: PS (40 Thevz)
You need to loosen up and live a little
and if they got kids let them know how you feel
and for your own sake give a little
oh, you don't want to hear that
you busy tryina stack
and keep them from the Jones's is taking advantage of your own
the realist homies got you but you known them longest
but some ain't missing a good thing until it's gone
could have built an empire if not for the jelousy that divides
we prefare to keep our eyes shut to whats right when
it's something wrong and we desire
so hold your head up high if your poor and righteous
until time seems right
the problems seem endless
in the time of despair we gotta put ourselves together
and if you feel you're out the game then you need to get back in it
coz nothing worse than a quitter
you gotta face responsibility one day, my brother
so gather up your pity and turn it to ambition
and put your vehicle in drive and stop by my side
(rpt 1, 1)As we walk down the road of our destiny
and the times when there was a the
we got one push to give and one life to live
stand up for something or lie down in your game
listen to the song that we sing
it's up to you to make it big
I guess I'll see you when you see me
(rpt 1, 1...)

Coolio (born Artis Leon Ivey, Jr. on August 1, 1963 in Compton, California) is an American rapper and actor whose G-Funk sounding beats and funky flow make listening very pleasant. Coolio started his career as a member of the rap group, WC And The Maad Circle.

In 1994, Coolio released his debut album It Takes a Thief which featured the hugely successful singles, Fantastic Voyage and It Takes a Thief. In 1995 Coolio released his second and most successful album Gangsta's Paradise, which went 4X Platinum and featured the mega hit, Gangsta's Paradise and the popular party track, Sumpin New. The album 'Gangsta's Paradise" is considered by some to be a classic west coast Gangsta rap album, thanks to songs like Exercise Yo Game and Geto Highlites. His G-Funk sounding beats and soulful flow softens the typically edgy effect of rap. His hit song "Gangsta's Paradise" combined singing with rap. Coolio's recordings also appeared on the soundtracks to Clueless (1995) and Dangerous Minds (1995).

However, Coolio's next few albums, 1997's My Soul, 2002's El Cool Magnifico and 2006's Return Of The Gangsta, failed to live up to the success of his first two albums.

In 2009 he released the album From the Bottom 2 the Top. He also took part in the reality TV show "Celebrity Big Brother" in the UK, in which he placed third. He returned to Big Brother UK in 2010 to take part in Ultimate Big Brother - the last ever series of the reality show
