Artist: Schoolly D Album: How a Blackman Feels Song: Sometimes it's Got to Be That Way Typed by: jostmatt@bluewin.ch (Show em that we can do this) --> Flavor Flav ( *scratching of* ) (Yeeeah boyeee) --> Flavor Flav It got to be that way Sometime it got to be that way (3X) Sittin in my room smokin cheeba And then I heard the beep of my beeper Callin back, "Yo brother, what you need?" Ounce of lleyo and a forty and weed Got in my ride for the drop-off But when I got there it was nothin but a knock-off He said, "Yo, I'm gonna make it clear and simple" And then he put a Uzi to my temple "Damn right Schoolly-School, it's a set-up And if you're smart you just shut up Give me all your gold and your cash So a brother like me'll make a dash Like a bullet from a A.K. Sometime it got to be that way" It got to be that way Sometime it got to be that way (4X) Yo brotherman, I was fakin Who the hell do they think that they're gankin? Always tryin to tell a brother how to live But reality they don't really give (don't give a damn) How to hell you gon' tell me what to do? When I'm livin in the ghetto in the zoo Cause to you I ain't nothin but a nigga And to me you ain't nothin but a sucker and a gold-digger Like a bullet from a A.K. Sometime it got to be that way It got to be that way Sometime it got to be that way (5X) Yo homes, this is what I figure In order for us to get bigger Sometime we got to pull on the trigger Sit back and take a little swigger Of Miller, smoke a little killer For a brother on the street it's notin but a thriller All this, you're talkin all that But you still sell a brother a cat You didn't know it was the 911 Now they got another brother on the run Like a bullet from a A.K. Sometime it got to be that way It got to be that way Sometime it got to be that way (4X) [ guest rapper ] My destination I crusade, don't question what I'm doin To keep the brothers hype and leave the suckers boo-hooin To sway away the sayers that's frontin on what I'm sayin Or trippin, even flippin and knowin I ain't playin And playin, yeah buddy, that's the word Describin all the games bein played in the rock world I would like to do it, liked to tell you, my man But we're in America, I might get banned It got to be that way Sometime it got to be that way It got to be that way Sometime it got to be that way (3X) (Bass) --> Chuck D
