[Verse 1]
Now I've seen places and faces
And things you ain't never thought about thinking, if you ain't peeped, then you must be drinking
And smokin', pretending that your locin'
But you're broken, let me get you open
Now little Timmy got his diploma and little Jimmy got life
And Tamika 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 that it was funny
But who's the dummy? 'Cause now you done lost a hustler
A down-ass brother done been replaced by a bustler
And though I got love for you, I know I can't trust you
'Cause my crew is rollin' Hummers and your crew is rollin' Dusters
And just because of that, you act you don't like a brother no more
I guess that's just the way it goes
I ain't tryna preach, I believe I can reach
But your mind ain't prepared, I'll see you when you get there
[Chorus]
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 there
[Verse 2]
More temptation than faith, I guess we livin' for the day
I seen a man get swept off his feet by a boy with an AK
The situation's so twisted, everybody gettin' lifted
I'm just tryin to take care of my kids and handle my business
'Cause it's 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 'cause we got a later start
But I'd be a fool to surrender when I know I can be a contender
If everybody's a sinner, then everybody can be a winner
No matter your rag color, deep down we all brothers
And regardless of the times, somebody up there still love us
I'ma scuffle and struggle until I'm breathless and weak
I done strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peak
Always keep reachin', sure to grab on to something
I'll be there when you get there, waitin' with the sounds bumpin'
Now I've seen places and faces
And things you ain't never thought about thinking, if you ain't peeped, then you must be drinking
And smokin', pretending that your locin'
But you're broken, let me get you open
Now little Timmy got his diploma and little Jimmy got life
And Tamika 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 that it was funny
But who's the dummy? 'Cause now you done lost a hustler

And though I got love for you, I know I can't trust you
'Cause my crew is rollin' Hummers and your crew is rollin' Dusters
And just because of that, you act you don't like a brother no more

I ain't tryna preach, I believe I can reach
But your mind ain't prepared, I'll see you when you get there
[Chorus]
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 there
