Life In The City歌词

[00:04.57] Life In The City
[00:13.84]Some say you only get so many breaths
[00:15.64]When they're gone, you'll meet your maker
[00:18.59]Some people always try to cheat their death
[00:21.23]But when it comes, you just can't shake it
[00:23.84]Some people try to make a deal
[00:26.60]To get a little bit more but they try to take it
[00:29.41]Some of them end up in debt
[00:32.30]When their called they try to fake it
[00:35.80]But one morning the clock will chime
[00:37.84]And no more birds come flying by
[00:40.53]And temperature's keep rising higher16 bullets come flying by
[00:46.20]Ai, yi, yi put your hands up high'
[00:48.55]Cause you never know
[00:49.72]How long you're gonna live 'til ya die
[00:57.61]They hit you with a missile, hit you with a bomb
[00:59.30]Hit you with the law, try to take your home
[01:02.87]Break into your house in the middle of the night
[01:05.72]Track you on a cell phone by satellite
[01:08.24]Stopped any time you're in your car
[01:10.59]Search your body, search your home
[01:12.62]And listenin' in on your phone calls
[01:15.58]Still no politician got enough balls
[01:17.77]Lining the people up against the wall
[01:22.53]When the truth comes out all hell will call
[01:25.15]And someday
[01:27.10]Guantanamo will fall
[01:29.34]Until that day we all will ride on
[01:31.37]Ai, yi, yi, put your hands up high'
[01:33.50]Cause you never know
[01:34.36]How long your gonna live 'til ya die
[01:41.52]That's life in the city
[01:46.41]That's life in the city yeah
[01:51.68]That's life in the city
[01:56.91]Mad world in the city
[02:25.24]Some holdin' on, so damn gone
[02:28.17]Their whole lives livin' with their
[02:30.10]TV onThen radio play the same 10 songs
[02:32.89]Set your clock by which ones on
[02:36.79]An' watching the news try to see what's wrong
[02:39.72]Find somebody else to blame it on
[02:42.29]Hope they never come and research you'
[02:44.90]Cause your grandmother was an immigrant too
[02:48.32]So if you love somebody better tell them so'
[02:50.87]Cause you never ever, ever no when they gonna go
[02:53.63]If they love you back, just give thanks
[02:56.70]Can't keep love like money in the bank
[03:27.32]You never know, you never know
[03:36.53]Its gonna get you
