[00:00.000] 作曲 : Greene, Simone, West
[00:09.970] Yeah.. my Lord.. yeah
[00:11.070] We sell, crack to our own out the back of our homes
[00:13.460] We smell the musk at the dusk in the crack of the dawn
[00:15.710] We go through "Epidodes II," like "Attack of the Clones"
[00:18.460] Work 'til we break our back and you hear the crack of the bone
[00:21.260] To get by.. just to get by
[00:23.350] Just to get by, just to get by
[00:26.130] We commute to computers
[00:27.140] Spirits stay mute while you eagles spread rumors
[00:29.180] We survivalists, turned to consumers
[00:31.220] To get by.. just to get by
[00:34.080] Just to get by, just to get by
[00:36.840] Ask Him why some people got to live in a trailer, cuss like a sailor
[00:39.900] I paint a picture with the pen like Norman Mailer
[00:42.150] Me Abuela raised three daughters all by herself, with no help
[00:45.200] I think about a struggle and I find the strength in myself
[00:47.470] These words, melt in my mouth
[00:49.050] They hot, like the jail cell in the South
[00:50.940] Before my ***** Core bailed me out
[00:52.670] To get by.. just to get by
[00:55.020] Just to get by, just to get by
[00:57.900] We do or die like Bed-Stuy through the red sky
[00:59.300] with the window of the red eye
[01:01.150] Let the lead fly, some G. Rap s**t, "Livin' to Let Die"
[01:03.850] This morning, I woke up
[01:05.680] Feeling brand new and I jumped up
[01:08.390] Feeling my highs, and my lows
[01:11.080] In my soul, and my goals
[01:13.760] Just to stop smokin, and stop drinkin
[01:16.510] And I've been thinkin - I've got my reasons
[01:18.940] Just to get (by), just to get (by)

[01:46.810] We keeping it gangster say "fo shizzle", "fo sheezy" and "stayin crunk"
[01:49.460] Its easy to pull a breezy, smoke trees, and we stay drunk
[01:52.010] Yo, our activism attackin the system, the blacks and latins in prison Yo,
[01:55.170] Numbers of prison they victim black in the vision

[02:11.020] Just to get by, we get fly
[02:13.180] The TV got us reachin for stars
[02:15.090] Not the ones between Venus and Mars, the ones that be readin for parts
[02:18.570] Some people get breast enhancements and ***** enlargers
[02:21.050] Saturday sinners Sunday morning at the feet of the Father
[02:23.740] They need somethin to rely on, we get high on all types of drug
[02:27.400] When, all you really need is love

[02:41.780] Feeling brand new and I jumped up
[02:44.490] Feeling my high's, and my low's
[02:47.310] In my soul, and my goals
[02:50.080] Just to stop smoking, and stop drinking

[03:00.750] Yoyoyo, yo
[03:01.790] Some people cry, and some people try
[03:04.490] Just to get by, for a piece of the pie
[03:07.160] You love to eat and get high
[03:08.460] We decieve when we lie, and we keepin it fly
[03:10.760] Yoyoyo, yo
[03:12.310] When, the people decide, to keep a disguise
[03:14.980] Can't see they eyes, see the evil inside
[03:17.680] But there's people you find
[03:18.990] Strong or feeble in mind, I stay readin the signs
