Scarface

I Seen A Man Die
[Intro: Scarface + friend] So what you gonna do cat daddy? [Face] I don't know dawg... just trying to live it one day at a time I hear you man, live it one day at a time... [Face] Let me get up outta here man my ride waitin Aight cat daddy stay true [Face] Aight man peace [Verse 1: Scarface] He greets his father with his hands out Rehabilitated slightly, glad to be the man's child The world is different since he's seen it last Out of jail been seven years and he's happy that he's free at last All he had was his mother left Now she's gone and he's gotta make a change and make it for the better But he's black so he's got one strike against him And he's young plus he came up in the system But he's smart and he's finally makin' eighteen And his goal is to get on top and try to stay clean So he's calling up his homie who done came up Livin' large, now they dealin' with the same stuff And had that attitude that who he was was worth it And with that fucked up attitude he killed his first man Now it's different, he who did dirt And realized killin' men, meant comin' up but it still hurt And can't nobody change this SongtexteIt's nineteen-ninety-four and we up against the same shit [Chorus: Scarface] I never understand why I could never seen a man cry, til I seen that man die [Verse 2: Scarface] Imagine life at it's full peak Then imagine lying dead in the arms of your enemy Imagine peace on this earth when there's no grief Imagine grief on this earth when there's no peace Everybody's got a different way of endin' it And when your number comes for service then they send it in Now your time has arrived for the final test I see the fear in your eyes and hear your final breath How much longer will it be til it's all done? Total darkness and ease be at all one I watch him die and when he dies let us celebrate You took his life, but his memory you'll never take You'll be headed to another place And the life you used to live will reflect in your mother's face [Chorus] [Verse 3: Scarface] I hear you breathin' but your heart no longer sounds strong But you kinda scared to die and so you hold on And you keep on blacking out cause and your pulse is low Stop trying to fight the reaper just relax and let it go Because there's no way you can fight it though you'll still try And you can try it til you fight it but you'll still die Now your spirit leaves your body and your mind clears The rigormortis starts to set, now you outta here You start your journey into outer space You see yourself in the light but you're still feeling outta place So you standing in the tunnel of eternal light And you see the ones you never learn to love in life Make the choice let it go but you can back it up If you ain't at peace with God you need to patch it up But if you ready close your eyes and we can set it free There lies a man not scared to die, may he rest in peace [Chorus] Aus Songtexte Mania
