Whether we dribble out this mothaf**ka,
rap metaphors, & riddle out this mothaf**ka,
work 2nd floors, hospital out this maf**ka,
Some How we gotta get up out this mothaf**ka.
Some Day the cops kill a maf**ka,
I don`t always wanna be this drug dealin` maf**ka d**n.....
wish I could take us all
on this magic carpet ride through the sky, I....
used to play the hall up 5th floor
me & my boys we all poor gettin` high, I....
see the worse at a worse
I deserve every blessin`, I received I`m from the dirt, I.....
planted my seed on unfertile land
Myrtle Park Marcy, Flushing & Nostrand, and....
still I grew
Some How I knew dat the sun`ll shine through, and...
touch my soul,
take hold of my hand,
look man a tree grows in Brooklyn.

Too old Nell, Sigel street I ain`t forget chu,
20 Ni**as on the block tryin` chase that buck....
nusey neighbors & the haters keep their face on stuck,
cops roll up on the pavement breaks the dice games up,
behind smoke kids can`t chase the ice cream truck,
girls fightin` over Rollie young hype things up,
Ni**as fightin` over Colder young boys light things up.
All the petty a** wars f**k the night scene up,
remember Lil` Eddie Draw man I ain`t like mean up,
then they wonder why we like green up,
back to back steam up
tryin` to relax but I can`t lean up
in the L or the repha that steamer that steam up is my head,
stress to the point I get a fever....
think about the block
and all the mothers & their kids that can`t
leave and how the chinks gotta feed `em...
for the rest of their life f**kin`
wings, fried vegetable rice....
{gotta be kiddin`} no breakfest Cap`n Crunch at night.
Our kids eatin` lunch at night
in their beds all bunched an tight....
No less then 3 or 4....
know how go 2 by the foot 2 by the headboard
man I`m gettin scared ya`ll I feel for them
{yeah i know} gotta grip the shorties on the block
all they do is smoke weed & drink 40`s....
cop their lower quarties
nough to get the latest ROC, newest glock, & old jordies.

"Some How Some Way" we goin` make it up out the sewa one day.
"Some How Some Way" we goin` make it up out this life {yeah} &
"Some How Some Way" we goin` make it up out the hood one day.......
Some Way we goin` make it up out this life.

Right cher`s another lil` story bout` this clique I claimed
another chapter based on how I get that game,
hangin` round my neighborhood & bang my street
sittin` watch the passers-by play my sweep
South Side, Sunny Side, block`s I run,
South Vegas, South Paul ni**as all got guns
over here we got this cold salad get that there
we know tomorrow ain`t a promise so get that there
f**k sittin` in the livin` room guardin` the steps
workin` inside a slump house starvin` to death
servin` these ni**as flippers
quarter ounces in zippers
agents snappin` you`re picture
neighbors plottin` to get ya,
situation is critic
I was out here to get it
livin` it like a savage
cause ni**a I gotta have it
holdin` back on the mothers for a minute, pumpin` hard dog,
erase enough to walk it down & f**k it all dog,
love bein` willied and you`re creek gonna rise,
Im`ma be a ni**a and these streets gonna rise
("Some How, Some Way"),("Some How, Some Way")
Im`ma be a ni**a and these streets gonna rise.
Out "Some How, Some Way"
