Konvict
Akon
Everybody I know
around my way still there
(everybody's still there)
And waiting for a miracle
to pass them by
Most of them are known
drug dealers
and I know them well
(Yes I know them well)
That's the only way
they know how to survive
Cause it's the way to get by
It's the only way to get by
If I had a choice aside
from this life god knows I try
To get away
Ooh, yeah
In his heart whoa
Everybody I know
around my way still there
(everybody's still there)
And waiting for a miracle
to pass them by
Most of them
are known drug dealers
and I know them well
(Yes I know them well)
That's the only way
they know how to survive
Cause it's the way to get by
It's the only way to get by
If I had a choice aside
from this life god knows I try
To get away
Everybody I know
around my way still there
(everybody's still there)
And waiting for a miracle
to pass them by
Most of them are known
drug dealers
and I know them well
(Yes I know them well)
That's the only way
they know how to survive
Cause it's the way to get by
It's the only way to get by
If I had a choice aside
from this life god knows I try
To get away
Ooh, yeah
Ohh, yeah
