Oh
I want a brighter day now
For those of you on the way out
You might not have a place to go
But that ain't what it's all about
That someone that loves you
And keeps your life together
Could one day disown you
Throw you out so you can watch the weather
But it be's like that sometime, sometime
Be like that sometime, y'all
Ooh
Looka here
For those of you on your way down
If you were tryin' to lift up the groove
They would follow you around
But maybe you would rather
Now you're on the run
All they want is what they know
And you just wanna have fun
For those of you on your way down
It be's like that sometime, sometime
Be's like that, y'all, sometime
Be's like that sometime, sometime
Yeah
This is for those of you on your way up
Huh
The same motherfuckers that make you
Break you when you had enough
Dig this now
Be a rebel
Always a brighter day
'Cause on your way down you can knock knock
'Cause you did it your way
You tell 'em it be's like that sometime, y'all
Be like that sometime
Yeah
It be like that
It be like that sometime, y'all
When you lead the way
You can say
It be like that sometime
