Another Song - Lyrics - Z-ro

[Z-Ro talking:] Hold up let me hit my Hypnotic Record. Aight you rollin'? I'd just like to take a minute to apologize to my listeners I just wanna say I'm sorry for not havin' any songs about happyness or bein' in peace & *** like that See I can only display my personal feelings & experiences And so far I ain't felt what happyness feels like Or experienced to anything but hard times & heartache So I apologize for not makin' you dance I apologize for not havin' any sarcastical songs You know that good feeling with 'em that put a smile on your face I ain't had nothin' to offer except for frowns So for that I'm sorry, I promise if I could sing Another Song, I would. [Verse 1: Z-Ro] I wish I could tell you my life is good but it's not I wish Missouri City winters were cold but they're hot So many situations to deal with, I can't concentrate a hundred homies & everyone is fake. How can I make it out the ghetto? It won't let me go Seems like every time I do a good deed, good deeds never return to 'Ro I gave up my last so somebody could have a start Then somebody got me locked behind bars What a way to show your love back, homey you a friend for life For your crime I'm doin' time in the Penn tonight It's bad enough I lost a family my luck ain't live Mama died when I was 6 & Dad ain't have enough time To kick it with me like I wanted him to kick it with me Now that I'm incarcerated you wanna come visit with me But I ain't holdin' no grudges, Daddy, I love you that's my word Even though you had me sleepin' on a curb, I wish I had Another Song. [Chorus:] These are the days. These are the days. We cherish them because soon they'll be gone away. Soon they'll be gone away. On to another place Pretty soon I'll be gone 20 sum odd years of callin' God on this mobile phone If it wasn't for my life style I'd sing Another Song. [Verse 2:] I wish I was ridin' around in a Bentley But maybe Z-Ro livin' lavish just ain't meant to be 'Cause I'm the type of fella that'll give a bum a hundred dollars I'd rather help out my people instead of poppin' my collar I wish I could get a million copies sold If I'm broke I'd rather die, I don't want no more poverty 'Ro & oh Sometimes I wish I was somebody else 'Cause I can't even pay bills even though my CD's won't stay on the shelf Strugglin' & I'm strivin' & just barely survivin' Bobbin' & weavin' my last breath time after time And it seems that I won't ever get no rest I'm exhausted Tryin' to make it compare the price & pain is what the cost is Maybe if I was evil I'd be rollin' in bread Until somebody with a pistol come & opened my head But my mission is keepin' ambition, I'm tryin' so hard Even though my soul is scarred Oh Lord, I wish I had Another Song. [Chorus:] These are the days. These are the days. We cherish them because soon they'll be gone away. Soon they'll be gone away. On to another place Pretty soon I'll be gone 20 sum odd years of callin' God on this mobile phone If it wasn't for my life style I'd sing Another Song. [Verse 3:] I wish that I could sing Another Song But my rhythm is too much pain Sunshine is the level that I think I'm on So tell me why it's so much rain Day to day it's a struggle in my lifetime To keep from creepin' I be stayin' in the G No crimes committed so tell me why I'm doin' time And won't nobody come & sit with me for free Sometimes at night I smoke a cig & sit back And wonder why the whole world hate me So much ambition I just gotta blow my wig back Wishin' *** would come on & take me I wish that I could sing Another Song I'm tired of sleepin' in rivers of tears all night long No point in wonderin' why my people choose to do me wrong Stuck in this reality 'til my life is over & gone. [Chorus:] These are the days. These are the days. We cherish them because soon they'll be gone away. Soon they'll be gone away. On to another place Pretty soon I'll be gone 20 sum odd years of callin' God on this mobile phone If it wasn't for my life style I'd sing Another Song. {fading out} Callin' God on this mobile phone...
