Show Me Somethin’
by Apocalyptica
Yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea
What am I here for? Im a man so why cant I let them tears fall?
But understand trynna get my head clear yall
This shit is on my mind, asking for the Lord to show me all my signs
Show me something, cuz Im trynna find something
Im lost can you show me something?
Huh, Im lost can you show me something?
Verse 1
I sit and reminisce on them niggas no longer here
And how I used to hit the mall and yall was always there
I sit and think how I didnt grow up with my father there
No need to cry cuz it only made me stronger yea
I watch my brother get in trouble with the law and yea
That shit cut me like I was sitting in a barber chair
Cuz I dont want to see them locked up in them bars in there
And I dont want to see him stretched out in a coffin yea
Im wishing I can move my momma out so far from here
I know that she deserve much better and she worked hard as hell
Thats why you never see me settle because they want us here
Im trynna side step the devil but he heartless yea
But just know that im a rebel and yo its almost here
Im talking bout the revolution I am Paul Revere
So dry your eyes momma please you can pause them tears cuz I promise Im gon get us out of here
Im gon get us out of here
Chorus
What am I here for? Im a man so why cant I let them tears fall?
But understand trynna get my head clear yall
This shit is on my mind, asking for the Lord to show me all my signs
Show me something, cuz Im trynna find something
Im lost can you show me something?
Huh, Im lost can you show me something?
Verse 2
I swear Im praying for my niggas when I say grace
Im know them niggas dont care who they hit, they spray strays
But Lord please protect my family cuz if they graze
Niggas is loading up that ammi and them A-Ks
I know its wrong and that revenge is all in your hands
But last night I heard they rob and killed an old man
Now if they cold enough to take a life thats innocent
I know that they could give a fuck whether I live and shit
And so Im asking you if you can hold me down Lord
Be my umbrella-ella-ella in this down pour
I know you never ever ever let me drown or-wont let that devil-evil-evil win this round, naw
And though I stray from you, you know that my heart is good
And I know I aint exactly living how I probably should
And Imma try act better like its Hollywood
Niggas congratulate me, I just tell them God is good
God is Good!
Chorus
What am I here for? Im a man so why cant I let them tears fall?
But understand trynna get my head clear yall
This shit is on my mind, asking for the Lord to show me all my signs
Show me something, cuz Im trynna find something
Im lost can you show me something?
Huh, Im lost can you show me something?
Verse 3
Yea, huh, yea my niggas drug dealing in the trap
Im telling you wake up nigga its a trap-you set up
And to them young mothers feed up, just keep your head up
Dont let up, you fall you get up!
You make your bed up that you sleep in, fake appers aint practicing what they preaching
They tell you hit the trap while they relaxing on the beach and
Im here to spit the facts, a nigga back flipped off the deep end
And smell this shit for what it is, not Kells but I love the kids
And so I make the songs that let em know that they important
Cuz them racist teachers couldnt give a fuck bout what they score is
So they try get them hands up on them grants like Horace
Now slanging for you know it cops is knocking, they got warrants damn!
Uh, and now he running for it, damn!
Yea and now the cops is running for him damn!
And now he finally slowing down
Hands behind your head , lay down on the ground nigga
Chorus
What am I here for? Im a man so why cant I let them tears fall?
But understand trynna get my head clear yall
This shit is on my mind, asking for the Lord to show me all my signs
Show me something, cuz Im trynna find something
Im lost can you show me something?
Huh, Im lost can you show me something?
