On My Way To Harlem (LP版) - Coolio[00:00:00]

I know a place where the trees don't grow[00:00:10]

Just another place where n**gaz live low[00:00:12]

I know a place where life is f**ked up[00:00:15]

Make a wrong move and your a** get stuck up[00:00:18]

Time ain't nothin but a frame of mind[00:00:20]

And life is like a mountain or a steep a** climb[00:00:22]

I've been lookin for a place to leave[00:00:25]

The only free place is inside of me[00:00:28]

So let's take a trip and you don't need a grip[00:00:30]

But you better be equipped 'cause it might be some sh*t[00:00:32]

African American nothin but a n**ga[00:00:35]

Had our fingers on the trigger but I pulled mine quicker[00:00:38]

I know a place where there ain't no calm and[00:00:40]

You better stay away if you're soft like Charmin[00:00:43]

South Central Los Angeles[00:00:45]

Watts and Compton[00:00:47]

A n**ga on the west coast on his way to Harlem[00:00:48]

Now it's time to step into the light[00:01:11]

Light[00:01:13]

Put up your dukes there's gonna be a fight[00:01:14]

Fight[00:01:16]

And when it's time to fight[00:01:16]

You better fight right[00:01:17]

'Cause if it don't fight right[00:01:18]

Out goes the light[00:01:20]

Take a close look at what I'm freakin on[00:01:21]

Niggaz think I'm tweekin[00:01:24]

But I'm speakin on[00:01:25]

Subject matter data[00:01:26]

Information that I gather[00:01:28]

Through my travels[00:01:30]

'Cause the hardest of the hard[00:01:31]

Hit hardcore killer[00:01:32]

Can't stop the slug of a nine millimeter[00:01:34]

Everybody thinks they know[00:01:36]

But they know not[00:01:37]

If they haven't caught[00:01:39]

A cap on the block[00:01:39]

So shine up your boots and pick up the pieces[00:01:41]

Grab a fresh pair of khakis[00:01:44]

With the sharp a** creases[00:01:45]

Ring the alarm here comes the storm[00:01:47]

I got a firearm on my way to Harlem[00:01:49]

I know a place where the sun don't shine[00:02:12]

Everybody is a victim of neighborhood crime[00:02:14]

I know a place where niggaz walk the line[00:02:17]

One false step and they must do time[00:02:20]

Since I'm in the same boat[00:02:22]

I must stay afloat[00:02:23]

And sing every note[00:02:25]

From the quotes that they wrote[00:02:26]

So I look into the past[00:02:27]

And walk the path of the greats[00:02:28]

So I won't make the same mistakes[00:02:29]

That sealed my ancestors fates[00:02:31]

If I had to be a slave[00:02:32]

I'd rather be in my grave[00:02:33]

If I get in how many lives could I save[00:02:35]

One two three[00:02:37]

A hundred[00:02:39]

A thousand[00:02:39]

My heart is poundin the devil keeps soundin[00:02:40]

But he don't want my money he wants my soul[00:02:42]

So I reach like a tree and like a weed I grow[00:02:45]

My stomach is full[00:02:47]

But my mind is starvin[00:02:49]

Rollin in a G ride on my way to Harlem[00:02:50]
