Testo Read Between the Lines - Monie Love
Testo della canzone Read Between the Lines (Monie Love), tratta dall'album Down to Earth
This what you had for somethin' stupid
Now you claim you happy, well that's fine
I hope you live a long life with cupid
A happy one too, however happy you define
I made amendments to the way I'm livin'
Also the people who I open up to
Peace and love and respect I'm giving
To whom peace and love and respect is due
If you think you'll have a clear conscience
I believe you think in the best
Yes, indeed, that thought, it is nonsense
Judgment Day you will have to guess
Bless the ones that have chosen
Righteous roads which to war
Best believe the Lord knows them
Difference you the cheese, they the chore
If you have a problem and the cause you can't define
I suggest you take a second just to read between the lines
Take a look at what goes on in ya' life from day-to-day
Pay attention to what between the lines will have to say
Sister, your brother sells drugs on the corner
Fifteen years of age, works the spot
And to this day, your mother thinks he was born a saint
Little does she know that he was not
Your father's never home to set the right example
Your mother sweats, your brother's not home yet
He's down the block giving somebody a sample
He has an empty head, does someone have a brain to let?
Wouldn't you know this boy became a man quick
Runnin' a house on money that is filth
Life on the line, drops his sister, anorexic
A rainy day, your mother starts to stare
Stop in your tracks for a moment
Analyze yourself over the years
You becoming your own biggest opponent
You possess a hard head and hard ears
If you have a problem and the cause you can't define
I suggest you take a second just to read between the lines
Take a look at what goes on in ya' life from day-to-day
Pay attention to what between the lines will have to say
Abuse is common in the house of a drunkard
Spreads his wife all over the four walls
No time is spent to clean the place, it's a junkyard
Dishes to the sky, haven for roaches to crawl
Wife spends a lot of nights with the sister
Drunk, bottled up, swallowed up into a chair
Organization is a point they miss
And they try to get off claiming life's not fair
If you sit and wait for things to take shape
By themselves, you'll be sat there forever
Concentrate, you got to grab the big break
As a team, you and your partner, together
Seize living a life totally empty
At least try to strive towards perfection
Effort was made no matter how bad attempts be
So make a point, practice some correction
If you have a problem and the cause you can't define
I suggest you take a second just to read between the lines
Take a look at what goes on in ya' life from day-to-day
Pay attention to what between the lines will have to say
Read between the lines (yeah)
Read between the lines (uh-huh)
Read between the lines (say what?)
Read between the lines
Just read it
Read between the lines (yeah)
Read between the lines (uh-huh)
Read between the lines (say what?)
Read between the lines
Just read it (just read it)
