White Rain - Think About You (feat. Wonderflow) Lyrics

As a teen I had a friend
He could spend
Some bread no doubt
Liked to party stopped
It hardly didn't know to slow down
His parents left inheritance
He never have a job though
His bills were taken care of food
And clothes were no prob so
He did what he wanted
No structure or consequence
Responsible for nothing drank
Until he lost consciousness
Did this on the daily
Had ridiculous tolerance
Unsatisfied he had to try
Pills but the opposite
Effect happened rapidly
Liver failed to function
Now he lives in a hospital
Bed I.V. pumping
Waiting for a transplant
He said the part he can't stand
He hoped to live at least
Four scores like a grand slam
To be a grandparent
And to merit a family
As a kid that was all
He couldn't buy not so handily
I took this as a sign to
Re-evalulate my lifestyle
Focused on the future greeting
Days with a polite smile

"I'm learning
From my past mistakes
Cuz my life was moving way
Too fast had to smash the breaks
So I'm reflecting
On my story and the path it takes
Then I absorb it and record
It on these classic tapes

I'm reflecting on my story
And the path it takes
Then I absorb it and record
It on these classic tapes
I'm reflecting on my story
Re-reflecting on my story-story
Absorb it and record it on the
Classic tapes so blast it"

Meet Danny a spoiled brat
Who grew up with a silver spoon
He had every toy you could
Imagine in the living room
Way beyond selfish
Only cared about himself
He knew his parents were
Rich and he'd inherit the wealth
A pocket full of cash
Everyday he'd pass this bum
Just laugh to in his face
When he asked him for some
Then one day he noticed
The sidewalk was deserted
White chalk on the curb
It meant he must've been murdered
His mom called later sayin
"son time to spill the beans
See I was pregnant
With twins but I was still a teen
N two kids ain't an option
When you're living in poverty
Gave one up for adoption
A year later hit the lottery
But we had no idea
He lived in this very town
Til last night he was killed & now
He's cemetery bound
Now Danny felt compassion
For the first time in his life
And vowed to spend the rest
Turning wrongs into rights.

"I'm learning from my past mistakes
Cuz my life was moving
Way too fast had to smash the breaks
So I'm reflecting on my story
And the path it takes
Then I absorb it and record
It on these classic tapes

I'm reflecting on my story
And the path it takes
Then I absorb it and record
It on these classic tapes
I'm reflecting on my story
Re-reflecting on my story-story
Absorb it and record it
On the classic tapes so blast it"

Our life is a mission
And we fight to keep livin
See the path that we make is formed
By all these decisions
Big or small I recall
But that's easy in hindsight
To look back at a bad choice
And wish to retry life
But the future is different
We don't know if we'll exist then
It all seems so distant
Then it shows up in an instant
So persistent
We can only move forward
On a search for the answer
And I hope I'm getting warmer

We all make mistakes
Keep on pressing
If you fight it through
No question that the lesson
Learned will spark a light inside of you
Take hold of what I'm writing you
And If my flow inspires you
The glow will grow inside of you
And show that you are tried and true
Stay focused
On the moment know
That even when the sky is blue
Enormous storms are forming a swarm
A clouds to blind your view
Whatever you decide
To do remember this enlightened truth
Life is a blessing
Not something you're entitled to

"I'm learning from my past mistakes
Cuz my life was moving way too
Fast had to smash the breaks
So I'm reflecting
On my story and the path it takes
Then I absorb it and record it
On these classic tapes

I'm reflecting on my story
And the path it takes
Then I absorb it and record it
On these classic tapes
I'm reflecting on my story
Re-reflecting on my story-story
Absorb it and record it
On the classic tapes so blast it"
