《Happy》歌词

[00:00:00] Happy - Killah Priest

[00:00:03] Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

[00:00:10] A homeless man smiles

[00:00:11] At me showing no teeth

[00:00:13] A young man laying dead

[00:00:14] In the cold streets

[00:00:16] He was a victim beaten

[00:00:17] Bad by the police

[00:00:18] And everyday another funeral

[00:00:20] There's more grief

[00:00:21] And everyday I like to pray

[00:00:22] When I see the Sun

[00:00:24] And if there ever was a

[00:00:25] Lost Tribe we the one

[00:00:26] And every hood there's a project

[00:00:28] With us in it

[00:00:29] The old man in the dust

[00:00:30] Going nuts finished

[00:00:32] Years before you say

[00:00:33] "You used to own businesson tax

[00:00:35] I guess you're black

[00:00:36] You gotta know you limit"

[00:00:37] And everybody tried to be

[00:00:39] Happy someway

[00:00:40] I think of dinners in the winter

[00:00:41] On a Sunday

[00:00:42] And everybody's poor

[00:00:43] But we always pull through it

[00:00:45] 'Cause of Marvin's influence

[00:00:46] We always played his music

[00:00:47] My Pops said he was a

[00:00:49] 'Trouble Man' courtesy of Uncle Sam

[00:00:51] Then I hit the streets then start hustling

[00:00:53] But I could see my Grandma

[00:00:54] When she dressed for Church

[00:00:56] Her stylish hat white dress

[00:00:57] With the matching purse

[00:00:58] And I could hear her sing aloud

[00:01:00] With the choir marching in

[00:01:01] With the face of joy

[00:01:02] Proud of her heart's with him

[00:01:04] And she could live everlasting

[00:01:05] And pure peace

[00:01:06] No longer worried eyes

[00:01:07] Speaks to him before sleep

[00:01:09] And I stood by the door

[00:01:10] When she came at me

[00:01:12] She said "You gotta endure

[00:01:13] And learn to be Happy"

[00:01:14] Stood right beside me

[00:01:16] Look deep inside me

[00:01:19] She has inspired me to be Happy

[00:01:24] Stood right beside me

[00:01:27] Look deep inside me

[00:01:30] She has inspired me to be Happy

[00:01:36] My friend wrote his mother:

[00:01:37] "Mama I'm doing better now

[00:01:38] My last year of College

[00:01:39] Told you I wouldn't let you down

[00:01:41] And how's things around the house

[00:01:42] I know you're still fussing

[00:01:43] I finally heard from Ralphie said

[00:01:45] "He had a deal coming"

[00:01:46] He wrote me last week;

[00:01:47] Told me him and Dad don't speak

[00:01:49] They both be acting

[00:01:50] They're kids if you ask me

[00:01:52] But anyway

[00:01:52] How come you never wrote me back

[00:01:54] This is like my fourth letter to you

[00:01:56] I was hoping that

[00:01:57] You could send me something

[00:01:58] It's getting cold winter's coming

[00:01:59] I know you're standing laughing

[00:02:01] Saying "I'm up or into something"

[00:02:02] I love you mom sincerely yours"

[00:02:04] As the nurse pause

[00:02:05] From reading her his letter

[00:02:06] Body attached to a cord

[00:02:07] Into a breathing pump

[00:02:08] The stroke she had was too much

[00:02:10] She's in the coma

[00:02:11] Been that way for a few months

[00:02:13] And if her son knew believe

[00:02:14] He'll split in two

[00:02:15] And go back to using drug

[00:02:17] Before quitting school

[00:02:18] But just smile

[00:02:19] 'Cause your mother's still here

[00:02:20] Try to live and be proud

[00:02:22] Make a heart full of cheer

[00:02:23] For your mama tranquility she's free

[00:02:26] Give your heart space

[00:02:27] And liberty and then peace

[00:02:29] The words are golden

[00:02:30] Emotion devotion

[00:02:31] Just hush feel the touch for a moment

[00:02:34] My life's a paradox

[00:02:35] Watched by crooked cops

[00:02:37] But the law carries me just to be

[00:02:39] Stood right beside me

[00:02:42] Look deep inside me

[00:02:44] She has inspired me to be Happy

[00:02:50] Stood right beside me

[00:02:52] Look deep inside me

[00:02:55] She has inspired me to be Happy

[00:03:01] Dedicated to my grandmother

[00:03:03] Miss Louise Staley

[00:03:07] I love you Grandma
