Something in the way of
Something that quit and won't start
Something you know but stand
Can't know, get along like death
on top of the car
Peering the windshield for his cue
Something entirely fictitious and
That creeps across your path hallowing your evil
Like were yourself, passing yourself not smiling

The dead guy you saw me talking to is boss
I to put a spell on him but his spirit is illiterate
I know things you know and nothing you know
Except I saw something in the way of
Something grinning at me and I to know, was it funny?
Was it so funny it me down the street
everybody like the good humor man
And they got the taste of humor but no ice cream
It was like

Me talking people into the houses
And not seeing the beings crowding me
ice picks, you could see them
But they looked like important Negroes on the way to funeral
Looked like important jiggaboos on the way to auction
And let them chant the
And use an ivory pointer to your teeth
Remember Steppen
Remember Steppen how we laughed
An all your Sunday school giving flesh and giggling
With the ice high off his head
you laugh anyway

I can see in the way of ourselves
I can see something in the way of
That's why I say the things I do, you it
But it's else to you, like that job
This morning you got there and it was quiet
And the machines were soft behind you
for that nigga to come and give up his life
Standin' there bein' dissed and broke and

My mistake is I sayin', "That was proof
God exist"
And you me, "Nah, it was proof that the devil do"
But it's like I see something, I hear things
I saw words in the white lying rag
he was gonna die poor and frustrated
That them dreams which you 'cross town
He's gonna die from over

There's garbage on the street tellin' you, you ain't shit
And you almost it
Broke and mistaken all the
You know some of the but they ain't the right ones
cable back on but ain't nothin' you can see
But I see something in the way of
Something to make us
Something get us drunk from noise and to sadness
I see something and feel something us
Like and ugly thing floating at our back us names
You see it and it too

But you say, "It got a right to
Just like you and if God made it but we got to argue"
And the light come down around us
though we remember where the mic is
Remember the squinting at us through the cage
You've what I see too?
The that ain't a smile but teeth flying against our necks
You see something too but can't call it's

"Ain't it too bad" said
Ain't it too bad, such a nice boy always to his mother
Always say good morning to on his way to work
But that last time before he got locked up and hurt, bad
I him walkin' toward his house and he wasn't smiling
And he even say hello
But I knew he'd seen something, in the way of things
That it on him like it do in will
And he kept marching faster and away from us
And never muttered a word
Then the next day he was

You know, what? You wanna know what I'm talkin' about
Sayin', "I've seen something in the way of
And how the boys face that day"
Just before took him away
There is in face and remember now
all them other faces
And all the many places seen him
Or the sister with his child wandering up the
Remember what you've seen in own mirror
And didn't for a second the face, your own face
Straining to get out from behind the

Open mouth like you was gon' say somethin'
Close your eyes and what you saw
And what it made you like
Now, don't you see else
Something cold and
Not invisible but with the shadow
Criss-crossing the old man, by the drug store
At the corner with is head uneasily on his folded arms
And the boy that smiled and the girl he went

And in my eyes too, a waving
Splitting them into the jet stream of a black with his ass on fire
Or the solemn notness of where we go to know we gonna be
I something, I seen something
And you seen it too, you it too
You just can't it's name
