Luyện nghe bài hát Something in the Way of Things (In Town)

In
In
In

in the way of things
Something that will and won't start
Something you know but stand
Can't know, get along with death
on top of the car
Peering through the for his cue
Something fictitious and true
That across your path hallowing your evil ways
Like they yourself, passing yourself not smiling

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

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

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

My is I kept sayin', "That was proof
God exist"
And you told me, "Nah, it was that the devil do"
But still like I see something, I hear things
I saw words in the white boy's rag
Said he was gonna die poor and
That them dreams walk you 'cross town
He's gonna die over work

garbage on the street that's tellin' you, you ain't shit
And you almost it
and mistaken all the time
You know some of the words but they ain't the ones
Your cable back on but ain't you can see
But I see in the way of things
Something to us stumble
Something get us drunk from noise and addicted to
I see something and something stalking us
and ugly thing floating at our back calling us names
You see it and it too

But you say, "It got a right to
Just you and if God made it but then we got to argue"
And the light gon' down around us
though we remember where the mic is
Remember the squinting at us through the cage
You've seen what I see
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" y'all
Ain't it too bad, such a nice boy always kind to his
Always say good morning to on his way to work
But that last before he got locked up and hurt, real bad
I seen him walkin' toward his and he wasn't smiling
And he didn't even say
But I knew he'd something, something in the way of things
it worked on him like it do in will
And he marching faster and faster away from us
And never even muttered a
Then the next day he was

You wanna know, what? You wanna know I'm talkin' about
Sayin', "I've seen in the way of things
And how the boys face looked day"
Just before they took him
There is in face and remember now
all them other faces
And all the many places you've him
Or the sister with his child wandering up the
Remember you've seen in your own mirror
And for a second recognize the face, your own face
Straining to get out from behind the

Open your like you was gon' say somethin'
Close your eyes and what you saw
And what it made you feel
Now, you see something else
cold and ugly
Not but blended with the shadow
Criss-crossing the old man, squatting by the drug
At the corner with is head resting on his folded arms
And the boy that and the girl he went with

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