Luyện nghe bài hát The River Runs Deep

1]
Yo I once knew a man, he off a boy
His damn life he never really been employed
He was 19 had a chance to go to college
Try out his luck to see if he gain knowledge
Think about your life or whatever you it
Now he's a cluck dead broke alcoholic
Used to a picture of his girl in his wallet
about your life or whatever you would call it
He home late 'cuz the city don't sleep
He was only 19 but the river runs
Wrote in his head so he didn't really speak
About the crushed up pills that he in one week
One week turned to 2 2 turned to 4
Now long term addiction knocking at his
Starting losing coming late looking drunk and
His and friends said he was up to something
Got to the point where he couldn't function
Calling up his begging give me something
I just got evicted I got nothing
The dealer was a prick his reply was
I can get you high off the shit no body with
Even all the fiends know better than to it
He was 19 begging please me something
Said to the kid I know if you can trust it
But I got a lot so push it to the
out for the cops and rats on some thug shit
Here's for your lending you this pistol
Pretending it was pure but he knew that it was
Looked like shards of and I hope this ain't a issue
Plus if you snitch well mother gonna miss you
Now he's lost his path and direction
Kicked out his pad land lord inspection
All he had was his rhymes and a dream
Now he's on the streets at the age of 19
Feel the meth in his and the son starts to tweak
Never saw 21 y'all the river runs

Yo I knew a man he started off a boy
His whole damn life he never really been
he turned 19 got a job at the college
Working on the radio where he could knowledge
He thought about his life and how he to recall it
Still he barley ever had a dollar in his
He quit smoking figured that he needed time
So that he could make a in other people's lives
Started money cleared out his mind
No longer just thinking about his rhymes
He walk home late the city don't sleep
He was only 19 but the runs deep
He walk home late 'cuz the city don't
He was 19 but the river runs deep
Wrote raps in his head so he didn't speak
To his homies about the he read in one week
One turned to two, two weeks turned to four
Plus on the side labels at his door
Started gaining fame he be away for months and
Family and friends said isn't he
Worked at the food a block from the Ave
Where this guy meth and kept rocks from a bag
the kid he was grateful that he was helping out
'Cuz he knew first hand he could have gone route
The runs deep kid please hold on
The people we meet the only thing to keep us strong
He could have been selfish have lost it all
he graduated early no adderall
Called up his the one that he trusted
Said to the homie yo please me something
This guy was a his replay was reluctant
Now he gotta find some new beats he could with
I could make you rich if you to this club shit
He was 19 please give me something
the kid gimmicks said push it to the public
Pretended it was pure but he it was corrupted
You have to go we hope this ain't a issue
Family and friends leave they won't miss you
guy was a douchebag he hung up the call
Started self-promoting thinking fuck them all
every day then he posted on his blog
Freestyle clear spitting the fog
Best decision that he made quitting beer logs
Now he live no fear said he listen to the gods
'Cuz all he had was his rhymes and a dream
Now getting signed to Sony at the age of 19
First west coast tour the whole U.S
Now he go new girl new dress
Sold out shows now ain't a stress
He was only 19 would say he was the best
Getting underground respect now the labels calling
Offering him to put money in his wallet
Think about your or whatever you call it
Remember when he used to think he'd be an
Still barely had a dollar in his wallet
Battled with addiction and almost college
But held himself together so that he could spread
Think your life or whatever you call it
There once was a time the sun felt weak
Now he's at 21 y'all the river runs deep

Then one day the kid came
To the city of Seattle he learned how to rap
Said is a battle and the game is a trap
Back to his neighborhood he would get dap
Saw this man in the shadows with his in his lap
lay lifeless wasn't just a nap
His wasn't open holes in his teeth
Pipe on the ground cold on the street
not to look tried to listen to the beat
But this man sat in the middle of the street
Reached in his to pull out his wallet
Like he could save his life or whatever you would it
He turned to the man to offer him his
him in the eyes and realized it was himself
Torn up no shoes on his feet
It was getting late but the city sleep
The man shaking the sun starts to tweak
in the gutter in the mother fucking street
He turned to the kid as his body lay
And as he died kid the river runs deep
The story of my life 'cuz of them were me
Thinking to yo who I wanna be
He turned to the kid as his body lay
And whispered as he died kid the runs deep
