Luyện nghe bài hát The River Runs Deep

1]
Yo I once knew a man, he off a boy
His whole life he never really been employed
He was only 19 had a to go to college
Try out his luck to see if he could knowledge
Think your life or whatever you call it
Now just a cluck dead broke alcoholic
Used to keep a picture of his in his wallet
Think about life or whatever you would call it
He walk home late the city don't sleep
He was only 19 but the river deep
Wrote in his head so he didn't really speak
About the up pills that he took in one week
One week turned to 2 2 turned to 4
Now long term addiction at his door
Starting weight coming late looking drunk and
His and friends said he was up to something
Got to the point where he even function
Calling up his dealer begging give me
I got evicted I ain't got nothing
The dealer was a his reply was reluctant
I can get you high off the shit no fuck with
Even all the fiends know than to touch it
He was 19 please give me something
Said to the kid I don't know if you can 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 protection lending you this
Pretending it was but he knew that it was crystal
Looked shards of glass and I hope this ain't a issue
Plus if you snitch well mother gonna miss you
Now he's lost his path school and
Kicked out his pad after land lord
All he ever had was his rhymes and a
Now he's on the streets at the age of 19
Feel the meth in his lungs and the son starts to
Never saw 21 y'all the river runs

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

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