Just Another Story

Hey, hey-yah...

Now it occurred to me,
As I awoke from deeper dreams,
All of this evolution,
Still I don't know what it means.           (Hey)
And it gets so hard for me to change,
When there's an easy way to earn.
Why should I work my fingers to the bone?         (To the bone)
Is this what I truly deserve?

This is not
Another
Trilogy.
  (Just another story, just another story,
  Just another story, just another story,
  Just another story, just another story,
  Just another story, baby...)

Nobody make a move!
Oh this kid's got you covered.
He was just seventeen,
Trying to get on like his dead brother.
Momma couldn't do a thing about him,
Though she hurt inside,
And Daddy wants his son back
While he knows he's still alive.

  Stick up kid, thinkin' you're a glory boy,
  Oh, fronting that stupid toy.
  But you don't get that
  It's yourself you will destroy.

Like a speed-freak king of amphetamine,
Still running those rocks on the front line,
Get uptight when it's your turn,
A bullet in the head is a lesson learned.
One of these days you're gonna say goodbye,
Telling everyone you've never been so high,
Born the same time that you die,
Pushin' that draw like a superfly.

Heaven help all with no way out,
That's what this is all about.
This is not another trilogy,
It's just another story baby!

    Hit 'em with it now,
    Come on, now, hit 'em with it now,
    Ah, stick up kid.
    Come on,
    Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha,
    I gotcha where I want ya.
    Nobody make a fucking move.
    
    All these gangster kids are gettin' uptight,
    All these gangster kids are gettin' uptight!
    I gotcha! I gotcha where I want ya now!
    Nobody make a fucking move!

Nobody make a move,
Oh this kid's got you covered.
He was just seventeen,
Trying to get on like his dead brother, oh.
Momma couldn't do a thing about him,
Though she hurt inside,
And Daddy wants his son back
While he knows he's still alive.

  Stick up kid, oh thinkin' you're a glory boy,
  Sick of fronting that stupid toy.
  But you just don't get that
  It's yourself you will destroy.

Still running those rocks on the front line,
Like a speed-freak king of amphetamine.
Get uptight when it's your turn,
A bullet in the head is a lesson learned.
One of these days you gonna say goodbye,
Telling everyone you've never been so high
Born the same time that you die, you're
Pushing that draw like a superfly.

    This is just another story,
    All your broken glories.
    Oh just another story       (talking 'bout streetlights...)
    Oaahh... somebody, somebody, hey, now,
    Need your help, oh now.
    Every day, every day,
    Every time of day,        

(Say this is not another trilogy,
Oh, just another story!)

Come on now, push it.
Oh, push it to the outer bridge, Damn.        
Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha,
Stick up kid!
Oh, right in D! Hit 'em!
