lirik lagu street hymns - next man
what you do to the greatest is what you do to the least
least we can do is do great
[verse 1: street hymns]
i just got back from a show and i smell like cigarette smoke
sin is on my clothes but it’s never on my breath though
yeah i had some stress but l never puff that stress though
i’m just going to the places let’s go, so let’s go
don’t get confused if i move to the ghetto
i’m giving them the news that i was told to spread so
don’t judge cos i’m just trying to love
cos it’s hard to sleep good when you know they’re livin tough
so if you out there in the midst of giving up
just know we out there cos we know what giving does
i want nothing in return
just dab me up or give a hug
i only ask you do the same to others
brother that’s enough
it’s great to have another show when you know you’re hurting
no looking up, no looking down
we’re face to face i’m serving
i’ll never look at you and see someone that’s worse than
i’ll only look at you and always see a person yeah
[chorus]
rich man, poor man
both die, there’s one thing that is sure man
if your brother’s hurting you should be the cure man
don’t see class or see race
just see pure man
we’re all kings, no such thing as a less man
cos there’s no man better than the next man
there’s no man better than the next man
[verse 2: street hymns]
i’ve been to places where the stomachs never struggle
money talks, also been to where they mumble
but you wouldn’t know cos on the low being poor makes you humble
and the affluent also have their troubles
they come up on the milli an we say
“man that’s something that i want too”
and if you fin’ly get that one, that’s when you gon want two
is this thing gone? 1, 2
check what you really treasure cos wherever you
get pleasure that is what your heart will want too
so, don’t ever say “if only i had this, i would give that”
cos if didn’t give when you had lit, you won’t give back
someone asked “could you spare some
change so i can get some gas to get away?”
when i heard that ~laughs~
i said “yeah, what a concept
i could use a little few myself and
we could all use a little change, yeah ”
[chorus]
rich man, poor man
both die, there’s one thing that is sure man
if your brother’s hurting you should be the cure man
don’t see class or see race
just see pure man
we’re all kings, no such thing as a less man
cos there’s no man better than the next man
there’s no man better than the next man
[verse 3: tned]
yo well
well i grew up in the streets of dallas
that’s where mama and daddy went to college
mama got a masters honours degree
and she got her a man with a doctorates
rollin through the city shopping all
up in the windows of the city’s profits
never stopping cos we borrowing and if
we stoping we just looking so benign ay
okay i know poor man that used to be
rich and a rich man that used to be poor
and they both grew up in the streets of dallas
they used to talk to each other, not no more
and i think it’s cos rich man be full of that pride
and the poor man be full of that pride
funny cos rich man be wishing he died
and poor man be saying he feel so alive
poor man then wised up and got him a bride
and i heard richy got another ride
rich man forgot poor man had him a wedding
he called him up later and him he’s sorry
poor man said “don’t worry bout it, i’m good ”
richy said “let me buy you som’n, i should”
poor man said “richy i don’t need your money ”
richy said ~scoffs~ “oh that’s funny”
poor man said “rich you know what can do? ”
rich man said “poor you know what you can do? ”
poor man’s wife said to him “baby be humble
cos he need the blessing and we need the food
we need to be humble and show him the truth
cos right now that’s just too hard for him to do”
poor man said “baby i don’t care, he rude!”
baby said “10 years ago that was you
and when your life changed that’s when i said i do
i know you remember cos you was the fool
i had to show you that your heart was hard
you couldn’t have me until you knew god”
richy had heard poor man’s wife
through the phone and it humbled his heart
he heard him a song
he said “i don’t know why i live like valone ”
poor man said “you don’t have to any more”
richy said “poor man you don’t know the story”
poor man said “it don’t matter, you my boy”
poor man said “i got your back that’s no matter
the cost to the end and just life from the start
richy said “i remember back when you was
rich too, i can’t sit here and let you work jobs”
poor man said “richy, you blind?
i’m richer than you cos everything i have is god’s ”
rich man, poor man
