Is Anybody Listening? lyrics - Brotha Lynch Hung

Is anybody listening?

Is anybody listening?

I'm all alone in this world

Anybody listening?

Is anybody listening?

I'm all alone in this world

Is anybody listening?

Is anybody, anybody, anybody listening?

I'm alone in this world

Anybody listening?

Hard sometimes

I'm alone in this world

It's hard sometimes

I guess not

Cause if they was

They would've heard my pain

Years ago, when I was out there screaming help!

Servin cane and the tears'll flow down my face

Hard not to frown around this place

My homey just went down for eight

My other one just got found in a lake

So I pour the gin, down it straight

Cause liquor's all that cures me

When I'm in this here fucked up mind state

And the whole damn world ignores me

It's like, I ain't trippin y'all

Just sippin more and sippin hard

I cook it soft

I cut it raw

I hit the block and flip it all

I been locked in juvie hall

I been locked in the county jail

For a trunk gun charge and possession for sales

They held your boy without no bail

And I'm knowin they hopin' I'm next to fail

Which cat is next to tell?

Snitchin motherfuckers in my community

Better be next to bail or catch the next of shells

I've been livin next to hell for so long

The difference between is one and the real one I can't tell

I light the blunt, inhale, exhale

Then get to whisperin

Just rappin' to myself

Cause ain't nobody the fuck else listenin'

Is anybody listening?

Is anybody listening?

I'm all alone in this world

So hard

Anybody listening? Is anybody listening??

I'm all alone in this world

Is anybody listening?

Is anybody, anybody, anybody listening?

I'm alone in this world

Anybody listenin'?

Is anybody listening?

I'm all alone in this world

Tryin to hold on in these last days man

I can't keep my grip cause most of the time

These brothers ain't carin about jack

So there's no tomorrow

The horrors of the after life

Feelin like I'm already in hell

Done died twice

Stabbed in the back with a knife

These brothers was triflin'

Shootin off at the mouth

Like they didn't hear the G speak

It makes no difference

This is my life

Ain't gotta be blowed out the pipe

The situation crack

The reason why my daddy never came back

To be the man of the house

I'm on my own with all the doubt

How would I make it out without no father figure?

So I ran with the other thug niggas

Became slash drug dealers

Can't rest my head on no pillow

Dazed by Sleepy Hollow

A world full of danger

I'm no stranger at the crime scene

Investigators all in my program

Cause I got off in that Brougham

Don't know the 'Rip who knockin at my door

I ain't never been the type to live the slow-life

Now they don't understand me no more

So we can't communicate, went through it on my own

That's why I can't pick up the phone

No one know what's goin on

No one know what's goin on

Is anybody listening?

Is anybody, anybody, anybody listening?

I'm all alone in this world

Anybody, anybody

Anybody listening?

Is anybody? Anybody? Anybody?

I'm all alone in this world

Anybody? Anybody?

Is anybody listening?

Oh, I just wanna know

I'm alone in this world

Have I got somebody's attention?

Anybody listening?

Are you listening to me?

I'm all alone in this world

All alone, oh

I been stridin and tryin to do these music thang

Since 85', 86'

Nowadays it's about the paper chase

But when I first started

It was just for kicks

That's what I'm talkin about

It ain't easy tryin to be a billionaire

When everyday yellin but my day closer to death

Lovin every breath

No time to spare

But I ain't lookin for sympathy

Gods strength done blessed the hell out of me

My momma's alive, got a baby on the way

Got a job while I'm getting paid to save

Your parents had it harder than what you do

So what you cryin about?

These little things that you goin through

Ain't nothing to be talkin bout dyin' about

But that's what life is

You here to learn so take your lumps

And while you drivin on a high with a life through stress and stripes

It's straight speed bumps

Slow you role

Take that bump easy and mash the gas

Solvent road ahead

Watch for the po-po's, just don't look back

Playboy 7!

And I'm out, I'm done, I'll see ya

We ain't never met and probably never will

But homey trust me, I feel ya

So yeah, I'm listening

And naw homey, you ain't alone

But see, I can't solve your problems

That's up to you

That's apart of livin life

That's apart of being grown

Is anybody listening?

Oh is anybody listening to me, are you?

I'm all alone in this world

Anybody listening?

Is anybody listening?

I'm all alone in this world

Anybody listening?

Is anybody listening?

We all make mistakes sometimes

I'm alone in this world

Nobody

Anybody listening?

Nobody's listening

I'm all alone in this world
