g, the wiz - vancouver general hospital lyrics

[hook: the antlers]
when you fell crossing that street
south of houston, old manhattan land
those nightmares fell from building-tops
and took you by the hand
and you were brought into those rooms
with sliding curtains, shining children’s heads
and one of them, that boy
was not as lucky as you then

[verse one: g, the wiz]
when i was a younger i had this nightmare
that when i grew up life wouldn’t be fare
and it all came true in just the knick of the time
i was five years when i saw that crime
i shouldn’t have seen it i shouldn’t have known
all the big words that destroyed my world
it was late night fall 6 months from 20
when i stumbled on my life in this crowded city
i wasn’t drunk. i was just out of line
just out of my mind thinking of suicide
it was a modern affair with the lies i was told
by the girl that i knew but my love never sold
i was disheartened. soon to be departed. i had it
over the bridge with my manic depression
they grabbed my arm but just couldn’t grip it
people screamed and traffic halted
sirens wailed. i was falling
before my eyes i saw my life flashing

[verse two: g, the wiz]
and there i was, fast asleep
in the waters and at heavens gate
my soul replenished and i felt great
but i couldn’t get through
something had to give
when i heard a voice and a gust of wind
he said, look here kid, are you here by mistake?
man, you still got time quit making your break
i said let me in, your world ain’t sh-t
the folks below just k!ll and k!ll
i called you with my hands
but you just don’t listen
you don’t care if i’m in pain
if i’m stuck in the rain
and it’s just not fair, it’s just not fair
that the rich get richer and poor die in vein
he said i gave you everything
you just don’t know how to use it
if you gave it some time you’d probably know it
i brought her to you for a certain reason
perhaps you should have been a better person
so think of the time when she was at her worst
while you ran in your mind trying to save yourself
you could have saved yourself by saving her too
but that’s long gone now it’s time for tomorrow
don’t spend your whole life chasing rainbows
you can’t get back what has already move on
and as for your childhood
that i cannot say
for the reason for that i feel is still happening
discover a p-ssion an inner calling
pick up a dream. don’t rip it by the seams
the world will miss you if you come here now
and for a second as you live don’t you ever doubt
you may think that i’m not listening
you may think that i’m not listening
but god d-mn, i am
and i am whatever you say i am
and if i wasn’t you probably wouldn’t be here to stand
in your heart and mind everyday i am
yet you people just don’t understand
i’m just the phantom limb of your gut instinct
i had a moment and i gave out of a sigh
i asked if this is it? is this where i’m going?
he said not today. here’s your second chance
redeem yourself and don’t forget
there are people i meet and some are kids
who’d do anything heaven just to live again
so count your blessings and not your stresses
with a jolt in my fall, i fell like star
on the hospital bed close to being called dead
i saw the monitor and i saw my pulse again
but it went flat again and i saw the stars above
it was like tug of war between life and death
i could hear the doc saying “we lost him again.”
it was painful, beautiful, and so unknown
he said believe in yourself. you’re letting go
for a second i struggled. i saw all the lights
i’m trying, i said. i try so hard
through my tears and fears. i just fall and fall
he said not this time and i gave it my all
i chocked on air back to life. it
the doctor amazed that i won the fight
i’m never going back until my time is right
