o'hene savant - the subway (wats version) lyrics

[verse 1]
now ever since i was a kid, the subway has been a friend
we always used to ride but never thought of where it went
so many places for all the different faces
different occupations and none in some cases
see there’s a lady with a baby in a c+rs+at
who’s headed home to discover what she thought, see
the hood is buzzin’ ‘bout this other woman and her husband
but what she doesn’t know is that woman is her cousin
then she’ll discover that her lover doеsn’t really love her
thеn she’ll recall all the nights that he wouldn’t touch her
being a single mother’s hard, not enough pay
she got a rough day, from the subway

[refrain]
the subway
the subway
the subway
the subway

[verse 2]
now there’s a man in the seat right across from me
with a tyrant of a boss that be bossin’ him
extra hours yet the dollars don’t be adding up
he’s had it up to— let’s just say that he’s had enough
he had a rough couple days, see his mama passed
and time had passed for utilities on top of that
his pockets flat so the job he has gotta last
he barely made it on his train, someone dropped a pass
but what he doesn’t know is later he’ll be comfortable
as he’s discovered by the owner of the company, yo
who visited as a shopper wasn’t dressed proper
he’ll treat him best, got the best ride from
the subway
[refrain]
the subway
the subway
the subway
the subway

[verse 3]
see there’s a teen in the sp+ce right in front of me
heading home to a place she don’t wanna be
she has a father that’s abusive, feeling like it’s foolish to tell her school, it’s useless, hiding all the bruises
playing music, i can’t hear what she’s listening to
it’s difficult, plus this train keeps shifting too
i just imagine that it’s me with the song i’m writing
even though i just started, she’s gonna like it
‘cause i’ma tell her that her daddy’s ‘bout to be in jail
you see her teacher this time doesn’t believe she fell
and she don’t have to be scared ‘cause daddy’s upstate
and granny wants you at her place after the subway

[refrain]
yeah, the subway
the subway
the subway
the subway

[verse 4]
now there’s a guy on the train, seeing everything
just observing, he rides the train everyday
his destination’s not apparent, he kinda rides
forming stories in this thing that’s behind his eyes
you watch him cry and sometimes you watch him smile
all depends on events from inside his house
he’s jotting down everything, even ugly parts
it’s therapeutic even though now it’s becoming harsh
see what he’s come to know is this ride gets hard
and when he gets off, someone else gets on
someone that reads what he wrote, maybe one day he’ll write as well
finding tales on the subway
[refrain]
the subway
the subway
the subway
the subway
