remy r.e.d - getaway lyrics

[intro]
yo
i been meaning to tell you
that i’m right here

[verse 1]
she was young innocent pure, so much passion
back in school kids used to make fun of her fashion
tryna get by, never took any actions
so many questions, she was too afraid to as; it just so happens
her father came a real long way
to give em’ a piece of freedom so he works all day
and aside from being racially profiled, and dealin’ with the stress
the reason you won’t smile, well somehow
i feel your pain though it’s hard to explain, but me
i’m like you, yeah we partially the same
cuz we keep it all inside, hardly complain
but i can’t watch you cry, pardon me sayin’
at times i see you walk in the rain; you feelin’ strange
cuz society is callin’ you names, don’t believe em’
must’ve been a few times you thought about leavin’
but i’m here by your side to keep the odds even (believe me)

[chorus]
i know you wanna (getaway)
i know you wanna (getaway)
what makes you cry, let me know why
i know you wanna (getaway)
what makes you cry, let me know why
i know you wanna (getaway)
[verse 2}
she once had a vision, that she could be free
from this systematic prison of lower class division
workin’ two jobs to pay for class tuition
and i know you went through h+ll to make it past admissions
family tradition, so much ambition
from a girl to a woman, not a easy transition
wanted to getaway but can’t make the decision
and her brother died in war so she cry cuz she miss him
cold world we live in, shake off the stress
kept the same mind frame, changed how you dressed
and when the boys try to holla you kept em’ all in check
so i appreciate the way that you taught us about respect
i ain’t tryin’ get religious, but god knows best
people lie just to keep you oppressed, don’t believe em’
must’ve been a few times you thought about leavin’
but i’m here by your side to keep the odds even (i got you)
