Outkast - In Due Time lyrics
[Chorus]
You just keep your faith in me
Don`t act impatiently
You`ll never get where you need to be
In due time
Even when things go slow
Hold on and don`t let go
I`ll give you what I ow
In due time
[Verse One:]
When that * be thinkin of cruisin`
The Braves cap is to the side
Thinkin` the police gon` pull me over
With this * off in my ride
So I hide the brick of weed
Under the arm rest, under the leather
Thinkin` of startin ways
To make my life a little better
Then the dope peddler
Never pay no * taxes
Takin a chunk up out my check
And makin my rhymes just look like practice
Buyin` clothing, Range Roving
With my folks
Don`t speak about the Dirty South
My crew ain`t bout no jokes
I know some people don`t like the way we flow
Because they envy
They talkin bout they * my *
And that they could have been me
You lookin to be that butterfly
Without the caterpillar
Take your time and do it right
Cause you gon make it
I swear my
Or collapse 1
Falling a victim to your greed boy
Your looking to be Big Willie
But ou`re still a seed boy
The information in my skull
Be pokin` some of ya`ll on the shoulder
But on the other side of the fence
They got * breakin` boulders
For quick money
[Bridge]
Struggle is just a part of my day
Many obstachave been placed in my way
I know the only reason that I make it through
Is because I never stop believing in you
Some people wonder why we`re here in the 1st place
They can`t believe because they ain`t never seen your face
But even when you pray, the next day you gotta try
Can it wait 4 nobody 2 come down out the sky
You`ve got to realize that the world`s a test
You can only do your best and let him do the rest
You`ve got your life, you`ve got your health
So quit procrastinating and push it yourself
You`ve got to realize that the world`s a test
You can only do your best and let him do the rest
You`ve got your life, you`ve got your health
So quit procrastinating
[Verse 2:]
Who said good folks is not supposed to die
The same * that said * is not supposed to cry
United States giving out milk and cheese to pacify
I`m sure they got a cure 4 A.I.D.S., but yet it`s classified
You wonder why I spit the truth and not 2 make no dough
To make a differencefo` this * up and blow
In piece, I could thinkof many reasons
Only when * is going bad you want to holla Jesus
I pledge allegiance, they got my knuckles bleeding
From crawling , got these * thinkin they ballin`
When they isn`t, don`t take my word,
there`s * off in prison
That will tell yo, that`s locked up 4 a long time and won`t sell you
No flex, so congregation will turn you text,
To the book of OutKast, chapter 2, verse 1
The 1st 1, that make me jump up and make a joyful noise
You`se OutKasted, meaning you now have a choice like that
[Chorus: repeat 2x]
