Videoclip Jay-Z 10. Some How Some Way

Please believe that 
Some how some way 
We gotta make it up out the hood some day 
Some how some way 
We gotta make it up out this life 
Some how some way 
We gotta make it up out the hood some day 
Some way we gotta make it up out this life 
 
Whether we dribble out this motherfucker 
Rap metaphors and riddle out this motherfucker 
Work second floors, hospital out this motherfucker 
Some how we gotta get up out this motherfucker 
Some day the cops will kill a motherfucker 
I don't always want to be this drug dealing motherfucker damn 
Wish I could take us all on this magic carpet ride through the sky 
 
I use to play the hall up fifth floor me 
And my boys we all poor getting high 
I seen the worst of the worst I deserve every blessing I received 
I'm from the dirt, I planted my seed on unfertile land 
Myrtle Park, Marcy, Flushing and Nostrand 
And still I grew some how I knew the sun will shine through 
And touch my soul take hold of my hand 
Look man a tree grows in Brooklyn 
 
Some how some way 
I gotta make it up out the hood someday 
Some how some way 
I gotta make it up out this life, c'mon 
Some way I gotta make it up out the hood someday 
 
To old Nell, Sigel street I ain't forget you 
Twenty niggas on the block trying to chase that buck 
Nosey neighbors and haters keep their face on stuck 
Cops roll up on the pavement break the dice games up 
Behind smoke kids can't chase the ice cream truck 
Girls fighting over Rollie young boys hype things up 
 
Niggas fighting over Cold young boys light things up 
All the petty ass wars fuck the night scene up 
Remember Lil' Eddie man how he light mean up 
Then they wonder why we light green up 
Back to back steamer trying to relax but I can't 
I lean up, ain't the L or the refer that steam up, that steam up 
 
It's my head stress to the point I get a fever 
Thinking bout the block and all the mothers and kids 
That can't leave and how the Chinks gotta feed'em 
For the rest of their life fucking wings fried 
Vegetable rice, gotta be kidding, no breakfast, Cap'n Crunch at night 
Our kids eating lunch at night in their beds all bunched in tight 
 
No less than three or four, you know how it go 
Two by the foot two by the headboard 
Man I'm getting scared for them, yeah I know 
That's how I feel for 'em and we gotta grip the shorties on the block 
All they do is smoke weed and drink forties, cock their lower quarties 
Enough to get the latest roc, newest glock and old Jordies 
 
Some how some way 
We gonna make it up out this hood one day 
Some how some way 
We gonna make it up out this life 
Some how some way 
We gonna make it up out the hood one day 
Some way we gonna make it up out this life 
 
Right here another lil' story bout this click I claimed 
Another chapter based on how I get that game 
Hanging round my neighborhood and bang my street 
Sit and watch the passer-bys play my sweep 
South-side sunny side blocks I run South Vegas, South Paul 
 
Nigga all got guns 
Over here we got this poor child, he'd that there 
We know tomorrow ain't promise so we get that there 
Fuck sitting in the living room guarding the steps 
Working inside a slump house starving to death 
 
Serving these nigga flippers, quarter-ounces and zippers 
Agents snapping your picture neighbors plotting to get ya 
Situations is critic I was out here to get it 
Living it like a savage cause nigga I gotta have it 
And holding back all the mothers for a minute, pumping hard dog 
 
Erase enough to walk it down and fuck it all dog 
Love being willied and your creek gonna rise 
I'm be a nigga and these streets gonna rise 
Some how some way, some how some way 
I'm be a nigga and these streets gonna rise, some how some way 
 
Some how some way 
We gotta make it up out the hood some day 
Some how some way 
We gotta make it up out this life 
Some how some way 
We gotta make it up out the hood some day 
Some way we gotta make it up out this life
