Lauryn Hill and Curtis Mayfield – Here But I’m Gone


Soundtrack from The Mod Squad (MGM 1999), relaesed on WEA/ Elektra label. NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT INTENDED. Lauryn Hill (LH): (Watch this…A-ah) Exhausting every chance These victims of circumstance Dancing the circle of confusion With cold muses Grab their soul with a tight grip Then uses up All your power While the weak man he loses And is deep how Whenever man speak now he refuses To remember the abuses And all the people he misuses And there ain’t no excuses Cos in every situation man chooses His own plate, his own fate, his own date At redemption, and only fools and babies get exemption Cos, in the hereafter school, see we all stay for detention And did I mention It’s either ascention or dessention, no third dimension, so pay attention… Curtis Mayfield (LH in background): How did I get so far gone Where do I belong And where in the world did I ever go wrong If I took the time to replace What my mind erased I still feel as if I’m here but I’m gone Porched up in a rocking-chair With my feet all bare Rolling my blunt in a cigar wrap Live an adolescent mind Never do take the time Waiting for my high, quiet as it’s kept How did I get so far gone Where do I belong And where in the world did I ever go wrong If I took the time to replace What my mind erased I still feel as if I’m here but I’m gone Mama told me I was best Argue and punch in my chest “Son now be strong, let me take you home” I’d see in her eyes so sincere Screaming, what got me here Standing in the world
