Sidewalkin lyrics
CHORUS:
step, step, we part, we meet
head down to the ground as I move my feet
sidewalkin, I weave through the people
ain t got the time for a nice to meet you
step, step, we part, we meet
I feel the energy between us but you re out of my reach
sidewalkin, I never look you in the eyes
only worry bout myself so I walk to the side
headphones on, ipod in my palm
lace my new kicks and I m gone
I m right where I belong so I m calm
that last thing I need is a need for alarm, so I keep moving on
I got it going on, feeling good, feeling right
fresh to death yes all my gear lookin tight
so I stay out of sight, out of eye contact
cause why look at me when you can look at all that
I stop by the main strip, cop what I need
or at least what I need to make me feel complete
make me feel fulfilled, I m lost in my thoughts
I pay the cost, unaware of the major loss
but I keep walkin, to the side as I glide
pickin up my stride with nobody as my guide
tryin not to collide with the passer-by s
so if I walk right by you, don t act surprised
CHORUS:
step, step, we part, we meet
head down to the ground as I move my feet
sidewalkin, I weave through the people
ain t got the time for a nice to meet you
step, step, we part, we meet
I feel the energy between us but you re out of my reach
sidewalkin, I never look you in the eyes
only worry bout myself so I walk to the side
I keep on sidewalkin like I m in a rush
maneuvering and staying out of touch
but just as I turn the corner this guy surprised me
told me to hold up, thought he recognized me
I feel like I know him, feel like I ve seen him around
and I ain t ever sidewalked to this part of town
he told me he could see me and that he knew me well
it wasn t hard to tell that this guy could use some help
I said look I don t know you, I don t really
care what you go through, I ain t gotta do nothin for you
I didn t approach you, I don t do that
I don t owe you, look I m sidewalkin on my own two
...he just stood there and smiled, looked me in my eyes
like he could see past my disguise
so why was I still trying to hide
the only thing I knew how to do was turn to the side
CHORUS:
step, step, we part, we meet
head down to the ground as I move my feet
sidewalkin, I weave through the people
ain t got the time for a nice to meet you
step, step, we part, we meet
I feel the energy between us but you re out of my reach
sidewalkin, I never look you in the eyes
only worry bout myself so I walk to the side
streets is dangerous, so I stay on the sidewalk
where I got my own space outlined in chalk
but that ll fade away with just a little rain
a temporary drug for the pain
side effects including losing identity
short-term serenity prescribed by the enemy
I can t deal with anything after this moment in time
this remedy ain t everything I was hoping to find
I sidewalk with a mask on, but what for
when I ve been designed to do so much more
I know it when I write to the beat
the fact that I m still on my feet makes my cypher complete
whether cruisin , or walking, man I m never losing
I want you to see me let there be no confusion
if walkin on this side means I cant be human
...then I best keep moving
CHORUS:
step, step, we part, we meet
head down to the ground as I move my feet
sidewalkin, I weave through the people
ain t got the time for a nice to meet you
step, step, we part, we meet
I feel the energy between us but you re out of my reach
sidewalkin, I never look you in the eyes
only worry bout myself so I walk to the side3
