Gary Clark Jr. - Blak and Blue (Remix) lyrics

[Intro: Big KRIT] What's good, get rid of them for the people Black and blue remix, let's go shawty [Verse 1: Gary Clark Jr] When you're feeling down and out When you're feeling black and blue You should feel like you can come to me And I'll tell you the truth Yet somewhere we got twisted How do we get lifted? How did we not go insane? For so long we've existed Still we are resisted Why is it we still remain? [Hook] Black and blue, yeah Black, black and blue Oh no, don't leave me Black and blue, yeah Black, black and blue Oh no, don't leave me [Verse 2: Big KRIT] Knockin' on your door again, I heard you across the hall Decided to provide you with knowledge that might just pause Decisions to up and go, I know what you're going through No need to be shy about it, ain't none of us brand new Don't let the world brand you and hand you no a** whoopin' You gotta knuckle up, knuck and buck, shake your dreads Ain't talking about the club save your dub make your bread Pursue your dreams, stay clean, don't have no stanky leg Because they don't really dance no more If you ain't down for the cause what you standin' for We need an antidote, for all this hate To people that relate, keep doing what it takes Not to be black and blue [Hook] [Verse 3: Gary Clark Jr] They say you get just what you paid for And that you reap just what you sow So, you won't get everything you pray for Surprises me that you don't know, by now I need something to hold on to While the world is spinning 'round and 'round It could crumble any moment I keep my feet on solid ground, for now [Hook]
