Every Day Songtext
von Down Low

We gon′ get it goin' like this
What goes upon a person?
What goes through the normal day tragedies of life?
Are you ready?
It happens everyday

There lies a drunken man on the streets in the heat
Nothin′ to do, desperately needin' to eat
People passin' by and I know they see
With an open eye, knowin′ that he stands in need
Now life is so hard, and damn, he′s givin' up
There′s so much to live for, though it's tough
I wish I could give him a little hocus pocus

I wish I could tell him to always stay focused
"The pressures of life," he whispered to me
I replied, "Kids and wife, God gave to thee
If you only just reach for the open sky

There′s nothin' you can′t achieve, only if you try"
With a push of my hand, he says, "Leave me alone


I'm better here by myself on my own"
Why people like him have to choose this awful way?
But this what goes down everyday

Everyday, you know that life remains the same
Everyday, no matter who you're playin′
Everyday, you know that life remains the same
Everyday, everyday, everyday
Everyday, you know that life remains the same
Everyday, no matter who you′re playin'
Everyday, you know that life remains the same
Everyday, everyday, everyday

Now here comes a rich man, and understand
Dough in his pockets, many lives he commands
He walks by, whistling in the air, he never stares
He sees the man on the corner but he doesn′t really care
Now his eyes go back, oh boy, do they blink


Deep into his mind, he begins to think
"I got mine and he got his
That's the way life goes, that′s the way life is"
But little do he know, he's wrong
Now here comes the tragedy in the song
Instead of being happy with the money he receives
He takes it for granted as he leaves

Now the drunken man grabs a hold to a gun
Later on that night, it′ll all be done
Another robbery, a murder on the way

But this is what happens somewhere everyday

Everyday, you know that life remains the same
Everyday, no matter who you're playin'
Everyday, you know that life remains the same
Everyday, everyday, everyday
Everyday, you know that life remains the same
Everyday, no matter who you′re playin′
Everyday, you know that life remains the same
Everyday, everyday, everyday

Let me take you to another level
Another dimension in time
Let me show you a vision that happens around us everyday
That's right
Remains the same everyday
