Doorway Songtext
von Wiley

If you can′t see, wipe your eyes and look straight forward
If you can't see, wipe your eyes and look straight forward
If you can′t see, wipe your eyes and look straight forward
If you can't see, wipe your eyes and look straight forward

Would you want money or happiness?
Me, I'm likely to go for the money
But going for the money could lead to disaster
I′m a rude boy, I spend money much faster

I′m not stupid, no, I'm a saver
When I was young, man, I used to be a raver
Now I entertain the ravers
Plus I gotta pave the way for the youngers
I gotta break them barriers
You can′t hold me back
I want my people to see the system is a disease
And we are the carriers
Killing each other 'cause of heroin, crack, cocaine and money


We have gotta break these barriers fast
A class ain′t worth this hassle
I'm looking to the future
Everybody looking to the future with me
Let′s forget the past and look for the doorway

If you can't see, wipe your eyes and look straight forward
Can't you even see that we are blind to ourselves?
Change your ways
Try to understand life before you pull
The trigger and take another life
I think life′s worth more than drugs and money

You didn′t think you would see me getting somewhere in life
I'm sitting up here in life
No amount of money is worth more than happiness
I can tell you that, believe me
I got pain that′s never gonna go away
This pain is here to stay with me
But still, I'm on the road to success and that′s the other side
Take a bit of rough with the smooth, it's alright
Life′s like a fairground ride
I'm trying to learn about life, it's hard

I′m hurting inside, I′m burning inside

But one good thing, I'm determined inside


And part of my heart is working inside
′Cause if I can be loved, then I can love back
Part of my unhappiness is that
'Cause I don′t roll around family and that, I'm on my own

If you can′t see, wipe your eyes and look straight forward
Can't you even see that we are blind to ourselves?
Change your ways
Try to understand life before you pull
The trigger and take another life
I think life's worth more than drugs and money

It looks all good from the outside
Creps and cars and bikes and sleepless nights
And pointless fights in the manor
Everybody wants to be the top boy in the manor
Hanging on the street estates and blazing on the stairs
I′m not having it either, blud
Nobody′s having it
That's gonna lead to a pool of blood
We′re bound to draw blood
The streets are cold, you won't wanna be around

When stray bullets fly around

I just wanna hustle my town and cover my ground
Go to my yard and lie down
Don′t really wanna be tied down, I've tried that

So I gotta move on in life and look right past that

I′m in a class of my own, I got status

Come on, Wiley, you can do this
I gotta get through this

Concentrate and focus

I can see clearly through my lenses

I'm a reason so you should start to take note
'Cause you might learn a little something

I′m like you, one day I was broke
And then I got money and then I went broke
And then I got money and then I went broke
It′s the usual cycle
That's why people can′t cope
Can't cope, you stay there, laugh and joke
′Til one day it's not a laugh or a joke
Confusion hits your head, you can′t see
You turn to other things, you're angry inside

You can't be weak to overcome the system we are in
You′ve gotta be powerful
Don′t underestimate people
I can show you now, I proved to myself I can do it, boy
