Sometimes I feel like I’m just wasting time
Sometime I feel like I’m losing my mind cause there ain’t
Sometimes I’m just spinning my wheels, ain’t no big deal Morning, there’s another side
Sometimes I feel like I’m just standing in place, ain’t no real race Ain’t no other side
Life is like a circle and you end up where you started If you end up where you started ain’t no other side
Yeah, but if life is like a curtain that I’m 90% certain that I’m looking through at something Yes, I’m almost touching something on the other side
Yeah, the opposite of new is old The opposite of young is old Seems like everything has got another side Yeah, but young ones want to be old ones Old ones know what they would do if they was young ones People ain’t never really satisfied People ain’t never satisfied
If life is like a mirror then the nearer you get clearer You can see it so much clearer Feel like you know about the other side
My friends all swear that they know
What I should do with my life What should be happening with my life They’re on the other side
They’re on the outside
Things always look so much better on the other side Four O’clock in the morning All the things I been needing And they don’t know
And they don’t know They don’t know the other side
Yeah, Momma don’t need to see me this way
I don’t want to call him I don’t want to know him I don’t want to need him I don’t want to feel it I don’t want to know
Tomorrow ain’t coming Tomorrow will always where it was Maybe I could start all over at home
Pulling on me, rolling with me
Yes, I’d like to go home More from Gil Scott Heron
