The Other Side Part I
--Gil Scot Heron
Sometimes I feel like Iâm just wasting time
Looking for another side
Sometime I feel like Iâm losing my mind âcause there ainât
No other side
Sometimes Iâm just spinning my wheels, ainât no big deal
Morning, thereâs another side
Sometimes I feel like Iâm just standing in place, ainât no real race
Ainât no other side
Life is like a circle and you end up where you started
If you end up where you started ainât no other side
Yeah, but if life is like a curtain that Iâm 90
certain that Iâm looking through at something
Yes, Iâm 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 ainât never really satisfied
People ainât 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
My friends all swear that they know
What I should do with my life
How I should run my life
What should be happening with my life
Theyâre on the other side
Theyâre on the outside
Iâm on the inside
Things always look so much better on the other side
Four Oâclock in the morning
They donât know
All the things I been needing
They donât know
Breaking out in a sweat
And they donât know
Feeling down
And they donât know
They donât know the other side
I need to go home
Momma could change it
Daddy could help me
Yes, I could go home
Yeah, Momma donât need to see me this way
Know me this way
Touch me this way
Love me this way
Find me this way
I canât go home
Iâm saying
I donât want to call him
I donât want to know him
I donât want to need him
I donât want to feel it
I donât want to know
But I know, know know
Hey, home
So I say tomorrow
Tomorrow (repeat)
Iâm going home
Tomorrow ainât coming
Tomorrow will always where it was
Tomorrow (repeat)
I need to go home
Maybe I could start all over at home
Without the whispers
Without the whispers
Without the whispers
Hanging on me
Pulling on me, rolling with me
Pulling on me
Yes, Iâd like to go home
Without the whispers
