Fort Minor - Right Now (Feat. Black Thought Of The Roots And Styles Of Beyond)

Someone right now
is leaving their apartment
Looking down at the street
Wondering where there car went
Someone in the car sitting at a signal
In front of a restaraunt
Staring through the window
at someone Right now
with their finger in their teeth
Who could use a little floss
Right across the street
there's somebody on the curb
Who really needs a jacket
spent half the rent at a bar getting plastered
Now he gotta walk fourteen blocks to
work at a shop Where he's about to get fired
Someone right now is looking pretty tired
Staring at a laptop trying to get inspired
Somebody living right across the street
She wrote the best things
She's written all week but her
best friends coughing up blood in the sink
Can't even think what happened
feeling so confused
And he knows it looks bad
but there's nothing he can do
I wonder what it's like to be right
there in his shoes
But no I'm just taking it in
Out the window of a hotel bedroom again
Tommorrow I'll be gone
I don't know when I'll be back
But in this world everything can
change just like that, Like that
Yo somebody right now
is dropping his vote inside a box
And trying not to get shot in his throat
For the act of freedom right now
somebody is stuck in Iraq
Hoping that he gets shipped back breathing
in a war That he's not really
sure of the reasons
So we show our support
when the press mislead them
Though we more then remain proud
and salute the troops get some
I know you boys got some work to do
Meanwhile right now someones 25 to life
And is stading on the corner
with their thumb up hitchiking
Stratching off a lotto ticket
hoping for a real winner
Sneaking through the border just to
work and to eat a real dinner
Right now someone wishes
they were you were not instead of second
Guessing freedom thoughts of quiet suicide
But right now I'm staring at the window
at a frame with holes
In his arm and holes in his jeans
he pulled out his siger And sparked the light
And walked right around
the corner just outta my sight
But yo I'm just taking it in
From the second story hotel window again
The TV's on, and my bags are packed
But in this world everything
can change just like that, Like that
But yo I'm just taking it in
From the second story hotel window again
The TV's on, and my bags are packed
But in this world everything
can change just like that, Like that
Ya right now
somebody sitting in the darkness
Trying to figure out how to put some heat
in their apartment
But they got a little matress and a little carpet
And they appreciate
it 'cause some people on a park bench
You see them when you rushing to
get to the office wife robbed blind
When she coming from the market
Right now somebody coming
out from the pocket
Trying to dump that rock
They run around the block with at
The same time the cops
is raising the block with aim
To fill your legs and back with some hot shit
Right now
somebody struggling to stop this man
Who's kick and punching
and cussing at the doctors
Down the hall the child taking his first breath
The doctors ain't even passed
him to the nurse yet yo
I wonder if he understands what it's worth yet
Like the time spent while
we here on the earth yet
The answer to the question
that we all seek can be found
Depend on how free y'all think
Right now
it's somebody who ain't eat all week
That would kill for the shit
that you throw away in the street
I guess ones mans trash is
the next mans treaure
One mans pain is the next mans
pleasure one say
Infinity the next say forever
right now everybody
got to get it together man
I'm just taking it in another
strange hotel lobby again
Put my luggage on my back
I don't know where I'm at
I'm in world where we all change just like that
Like that, like that, just like that ...
