Chester P - Little Man lyrics

Oi little man that was really good, man
Feels like everything's just
Man's just trying to get by by
But life's difficult but

So little man take your little friend's hand
Push it high in the sky
Show the world that you free now
Little man, run come follow me now
Little man, run come follow me now
In the city where the summer is a grey cloud
In a breakdown
Hate drowned and it's fate bound
All we do is stay down on the same ground
In the gutter when the
World is our playground little man
Your world's bigger than a staircase
Bigger than the slums and
The whole wel-fare state
And, little man, don't wade in the crime wave
There's a world outside of the mindstate
And little man, don't think like time wait's:
Time takes, leaves you with a blind hate
And it's true, that life is a black hole
But there's more than the cats
And the crack hoes and there's more than the
Job and the mortgage
Car and the dog, wife and the four kids
There's a whole new ground to be walked on
Out of the bounds in the
Dark with the torch on
There's a world full of hate
That will crush you
There's a world full of life
Full of love too and, little man
All I know about the street thing
You're in the street
Ain't you that the street's in

Running free let me run beneath the sun
Let me be jungle child
Running wild running free
Let me run beneath the sun let me be
Jungle child running wild
Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya ya ya

This is for the children, man
We've got secure somethin'
For these children, man
It's like they're tomorrow's premonition
You understand?
It's like they are tomorrow, man
We have to stop ignoring their needs, man
Yesterday won't work today, you understand?

So little man take your little friend's hand
Raise it up in the sky
Show the world that you free now
Little man, run come follow me now
Little man, run come follow me now
In the city where there’s
Nothing but street life
Kids keep knives and they never see seaside
Some of them are knee-high in the street like
Bears in a bee-hive
None of them'll sleep tight little man
The world’s bigger than a few blocks
Bigger than the new creps
Bigger than a few shots
Little man, it’s a life full of hard times
But there’s more than the scars
And the car crime and you’re right
In the hood it ain’t all good
But in the world, little man
It ain’t all hood
I’m trying to tell you there’s a
Life you can live well and, little man
You’re right on the big scale
You’re never free
But the world is a big jail
As opposed to a 12 by 6 cell and little man
I know your mind stay shut down
For the money, nuttin’s funny
So you cut clowns
There’s a world full of hate
That will crush you
There’s a world full of life
Full of love too and little man
All I know about the street thing
You’re in the street
Ain’t you that the street's in

Running free let me run beneath the sun
Let me be jungle child
Running wild running free
Let me run beneath the sun let me be
Jungle child running wild
Running free let me run the river's run
Let me be jungle child
Running wild ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya

Yo, little man i'm talking to you, man
Let me just remind you
Don't take everything too serious, you know?
You can't always go with the grain
You can't always go against it
Everything's what it is, man
Love is the key to find
Yourself amongst this darkness, you know?
Ultimately, little man
The world is what you make it
Your mindstate is what controls things
And little man don't forget
You're my favourite little man out there
You know?
