[Verse 1: Choklate]
Feels like I’m in a padded room
Locked down, tied down, can't move
Stuck in big ol’ heavy shoes
Yearning a place my soul can groove
[Pre-Chorus: Choklate]
I know this is where I’m supposed to be
When good things keep coming to me
Money don’t make you rich
I had it, still live like this
[Hook: Choklate]
Out here in the world
Out here in the world
(Where the love is flowin')
Out here in the world
(Like an eagle soarin')
Out here in the world
[Verse 2: Choklate (Phonte)]
Felt like I might lose my mind
Same thing, day in, day out, rewind
Nothing worse than wasting time (Nothing worse than wasting time)
Imagine your freedom and if you seek, you’ll find
[Pre-Chorus: Choklate]
I know this is where I’m supposed to be
When good things keep coming to me
Money don’t make you rich
I had it, still live like this (Oooh-oooh)
All dressed up, let’s hit the town
Troubles on my mind won’t bring me down
Money don’t make you grow
If I had it, you’d never know
‘Cause I’d be
[Hook: Choklate]
Out here in the world
(That's where our heart belongs, yeah)
Out here in the world
(Where the love is free-flowin')
Out here in the world
(Like an eagle soarin')
Out here in the world
(Oooh, out here in the world)
Out here in the world
(Oooh, baby, out here in the world, yeah)
Out here in the world
(Ooh-ooh, I'll be, out here)
Out here in the world
Out here in the world
(Out here in the world)
[Verse 3: Phonte (Choklate)]
Got a letter from my baby bro
He hit me like "Yo, Tay it’s a problem
My crew got locked ‘bout a week ago
Now everybody singin' Les Miserables
I’m sorry that my daughter can’t see her father
Tell mama that I never meant to be a bother
Never meant to see her sorrow
And write me back ‘cause with the pen, you a Leonardo"
Been 2 and a half, call it 3 if you doin’ the math
It ain't like what we would do in the past
Yeah, life gets shorter but it don’t mean less to me
Heed these jewels or end up an accessory
Coming back to a city so filthy
Take ya time and smell the roses or the milkweeds
For you, I still bleed
And I’ma still be waitin' with open arms
In 8 months, we’ll be
(Out here)
Come on
[Hook: Choklate]
Out here in the world
Out here in the world
(I'll be, I'll be in the world, uhhh)
Out here in the world
(Uhhhhh-hey, baby, I'll be)
Out here in the world
(Oooh, out here in the world)
