by Bone Thugs N Harmony

Bone Bone Bone Bone Bone Bone Bone Bone Bone Bone

Now tell me whatcha gonna do when there ain't no where to run When judgment comes for you, when judgment comes for you Tell me whatcha gonna do when there ain't no where to hide When judgment comes for you 'coz it's gonna come for you Let's all bring it in for Wally, Eazy sees uncle CharlieLittle Boo, says God's got him and I'm gonna miss everybody I only roll with Bone my gang look to where they lay When playing with destiny, play too deep for me to sayLil' Layzie came to me, told me if he should decease well then pleaseBury me by my grand-grand and when you can, come follow me

God bless you, working on a plan to heaven Follow the Lord all 24/7 days, God is who we praise Even though the devil's all up in my face But he keeping me safe and in my place, say graceFor the case to race with a chance to face the judge And I guess my soul won't budge Grudge because there's no mercy for thugs Oh, what can I do it's all about our family and how we rollCan I get a witness? Let it unfoldWe living our lives to eternal our soul

Hey, and we pray and we pray and we pray and we prayEveryday, everyday, everyday, everydayAnd we pray and we pray and we pray and we prayStill we laced, now follow me roll strollWhether is tell of his heavenCome let's go take a visit of people that's long goneDarris, Wally, Eazy, Terry, Boo It's steadily creeping up on the family Exactly how many days we got lasting While you laughing we're passing, passing away

So y'all go rest y'all souls'Coz I know I'ma meet you up at the crossroad Y'all know y'all forever got love from them Bone Thugs, baby Now Eazy's long gone Really wish he would come home But when it's time to die Gotta go bye-bye All a thug could do is cry, cry Why they kill my dog and manI miss my uncle Charles y'all And he shoudn't be gone, in front of his home What they did to Boo was wrong Oh so wrong, oh so wrong Gotta hold on, gotta stay strong When the day comes Better believe bone got a shoulder you can lean on

Hey and we pray, and we pray, and we pray, and we prayEveryday, everyday, everyday, everyday And we pray, and we pray, and we pray, and we pray Everday, everyday, everyday, everyday

Chorus

See you at the crossroads, crossroads, crossroads So you won't be lonely (4x)And I'm gonna miss everybodyAnd I'm gonna miss everybody when I'm gone (3x)Living in a hateful world sending me straight to HeavenThat's how we roll (3x)

And I'm asking the good Lord "why?" and sighIt's I he told me we live to dieWhat's up with murder y'all, see my little cousin was hung Somebody was really wrong, everybody want to test us dawgThen Miss Sleazy set up Eazy to fall, you know why we sinningAnd Krayzie intended on ending it when it endsWanna come again, again and againNow tell me whatcha gonna doCan somebody anybody tell me why?

Hey, can somebody anybody tell me why we die, we die?I don't wanna dieOh so wrong, oh wrong Chorus

This song is an example of the crossroads because it talks about the way people deal with death; because the death of someone near and dear to us effects us deeply, and we are forced to make decisions as if we were at the crossroads.
