Prince
It Be’s Like That Sometimes (2020 Remaster)
[Intro]
Ohh, ohh, oh! (Oh!)
Talkin’ ‘bout a brighter day now
[Verse 1]
4 those of U, on the way out—
U might not have a place 2 go
But that ain't what it's all about
That someone that loves U—
Keeps yo life 2gether—
Could 1 day, disown U
Throw U out, if U watch the weather
[Hook]
But it be's like that, sometime— (sometime)
Be like that sometime—y'all
Oo-ooo—
Oo-ooo, oooh
(Play the end)
[Verse 2]
4 those of U, on U’re way down—
U were tryna lift up the groove
When they would call U ‘round
They label U a ratter
Now U’re on the run—
All they want, is what they know
U just wanna have fun—
4 those of U, on U’re way down
Be’s-like-that, sometime— (sometime)
(Be's like that ch’y'all—sometime)
Be's-like-that, sometime— (sometime)
(1st Bridge)
[Verse 3]
Hey, heyy, heyyy!
This is 4 those of U, on U’re way up— (huh)
Same muthafuckas that make U—
Break U, when U had enough
Quick as that
Stay a rebel, oh!
U owe us a brighter day
‘Cause on U’re way down, U can laugh now
‘Cause U did it yo way
U tell ‘em—
[Hook]
Be’s like that, sometime, y’all
Be like that, sometime—
(2nd Bridge)
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
It be like that—
Be like that—sometime—y’all
(When U made U’re way—U can sing)
Be like that—sometime!
Be like that—sometime!
