This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
In my hometown,
There is no street with my name, no crown
I am no king and the kids they don't know my name
It's like nothing has changed
Life takes you up and down
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it with you
In my hometown,
My friends are saying "What happened to you?"
"We thought you made it,
And you'd be driving Bentley's
And living the good life for us all"
My father says "When will you make it?"
My mother says "He'll learn to fake it"
But I'm not you and you're not me
But I'm as good as I can be baby
Life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it
And life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it with you
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see
Oh I know that this the good life
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see
I wanna live
And I say, I know I made it the good life
Open your eyes
Your friends, your lover, your soul, your mind
It's, it's right there baby
All the time it goes like
Life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it
And life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it with you
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see it baby
I know that this the good life
I wanna live the good life
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see it baby
Now I see it baby
I wanna live the good life
There is no street with my name, no crown
I am no king and the kids they don't know my name
It's like nothing has changed
Life takes you up and down
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it with you
In my hometown,
My friends are saying "What happened to you?"
"We thought you made it,
And you'd be driving Bentley's
And living the good life for us all"
My father says "When will you make it?"
My mother says "He'll learn to fake it"
But I'm not you and you're not me
But I'm as good as I can be baby
Life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it
And life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it with you
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see
Oh I know that this the good life
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see
I wanna live
And I say, I know I made it the good life
Open your eyes
Your friends, your lover, your soul, your mind
It's, it's right there baby
All the time it goes like
Life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it
And life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it with you
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see it baby
I know that this the good life
I wanna live the good life
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see it baby
Now I see it baby
I wanna live the good life

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
