One Way or Another Lyrics
I looked back to all those years, phone calls shrouded in my mother's tears
Stolen cars and behind bars, and my left arm that is covered in scars
You came in and fed lies, heartless coward foreign spy
All you said with liar's tongue, no surprise you got no one
You burnt a bridge that will not mend, lose me a true friend
I was there when no one was, had your back out of love
And what'd you do, you traded sides, now I laugh as you die
Don't you see, don't you see, don't you see your treachery?
One way or another, get by on each other
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me
One way or another, get by on each other
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me
Don't bother me
Now the time, the time has come, it's the time for me my son
We will go and live our life, my wounded back it's from your knife
You dug it deep, not deep enough, this old soul is mighty tough
It's a heart that's made of steel, black and burnt but it will heal
No matter what I have my brothers, through rough times we have each other
Good and bad and black and blue, I got my boys I got my crew
They won't bail when times get tough, they'll stand by me no matter what
Don't you see, don't you see, don't you see your treachery?
One way or another, get by on each other
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me
One way or another, get by on each other
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me
Don't bother me
One way or another, get by on each other
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me
One way or another, get by on each other
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me
Stolen cars and behind bars, and my left arm that is covered in scars
You came in and fed lies, heartless coward foreign spy
All you said with liar's tongue, no surprise you got no one
You burnt a bridge that will not mend, lose me a true friend
I was there when no one was, had your back out of love
And what'd you do, you traded sides, now I laugh as you die
Don't you see, don't you see, don't you see your treachery?
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me
One way or another, get by on each other
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me
Don't bother me
We will go and live our life, my wounded back it's from your knife
You dug it deep, not deep enough, this old soul is mighty tough
It's a heart that's made of steel, black and burnt but it will heal
No matter what I have my brothers, through rough times we have each other
Good and bad and black and blue, I got my boys I got my crew
They won't bail when times get tough, they'll stand by me no matter what
Don't you see, don't you see, don't you see your treachery?
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me
One way or another, get by on each other
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me
Don't bother me
One way or another, get by on each other
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me
One way or another, get by on each other
Roadblocks and stops don't bother me

WOOOW! This song has so much meaning that none of us can even comprehend it all. The part that gets me the most is the second part after the chorus. He is talking about his boys and his crew. The one solid foundation a man ever has in his life. To me, it seems like this song was meant as the end of a friendship or relationship of some sort. "I was there, when no one was. I had your back, out of love." Does anyone see a connection?
