Fort Minor - Right Now

Mike:
Someone right now / is leaving their apartment
Looking down at the street and wondering where their car went
Someone in a car is sitting at a signal
In front of a restaraunt / staring through the window at
Someone right now with their finger in their teeth
Who could use a little floss / right across the street there's
Somebody on the curb / who really needs a jacket
But spent half the rent at a bar getting plastered
Now he's gotta walk / fourteen blocks just to
Work at a shop where he's about to get fired
Someone right now / is looking pretty tired
Staring at a laptop / trying to get inspired as
Somebody / living right across the street
Just wrote the best thing that she's written all week
But her best friend is coughing up blood in the sink
He can't even think what happened / feeling so confused
And he knows it looks bad but there's nothing he can do
I wonder what it's like to be right there in his shoes
But

Yo I'm just taking it in
Out the window of a hotel bedroom again
Tommorrow I'll be gone / I don't know when I'll be back
But in this world everything can change just like that
Like that

Ryu:
Somebody right now is dropping his vote inside a box
And trying not to get shot in his throat for the act of freedom
Right now / somebody's stuck in Iraq
Hoping that he gets shipped back breathing
In a war but he's not really sure the reasons
So we show our support when the press mislead him
Though we mourn / remain proud / salute the troops
Get some / I know you boys got some work to do

Tak:
Meanwhile / right now someone's 25-to-life-ing
Standing on a corner with their thumb up hitchhiking
Stratching off a lotto ticket hoping for a real winner
Sneaking through the border just to work and eat a real dinner
Right now someone wishes they were you and I
Instead of second-guessing fatal thoughts of quiet suicide
But right now I'm staring out the window at a fiend
With holes in his arm and / holes in his jeans
He pulled out a ciggerette and sparked a light
And walked right around the corner just out of my sight
But

Yo I'm just taking it in
From a second story hotel window again
The TV's on and my bags are packed
But in this world everything can change just like that
Like that

Yo I'm just taking it in
From a second story hotel window again
The TV's on and my bags are packed
But in this world everything can change just like that
Like that

Black Thought:
Yeah / right now somebody's sitting in the darkness
Trying to figure how to put some heat in their apartment but
They got a little matress and / little carpet
And they appreciate it 'cause some people on a park bench
You see them when you rushing to get to the office
Wife ride by them when she coming from the market
Right now somebody coming out the pocket
Trying to dump that rock / they running round the block with
Same time the cops is raising the glock
With aim to fill your legs and back with some hot shit
Right now somebody's struggling to stop this man
That's kicking and punching and punching and cussing at the doctors
Down the hall the child taking it's first breath
The doctors ain't even passed him to the nurse yet / yo
I wonder if he understands what it's worth yet
Like / the time spent while we here on the earth yet
The answer to the question we all seek
Can be found / it depend on how free y'all think
Right now / it's somebody who ain't eat all week
That would kill / for the shit that you throw away in the street
I guess one man's trash is the next man's treaure
One man's pain is the next man's pleasure
One say infinity the next say forever
Right now / everybody got to / get it together man

I'm just taking it in another strange hotel lobby again
With my luggage on my back / I don't know where I'm at
I'm in world where it all change just like that

Yo I'm just taking it in
Out the window of a hotel bedroom again
Tommorrow I'll be gone / I don't know when I'll be back
But in this world everything can change just like that
Like that
