About this song (Last.fm)
Dedicated to Lisa Left Eye Lopes. 2Pac suspects that something to her happened to her eye, because the sunglasses she’s wearing are hiding them The man she is in a relationship with appears to be oblivious to the fact that the physical and/or emotional abuse is only making it hard for the woman he loves, causing her to feel stressed and unhappy in his presence. When Pac hears the girl’s voice in the introduction of the song, he sees that she’s not truly happy with the guy she’s currently with… Read more on Last.fm.

It's 2Pac, can you get away? Let me come swoop you up (You know I got a man) I know you got a man, but he ain't gon' mind if I take you out (Of course he gon' mind) Let me take you to lunch, I'll have you back before he even get home, before anybody see (I can't, he ain't gon' let me) Aww c'mon, please (Nah) Oh, aight What's wrong with your eye, why you got on glasses? [Verse 1: 2Pac] Ever since I met ya I could peep the pressure It's like your man don't understand, all he does is stress ya I can see your state of misery from the introduction Ain't 'bout no suckin' and touchin', just harmless discussion Maybe we can see a better way, find a brighter day Late night phone conversations – would that be okay? I don't wanna take up all your time, be the next in line Tell me your size, let me find you things with you in mind I can see you're cautious and I'm careful not to scare you The anticipation of love makin' got you shakin' when I'm standin' near you News of precision will prepare ya In case you get scared, just ask the man in the mirror Now the picture's gettin' clearer, all he does is hit you hard I tell you to leave him, and you tell me keep my faith in God I don't understand, I just wanna bring ya home I wonder should I leave you alone And find a woman of my own All the homies tell me that you don't deserve it I contemplate – but in my heart I know you worth it Tell me, can you get away? [Break] Ebony, can you get away? C'mon, let's go, can you get away? Can you get away? [Chorus: Anya Pinto & (2Pac)] So much pressure in the air (I know, I know) And I can't get away (Just for a little while love) I'm not happy here (I know it's hard but, can you get away?) So much pressure in the air (Let's go man, get up outta there, can you get away?) And I can't get away (Do you love him?) I'm not happy here (Do you love that man?) [Verse 2: 2Pac] Could it be my destiny to be lonely? Ain't checkin' for these hoochies that be on me ‘cause they phony But you was different, I got no need to be suspicious ‘Cause I can tell, my life with you would be delicious The way you lick your lips and shake your hips got me addicted I'm sittin' here hopin' that we can find some way to kick it Even though I got your digits, gotta struggle to resist it Slowly advance when it's my chance not to miss it You blow me kisses when he ain't lookin' now your heart's tooken My only wish is that you change your mind and he get shook Wanna take you there but you scared to follow, come see tomorrow Hopin' I can take you through the pain and sorrow Let you know I care – that someone's there for your struggle Depend on me, when you have needs or there's trouble I wanna give you happiness and maybe even more I told you before, no time to waste, we can hook up at the store Can you get away? [Chorus: Anya Pinto & (2Pac)] So much pressure in the air (I know it is) And I can't get away (Yeah, you can) I'm not happy here (You ain't happy, huh? Can you get away?) So much pressure in the air (I know, is he beatin' on you?) And I can't get away (Did he punch you?) I'm not happy here (Throwin' you around the house?) [Verse 3: 2Pac] I sit here reminiscin' and I hope you listenin' In the position to pressure and offer competition Me and you was meant to be my destiny, no longer lonely ‘Cause now it's on for you and me, all I can see A happy home – that's my fantasy But my reality is problems with your man and me What can I do? Don't wanna lose you to this sucker ‘Cause if he touch ya, I got some drama for that busta Don't wanna rush ya, but make your mind up fast Nobody knows, on who controls will it last? Before I ask, I hope you see that I'm sincere And even if you stay with him today I'm still here I refuse to give up, ‘cause I believe in what we share You're livin' in prison and what he's givin' can't compare ‘Cause everything I feel for you I wanna let you know Passionately yours and I'll never let you go Tell me, can you get away? [Chorus: Anya Pinto & (2Pac)] So much pressure in the air (Can't get away why?) And I can't get away I'm not happy here (Let me take you away, all I wanna know, can you get away?) So much pressure in the air (Man) And I can't get away (Course you can get away) I'm not happy here (If you really wanted to get away, you could get away) [Outro: 2Pac] You ain't got to go through all this drama and this stress With this old half a man, ya know what I'm sayin'? I ain't tryin' to put you in a position where you gotta give up your lifestyle for everything you need But now he ain't even takin' care of you He beatin' on you and shit; look how you look! You too motherfuckin' raw to be with that nigga Ya know what I'm sayin'? Shake that sucker to the left Let me show you what this life is really about Ya know what I'm sayin'? You need to be on first class Need to be goin' to Hawaii, seein' the world Seein' what this world got to offer you Not goin' to, ya know what I'm sayin'? The emergency room, gettin' stitches ‘Cause this nigga done got jealous Don't cry, it's all good (Can you take me from here?) Shake that man, get away (Can you take me from here?) (I'm unhappy here) (And I need you to show me love) (Because it's so much pressure now, uh) (And I need to get away, hey, yeah)
