I read the news today oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure
If he was from the House of Lords
I saw a film today oh boy
The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look
Having read the book
I'd love to turn you on
Woke up, fell out of bed
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream
I read the news today oh boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall
I'd love to turn you on
(Ray Tyson)
Postal border was makin' me mad
So I get up in my cruiser, broke out of the pad
Rolled to the West Side to check out my boys
Twenty brothers in the park, all bringin' the noise
Stepped out the car, Levi's saggin'
Gold around my neck with my limb-walk laggin'
Walked up on my boys with the old E chillin'
The box with the big beats and my boys started illin'
A hoop game started so I jump in
Had the hoods' toughest team so I just had to win
Diz to the outside, 2Pac up the center
A ten minute game and we were the winners
The boys started smackin', talkin' that slack and
till he see my posse and the suckers started backin'
Tried to say we cheat, because he got beat
Another lightweight sucker that can handle defeat
People wonder why I choose to live the hype
It's not to understand, it's just a day in the life
Kick it - it's just a day in the life
(2Pac)
Finally I'm on vacation and school is through
So here I am, on Monday mornin' with nothin' to do
Tried to get outta my bed, but I can't move
Ya see I'm stuck to my matress like crazy glue
So there I lay, for half the day just thinkin'
Got up to brush my teeth cause my breath started stinkin'
But I was all alone so it wasn't no thing
Got up to take a shower and heard the phone ring
Picked it up, the salutations, little bit frustrations
Who could be disturbin' me on my vacation?
Speakin' on the phone in an aggravatin' tone
Now I know what Michael meant by leave me alone
So I'm askin' who is it? and the answer shocks me
It was the voice of my homeboy Roc-T
Him and Dizzy had been waitin' for me
Had a show at three and now I'm late as can be
Said I have to take a shower, I'll go ahead and take it
If I leave within the hour, I still might make it
I'm rollin' in a sweatsuit, wasn't tryin' to get cute
Hopped on to the stage and said: "Sorry that I kept you"
I started rappin', girls started clappin'
Couldn't wait to finish so I could start mackin'
Jumped off stage, picked up the girl for the night
Huh, that's how I'm livin', a day in the life, come on
A day in the life
(Ray Tyson)
Stretch white limo hits the colessium
A crowd full of people sayin: "I can't wait to see him"
Who is in the limo, who are they talkin' about?
Strictly Dope in the house, hear to turn the party out
We get out the car and can barely stand
Cause everywhere I look are screamin'

Who is in the limo, who are they talkin' about?
Strictly Dope in the house, hear to turn the party out
We get out the car and can barely stand
Cause everywhere I look are screamin' fans
Girls on my tip but I really don't sweat 'em
They'll tear my new clothes if your bodygurad'll let 'em
Hit backstage with two minutes to spare
Just enough time to grip a breath of fresh air
We hear the introduction, the audience is loud
I stepped out on the stage and then I moved the crowd
Winners all over, we tried to leave the scene
but there's a whole crowd of people at the limousine
Pen and paper in my face, I couldn't be mean
So I was signin' autographs at the age of seventeen
People wonder why I choose to live the hype
It's not hard to understand, it's just a day in the life
Kick it - it's a day in the life
Kick it, kick it, kick it
(2Pac)
Coolin' with my posse at the neighborhood disco
Talkin' to a cutie as I'm sippin' on my cisco
Askin' me to dance but I keep on sayin' "No"
Hate to dance fast, I only like to do it slow
Dizzy's on the dance floor, funky, funky motion
Girl keeps on sweatin' me with sexual kind of totions
Roc is signin' autographs makin' girlies dizzy
Crowd sweatin' Strictly Dope cause we're gettin' busy
Suckers wanna battle us, we move in silence
Strictly Dope is positive, we're tryin' to stop the violence
Started feel tipsy, I'm lookin' for the door
The Cisco had me dizzy, I stumbled to the floor
And more I try to sit up, the less I seem to get up
My stomach starts to turn and my head feels wit' up
The room begins to spin, I pass out for the night
Just another way of livin' a day in the life, kick it
(Ray Tyson & 2Pac)
Knew I was a genius, soon as you seen this
Avoid hoe's value, don't have to redeem this
Teenage terror, no room for error
A girl start dissin', and I SCARE HER!!
Risin' like inflation on your favorite station
Rap is my forte and my recreation
Girls wanna kiss me, suckers wanna diss me
My mother didn't want me to be, but I'ma emcee
The ladies desire, emcees admire
That's why many hate me and call me liar
Hoods of the hype-tip, girls on the ill-trip
I'm through rockin' this whack, so that's it
I am the high type, my style is so right
Words and music by lennon & mccartney
I read the news today oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
He blew is mind out in car
He didn’t notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They’d seen his face before
Nobody was really sure
If he was from the house of lords
I saw a film today oh boy,
The english army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look
Having read the book
I’d love to turn you on
Woke up, fell out of bed
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream
I read the news today oh boy
Four-thousand holes in blackburn, lancashire
And though the holes were rather small they had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the albert hall
I’d love to turn you on
I read the news today, oh, boy
About a lucky man who's made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well, I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights have changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords
I saw a film today, oh, boy
The English army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look
Having read the book
I'd love to turn you on
Woke up, fell out of bad
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up, I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream
I saw the news today, oh, boy
Four-thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall
I'd love to turn you on
Did you feel small today when everyone had gone
'Cause I was beaten up and jaded by the news
And underneath the skin the truth is breaking through
So they just sewed me up and spit me out
And I can't change it
I can't change this
You you take away the world
And I don't even know myself now
So how can I know you
And I don't want to die
And I don't want to leave this place yet
Just give me one more try
My thoughts are floating as reality explodes
I'm whispering to each of you my friends
And every moment seems to freeze frame through the room
All the colors are electrified
But I can't see now
I can't see now
You you take away the world
And I don't even know myself now
So how can I know you
And I don't want to die
And I don't want to leave this place yet
Just give me one more try
And I'm drifting through myself again
Tell me how I got so high
Where the conscience bends the air is thin
And I can't change it
I can't change this
You you take away the world
And I don't even know myself now
So how can I know you
And I don't want to die
And I don't want to leave this place yet
Just give me one more try
And I don't want to die
And I don't want to leave this place yet
Just give me one more try
One more try, yeah
Just give me one more try
One more try, yeah
CHORUS:
I just wanna do something real to you
Like a real brother is supposed to do
Just tell me how you feel baby
I'll give you something real baby
(repeat)
VERSE 1:
Let's not pretend, I promise if we keep it real
Girl you will discover I'll give you pleasure like no other
It's very spiritual but also physical
Mere words can't tell, you'll have to feel it for yourself
(Come on, come on)
Because it's here, right here my dear
Something that makes you smile again
Something that takes all night and then
I'm going to be the one that's still here, right here my dear
The physical's only part of it
Give me a chance to show you a deeper love
Give you something real
CHORUS
VERSE 2:
Let me make this clear, I've been doing this for years
Now I understand what a woman needs from her man
Spending money on my baby, take a trip downtown and daily
I'ma drive you like Miss Daisy, ain't no nigga that can fade me
Baby I'm here, right here my dear
You don't even have to say a word
Your body is calling and I heard
I just wanna make sure baby I'm clear, I'm clear
We'll take it slow so you can feel
Every bit of all that I got to give
And it's all for real
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Let me come inside tonight
I'll take you places only we two can find
I just wanna give you something you can feel
Because I know there's no one better
I'm just keeping it real
CHORUS
(Oh,Oh,Oh,Oh)
Today is,
So boring, I might aswell be snoring,
Because I'm living a bad dream,
Cause I'll be, With no react,
Somewho i've run right off track,
So insane, of the mundane,
It makes me wanna scream,
It's a day in life, it'a a link in tha chain,
Beginning the end, they both look the same, round and round,
No new ground, it's a day life, and were down to the game,
Winning or losing, there nothing to gane, round and round,
No new ground,
It's the day in the life,
It's just so, simplistic,
Trying to be optimistic,
That part of me won't give up hope,
Well it my own,
Disfuction,
That always leads to nothing,
But it seems,
It's the only way,
The only way to go,
Cause nothing ever changes anymore,
It makes me wonder what tomorrow for,
I read the news today oh, boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well, I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure
if he was from the House of Lords
I saw a film today oh, boy
The English army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look
Having read the book
I'd love to turn you on.
Woke up, got out of bed
dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
and looking up, I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream
I read the news today oh, boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes
it takes to fill the Albert Hall
where i come from stealing's like giving
make a robin hood living eight days out
of the week at the fat lace pace i race the
ease back disorderly conduct in a
catatonic state of relax in the brass
knuckle turnbuckle i drink the daydream
up all night on a cloud getting even louder
than before what about it what can you
do closed for the weekend speak before
i drink and drink before i speak
developments arrested by speech and no
action noise complaints from the
neighbors next door might as well lay off
the bell cause i won't turn it down closed
for the weekend saturday and sunday too
a two-day wait with a one-room view on
the freeze for a stunt turn on the green
when monday comes
Aiyo, slippery slurp slip, nigga, chirped off, two sniffs of cocaine
This motherfucker broke the glass in my whip
Try'nna dip on this twenty dollar bill, I had on my dashboard
And police is asking me, son, why I whip his ass for
Save y'all two hours of paperwork, my neighbor lurk
Watchdog, chew ass out, son and put in major work
We collect antique ammunitions and plus
We got them big guns, you only see in science fictions
My Uncle Cuffie's the chief but my little knucklehead
Cousin Mar', yeah, son, is a thief
And we gave him a job, making three hundred a week
But he slipped on my piece, now he's back in the streets
How many times have you let your tongue go slip
From the grin in your teeth and the cracks of your lips
I never heard such nerve before
But you better spill slowly through the cracks of my pores
Just to please you, honey, just to please you, honey
And how many times have you let your tongue go slip
From the grin in your teeth and the cracks of your lips
A.G. is King like Tutankhamen or Haile Selassie
Body the party, watchin' for niggaz tryin' to Pac me
Or Biggie Smalls me, come on please
With these gemstars, I'm Jason Vorhees
A's loose, so much pain inflicted, remain addicted
Carry microphones with the Passion of Je-sus
It's Flamboyant for life, nigga, throw those L's up
Ain't millionaires by this year then catch us in 12 months
Now who's fuckin' with Andre?
A beast on the east side, love on the west, ask Kanye
Still diggin' motherfucker, it's that plain and simple
G.D. till my heart beat discontinue
On the ave. till every soul in the ghetto is gone
Where niggaz sell more rock than heavy metal songs
Anything you want to know then read E2K
Fuck with A and get broke up like B2K, 'cuz
How many times have you let your tongue go slip
From the grin in your teeth and the cracks of your lips
I never heard such nerve before
But you better spill slowly through the cracks of my pores
Just to please you, honey, oh, just to please you, honey
And how many times have you let your tongue go slip
From the grin in your teeth and the cracks of your lips
'Cuz I'm the piece, the magnetic, I'm not the weak and pathetic
Sometimes inside my rhymes, you hear words that perfected
Master Hung Gar, five animal form Kung Fu
Thunder the Barbarian sword being swung
Wu-Tang, invincible blade, thrust to parry
Up the temple steps, much water got carried
In this industrious world, meet the illustrious
Uncombustible, give props like Doctor Huxtable
Knew many men, only trust a few
Women love the few, mention Wu-Wear linen, rugged blue
God-U's, I tuck a few, known to smash out a club or two
And represent the worldwide W
How many times have you let your tongue go slip
From the grin in your teeth and the cracks of your lips
I never heard such nerve before
But you better spill slowly through the cracks of my pores
Just to please you, honey, oh, that's to please you, honey
And how many times have you let your tongue go slip
From the grin in your teeth and the cracks of your lips
Oh, oh, your veins may call in sweat for blood
Your veins may call in sweat for blood
Your veins may call in sweat for blood
Everyday its always the same
No point in fighting, its not going to change.
I'm trying to find my place in this world but i dont get it.
I go through the motions over and over.
sick of life, sick of talk, sick of you.
I go through the motions every fucking day.
Should I just step back and let others path my way?
I walk in step with all the others, predictable is how I feel.
Everyday seems like just another, months they now turn to years.
Tims are changing and I think where to turn next.
I missed the point somewhere along the line.
Now back is my best bet.
You cant make it work with your foot in your mouth.
And you cant make this work cause its so hard to stick out.
I'm sick of hearing what you think of every single thing that comes out of my mouth.
You know where you can take your words?
Away from me. I want to be a part.
I know its nothing new.
I want this fucking charade over.
Lifes a bitch, suck it up.
V1) So easy to hide inside yourself when outside seems like a film that you have seen.
So real yet far from realised, the twisted metal flies.
B) It’s all in hindsight anyway, if you stopped you’d learn…
C) About this day, day.
Sing a song for me, cos I’ve never gone away.
About this day, day.
Sing a song for me cos I’ve never gone away and I wonder how your conscience could be.
V2) Not long until all is over run so many friends torn away from pain.
Just one more push and I’ll gladly go it’s what my world contains.
Up in the morning I bust a spliff
I roll it up and I take a whiff
Go downstairs and I have an egg
Go downtown and start today
I've got four bucks and I buy a six
Pick up girls they're real nice chicks
Feel real tired I take the train
Back to Queens I run it home again
Yeah that's right
You can tell by the way this song is
(Sugar plum fairy)
I read the news today oh boy
about a lucky man who made the grade
and though the news was rather sad
well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in a car
he hadn't noticed that the lights had changed to a shade of gray
A crowd of people stood and stared
they'd seen his face before
nobody was really sure if he was from the House Of Lords
I saw a film today oh boy
the US army had just dropped some peace on the Middle East
a crowd of people turned away
but I just had to look
having read the book
I'd love to turn you on...
Woke up, got out of bed
wiped the blood off of my head
found my way upstairs and I did a shot
and looking up I noticed I was late
found my coat, grabbed my hat
I made the bus in seconds flat
I found my way upstairs and I did a snort
and somebody spoke and I went into a dream
I read the news today oh boy
three thousand holes at New York's ground zero
and though the holes were rather small
we had to count them all
now we know how many holes it takes to make the towers fall
Ohoh ohoh ooooohhhhh
Ohoh ohoh
Today is so boring
I might as well be snoring
Because I'm living up that dream
A zombie with no react
Somehow I've run right up track
So insane from club mundane
It makes me wanna scream…
CHORUS
It's a day in the life
It's a link in the chain
Beginning the ending
They both look the same
Round and round
No new ground
It's a day in the life
A redundant game
Winning or losing
There's nothing to gain
Round and round
No new ground
It's a day in the life
It's just so simplistic
Trying to be optimistic
The part of me won't give up hope
Well it's my own dysfunction
That always leads to nothin
But it seems it's the only way
The only way to go…
CHORUS
Cause nothing ever
Changes any more
It makes me wonder
What tomorrow's for
CHORUS
Ohoh ohoh ooooohhhhh
Ohoh ohoh ooooohhhhh
Ohoh ohoh ooooohhhhh
Ohoh ohoh

Maybe her eyes will shine tonight
maybe she'll dress up and look as good as ever
I wish I lit the match that burns in your eyes
I wish I sparked the fire that warms your heart
actually I didn't do anything, I wasted your time
then when she said just go away forever
I don't want to see your face again
maybe I'll just close my eyes and dream
I'll wish myself so far from her
maybe I'll try to start my life over
I'll probably just sleep it off instead
actually I didn't do anything at all
wasting your time I just wasted all your time
Focus on nothing, only your face.
Follow me closely, into the night.
Just for one last time, turn out the light.
And if you wake up turn out the lights.
Oh no-not again.
My eyes are heavy again.
Please not tonight.
Black and blue, overtime
Lets see how far I can drift tonight.
Kissing you everyday
we'll never go this way again.
Just wake me when it's over
Just wake me when it's over
I'm not afraid to go afar with you.
The way the lights upon my arms and face
The ways the nights are made of me and you.
These nights are black and blue
These nights (THESE NIGHTS)
These nights are black and blue
Whoa
Just wake me when it's over
Just wake me when it's over
I'm not afraid to go afar with you
The way the lights upon my arms and face
The ways the nights are made of me and you.
Oh no-not again
Oh no-not again.
My eyes are heavy again.
Just stay the night
And well see that things can work out
And this will last forever
How long can we wait for things to change
And this will last forever
Every day, this I say
Turn to dust and fade away
This will last forever
Every day, this I say
Turn to dust and fade away
This will last forever
Still waiting for tomorrow
Just wait for today
To close my eyes
Waiting for tomorrow
Just wait for today
To say goodbye
She never said she loved me
She never said goodbye [x4]
Just stay the night
And well see that things can work out
And this will last forever
How long can we wait for things to change
And this will last forever
Every day, this I say
Turn to dust and fade away
This will last forever
Every day, this I say
Turn to dust and fade away
This will last forever
Still waiting for tomorrow
Just wait for today
To close my eyes
Waiting for tomorrow
Just wait for today
I read the news today oh boy I'll omit them from now on)

I heard the news today oh boy / Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small / They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall
I remember the time
all through the night
trying not to close my eyes again
Too many hours
in a stolen car
trying not to pull over and cry
My eyes so red
I just want to die
Kill me with your words
Kill me one last time
Cut out my heart
and throw it on the floor,
for everyone to see
Remember you said,
'Kiss me sweetheart,
before you go again.'
Don't say
'It's over this time.'
She's bleeding on the inside
for me to call again
Waiting for her just to say goodbye
just one last time
Bleeding on the inside
Am I supposed to say
anything at all
to make you want me back
If I had three wishes
I'd wish them all on you
I'd wish you away
from me
Am I supposed to say
anything at all
She's bleeding on the inside
for me to call on again
My dreams never lasted long enough to feel alright
maybe tomorrow I wont wake up again
shake me so I can tell you I'm still breathing but I'm lost
I haven't given up just yet...
your eyes blind me...
never again will I see you the way I did last September, every night
never again will I see you the way I did last September, every night
I cross my heart and hope to die take your picture from my mind and maybe this will be over.
I cross my heart and hope to die take your picture from my mind and maybe this will be over.
chew up the pieces of my heart
now I am right back where I started from.
I tried again, yeah I tried and I failed....
break me up again...
I think I wish I hope I try to make it just one more night without you, without you...
I think I wish I hope I try to make it just one more night without you, without you...
I cross my heart and hope to die and stick a needle in my eye
Let's just hope, we can make it out alive
Nothing hurts worse than knowing
Be anywhere, with anyone again
Nothing hurts worse than knowing
It hurts so bad inside
to know that your gone
maybe I'll take your picture
to make this last longer
It hurts so bad inside
to know that your gone
maybe I'll take your picture
It hurts so bad inside
without you
you make me feel this way
without you
Let's just hope, we can make it out alive
Nothing hurts worse than knowing
Be anywhere, with anyone again
Nothing hurts worse than knowing
and if we try, to make it out alive
nothing hurts worse than knowing
let's just try, to make it out alive
nothing hurts worse than knowing
and if we try, to make it out alive
nothing hurts worse than knowing
Let's just hope, we can make it out alive
Nothing hurts worse than knowing
Be anywhere, with anyone again
Nothing hurts worse than knowing
let's just hope
let's just hope
let's just hope
Let's just hope
the skylines won't seem the same
cause i know, you wont be here
the last thing that you said
was wait for me.
wait for this, wait for me
whoever said you can't live forever
(whoever said you can't live forever)
when it's so easy to fade away
whoever said you can't live forever
(whoever said you can't live forever)
when it's so easy to fade away (away)
just believe it's you and me..waiting
just believe it's you and me
and im not there, and you're not here
(waiting)
can you see the skylines end?
lets make hearts into the sand.
(i promise, i promise)
can you see the skylines end?
lets make hearts into the sand
(i promise, i promise)
whoever said you can't live forever
(whoever said you can't live forever)
when it's so easy to fade away
whoever said you cant live forever
(whoever said you can't live forever)
when it's so easy to fade away (away)
just believe it's you and me..waiting
just believe it's you and me
and im not there, and you're not here
(waiting)
can you see the skylines end?
lets make hearts into the sand
(i promise, i promise)
can you see the skylines end?
lets make hearts into the sand
(i promise, i promise)
can you see the skylines end?
lets make hearts into the sand
If my heart was broken
could you sew it back together with your eyes
stitch back up the pieces
give me one more reason to say goodbye
Don't forget ill try to write
and yes ill try every night
close your eyes
kiss me one last time, its over
never say good bye
kiss me one last time, its over
Its eight in the morning and the phone is ringing
its over
turn your back and walk away
I know its hard but its okay
And if tomorrow should be the last day I could ever tell you
I was in love with your smile, In love with your eyes.
Tomorrow will be a-okay, just to say I loved you way too much.
I should have said anything instead of making no sense at all...
Why was I chasing falling stars instead of you?
Why was I breaking my own heart instead of embracing yours?
Tomorrow will be a-okay, just to say I loved you way too much.
I should have said anything instead of making no sense at all...
Anything
Everything is broken, put it back together.
Everything just falls apart
Everything is broken... Yeah Everything, Everything.
Why was I chasing falling stars instead of you?
Why was I breaking my own heart instead of embracing yours?
Just remember, to save me one last dance.
And please try to close your eyes.
Just remember, to save me one last dance.
When you see her, please tell her
That I still care, care about her
And if she sees me, She'll tell me
That she should have, just killed me
Let's try this one more time
And get it right
Let's try this one more time
And get it right
My pictures torn in half
And facing down
My head is all shook up
And spinning around
When you see her, please tell her
That I still care, care about her
Let's try this one more time
And get it right
Let's try this one more time
And get it right
Broken wings and broken dreams
Are too played
Maybe I'll cut my hair
And stab you in the back
Lets try this one more time
And we can work it out
Lets try this one more time
So we can work it out
Lets try this, Just one last time
And get it right
Lets try this, Just one last time
And get it right
Lets try this, Just one last time
When you see her, please tell her
That I still care, care about her
If she sees me, She'll tell me
That she should have, just killed me
Did you see her?
Did you tell her, that I still care?
Care about her
I know she told me, I know she told me
It feels like I'm falling down
I turn around and you're not there
why was everything so shallow and low
why was I so...
never again
take two steps back and close my eyes
I said I would never make it without you
but I still tried
I held my breath just like I was holding your hand
but you weren't holding my heart
I don't wanna see you again
that's what she said as she waved goodbye
Audrey will live alone in Sacramento way beyond the coast
that's when she said something that shook my heart
we are leaving and never looking back
and I knew I would never see you again
it seemed so long ago that I was able to breathe
I want nothing more than for you to breathe
one last breath
kiss me softly and please try not to steal my breath
its not sweet enough for you
but you can reach down my throat and steal my heart
so yours can beat again
I'd surely sell my heart for an hour with you
[Lord Jamar]
Aw yeah, back to basics, kicking shit in Asics, it's like this
It's just a day in the life (of three black men) [x3]
Day one...
I wake up to the sun in the morning after justice hour
Refinement is in order so I bust this shower
Get dressed, but first my mind gets blessed
Not words, but best cess compressed in a philly
Silly of me, to think that I
Could ever have a morning where the phone didn't ring, I am sir
A sweet young thing, once a romancer
I didn't really fancy her, so build equality
I get a beep downstairs from Y.Z.O.
Knowledge in his head, beats pump the red Geo
Tracker, and in it, we get much blacker
Ride around town running down crackers
Last Sunday of the month so to Harlem we went
Not clubbing, the parliaments of Harriet Tubman
Peace to the Gods, peace to the earths
Peace to the seeds, peace to the birth
Of the nation of the 5%
That's it, I tell the gent brothers to represent
We left the rally now we're maxing uptown
8th Ave, 25th, 45th, and the Polo Grounds
And when it's time to refuel
Lord Jamar jump in the car, say "Back to the Rule"
It's like that y'all, you know it's as sharp as a knife
It's just a day in the life, it's just a day in the life
[Diamond]
It's just a day in the life (of three black men) [x3]
Day two, yo check this out
Every day when I wake up, phone calls seem to take up
My time, but I don't mind because it's fine
I don't get heated even though I can't sleep
Jump in the shower, then I brush the teeth
Hit the stereo in an instant
Then I twist up a bud, light an insync
Call up a honey if I'm not feeling sunny
Or call up my boys when I want to make noise
The brother Lord Jamar, the brother Derek X
Ahem, oh I forgot, I meant "Sadat"
X and I flex when I'm writing a rhyme
I got thousands in the bank but I never did a crime
Afternoons I go shopping, but I don't lift
Back in '84 I used to wear K-Swiss
Catch me in Yonkers in the mall buying gear
Take in a movie and sit in the rear
I might be in the studio hard at work
Making hype tracks that sell by the stacks
When it gets dark, I chill with my cutie
We almost broke up because she started acting snooty
When I'm with the fellas, I hit the clubs
The building, Red Zone, always see a head flown
But I walk away from the bullshit
And you don't stop, and you don't quit
[Sadat X]
It's just a day in the life (of three black men) [x3]
Day three...
I wake up after 8, a shower, then I take a shower
See a tip from last night still left in the tray
Some stick of boom music cause I found a fat L
Nine times out of ten I used to start this way
Then I study jewels and gems instead of Christianity hymns
Then walk past him to see my man Marco Polo who works in sports stuff
Your two shirts that's tough, a baldie that's rough
Call up the Gods, slide to three main places
We know a lot of faces so the romp game came work
Do you think that I'm a jerk because on my face there's a smirk?
Used to party to party rock from body to body
But my nightly smokes are spent on the cool down low
Rolling up dough and doing mad shows
Not dealing with hoes because AIDS is a bitch
In the nightime I get rich because kids pump the tape
Uptown Bronx from the porch to the fire escape, and you don't stop
So to my prehistoric days and dinosaur phase
I was completely energized using Islamic rays
I'm the royal highness, so clear your sinus
Put your trust in the plus and conceal the minus
Your head's unravelling, my force is of a javelin
Your tounge is in a knot and you're babbling on
To the pre test is the God human?
Come from the darkness to where I'm looming
The hardest working man, ever I see a land
Livin?in the city
Tryin?to make it through the day
There’s only one way up but you feel down
Make a firm connection
Look upon the bright side of life
Face the world with an optomistic smile
Because a day in the life is only what you make it
A day in the life is only what you give
You made tonight so why the hesitatin?A day in the life is just a laugh away, today
When you make decisions never deal with a negative mind
You will take forever to decide
Go your own direction
Put yourself at the top of the line
Leave your tribulations far behind
Because a day in the life is only what you make it
A day in the life is only what you give
You made tonight so why the hesitatin?A day in the life is just a laugh away
Today you’ve confidence inside
You’re glad to be alive, oooh
Open up your mind, open up your eyes, Why?
Because a day in the life is only what you make it
A day in the life is only what you give
You made tonight so why the hesitatin?A day in the life is just a laugh away
A day in the life is only what you make it
A day in the life is only what you give
You made tonight so why the hesitatin?A day in the life is just a laugh away, today
A day in the life
A day in the life
A day in the life
A day in the life
A day in the life
A day in the life
(Gary Nicholson/Craig Wiseman)
I'm up and out the door before the sun comes up
Spillin' coffee, banging gears in my pickup truck
Racing every red light, getting to the jobsite
Bossman hollerin', boys you're burnin' daylight
Sweatin' through a hard hat lunch in a brown sack
Swing a hammer all day tryin' to get the bills paid
Oh Oh, just a working man makin' his way
Oh Oh, but you'll never hear me complain
There's a whole lot to it but I gotta get through it
So I'll do it til i get it done
Just a day in the life of an 8 to 5, get it right
Nail drivin' law abidin' hard workin' son of a gun
Yeah when 5 o'clock come I'm burnin' up the road
Haul it home shower down slick it up gotta go
There's a roadside dancehall just about nightfall
That's the place to be y'all women waitin' wall to wall
Wearin' out the two step maybe learn a new step
Crawlin' home by daylight get back to the jobsite
Oh Oh, just a working man makin' his way
Oh Oh, but you'll never hear me complain
There's a whole lot to it but I gotta get through it
So I'll do it til i get it done
Just a day in the life of a dance floor dynamo
Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right nail drivin'
Law abidin' good timin' hard workin
Easy lovin' son of a gun
Oh Oh, just a working man makin' his way
Oh Oh, but you'll never hear me complain
I know I'm burnin' both ends again and again
But a man's gotta have his fun
Another day in the life of a dance floor dynamo
Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right nail drivin'
Law abidin' good timin' hard workin
Easy lovin' son of a gun
Another day in the life of a dance floor dynamo
Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right nail drivin'
Law abidin' good timin' hard workin
