From the soundtrack Friends
For our world, the circle turns again
Throughout the year we've seen the seasons change
It's meant a lot to me to start anew
Oh the winter's cold but I'm so warm with you
Out there there's not a sound to be heard
And the seasons seem to sleep upon their words
As the waters freeze up with the summer's end
Oh it's funny how young lovers start as friends
Yes it's funny how young lovers start as friends
It's springtime
Leaves sprout and grass grows and birds start to sing
Walk in the park, take a ride on a swing
In springtime
Then comes summer
Sun is hot, grass is green, there is no school
Bathing suits, lemonade, swim to get cool
In summer
Then comes autumn
Red and gold leaves fall from trees every day
School starts and summer birds all fly away
In autumn
Then comes winter
Snowmen and snowballs, cold hands and cold nose
Bright frozen icicles, heavy warm clothes
In winter
Then comes springtime, then summer,
Then autumn, then winter,
And then it's springtime again
Well, I got a little girl down by the riverNow she keeps ? ? ? tightI got a little girl, she every nightShe says I’m feeling like a wild, hands on ? ? ? Then she keeps me all night.So come on, down by the riverCome on, come on now.Just come on, down by the riverIt’s alright.Well baby, let me protect you little darlingIf you let me ? ? ?

Yes, come on, down by the riverOh, come on, girl, it’s alright.Well, come on, down by the riverHold tight.
The seasons come and go but in my heart I know
Weather it's rain or snow our dreams hold back
The seasons drift on by like clouds across the sky
But we both realize that shadows pass
I would never change or try to rearange a thing about you dear
I'll love you just the way you are through all the coming years
The seasons play their part and each one leaves its mark
But I know in my heart our love will last

Seasons of....LOVE....
Like the seasons you change your mind
It seems like loving you is a crime.
I remember those days
Oh, so long ago
Like the first time I took you
To a picture show
Or the first time I kissed you
Beneath the moonlit sky
I put my hand on my heart
I thought I'd die
[Chorus]
Yes, you were for me
It was plain to see
I knew in my heart
You were the one for me
Though people used to try
To get us down
As time goes on
We're still around
[Chorus]
We had our share
Of ups and downs
We had our share
Of nights on the town
The days were short
But the nights were long
My love for you
It grew so strong
[Chorus]
But as we grew old
Your love turned cold
Gone are the days
Of glitter and gold
I work so hard
To keep you mine
Now all I have is
Nothing but time
First came the winter
And then came the morning
Bright coral branches that pass you again
Down from the meadow and onto the seashore
Came the vast checkerboard kingdom of men
Sun radiates gold infrarays
Time to prepare for the fall
Harvest the corn, watch for the storm
Soon we will hear winter call
Ice on the pond, won't stay too long
Too thin to walk it today
Ice on the pond, something went wrong
Frost must be lost on the way
Evening is falling
The tree is a silhouette
As seen by the teddy bear
Watching his den
Spring came so quickly
That I did not see her
Just turn around
And she's coming again
Wind chimes along, rising at dawn
Seasons in circles too match
Each comes along, singing his song
Sounds around me, thoughts before me call to you
Sky above me, water near me reflect you
Dreams of our oneness altered by time
Seasons will change for us all
For us all
Chorus I:
Springtime, summer, winter, fall
Springtime, summer, winter, fall with you
Magic grace bestows the place I long to be
Deep inside my heart is high, so come to me
Thinking and rethinking in moments of despair
Worries not needed will fade - with you
Always
Chorus I
Chorus II:
Springtime, summer, winter, fall ... seasons will change for us all
Springtime, summer, winter, fall ... seasons will change for us all
With you
Repeat Chorus II two times
[Verse 1 - Redman]
Bitch!
Brick City, yo
Yo, yo Funk Doc straight lunatic since young
At 8 paint chips the rare moon ----
That pair mics, my maintenance
I battle you and then me and Meth exchange shifts
For money, to your house arrest anklet
I take it all, if not, here's a thousand
Bricks, be shooting fair ones with bail bonds men
I'm constant, on that paper chase
Blow zip codes from bricks to 8-1-8
Doc serve to you to liquor in the plate
Battle royal, in the ring smoking like ought to owe ya
Fire thrown to the roof of you apartment
Hit 95 then I hide with the Waltons
Down South, the forty-four feela
I'm a Dolo nigga, you a Polo nigga
I'm an Uptown shopper, you a Soho nigga
Westside highway running, homo nigga
[Verse 2 - LL Cool J (Method Man)]
I'm the sultan of the ghetto
The homicidal aficionado
I empty niggas out like Cristal bottles, uh
When I battle, I'm breaking Bentleys down to gravel
I got the heat right here, we ain't got to travel
I'm bigger than producers, I figured out you losers
I knew my longevity confuse ya
Big paper game, come on run into these flames
Recognize the power of the royal King James
Phantom Menace, that's why niggas make faces like they drinking Guinness
When they realize I'm not finished
I've been paid, I've been platinum, been spittin', uh
Been eatin', been ballin' and you know I'm shittin'
Platinum links, chicky-eyed blonde hair, honeys sippin' rainbow colored
drinks
Black thugs with white minks, ready to jack the brink
Bend your little wifee over help her stretch out the kinks
That's why ya niggaz freeze when I step up in the building
The Godfather's here giving blessings to his children
Carrots shine, the world all mine
Can't believe these cats is poppin' shit about papers in their rhymes
Or bodies they collect, black Gotti shot a tech
Them gangsta visions will have you ass up in an ambulance
Cats ain't live, look up in my eyes
We can do this one more time, I'll let you decide
The Alizae swigger, I clock twelve figgas
Think Goulianni's rough I got some real shit for niggas
Never been defeated, niggas retreated
Made the choice to be seated until my mission's completed
Get loose, get loose, Method Man get loose
What the world gonna do when my dogs get loose?
(Blaze one) Blaze one (Blaze one) Blaze One
Blaze, blaze, blaze one
[Verse 3 - Method Man]
Now four corners, four seasons
Four MC's with four reasons to bring this game to its knees
And why you down there, suck my dick
My whole motto is fuck it
Hit the smoke shop and blow my budget
MC's abusing my bitch, using my shit
I'm hanging off the roof with one hand, losing my grip
Now y'all don't wanna see me do that, now do you?
Go straight cuckoo and terrorize rap, do you?
I do my best work stressed out and under pressure
Deep inside the mind is where you'll find my buried treasure
I'm still wild, still Tical
Still gritty style, foul, crimi-niminal, individual
Sing a song a six street
Pocket full of chits
Too many rappers be on John Gotti's dick
Now this is something that we don't rehearse
Put that rap shit second, and hip-hop first
[Verse 4 - Ja Rule]
Easy, ain't near niggas spitting like me
Nor Murderers motherfuckin' INC
Niggas will pass me, look me in the face, ask me
Are y'all really on the way or did somebody ask me
Ja the myth, ready hand me the fifth let me explain
Your lil' man made me give him a lift
So you ridin' with gangstas
I'm up to a whole lot of other shit
Murderers is the clique, niggas can't deal with
Try it (hataz) you gonna get yours to knife
Lesson tonight by the four-four
Niggas want more than a little bit, hot shit
Ja Rule with Hot Nix I'm the best at that shit
So bitches explain this
We ride dick so well, head game from hell
I love making them yell, my name
Rule baby, And ain't shit gon' change, uh, uh
[Outro - Redman and Method Man]
Yo Meth why don't you ask where all the ladies at?
Where all the ladies at?
All the ladies in the house with the real hair
The clean underwear and she don't need welfare, make some noise
Check this shit out
Summer, fall, winter, spring
Of the seasons I will sing
To help you through your birth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind
The summer song won't last long
When this warm old man has come
I'll sing your of your birth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind
And so it goes
As the wind blows
The seasons will flow
To help you through your birth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind A mother's child
A father's son
In this crowd, I'm only one
To tell you of your worth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind
And so it goes
As the wind blows
And so it goes
As the wind blows
Summer, fall, winter, spring
Of the seasons I will sing
To help you through your birth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind
The summer song won't last long
When this warm old man has come
I'll sing your of your birth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind
And so it goes
As the wind blows
The seasons will flow
To help you through your birth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind
A mother's child
A father's son
In this crowd, I'm only one
To tell you of your worth
As you spend your time on earth
In the wind
And so it goes
As the wind blows
And so it goes
Summer's gone, it could not stay
It ran it's path, it's yesterday
Like a moment's fire that lost it's burn
It faded fast and won't return
So I walk on and make my memories
And hope's not gone because I still believe
There's a reason for passing time
These are the seasons of my life
I've longed for spring in the winter's cold
I felt the sting of the unknown
My frozen heart held me bound
Until the time it turned around
So I walk on and make my memories
And hope's not gone because I still believe
There's a reason for passing time
These are the seasons of my life
There more I live the more it grows
No more than this is all I know
For time has run but I don't mind
For life's begun once more inside
So I walk on and make my memories
And hope's not gone because I still believe
There's a reason for passing time
These are the seasons of my life
There's a reason for passing time

How will I stand the summer
When spring was such a bummer?
How will I weather my winter
When my fall such a ball buster?
It's spring and there'll be no spring fling
When my winter was what a winner
And I am taking a fall
'Cause if I ain't got you I got nothin' at all
An' how will I stand the summer
When spring just made me dumber?
How will I fare my fall?
Will I lose my mind in the wintertime?
It's spring and I'm a spring ding a ling
It's summer and I'm just a little dumber
And I am taking a fall
'Cause if I ain't got you I got nothin' at all
Through the four seasons
I'm searchin' for reasons
I'm not gonna take the spring
'Cause the spring don't mean a thing
An' I'm not gonna take the winter
My winter is a splinter
I'm not gonna take the summer
Summer is such a bummer
But I am taking a fall
'Cause if I ain't got you I got nothin' at all
Through the four seasons
I'm searchin' for reasons
Vivaldi four seasons
It seems to me
To be a theme of love
With no variations of aggravations
How will I stand the summer
When my spring was such a bummer?
How will I fare my fall?
Will I lose my mind in the wintertime?
Spring an' I'm a spring ding a ling
Summer an' I'm a [Incomprehensible]
I am taking a fall
'Cause if I ain't got you I got nothin' at all
Through the four seasons
I'm searchin' for reasons
Spring, summer, winter and fall
Spring, summer, winter and fall
Spring, summer, winter and fall
If I ain't got you I got nothing at all
Spring, summer, winter and fall
Spring, summer, winter and fall
Spring, summer, winter and fall
(Ain't got you)
Spring, summer, winter and fall
(And I ain't got you)
Spring, summer, winter and fall
(Ain't got you)
Spring, summer, winter and fall
(I got nothin', ooo nothin')
Spring, summer, winter and fall
Spring, summer, winter and fall
Spring, summer, winter and fall
Written by chris cornell
Summer nights and long warm days
Are stolen as the old moon falls
My mirror shows another face
Another place to hide it all
Sleeping with a full moon blanket
Sand and feathers for my head
Dreams have never been my answer
Dreams have never been my bed
Now I wanna cry about the storm
But you can’t grow feathers in the rain
And this naked floor is cold as you
This naked floor remains
Chorus
And I’m lost, behind
The words I’ll never find
And I’m left behind
As seasons roll on by
Bridge
Would you crawl into my world
And take me worlds away
Should I be beside myself
I might even stay
Summer air reminds me of all the feelings of your love,
And what it was like when we were together,
Walking all along the beach, you were never far from my reach,
And you held me through the stormy weather,
And I want to fall in love tonight,
And I remember when you said "everything's gonna be alright"
Laying in the summer grass, you told me not to talk so fast,
As I told you how I feel,
You made me feel right at home,
You told me I was not alone and you knew just how I feel,
I know we talked about it, I just can't get around it,
I just want one more night with you,
October air reminds me of all the seasons of your love,
And what it was like when we were together
The smell of fall is everywhere and though it seems,
Let me take your coat
Let's sit down and talk
I already heard the news
Plus, your mama told me, too
I know it's complicated
Work got you all frustrated
(They laid you off)
But, don't trip you got me
And we'll get through it, baby
I'm in it for the long run
(Even if we' strugglin')
Every day (we gon' be hustlin')
Every day (we gon' be hustlin') together
I'm in it for the long run
(Even if we strugglin')
Every day (we gon' be hustlin')
Every day (we gon' be hustlin') together
[Chorus:]
Even though I know
Seasons will change
But, my love will stay the same
Put that on everything, oh yeah
'Cause if the world's fallin' apart
You still gon' have my heart
Put that everything
Nothin's gonna change
Oooh, said nothin's gonna change
Oooh, my love will never change
(Your rent is due)
Don't you worry, baby
Y'know I got you, baby
All you gotta do is stay strong
Yeah
I'ma hold you down
Never leave you
Baby, if it's mine
Then it's your's too
Whatever I gotta do
To get us through
The long run (Even if we strugglin')
Every day (we gon' be hustlin')
Every day (we gon' be hustlin') together
I'm in it for the long run
(Even if we strugglin')
Every day (we gon' be hustlin')
Every day (we gon' be hustlin') together
[Chorus:]
Even though I know
Seasons will change
But, my love will stay the same
Put that on everything, oh yeah
'Cause if the world's fallin' apart
You still gon' have my heart
Put that on everything
Nothin's gonna change
Oooh, said nothin's gonna change
Oooh, my love will never..
Some things will never fade away
Hearts on lock so throw the key away
Summer, Winter, Fall
And in the Spring
Ooh, my love will never change
(Oh no) Life could be unfair
(You know) That I'ma be the one there
(We gon') Love each other just the same
[Chorus:]
Seasons will change
Even though I know
Seasons will change, baby
Oh, but my love will stay the same
Put that on everything, oh yeah
'Cause if the world's fallin' apart
You still gon' have my heart
My love will never change
Ooh, my love will never change
Do you Feel Like the walls come down
everwhere you stand?
Fill the void
And escape the world with something
Everytime.....Everytime
Everytime.....Everytime
Everytime the truth gets broken
I'm the one to fix it
All the hate don't mean shit
If you're not here to spit it
The fear that haunts us all
The beginning of the end (of the end)
The season is way too cold
Will we last another year (another year)
You kill yourself
Everyday you turn away
(Suffocate.....Seperate)
To face it all
Would you save us from ourselves
Save us from ourselves
Everytime the truth gets broken
I'm the one to fix it
All the hate don't mean shit
If you're not here to spit it
The fear that haunts us all
The beginning of the end (of the end)
The season is way too cold
Will we last another year (another year)
Everytime the truth gets broken
(broken....broken
broken....broken)
(Everytime.....Everytime
Everytime.....Everytime)
The fear that haunts us all
The beginning (of the end)
The season is way too cold
I won't say goodbye
I don't want to use that exit line
Please don't make me lie
I have no excuse for you this time
'Cause sometimes
(It's alright for a season)
But then it's time to go
The verses of my life are moving past
And so now the chorus I must hear
I've got to define my life and times
Before I can give you more than tears
'Cause sometimes
(It's alright for a season)
But then it's time to go
Your heart was stretched to the point of breaking
Your tears are etched and your sorrow is waking
This complicated curse
Causes you to freeze our love in time
If I awaken that first
It's only 'cause you lost yourself in mine
Please don't let me see you cry
'Cause sometimes
It's alright for a season
[Chorus:]
Spring Time
I Wake Up And Close My Eyes
You Gave Me Butterflies
As Our Love Wason The Rise
Summer
The Season Has Reached Its Height
Love Making Through The Night
Until The Morning Light.
Autumn
I See Colours Fading Out
The Heat Is Cooling Down
And Leaves Are Falling To The Ground.
As In Winter
Were Out Of What We Had
We Looking For Excuses
But Our Love Is Simply Dead
But It Is Cold So Cold
And Clouds Burry Us Like Snow.
We Were So Bold To Hold
On To Love Like Gold.
And It's So Beautiful
When Ever Nature Does Her Thing;
Oh It's So Beautiful
Just Like A Queen And A King.
And The Rain Yes The Rain
Couldn't Wash Away My Blame,
Yes The Rain Ah The Rain
Couldn't Wash Away My Blame
[Chorus:]
Spring Time
I Wake Up And Close My Eyes
You Gave Me Butterflies
As Our Love Wason The Rise
Summer
The Season Has Reached Its Height
Love Making Through The Night
Until The Morning Light.
Autumn
I See Colours Fading Out
The Heat Is Cooling Down
And Leaves Are Falling To The Ground.
As In Winter
Were Out Of What We Had
We Looking For Excuses
But Our Love Is Simply Dead
But Life's A Circle
And We Are In It
Some Wait For Miracles
We Push The Limits.
Through Ups And Downs,
Hills And Valleys
I Have Travelled
And I'm Farfrom Finished.
I Keep It Moving ,
Keep It Spinning,
See I Wouldn't Be Me Today
If It Wasn't For The Shit I've Been In.
Can't Be Losing Everwinning
Don't Get Caught Up In Winter Take It Back To The Beginning
[Chorus:]
Spring Time
I Wake Up And Close My Eyes
You Gave Me Butterflies
As Our Love Wason The Rise
Summer
The Season Has Reached Its Height
Love Making Through The Night
Until The Morning Light.
Autumn
I See Colours Fading Out
The Heat Is Cooling Down
And Leaves Are Falling To The Ground.
As In Winter
Were Out Of What We Had
We Looking For Excuses
But Our Love Is Simply Dead
The Right Road Is Rocky (Raggy) And The Hill Is Steep.
If You Forget To Fast And Neglect The Past Will You Find Your Peace
[Chorus:]
Spring Time
I Wake Up And Close My Eyes
You Gave Me Butterflies
As Our Love Wason The Rise
Summer
The Season Has Reached Its Height
Love Making Through The Night
Until The Morning Light.
Autumn
I See Colours Fading Out
The Heat Is Cooling Down
And Leaves Are Falling To The Ground.
As In Winter
Were Out Of What We Had
We Looking For Excuses
[Intro]
One two
It's Masta Ace, Cunninlyguists
We about to get into the seasons
The seasons of hip hop
How we gonna start it?
[Masta Ace]
As we spring back to the past, it was all happening fast
We glorified coke and smoking crack in a glass
When b-boys danced to the latest jam
You could say this man was the greatest fan
When shoelaces were fat, and all the rapper's faces were black
And light-brown, a box with the right sound was all you needed
When it blast...they must move
You just proved you're hard like L in Krush Groove
And songs started to drop - Ain't nobody start at the top
Before Preme (DJ Premier) learned the art of the chop
This is way before SP's...and MPC's
And long before CD's and MP3's
The game started to bloom and blossom
And masters ready for the cermony, like a groom in costume
Growth from the rain of the previous years
I took notes from what I heard through these devious ears
Yeah
[Deacon the Villian]
As Summer's heatwaves ascended in it's splendid manner
Green was flooding our scene, although the skin was tanner
"Fuck The Police!!" jumpin over radio scanners
It was hot in the shade, wet paint all over the canvans
Fuck Vanilla Ice cones, we had T, Cube's Amerikka's Most
And wanted that Chronic on the Left-Coast
Talent pools were full and fresh for swimming
Backstrokin' through Dark Sides and Illmatic beginnings
Them lemonade stands would make you street platinum
It was 2 Live.. Florida crews caught heat for rappin
But free speech pollination kept bee's colonizing in hives
And stung Delores Tucker right in her pride
The Tribes ocean splash was rising the tide
Strictly 4 My Niggaz that were ready to die in the ride
I wish the summer's vibe could've lasted forever
To bad we had to have a change in that weather.. that shit was beautiful
[Chorus]
"Seasons Change, mad things rearrange" - Lauryn Hill, "How Many Mics"
"Play me in the winter, play me in the summer, play in the autumn, any order"- Ladybug, "9th Wonder"
"Seasons Change, mad things rearrange" - Lauryn Hill, "How Many Mics"
"Trees bright and green turn yellow brown, autumn caught em
See all them leaves must fall down" - Andre 3000, "13th Floor/Growing Old"
[Kno]
As the East vs. West winds blew, causing two
Legends to Fall like maple leaves from escalated beef
Assumed that the worst was over
Til these cats started wearing shiny costumes like the 31st of October
The weather's colder, but the word jacket/jack it
Is what they did to people's styles, not what they covered they backs with
Tactics of the skill impaired
No Limit to what they'll do when the green is scarce
Some be Thanksgiving for who they know, while others get jerked for loot
Cause gettin signed ain't a turkey shoot
No respect for the pilgrims who paved the way so you could rock that
Just pop crap and Plymouth Rock-Rap
Beyond gimmicks and fake plastic tits
Outkast and Raekwon dropped fall classic discs
Born to Roll, so I'm taking you back to school days of autumn
Before the bottom dropped out in 2K
[SOS]
By the dawn of the new millennium we saw bright chains
Winter brought along platinum causing the ice age
No more Gold, no more YO! MTV RAPS
Now we got R&B; cats stealing classic rap tracks
In winter it's snowed in like the temperature's below ten
Citizens open up shows for more snowmen
Scrawny boys rock bubblegooses to pose like grown men
And you can catch freezer burn from women when they show skin
Jolly, fat, white men get paid when rap hits the shelves
And artists themselves get treated like Elves
Matter of fact, Santa's gotten so greedy when a rapper sells
You even need clearance to sample Jingle Bells
What the hell! You need cells and 2 ways for chicks to bone ya?
And so much ice on ya body that you can get pneumonia
Even at the beaches of Daytona it's gotten colder
But it's about time for the cycle to start over [echo]
Sounds around me, thoughts before me call to you
Sky above me, water near me reflect you
Dreams of our oneness altered by time
Seasons will change for us all
For us all
[Chorus I:]
Springtime, summer, winter, fall
Springtime, summer, winter, fall with you
Magic grace bestows the place I long to be
Deep inside my heart is high, so come to me
Thinking and rethinking in moments of despair
Worries not needed will fade - with you
Always
[Chorus I]
[Chorus II:]
Springtime, summer, winter, fall ... seasons will change for us all
Springtime, summer, winter, fall ... seasons will change for us all
With you
Summer nights and long warm days
Are stolen as the old moon falls
My mirror shows another face
Another place to hide it all
Another place to hide it all
And I'm lost behind
The words I'll never find
And I'm left behind
As seasons roll on by
Sleeping with a full moon blanket
Sand and feathers for my head
Dreams have never been the answer
And dreams have never made my bed
Dreams have never made my bed
And I'm lost behind
The words I'll never find
And I'm left behind
As seasons roll on by
Now I wanna fly above the storm
But you can't grow feathers in the rain
And the naked floor is cold as hell
This naked floor reminds me
Oh the naked floor reminds me
And I'm lost behind
Words I'll never find
And I'm left behind
As seasons roll on by
If I should be short on words
And long on things to say
Could you crawl into my world
And take me worlds away?
Should I be beside myself
And not even stay
And I'm lost behind
Words I'll never find
And I'm left behind
Chorus:
I feel seasons everywhere,
and I feel blessings in the air;
(those seeds that you've sown),
(you're gonna come into your own, seasons),
walk into your seasons.
Verse 1:
I believe we're in a time
when God's gonna bless the saints,
those who have stayed, those who have prayed,
He's gonna fulfill the promise He made;
for I heard the Spirit say, �it's your time,
the wait is over, walk into your season�.
Verse 2:
I know that you've invested alot,
the return has been slow, you throw up your hands
and say I give up, I just can't take it anymore;
but I hear the Spirit say, 'that it's your time
the wait it over, walk into your season'.
Chorus
Bridge:
You've survived the worst of times,
God was always on your side;
stake your claim,
write your name,
walk into this holy place.
(I hear the Spirit saying, that it's your time, the wait is over')
Vamp 1:
The wait is over it's your time.
Vamp 2:
The wait is over.
Ending:
(I heard the Spirit say,
'that it's your time,
the wait it over),

It disturbs me to see that you're growing old.
It concerns me to be the one you want to hold.
Too busy running on fuel, thank God you made it through.
Let's spend the times we've missed and turn these days to gold.
Too busy running on fuel, thank God you made it through.
Let's spend the times we've missed and turn these days to gold.
And turn these days to gold.
Lost as father and son.
Bring us back together as one.
Seasons change and so did your son.
Strife with emotions that can't be one.
Too busy running on fuel, thank God you made it through.
Let's spend the times we've missed and turn these days to gold.
Want to hand you a piece, of my delicate heart.
This song is to uplift you and not to tear you apart.
Father's lost in the mountains.
But no mountain I can't see.
I know it's late, and the evenings gently giving ground
Shadows remain of the words that were never spoken
All the years that we once held in our hands
Just leave us to wonder
Still the winds are changing all the time
But I know it's too late
The seasons all gone by, oh, whoa
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Seasons can wait `till a thousand years have come and gone
Stories we wrote
All the days that were never counted
Time alone
All the dreams we thought would never die
But then there's tomorrow
For these dreams will save our lonely times
But I know it's too late
The seasons all gone by, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Hear the crashing sound as time slips away
Feel the thunder ride the road
Wearing this chain on my hands that I'm sure to bare
Oh, love rain on you forever more, oh
Oh, listen
I know it's late, and the evening's gently giving ground
Shadows remain of the words that were never spoken
Though I dream
Sometimes dreams are all I know
Leave us to wonder
Though the winds are changing all the time
But I know it's too late
The seasons all gone by, oh, whoa
But I know it's too late
The seasons all gone by, oh, oh, oh
But I know it's too late
The seasons all gone by
Oh, feels so good, oh
And you feel so good, oh, oh
And things must change
Oh, for the center is now, oh
You can feel a change
There's something in ya all
You just don't know
Listen
Oh, oh
But I know it's too late
the sky sets a lighter shade of white this winter,
promising a snow that never did fall, one we never really
saw at all, the air slips into a tired winter chill that
wouldve seeped through our bones if we had been alone,
but we weren't walking alone, no the cold air forces me
to hold my breath but I wouldn't be breathing anyways, so
afraid to breathe, so afraid to speak, there's an aching
in my legs, i feel them going weak, but it's not the cold
or frozen skies, it's just that burning in your eyes,
that keeps me warm I can feel my hands growing numb, but
not before I've found someone who can melt the snow from
winters past, the words i spoke i spoke them fast, for
fear that winter wouldn't last, but I swear there'll be
snow on the ground, and sands on distant shores, and when
She wants to hear a song
A song she can move to
Yeah isn't that what you do?
Come on, I know you
So I give it up
I give it once up
Shake her hips 'round
Then we're gone
Yeah, we're all gone
Just call my name
If I don't say what you're thinking
'Cause we got one more season
Well I'm a criminal at best
The best you will find
So come on make your move
I got the whole night
I got to give it up
I got to be honest
Surely one more drink
Yeah, that should solve it
Just call my name
If I don't say what you're thinking
'Cause we got one more season
So I guess I'll be the one to say
I'm the one to blame
You know I got a point, babe
Don't look at me that way
Yeah I thought about it all day
But only in the worst ways
So tell me where they at now
It's getting better with the seasons and the weather
It's getting better and It's all because of you
Come morning will still be together
Oh girl, we're the best at what we do
We've been getting down to the sounds of summer
Til we could get away and watch the seasons change
Oh, it's the little things you do that drive me crazy
Don't know what to do but I just need you with me
Oh, but I can see that in a way you say
Cause I've got the words and you've got the melody
You've got me singing
It's getting better with the seasons and the weather
It's getting better and It's all because of you
Come morning will still be together
Oh girl, we're the best at what we do
Hoo!
We've been getting down on the nights and weekends
??? of you and me (I knew what)
Cause you wake up to what you want to see (Wake up)
It's getting better now, It's getting better now
Keep up to the rhythym of your heart beat
Sing out all the songs that you love
We got time and this could take all night
It's not love but it feels alright
Cause I've got the words and you've got the melody
You've got me singing
It's getting better with the seasons and the weather
It's getting better and It's all because of you
Come morning will still be together
Oh girl, we're the best at what we do
Oh, what we do
Oooh
And I can feel it in the way the way you say
So sing it back to me
I've got the words and you've got the melody
You've got me singing for you
Cause I've got the words and you've got the melody
You've got me singing
It's getting better with the seasons and the weather
It's getting better and It's all because of you
Come morning will still be together
Oh girl, we're the best at what we do
It's getting better with the seasons and the weather (And I can feel
it in the way you say)
It's getting better and It's all because of you
Come morning will still be together (And I can feel it in the way
you say)
Yeah Hi Tech
Whom do we aspire to reflect on peoples death
Who's entertainment shall we sing our agony
of our hopes
That the destroyers aspiring to extinguish us will suddenly
suffer remorse at the sight of their own fantastic success?
The last imbecile to dream that dream is dead
He was killed by the saviors of his own dream
Our movement
[Verse One]
Im not a human being into no spirtual shit,
Spiritual remanifested as a human that's it
When i spit i spray thoughts that's representing my life
Yo i step into the spot leave niggas open like mics
Take on em on a tour
Explore psychologies of war
Things you can't imagine if you've never seen em before
Shorties come back raw
Straight out the c- 74
I welcome them back to the world they think is run by laws
The world is run by men who use laws for tools
I come thru war tactics like Shaka Zulu
Mcs is soft like play-doh
I shape 'em
smash em to pieces
Slaves crave the words i'm painting
The masterpieces
You hear em on the radio babbling
But the truth is traveling with the word
As they're flying through the air like a javelin
Unraveling like a verdict
Pound it in your chest like a gavel in the highest court
In Bablyon, let's travel on
If the world is foul, and you think foul is how you got to live
Then from the get your ass was foul
And foul just is how you is
No excuses see, life's dilemnas are set up like a mirror
Just to show you all your faces
Now your clearer understanding is clearer
You had your chance for revolution.
You let it pass you by
That's why
I'm dissing wack mc's till the day that I die
Reflection getting you high
We stand our ground with the believers
The leaning tower of Pisa and the Pyramids of Giza
No comparison
The way I flip it is embarassing
Tis the season
Ain't no caroling
[verse 2]
All knowing
Flowing like spring water in the desert
Balling through the barren land
Where niggas take a stand, like castles made of sand
Free falling
For anything
Nothing but a plan to fail for they selves
No sense of delf, needed daily affirmations of self help
Yo it's right in front of yo grill stop looking everywhere else
Speaking of planning,
Hustling and scheming
Looking for hookups
Took up too much time
Like a fiend for rocks that got cooked up
God bless the child that got his own shit
I got my team's
So the fiends now become opponents
They the opposition
Stronger from competition
Shining like a golden shower, your face i'm pissing in
Completing a genocide mission like
The Warren commission
Like fathers was supposed to be missing
While our sisters were supposed to be whoring
Save it for a rainy day, money is pouring
Under grey clouds, black butterflys still be soaring
Flying in frienldy skies
We classifying the highs
Blood be flowing in the streets like crimson tide in my eyes
Tye be having me drowsy
But I get mellow with the chronic
Intellectuals embarrased cause we discussing ebonics
I'm on a roll like sonic
In an age that the plague got bubonic proportions
Yo I call it reparations, but they call it extortion
Whatever
Just give me mine
But caution
You've been warned for the very last time
I'm not telling you again
So relay it to your crew
You gotta actually to do
Forget the drive in, driveby and drive through
You've got to
Get out the car
Humble yourself
Tilt your head back, and look at the stars
Shining over someplace very far, from where you standing
When the night is clear
You understanding just who put them there
What you know about the space you get lost in
Your peoples can't hear you in the distortion
The desert is absorption
And you sucked and you stuck off american freezing for like
2000 seasons
Upon your return from raping and crossbreeding
Your own people accuse you of deceiving and misleading
Causing mass confusion. Drug abusing
Now you all caught up in institutions
At this time you've got to break it down and be showing and proving
An A&R; told me that i use to many catch phrases
true I'm trying to catch all my people in all different stages all
different phases
Hows it feel hows it feel
to be left out there
in the smoke in the cold
the midnight air
does it hurt does it burn
to be unaware of the torture
of a white lie
i don't know where you are so
why do i care i know we're both even so whys it feel unfair
some say that four seasons
are enough for a lifetime
of change i hope when you
think of me you remember the
love that i gave
(when our seasons change)
hows it feel can you deal
with the rise and fall
of a life that ignites
like a mirror ball
and i wonder are you still afraid of the dark
i don't know where you are so
why do i care i know we're both
even so whys it feel unfair
some say that four seasons
are enough for a lifetime
of change and i hope when you
think of me you remember the
love that i gave
this is the life i left behind
this is the memory of you
thats still embedded in my mind
some say that four seasons
are enough for a lifetime
of change and i hope when you
think of me you remember the
Get back to the center
Where it all began
The struggles of a burdened man
Who clung to violence
And transgressed
Against the few who stayed
The few that remained
The few he didn't abandon
Or push away as he left his home
In search of fool’s gold.
He went west but longed for the east
And he waged wars but he longed
For the peace that never made
Its way to ease his troubled heart
I hope they all can see through
The changing of the seasons
We all, we all blossom in spring
And wither in winter (in winter)
When the fall strips you
Of all your color
What will you say as the cold
Eats its way through your bones?
When the ice covers you completely
Completely drained of all hope
I hope they all can see through
The changing of the seasons
We all, we all blossom in spring
And wither in winter
As God as my witness I will survive
To see the sun again
And, wait for its light
To bring its life back to my limbs (my limbs, my limbs)
I pray they all, see through the barren trees
And the lifeless shapes that once were forests
Once the life returns to their eyes
I hope they all can see through
The changing of the seasons
We all, we all blossom in spring
And wither in winter
Verse 1
Just like winter snows
Thats the way seasons come and go
Just like the autumn leaves fall
Thats just the story of us all
Chorus
Seasons, seasons, seasons, seasons
Seasons, they come and they go
Heaven may pass away but Your Word will never change
Verse 2
There will be times when you
Dont have a confidant in view
Just hold your head up high
For your redemption draweth nigh
Chorus 2
Seasons, seasons, seasons, seasons
Seasons, they come and they go
You just stand your ground when life deals you a bad blow
Chorus 3 (Ms. Tonx)
Seasons, seasons, seasons, seasons
Seasons, they come and they go
We tend to think of ourselves as much more important to the grand cosmic
Scale of the universe than we truly are. This is not to say that our
Individual lives are not valued or of importance, but the universe will not
Tremble at the thought of our passing; Truth exists regardless of our
Existence, and nothing we can do or say can strip that Truth of it's
Meaning. At the end of the man's life he faces all he has been, all that he
Has known. He has traversed the tunnels of nihilism and faith, and found
Himself facing one final, immutable Truth.
We've conquered everything, these minds and these machines.
By our hands the earth stops it's spin, and with our will it begins again.
But our first breath is as our last. Our first breath is as our last. Our
First breath is as our last.
And will the heavens still shine without our gaze?
And will the seasons still pass if there's no one to count the days?
We fade like the summer leaves in fall, then drift with the winters wind.
And still we thought that we were gods, but we're nothing more than a grain
Of sand in time.
We've conquered everything, these minds and these machines.
By our hands the earth stops it's spin, and with our will it begins again.
But when the mountains turn to dust, and the rivers all run dry,
When my final breath has come and gone, this place will carry on.
You met her in summer
You thought that you loved her
And you called her yours by the springtime
But something was changing
And round came the fall
And by winter she ended it all
By winter she ended it all
And oh you’ll be fine when the seasons come round
And you’ll love once again
But for now you’ll be hurting and desperate
Be patient while time heals the pain that you’re in
Oh be patient while time heals the pain that you’re in
Another summer just like all the others
And you fell in love by the springtime
But something was changing
And round came the fall
And by winter you ended it all
By winter you ended it all
And oh you’ll be fine when the seasons come round
And you’ll love once again
But for now you’ll be hurting and desperate
Be patient while time heals the pain that you’re in
Oh be patient while time heals the pain that you’re in
And oh you’ll be fine when the seasons come round
And you’ll love once again
But for now you’ll be hurting and desperate
Be patient while time heals the pain that you’re in
I feel inside a thousand clouds
Slowly wander through my winter
Which separates me
From your meadows getting further
Unusualness has covered the sky
Your scent has taken captive my brain
The gallows has hung my soul
Time's erased me... you remained...
Without you
Life won't be green again,
Worth to see again
The clouds will remain black
As I am hanging my own soul
The seasons will be your time,
They will blow as your lifetime
My soul suffocated on the gallows of death
I bore loneliness
I heaved loneliness on my back again
As time was changing it's seasons
when desire becomes alive when it fades it becomes inactive when attached
sparates cause you will not le your destination break
get up get up, give up your mind the season, the violence keeps coming back
breakdown
corruption inside and hateful crimes sorrowful days all full of despise
defective mindsand anxious vibes will never lie the meters sky high standing
high, falling down simple lives will all come together animosiy
will always be till we relieve the children from there tears
I didn't believe in the power of love
I've never seen love at the first sight
I don't know how ypu ever found me
I didn't know of this old misery
I soon realized the connection was there
Now I knew that this was despair
And we've been there before
Through the seasons of strife
Visions of yesterday
Mesmerized so far away
Flashes of yesteryear
The seasons soon disapear
I've seen...the seasons
I've lived...the seasons
You are the keeper of my lost soul
You have the way to make us whole
I've called to ypu so many times
I did not know where to try
[repeat 2]
Now I believe in the power of love
Now I have seen love at the first sight
Seasons come and go
Fade until tomorrow
Seasons come and go
And leave that smile away
They say, leave that smile away
You can come around but never stay
Everybody look
Everybody seem
Faded into a bad, bad dream
Wheels don't work, car won't drive
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide
One naked man
One naked scheme
Faded into a bad, bad dream
Everybody look
Everybody glide
Glide along and wave goodbye
Seasons come and go
Fade until tomorrow
Seasons come and go
Through the hills and valleys
Someone calls my name
Opens up the sky
Takes me off my train
Everybody look
Everybody seem
Faded into a bad, bad dream
Wheels don't work, car won't drive
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide
One naked man
One naked scheme
Faded into a bad, bad dream
Everybody look
Everybody glide
Glide along and wave goodbye
Everybody look
Everybody seem
Faded into a bad, bad dream
back and forth you wonder
through your mind
winters passing over
but it wont find you
take what you can
change the seasons
isolate yourself and
you will find
there's no rhyme or reason
that it wont find you
take what you can
change the seasons
the changing of the seasons is here now
the changing of the seasons is here now, is here now
back and forth you wonder
through your mind
winters passing over
but i don't mind
pressure that you're under
will subside
there's no time to ponder
cuz it wont find you
take what you can
change the seasons
the changing of the seasons is here now
the changing of the seasons is here now, is here now
and i will find you
although i wonder
if i will climb through
this rock im under
im turning the page for something new
im finding my way through life in bloom
the changing of the seasons is here now
the changing of the seasons is here now, is here now
is here now
im turning the page for something new
Chorus
Eve of Mourn
Sickness forms...seasons
Beauty gone
Sadness spawns...seasons
Sorrow, in and out of the point of pain
Reborn,by the way of thoughts gained
Helpless,searching for the answer to death
Dying,waiting for the last breath
Deformed,deformed lives
Unspoken words of a worthless cause,lust is disguised
Forgotten ones scream in pain,lost in demise
Whispers carry through the winds,to hide their shattered lives
Wither and die
Bridge
Decieved by the belief in hope
Bow down before the fate of all
Sea of bliss,wave of conscious all drowning
I'm losing my mind
To some sort of
Instinctive uncertainty
Can you find yourself through it all
With just culture and integrity?
I just woke up
Behind the wheel
In a town I've never seen before
My mileage in Greece
Forecast is gray
and I'm just somewhere inbetween
I wouldn't wanna be
besides me
How can you trust anyone
when we all change with the seasons?
A flip of the coin
decides the end
to this routine open conversation
I'm cut and I'm dry
When I'm without information, inspiration
Only time will tell who I am
Only time will tell who I'll be
Only time will tell who I am
Only time will tell
I would not wanna be
beside me
How can you trust anything
Go ahead and take a walk in my shoes
Maybe you’ll find what I’ve been looking for
Cause living now at the end of time
Doesn’t seem so bad when we’ve got nothing left to lose
I’m changing with the seasons
First sign of spring I’ll be just fine
The sun only shines on paradise
And maybe we’ll get there someday
But for now just take my word
Cause this world’s an ugly place
So don’t change now
Please stay the same
I can’t keep living with my back against the wall
And I can’t lie to myself forever
Even if every step forward is five steps back
At least I’m getting somewhere
I’m changing with the seasons
First sign of spring I’ll be just fine
I don’t know where I’ve been for these past few months
I can’t believe that I got this low
I’ve been preaching ‘keep your head up kid’
When all along I’ve had mine buried in the sand
And I don’t know where I’ve been for these past few months
I can’t believe that I got this low
I’ve listened to the upsides, beside
Looking for the answers
The sun only shines on paradise
And maybe we’ll get there someday
But for now just take my word
Cause this world’s an ugly place
So don’t change now
Everything around me standing still
Down again and lost the will
So sick again the world cries
So you break the tears
And you wipe the times
Lost the words, leave the light on
Never found, still always gone
I try not to drink it all away
Lost the words, leave the light on
Never found, still always gone
Blazed again I wished it all away
Another winter day
It's been so long since I saw the sun
Wake me up and call my name
Every season's the same
These are the days I truly hate
And sunshine's never changing my faith
I'm out of luck, it's been so long
Lost the words, leave the light on
Never found, still always gone
I try not to drink it all away
Lost the words, leave the light on
Never found, still always gone
Blazed again I wished it all away
Hey hey people will do what ever they've set
but I can't forget you or the hole that you left
oh woman be kind and come back to it
I can not do it without you
Have 'em on, have 'em on
I wish I could sit and play with your face
drown in your eyes or gorge in your taste
no woman alive could ever replace
the feelings I have about you
have 'em on, have 'em on
Seasons fly
Watch them sky
Hell inspired
She's so fine
I've been such a fool to hurt you like I have
so what can I do to get you coming back
between me and you and all that we had
I can not do it without you
have em on, have em on
people will do whatever they've set
but I can't forget you all the hole that you left
oh woman be kind and come back to it
have em on, have em on
Seasons fly
Watch them sky hey I'm thinking
Hell inspired all insane, I'm taking
She's so fine all this pain
ah come around
hey hey ah ah ah...
[written by C. Cornell]
Summer nights and long warm days
are stolen as the old moon falls
my mirror shows another face
another place to hide it all
sleeping with a full moon blanket
sand and feathers for my head
dreams have never been my answer
dreams have never been my bed
now i wanna cry about the storm
but you can't grow feathers in the rain
and this naked floor is cold as you
this naked floor remains
and i'm lost, behind
the words i'll never find
and i'm left behind
as seasons roll on by
would you crawl into my world
and take me worlds away
should i be beside myself
i might even stay
Seasons
(we give in)
Seasons
(we give in, we give up)
You start just to end
Separate just to mend again
You change like the seasons
And it's all full of shit
Windlass
(we give in)
Changes
(we give in, we give up)
You start just to end
Separate just to mend again
You change like the seasons
And it's all full of shit
We're still trying
We're still trying yet
Seasons
(we give in)
Seasons
Seasons come and go
Fade until tomorrow
Seasons come and go
Leave that smile away
They say leave that smile away
You can come around but never stay
Chorus:
Everybody look
Everybody seem
Faded into a bad, bad dream
Wheels don't work
Car won't drive
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide
One naked man
One naked scheme
Faded into a bad, bad dream
Everybody look
Everybody glide
Glide along and wave goodbye
Seasons come and go
Fade until tomorrow
Seasons come and go
Through the hills and valleys
Someone calls my name
Opens up the sky
Takes me off my train
Caught in the past remembering you
Wish I could know what happened to you
Wish i could ease the pain with some love that is true
Caught in the lies you had to tell me
About the fact you really were free
Because the passion was too strong to let it be
Summer winter seasons of my life
Autumn springtime, seasons of my mind
Wish i could be everything at least tonight
Wish i could live everything just one more time
Wish i could fly all over the night
Wish i could run the days of my life
Just to see if a wedding ring's on your left hand
Thinking of you and havin good time
Just like the sun you moonlight my mind
Now I'm afraid to waste those memories of our lives
