When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
You know how

Did you ever wake up to find
A day that broke up your mind
Destroying your notion of circular time
It's just that demon life has got you in its sway
It's just that demon life has got you in its sway
Ain't flinging tears out on the dusty ground
For all my friends out on the burial ground
Expect the feeling getting so brought down
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
There must be ways to find out
Love is the way they say is really strutting out
Hey, hey, hey now
One day I woke up to find
Right in the bed next to mine
Someone that broke me up with a corner of her smile
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway

(M. Jagger/K. Richards)
Did you ever wake up to find
A day that broke up your mind
Destroyed your notion of circular time
It's just that demon life has got you in its sway
It's just that demon life has got you in its sway
Ain't flinging tears out on the dusty ground
For all my friends out on the burial ground
Can't stand the feeling getting so brought down
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
There must be ways to find out
Love is the way they say is really strutting out
Hey, hey, hey now
One day I woke up to find
Right in the bed next to mine
Someone that broke me up with a corner of her smile, yeah
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me in its sway
It's just that demon life has got me...
It's just that demon life has got me...

You know how

expel at cost
i've looked for valuation
return what's lost
ive thrived on agitation
i live in fear
fear of my contradiction
free my eyes of fire
greed, my heart desires
im free this way
no love is lost
no love of condescending
who do i trust?
trusting or just pretending
maybe its wrong.
maybe im speculating
free my eyes of fire
greed, my heart desired
im free this way
the path i cross
is strewn with alterations
all at a loss
bargain infatuation
why did i try?
cause it's so complicated
i free my eyes of fire
greed, my heart desired

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me
Make me sway
Like the lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close
Sway me more
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me
Sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me
Sway with me
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway I grow weak
I can hear the sound of violins
Long before
It begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth
Sway me now
Quien sera el que me quiere a mi
Quien sera
Quien sera
Quien sera el que me de su amor
Quien sera
Quien sera
I can hear the sound of violins
Long before
It begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth
Sway me now

I want to say yes to what you say
If there's a movement then I want to sway
Get a piece of the action, uh huh, uh huh
I want to see you in the crowd
And I want to point your face out very loud
And get a piece of the action, uh huh, uh huh
chorus: Don't you want a piece of the action?
Don't you want a piece of the action?
Yeah...oh yeah...oh yeah...oh yeah
'Sex-o-fact' it slips in vogue
Sells a star, furnishes your home
You get a piece of the action, uh huh, uh huh
Violence on the silver screen
You got the most fashionable death since James Dean
You get a piece of the action, uh huh, uh huh
{Repeat chorus}
Oh yeah
I'll say yes to what you say
If there's a movement than I want to play
Get a piece of the action, uh huh, uh huh
And I want to see you in the crowd
And I want to point your face out very loud
Get a piece of the action, uh huh, uh huh
{Repeat chorus}
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah...oh yeah, yeah

I'm not the animal I used to be but you
Shouldn't speak ill of the dead
I've never been just one of the boys, I've never hidden guns under the bed
I feel like Jesus, I feel betrayed, and you know
Damn well that I feel crucified
Assassination, shot full of vitrial, there's so
Many more heroic ways to die
I close my eyes and I start to drift away
I close my eyes and I start to sway
Lie back and think of England I'll just fake it some more
A carrion feast for the ravens and the crows
I know my price and I'll be your whore and I
Don't care if the whole damn world knows
I feel so jaded, so tired and so worn
I feel like I've got nothing left to say
I'll be a martyr, a brave little soldier cos
There's so many demons left to purge and slay
I close my eyes and I start to drift away
I close my eyes and I start to sway
Trapped in the eye of a hurricane
Taking a ride on a runaway train
Behind the wheel of a crashing car
Caught in the trail of a falling star
Can't turn my back without a blade digging deep
It's more than enough to make a grown man cry
The God in me is the, the devil in you, there's
Many more beautiful ways to die
I close my eyes and I start to drift away

Slave, moan and sway
All around the world you
Slave, moan and sway
Well I drove the ute to the paper mill
Where my brother is slaving still
Messing around with the thick end of a screw
Turning it and feeding it through
To the steel above
Big steam below
When the process breaks down
Nobody knows
Where are the prizes to be next time he comes around?
Where are the prizes to be next time he goes...
Dancing to the rhythm of a falling sound
Till the walls around the mill come tumbling down
Slave, moan and sway
Sing it
All around the world you
Slave, moan and sway
Young bloods and sweethearts
Slave, moan and sway
So I drove the ute to the paper mill
Where my, where my brother is slaving still
He's messing around with the thick end of a screw
Turning it and feeding it through
To the steel above
Big steam below
When the process breaks down
Nobody knows
Where are the prizes to be next time he comes...
Dancing to the rhythm of a falling sound
Till the walls around the mill come tumbling down
Slave, moan and sway

When maramba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway I grow weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway I grow weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how

my heart, your hands, gentle my friend
break me neatly, numb me sweetly
say you would, say you could
say you'd come and stop the rain
say you'd try and hold me tight
and you just give me away
make me high on lullabies
a melody for me to sway
say you would, say you could
and you don't do anything
come down heavy, try and steady
precious ladies, love you, love me...
hold my head up to the lies that you feed me
I'll fall under the spell you cast as you let me down
say you would, say you could
say you'd come and stop the rain
say you'd try and hold me tight
and you just give me away
make me high on lullabies
a melody for me to sway
make me high on lullabies a melody for me to sway

We sway, grabbed you by the hips and handed off
We went across the sanded floor
She said that’s not sand, it's salt, it will get warm
Like we did before
I only want to dance with you,
Every time I try
We only get an hour or so
It’s time to get personal
We’ve got this times of our lives
Let’s take the time to let it show
‘cause these are ours, ‘cause these are ours
And we sway and the moon shines down
And everybody’s safe
Christmas lights all day and I’m rightly so
‘cause we feel high as fuck and everything is good
It’s good to go now as the snow falls down
Feels great to be honest forget about the troubles
Just forget about the drama
‘cause I ain’t casanova
No, baby I can’t dance for days
And this time with you is just amazing in so many ways
I only want to dance with you,
Every time I try
We only get an hour or so
It’s time to get personal
We’ve got this times of our lives
Let’s take the time to let it show
‘cause these are ours, ‘cause these are ours
And we stay until we want to
And that’s how it used to be
And we never felt apart
And we stay until we want to
And we just sway

Say whatever you have to say, I'll stand by you.
Do whatever you have to do, to get it out and not become a reaction memory
To hurt the ones you love you know you never meant to but you do
oh yeah you do
Be whoever you have to be, I won't judge you
Sing whatever you have to sing to get it out and not become a recluse about how to come out
I know you never meant to but you do
oh but you do
Still I need your sway, because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your soul because your always soulful
And I and I need your heart, because your always in the right places
And take whatever you have to take, you know I love ya
come however you have to come, and get it out and get it out
Tttttake it out on me, take it out on me
I'll give it you all, I give it you all,i give it
I give you all I give it you all, yes I will give it you all
Cause I need your sway, because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your soul because your always soulful
And I and I need your heart, because your always in the right places
Oh yes I will, I will give it you all
Still I need your sway, because you always pay for it
And I, and I need your soul because your always soulful

When the sun comes down
When the rain wash away
All the hopes I can bring
To another day
Another day
When your trees start to sway
And the wind makes them move
I can tell that
You don't know
To all the fights I've conquered and beyond
The times have changed and I will now move over slowly...
But through it all I still feel lost without you
Hard to find a new soul
The silence takes its toll
Just sway
You don't know...
Just sway
You don't know...
Just sway
When all you want is to find home...
Theres a light pausing
Feel the volume of the sky
Mark your place in time with another question why...
Tiny flickers in the night
Always lookin to be right
You don't know
Just sway
You don't know
Just sway
When all you want is to find home...
Just sway
And you don't love
Just sway
And you don't know
Just sway
When all you want is to find home...
Ooooh ooooh ooooh ooooh
Just sway

I kinder as the summer beats around me
It reminds me when I could not let
To live an inside life, I need escaping
A grown up world, oh
Lying in a blessed foray,
Every dance is always the same
When the emcee calls your name
You know you're gonna be prepared
Please sway with me,
I take comfort in what used to be
Testing on me,
Many lifeforms in the dirt, breaking out in bravery
Watching clouds turn into black light
Birthing out inside in first light
You sit there long enough and still enough
You'll see a hole punch in the sky
Come and see the beautiful view,
Flicker in and out of our youth
Forming patterns in the sky
You know what papermoon don't lie
Please sway with me,
I take comfort in what used to be
Testing on me,
Many lifeforms in the dirt, breaking out in bravery

Slide through the back door
With your life strings attached
I can see the heavens
On my back
Can see for miles
Open your eyes
Can't see what I'm living for
My heads so high
Slip through the back door
With my head in your hands
Well I might not see the morning
But I got no plans
Can see for miles
And I can open my eyes
Well I can't see what I'm living for
Head so high
Sway slow, stay low
Hey mama, take your cool hand away from me
Take it away and let me be
Hey mama, take your cool love away from me
Take it away and let me bleed in peace
Slide through the back door
With your life strings attached
I can walk the heavens
On my back
I can see for miles and miles
Ain't that grand
Well I might not see the morning
But I got no plans
Slip through the back door
With my head in your hands
Well I've seen so many things
That my mum won't believe
This life sure is wierd
But what else have I to know
Well I've done so many things
That my folks don't want to know about
Sway slow, stay low
Hey mama, take your cool hand away from me
Take it away and let me be
Hey mama, take your cool love away from me
Take it away and let me bleed in peace

Don't stray, don't ever go away
I should be much too smart for this
You know it gets the better of me
Sometimes, when you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you, pull me out in time
Don't let me drown, let me down
I say it's all because of you
And here I go, losing my control
I'm practicing your name
So I can say it to your face
It doesn't seem right to look you in the eye
Let all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth
Indeed it's time to tell you why
I say it's infinitely true
Say you'll stay, don't
Come and go like you do
Sway my way, yeah
I need to know all about you
And there's no cure and no way to be sure
Why everything's turned inside out
Instilling so much doubt
It makes me so tired, I feel so uninspired
My head is battling with my heart
My logic has been torn apart
And now it all turns sour
Come sweeten every afternoon
Say you'll stay, don't
Come and go like you do
Sway my way, yeah
I need to know all about you
Say you'll stay, don't
Come and go like you do
Sway my way, yeah
I need to know all about you
It's all because of you
It's all because of you
Now it all turns sour
Come sweeten every afternoon
It's time telling you why
I say it's infinitely true
Say you'll stay, don't
Come and go like you do
Sway my way, yeah
I need to know all about you
Say you'll stay, don't
Come and go like you do
Sway my way, yeah
I need to know all about you
It's all because of you
It's all because of you

the roof the roof the roof is on fire
we don't need no water let the motherfucker burn
burn motherfucker burn
burn, burn, burn, burn
just a little and nothing now it's over
just a little and nothing now it's over
what you said, no,
you're never gonna say again
in your own special way you tear me down
sway - so hypnotic
neither up nor down,
just been turned and turned
it just sits inside so it burns and burns
if i can't decide what makes you hurt
in your own special way you tear me down
so ask me please, please
give me something good, now
something
give me something good, now
give me

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like the lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance, you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway, I grow weak
I can hear the sound of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway, I grow weak
I can hear the sound of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now

Did you ever wake up to find
A day that broke up your mind?
Destroyed your notion of circular time
It's just that demon life
Got you in its sway
It's just that demon life
Got you in its sway
ain't flinging tears out on the dusty ground
For all my friends out in the burial ground
Can't stand this feeling, getting so brought down
It's just that demon life
Got you in its sway
It's just that demon life
Got you in its sway
There must be ways to find out
Love is the way they say
Is really strutting out, oh
One day I woke up to find
Right in the bed next to mine
Someone that broke me up
With a corner of her smile
It's just that demon life
Got me in its sway
It's just that demon life
Got me in its sway
It's just that demon life

You know how

Sway,
To the breeze all around of this loneliest day
And pray
I pray to this drink that can wipe me away
Far away
For today
My life don't belong to me
Don't belong to me
Don't belong to me
So I sway.
Sway,
In the city of grey and it's meaningless day
I crave, crave, crave
For something or anything to wipe me away
Far away
Far away
My life don't belong to me
Don't belong to me
Don't belong to me
Lovedon't belong to me
Don't belong to me
Don't belong to me
The world's out of reach
The world's out of reach
The world's out of reach of me.
Sway,
Wipe the blood of the eyes onto blood on the hands
You slave,
Slave of disorder keep scraping away
Every day
Becomes every day
My life don't belong to me
Don't belong to me
Don't belong to me
Love don't belong to me
Don't belong to me
Don't belong to me
Let me tell you
Nothing belongs to me
It don't belong to me
It don't belong to me
The world's out of reach
The world's out of reach
The world's out of reach
The world's out of reach of me.
SWAY yes I'll sway
Forever to stumble across of the flickering day
Yes I'll sway
Reaching out for the bottle
Reach out for the end of the day.
Reach out for the end of the day.

I talk to you as to a friend
I hope that?s what you've come to be
It feels as though we've made amends
Like we found a way eventually
It was you who picked the pieces up
When I was a broken soul
And then glued me back together
Returned to me what others stole
I don?t wanna hurt you
I don?t wanna make you sway
Like I know, I've done before
I will not do it anymore
I've always been a dreamer
I've had my head among the clouds
But now that I?m coming down
Won?t you be my solid ground?
I look at you and see a friend
I hope that?s what you wanna be
Are we back now where it all began?
Have you finally forgiven me?
You gathered my dreams in
When they all blew away
And then tricked them back into me
You saved me I was almost dead
I don?t wanna hurt you
I don?t wanna make you sway
Like I know, I've done before
I will not do it anymore
I've always been a dreamer
I've had my head among the clouds
Well now that I?m coming down
Won?t you be my solid ground?
I don?t wanna hurt you
Like I know, I've done before
I will not do it anymore
I don?t wanna hurt you
I don?t wanna make you sway
Like I know, I've done before
I will not do it anymore
I've always been a dreamer
I've had my head among the clouds
Well now that I?m coming down

Say whatever you have to say
I'll stand by you
Do whatever you have to do
To get it out and not become
A reactionary to hurt the ones you love
I know you never meant to but you did
But you did
Be whoever you have to be
I won't judge you
And sing whenever you have to sing
To get it out and not become
A recluse about your house, come out
I know you never meant to but you did
Oh but you did
Still I need your sway
Cos you always pay for it
And I and I need your soul
Cos you're always soulful
And I and I need your heart
Cos you're always in the right places
Take whatever you have to take
you know I love you
And come however you have to come
To get it out, and get it out
Take it
Take it out on me
Take it out on me
I'll give it you all
I'll give it you all
I'll give it you all
I'll give it you all
Yes, I will give it you aaallll
Still I need your sway
Cos you always pay for it
And I and I need your soul
Cos you're always soulful
And I and I need your heart
Cos you're always in the right places

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Sway me, make me
Thrill me, hold me
Bend me, ease me
You have a way with me
Sway with me
Sway (sway) (Sway)
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I go weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Sway me
Sway me
Sway me now

One, two, three, yeah!
I'm in love with everything I see today.
Well, it's bright, and new.
Some waves have borrowed all of my pain.
For the next few hours, I can sway.
I can sway. Where I lay, I can sway.
The water's rising, life is ending.
Oh, I've lived on top of my own words.
Simplified.
I'm not shaking.
Speed is the only factor.
A kitten on a patio, a kitten on a patio is looking for me.
A kitten on a patio, that kitten on a patio can't get to me where I lay.
Where I lay, I can sway. Where I lay, I can sway.
The water's rising, life is ending.
Oh, I've lived on top of my own words.

I cast myself into the sea,
To swim, why even try?
To fight the currents and win is slim,
So for now, enjoy the ride.
Compassion once filled to the brim,
For those who lost their way.
You had your chance, you chose to dance,
So for now I’ll just…
Sway along,
I’ll just sway along.
I recall yesterday, and just the other day
I found myself alone,
With a compass and a ship with no captain,
Headed on my way home,
See, the only problem with my idea was
I had to place to go.
I found myself in you for sometime,
But now I’m all alone.
Guess I’ve gotta…
Sway along,
I’ll just sway along.
Find my way home,
Oh, I’ll just sway along.
Look at me, I used to care,
Everybody point and stare,
I’m lost, I’m so lost!
You used to consume my mind,
But I was quick and sure to find,
You can’t ever love anyone
Who doesn’t love you back,
Anymore, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh!
Anymore, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, ohhh…
Sway along,
I’ll just sway along.
Find my way home,
Oh, I’ll sway along.
Sway, ay ay ay, ay ay ay, along.
Sway, ay ay ay, ay ay ay, ay ay ay ayyy along.

When calypso rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance, you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me
Other dancers may be on the floor
I got eyes, dear, to see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway, I grow weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
(When calypso rhythms start to play)
Whoa, whoa (dance with me)
Yeah, yeah (make me sway)
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more
(Like a flower bending in the breeze)
Whoa, whoa (bend with me)
Yeah, yeah (sway with ease)
When we dance, you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway, I grow weak
I can hear that sound of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Ah, sway me smooth, sway me now
Make me thrill as only you know how

Hype boys, hype boys
Everyone's a killer
Drug dealer with the nine mill'er
That's not sensible
And I can sense the bull
That's why these rapers couldn't see me comin'
If they were vaginas with spectacles
And I've got the testicles to testify the truth
Half these rapers are only gansters in the booth
And they ain't never been to no pen
They just hold one
Me I be no gangster, I'm just tellin' you the truth
But I run up in the game like bang bang bang bang
That's why, that's why everyone keeps sayin'
Have you heard Sway he's Nine Nine Nine Nine
That guy, that guy's heavy in the game
And ask where buy this Fe Fi Fo
But them guys coulda never feel my flow
Sway all the way from the U to the K
Order Bacardi up in the Te To Oh
Getting over the cds I've sold in it
I just want 'em to know that's the goal in it
That's the goal ain't it
Half the haters they ain't doing nothing with a mike but holdin' it
They slow, with it
So they could new bring it to the game in the new school
I play too brutual
That's why I control like a court side teacher's bugle
People down in england ain't all wild
But some places in Britain ain't the place to raise your child
Cause even the royal family ain't all smiles
Cause everybody knows, Harry don't look like Charles
See me I've never been to court and I've never been on trial, boys
Never been fought even though I've been around, boy
What's that thing in your hand? Put it down boy
Cause you're not a killa, you're a sound boy
[Chorus]
Hype boys, hype boys
Everyone's a bad man now
On the mike boys, mike boys
And everyone's a mad man now
And the semi goes
Bratatatatatatatata (yeah right)
And the semi goes
Ratata (nah), bang bang
Hype boys, hype boys
Everyone's a mad man now
On the mike boys, mike boys
And everyone's a bad man now
And the semi goes
Bratatatatatatatata (yeah right)
And the semi goes
Ratata (nah), bang bang
Pound is stronger than the doller (holla)
Sway, I run up in this game
Like a rub'er without a rubber
And now I been around and a pro
Won a couple of awards now, round of applause
And now I'm making peas and I'm pleasing my people
Not even a Jamiroquai hat could fit my ego
'nough of these rappers ain't real, they just rapping hype
Why you shouting all the time, don't you have a mike?
Run up in the club like, be-ow, be-ow
Bust two lyrics then, we out, we out
Them boys talk to re-al, real
But they post like, meow meow
And they don't really want no war time,
This rap game is all mine
It will never be your time
Never bra, 'cause you're small time
And I got more time, so settle down boy
Before I make you look like something like a clown boy
What's that thing in your hand? Put it down boy
'Cause you're not a killa, you're sound boy
[Chorus}
Are you a liar?
If your reply is no you're lying now
Because we living a lie
and then we die
and then we're lying down
Look at my Adam's Apple
It's not that my neck hurts, no no
Its just the truth is hard to swallow
And you can see that I'm an expert
So let, let me elaborate
As I navigate
Like a husky
But trust me
The truth is, I wouldn't even trust me
Many rely on religion, that doesn't make sense
Cause that's considered a sin
It is really no winning
'cause every one habors a liar within them
It's just that we're different
Being a bad liar is like having a bad lawyer
As soon as they get caught they get the sentence uffed up
A good liar's benevolent
With a memory like an elephant
Intelegent
And knows exactly when to shhhhh
Lies spread around like viruses
So how can I survive in this?
'Cause even the truth lies (where?)
In people's irises
So how can I resist
I had to lie to write this verse
Got my talent for twisting words
Hence my title, I'm a "lie"ricist
When you work the people don't want to leave alone
'Cause you gotta make money you don't need the loan
I'm a businessman underneath the foam
But you lie to the people and lead them on
You're not a bad boy, no
I got a bad boy flow
'Cause when in Rome you do what the Romans do
Especially when all roads lead to Rome
You need to stop pretending
Your mix tapes are still in boxes
'Cause you don't have a fan in your bedroom
What's that thing, in your hand? Put it down boy
'Cause you're not a killa, you're a sound boy

When Marimba rhythm start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like the lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
You know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now

Sexy girls all around let's get together to the dj sounds

Somebody please hospital, where's my friends I think I lost em all

They say age is nothing a number but I think that that's pretty dumb
Because if age is nothing but a number how come I could'ntget into the club
When I was sixteen, they showed no love.
When I was 18 they still didn't like me
Now I'm 21, still show no love, unless I show them some I.d
Now I'm in the club and the whole scene's lively
Plus going home with a girl, quite likely
And I don't give a toss about the VIP
Cause the best part is going on inside me
Sound at the baseline so excite me
I get so hyped everybody wanna fight me
One last drink will go down nicely
Then I'll leave if I could find my keys.
I'm lean. I'm drunk. please don't try take me for no punk

and even in the wind i never blew it
(they say!)

[lupe fiasco]
with a gas tank full of tear drops
collected over the years, what has fueled this here drop
i'm so high, everytime i drive my ears pop
clutch full of victory, never let it slip through my gear box
like a ? they drop into a rise
look into my headlights, might go blind looking in my eyes
lewis, lewis hamilton showing up on this track
if you ever lost, then every feel exhausted
there's only one formula to bring it back
sway and 'pe, go together like a&k;
4 and 7, trigger/finger
put it in the air and make it spray (blaow)
kick it like a hotspurs game, tottenham's ashes
not about cricket, strapped, we bash the brains outta
[sway]
pedal to the metal on a level i ain't gonna settle
for anything less than gold
i ain't gonna meddle around about
end up down and out
tryna build since i was little kid i never had the lego
running through the fields and the meadows of ally pally
and now i'm a hill with geppetto
was enough to make a fake boy real!
i can definitely make a real boy hard as steel!
i ain't gonna stop until i do a couple of millions
i gave them my demo, now it's time to deal again!
i'm back up on the bill again
i'm fresh from the bank,
bob's your uncle!
mines uncle phil again
because i've got the will power i've got the potential
and i got the credentials
all of the essentials when it gets stressful
my bp rises but i'm never gonna stop
unless i need to get petrol!
(swah!)

DCY we roll up and smoke any (w) rapper on the scene no but (t) s

It's like south Africa all over biggin' chests but we don't see no Cups
Joy ride beats call these go-karts, I ain't never moved keys
But you see those sparks, team full of Spartans
If you see 300 views it's only because the screen froze up
And I'm a good sport call me PE and supported PE. Yo Chuck!
You would think I sell food, the way my BB goes off
Postman so Posty post up from I dropped my Delivery the scene woke up

Yeah, Sway's wild on the beat, go blind on it I'm a Ray Charles on the beat
They study my every sentence the bars can't hold this Konvict F the trail I'm a beast

[Intro: child]
Ladies and gentleman,
Welcome to the end of the beginning,
My name is Sway,
A.k.a Little Derek.
And right now,
I'm about to take you,
To the very beginning,
Before the after,
Prior to the present,
Before the hype,
Before the magazines,
Before the buzz,
And before the mix tape,
Back to the blood, sweat and tears.
Growing up I had too much on my mind,
So I needed a way to get,
All of this crap out of my head,
So I chose music.
This is my beginning,
This is my introduction,
This is my dream.
Listen very carefully,
This is my demo.
[Sway:]
It's da arrival of Decihper,
Live from this london dungeon,
(Underground)
Dats where I've been puttin' it,
Down for my people on the,
North side,
(Get up)
East side,
(Get up)
West side,
(Get up)
South side,
(Get up)
Inside,
(Yeah)
Outside,
(Yeah)
Get up, Get up, Get up, Get up.
Un-der...
(Underground)
Dats wot I'm sayin yeah?
And for years,
Dats how long I waited here,
And I'm prepared,
Back then people never wanted to hear me though,
Dats wen I had to shoot a lil video,
Now I'm giving you the album,
Here we go!
Ever since I was a 'lil kid about 6 7 8 9 or 10,
I always wanted to be bigga than Big Ben,
But dreams can easily come to an end when your livin' in the big l.o.n.d.o.n.,
The city dat never sleeps so how do we dream?
'Lil kids forced to think like men and the big smoke just gets you lean,
To get a good start in life I took a run up instead of pickin' a gun up,
I picked up a pen and I shoot for the sky,
Run up on the clouds,
Dats why I got one up on you clowns,
Now I'm becomin da talk of da town,
Just yesterday I was walkin around,
Tryin to figure out how I'm gonna come up on the crown,
Now I'm in the middle when the gathering crowds are sayin:
(Sway)
The beginning is still in my memory,
(Sway)
I was sittin' in my school assembely,
(Sway)
Never listen to what da teachers tellin' me,
(Sway)
I was thinkin' "will I live to seventy? ",
(Sway)
And if I die will the world remember me?
(Sway)
Whos my frends and whos my enemys?
(Sway)
Who will love and who will envy me?
(Sway)
Now I'm ready for whatever is ment to be.
(Sway [x20])
I put my blood sweat and tears in this music,
I will not fail,
Your listening to,
This is my demo.
Once upon a time in a place called Harrogate,
Lived this average african black kid tryin' to get up in this,
(Industry)
Flat 23 brook road he would practice rapping rapidly,
This rap MC had a lot to say with a little time so he rapped quick,
Not to say he never had any frends but he never had many never had a penny to acces the industry,
05/09/82: Flew back to the mother land where he grew flew back to the other land he was too english boy with an african accent,
05/09/92: Using the music rooms at his school recording rythems then he rid 'em with riddles now hes an african boy with an english accent,
Now hes twenty two,
And your listening too,
His first official lp debut,
And I got the energy (Uh),
I'm not jus' an n.I.g.(Uh),
I'm still hungry and I'm eag (Uh),
And I'm more ready than I've ever been (Uh),
Because I've been persuading this thing from school,
Since commodore,
Atari and Amiga,
Remember me sir?
I ain't in it to be number two,
Five albums that's what I'm gunna do,
Five albums then I'm done,
Then I'm through,
The enemies (Uhhh),
Can bite the dust,
This is all before the hype,
The buzz,
This is all before the wife,
The lust,
The lies the thugs with knives and guns,
It's entertainment for you but it's life for us,
It's time to buzz my niggas.
(Sway)
The beginning is still in my memory,
(Sway)
I was sittin' in my school assembely,

Never listen to what da teachers tellin' me,

{Left side islamic prayer}
{Right side christian prayer}
I've got angels on my nokia,
I'm out here and I got no fear,
No foes or no phobias,
So all those plottin' with the obeahs,
And voodoo deres no hope for yah,
Hang yourself I got rope for yah,
I said deres no hope for yah,
Hang yourself I got rope for yah,
'Cause God would never let the devil harm any G's,
And when I'm in the dark read psalms twenty three,
I'm trying to do good on the path for the beasts,
A place where the bad boys are the police,
Trapped in between the imman and the priest,
And I can't see,
If I'm gonna be in the Church with a cross around my neck,
Or in a Mosque with a Quran and a palm full of beads.
(Sway)
The beginning is still in my memory,
(Sway)
I was sittin' in my school assembely,
(Sway)
Never listen to what da teachers tellin' me,
(Sway)
I was thinkin' "will I live to seventy? ",
(Sway)
And if I die will the world remember me?
(Sway)
Whos my frends and whos my enemys?

Who will love and who will envy me?

Now I'm ready for whatever is ment to be.

[Intro:]
I'm only 23 but I feel like i'm older, d'beta(??) i'm a hunchback from carryin the world on my shoulders
If the world (???) all hold us in the land of tony blair it's hard to BBC my dreams n stay focused
And i've always been a loner in the form of a trio the three amigos who? me, myself and I aint no (??)
N' aint nutin changed but ma size, and the fact im on the rise, it's two thousand and five
[Verse 1:]
I'm everybodys friend now, i'm everybodys cousin cuz i'm the up n' comer comin up i see him comin
to eat with the up n' comer
sleep with the up n' do songs with and try steal heat from the up n' comer
the only person I trust is my mother from day dot through all the ups n' coming down she supported me
she said that ima keep it, pregnant in secret, ignoring all the encouragements to have aborted me
family cursing me forgettin it coulda been worse remember i chose the beats over the streets
kept on tellin me to go to university it's all reversed now, now that i'm tipped to do well commercially
as for friends? we've moved on and grown up I used to rap with a crew called one,
we broke up now being solo only shows you who your true friends are when you invite them to shows but they dont show up
[Chorus:]
I don't wanna hear the cries no more
Find your dream i'm chasing mine
Give it all you got n strive for more
Lifes too short to waste my time n I look up at the sky and all I see; is I can only rely on me becuz at the end of the day i'm still on my own
[Verse 2:]
You mighta seen me standin on the streets tryna sell my CD's at five pound a pop it was me, X-I-LEM P
back to the studio to make another beat, no whip this was all done by fee then we called up michael merridith to get a good mix
he put it on a DAP, i put it on a DISC n we give it to the DJ's to throw to put it out and a little bit of DAT a little bit of DIS
[Verse 3:]
Lifes a bitch, in a relationship with time, sleepin wiv me on the side!
lay front of life is death n im a young dog tryna stay alive i look at life DOGGY STYLE!
there aint no stoppin me now no lookin back to when I was trapped between religions it wasn't simple
because I feared bending over backwards to get into heaven only to end up in limbo
n this is what im sayin now...
[Chorus: x2]
I don't wanna hear the cries no more
Find your dream i'm chasing mine
Give it all you got n strive for more
Lifes too short to waste my time n I look up at the sky and all I see is; I can only rely on me becuz at the end of the day i'm still on my own
n this is what im sayin now... (but last line not repeated the 2nd time)

Hello everybody I'm sway, welcome to my world
I'm coming to you from the same place as the spice girls
But I don't flippin sit around sippin tea
I rap more than santa claus on christmas eve
And when I show up the crowd stares in disbelief
As the host drops the mic and he kisses his teeth
I'm the reason so many millionaires are cryin
Cause the MDs are screamin down the phones "why the hell havent we signed him?! "
Some of these rappers need reminding, they ain't after my rythm mate, cause even in australia I'm flying
But keep trying, you only live once
So if you ain't living it up you ain't living, you're dying.
[Chorus:]
Sick world that's all up in my mind
I don't know what is wrong
I don't know what is riight
This world, that's going on inside
Don't know who to kick out
Or who I should invite
Oooh nooo
"Hey mate, Sway, what are you gonna do mate? you gonna put it on the barby? or put it in the barby?... barby, barby, barby,.. barby brown"
One day I wanna be bigger than peter andre
Or bigger than the pair of lips kissing on beyonce
Bigger than the willies shown in any given sunday
Selling units in amsterdam, sweden and francais.
The other day me and my enemy was beefin
So I hit him in the face with a baseball bat and he was bleedin
Somebody asked why I did it, I said I didn't, I was swinging it, and you know bats they didn't see him.
Got into america like slick rick and floetry
To show everybody my big bollocks and british poetry
But if I flop I'll just come back in disguise
And tie a british flag over my face so no-one knows it's me
[Chorus:]
Sick world that's all up in my mind
I don't know what is wrong
I don't know what is riight
This world, that's going on inside
Don't know who to kick out
Or who I should invite
Oooh nooo
Ever since I was born I been torn
Between two worlds my imagination and normal
Got bored of watching horror films and porn
Thus my mind conjured up thoughts abnormal
Trapped in a world I made that ain't mine
And you can't see it all in a day it takes time
Come visit my living room of lyrics and you'll find
There's a picture of my future in my frame of mind
See me? I got to much CDs, and watch too much TV
One day my teacher asked me what I wanna be
At parents evening and I replied "I want to be a tree"
He laughed, but then my mum started cussin me in twi
Those were the days the ladies never wanted me
Like "ugh like dereks like as ugly as can be"
Cause my tooth wasn't exactly straight
No wat I mean gov like me and the dentist wasn't exactly mates
So for about a year I had to wear a flippin brace
Feel like a bum for 350 days
Then I took of my braces, got big in places
Now if a chick don't like me she's racist
[Chorus:]
Sick world that's all up in my mind
I don't know what is wrong
I don't know what is riight
This world, that's going on inside
Don't know who to kick out
Or who I should invite

But once I take shower I'm alert, lert, lert

With max keen a deal, max pain I am

Not chase the groupies, I chase the grands
Rap pays my man, backstage I am
Nervous til I think of that great?, back pains my man
Untils I get old I says I am the best
So that says I am
I'm a alot, and I got more balls then camlet
When I'm on then your whole set dips like camlet
Plus I'm a boss I'm a boss, I claim I am

We hustle, it's saturday night hustle
We hustle hard, it's saturday night hustle
Yeah we're on the hustle hustle baby,

From the big big big big smoke to the big big big big apple,
Whether you drink drink drink drink coke or sip sip sip sip Snapple,
From the Capital to capital I'm trying to get that capital,
Until my name's up in bright lights and capitals,
In the big big big big city, it's a bit bit bit bit crazy,
Where babies are having babies that grow up and rob old ladies,
I've been on the hustle daily trying to get rap to pay me,
Cause working in gap or Sainsbury's ain't gunna get that Mercedes
Born in the eighties in London but African raised,
And I've dreamed of packing those raves since back in the days, it's dreams,
In the classroom banging on tables till the teacher says,
Derek sit back and behave
It seems in my 22 years so much has happened
But I'm still progressing, bank balance going up per annum,
But when you're doing rapping Charlie, seems to take a shooting or stabbing to go platinum Charlie,
I ain't gunna let that happen Charlie.
[Chorus:]
City life I love you
Even though the skies are grey,
I'll never place no place above you,
People trying to hustle every night and day,
Some are living the high life,
Under the bright lights,
While others get high and throw their lives away,
And every night I pray that I don't go insane
And end up just another product of the city
It's a bit bit bit bit crazy up in the big big big big smoke,
If you're a lil lil bit bit lazy you'll end up a lil lil bit bit broke,
Overseas it seems british folk are known for sniffing coke,
Being quick witted, and wicked rich and sitting in boats,
So every time I travel abroad I've gotta set the records straight,
And represent for all the people who can't afford to flipping go,
I'm just an ordinary bloke amoungst all these different strokes,
Trying to stay afloat without doing no fraud or dealing dope,
Street lights, street life, all a flipping joke,
But I've come up a bit, had a good heart that toughened up a bit,
Look in the mirror kissed the good guy good bye,
Then exchanged my pucker-up lips for a stiff upper lip,
Little rob's jacking, watch him hold'em up with arms,
Kids are getting killed round these sides
And certain role models ain't doing jack but holding up their arms,
And that's just to do peace signs-these times are crazy
[Chorus]
No place for the weak every race is chasing paper seven days of the week,
And the streets just sound like music, 'cause kids care recording criminal records- the police are the beat
The steaks are high and everybody wants to eat
Youths use weapons as ladders to step up on these high streets,
Equals violence, then comes the violins,
Then comes the sirens, then comes the silence,
Life's the best teacher and I'm trying to study hard,
So I can graduate up into the upper class
Front line like queen latifah in set it off,
Take notes like a bank robber in a rubber mask,
Frontline like Chiefa we take while others ask,
Duct tape the rap game, rape the pop world,
Make off take another path, maybe politics,
No mate don't take that for another laugh,

As far as girls go she was my best friend, I go to pick her up but she ain't dressed yet.
I told her that I've cancelled so she ain't prepped yet.
Just so I could surprise you,
Never forget get.
Three days before it happened, we're in the West End.
We're bout to catch a movie, after we just eat.
See we would talk for hours, it's like we just met.
We had a thing before, but now we're just friends.
I told her everything,
She showed me everything,
She told me anything,
I would give anything.
Just to see her smile at me, or just to see her smile at least,
Wake up from her sleep and I expect to see her whine at me.
Because I wasn't there, to tell her not to go into that car that day,
And end up on the road, where that car would crash, but she never lost her soul.
She's in a coma hanging on but she don't wanna go, cause she's a star out here, and yeah she's on a role.
Everybody's praying for her, she ain't on her own.
I just wish that I coulda called her on the phone that day and caused her not to go that day,
And I just wanna know why god would make them, when he knew that he would take 'em young.
Four girls, one died on the scene, her name was patience.
And the rest of them were patient, had everybody pacing up and down the hospital hallways, praying and saying god don't you take them please.
I don't wanna leave, but they won't let me stay.
I wish I had the powers, to take the pain away.
Wipe away the tears, and take the rain away.
Wanna be together forever so I get down and pray.
I don't wanna leave, but they won't let me stay.
I wish I had the powers, to take the pain away.
Wipe away the tears, and take the rain away.
Wanna be together forever so I get down and pray.
The next day, a second girl passes away and her face is pasted all over the myspaces to make it worse.
I didn't know her, but I know her name was D-Crystal.
I know your family miss you, and I can't say the words
To describe this whole scenario, how to say it hurts, is an understatement.
Yeah I'm trying to pray but will the prayers work.
Because we prayed for puff, but god still took him.
But I'm a keep on praying, cause gods still looking.
And Kaya's still sleeping, I wanna wake her up.
But gods still peeping he wants to take her up.
One of the few girls I know that really ain't corrupt,
She called her self the queen of clubs, I call her the queen of hearts.
Tryna reassure her friends, but deep inside my heart would brace.
Don't wanna ask her sister questions or look into her fathers face.
Because I knew there could be news that would be hard to take.
After days of hanging on, sadly Kaya past away.
I don't wanna leave, but they won't let me stay.
I wish I had the powers, to take the pain away.
Wipe away the tears, and take the rain away.
Wanna be together forever so I get down and pray.
I don't wanna leave, but they won't let me stay.
I wish I had the powers, to take the pain away.
Wipe away the tears, and take the rain away.
Wanna be together forever so I get down and pray.
If you got a bit of fire in you, listen.
That means you've got a bit of Kaya in you.
You need to use it to search for something for something higher in you.
And you need to realise there's something higher then you.
If you aim for the stars, they'll start admiring you.
And life's to short to live without the fighter in you.
Prayer moves mountains, so hold up your hands.
Prayer can change your life, but not gods plans.
So I don't wanna leave, but they won't let me stay.
I wish I had the powers, to take the pain away.
Wipe away the tears, and take the rain away.
Wanna be together forever so I get down and pray.
Cause I don't wanna leave, but they won't let me stay.
I really wanna breath but any day could be the day.
When it's your time to go, it's your time to go.
So live your life like you know,

Say you're my kind of girl
Because you're very lovely, because you're very holy
Place no one above you
You're the one that hynoptize me
Got me feeling iray
I think about you all day
She got an African mum, an African dad
But they never let her out
They want her to be bad
They tell her to go to classes
And straight after classes, they tell her to be back
Cause if her daddy ever catches us, it's gonna be a wrap
And I ain't talking about what I'm doing on the track
They want her with a lawyer or anyone who has a suit
Like a doctor, or diplomat, and it's true
Say you're my kind of girl
Because you're very lovely, because you're very holy
Place no one above you
You're the one that hynoptize me
Got me feeling iray
