There's electricity in here
With enough watts to shock the southern hemisphere
I put a surge in your city with my lyrics in the air
Shock hazardous, take caution and beware
Of high bolts and killer hertz, lyrics will kill, they hurt
Blast those, my energy's converted to a rhyme
I maximize in no time
Electrify the sky and go way be over now, uh
Just an MC, I'm not your average MC
I do more than MC, that's what suckers envy, and E
And every movement contains concepts that ain't nobody doin
Come over these dramas or whack, and dirty
They tryin to call me, perform track quality
Give me some punts, 'cause you really muddy
You move slowly 'cause of no electricity
I got my shit on overflow
When I ever find you, my overload
Oh, overflow

We grip the pleasure from small things
Not from a Lex nor diamond rings
I just wanna crib in they studios set
Build my enterprise connection projects
Cover all angles and higher your aspects
Break more barriers than new concepts
'Cause what they can't stop me, no way
The time is now, we ain't got time to play
Hey, you, listen to what I got to say
Let's get together and form a parade
Just delete what you create over plates
Make sure it's measured the right way
With the right ingredients, construct more devient
Things to prosper for your brain to capture
Now what I'm after is to learn from all things
Building full swing, no strings
You got me thinking about things that I don't need to think about
You wanna change my appearance for the masters, scope me out
Undress me, then rearrange me
Yo I can't go for that (No...)
The whole globe's gonna feel the effect of the

While we improvise, giving you time and sensation
Mastering the art of motivation
Musically we're in touch with our creation
Takin over land, and we takin over nation
Family reunite, cause for celebration

Searching for release, yeah right from the start.
Rejuvenation, yeah this is where we meet.
Where we lose all our minds and we stomp our restless feet.
This is where we do this, yeah this is where we run.
This is where we go, where we become one.
Stomping to the beat yeah, rally around the streets yeah.
Screaming through the feedback

Dressed up, whats a movement?
I can't control, I can't confess my fear
I don't don't, everybody has a reason to call them all too young
You cut me off too young
Messed up, am I moving?
I can control, but I can't predict my years
I fall so fast and careless, it's just something I do oh
It's not like we don't know what we're fighting for
Dearly departed
Certain tragedy when we started off
We were such an indestructible team when you had your plans, I had my dream
Lessons that I'm learning, I have the world suspended in my hands
You know we kill it teamed up, just me and you girl
It's not like we don't know what we're fighting for
Dearly departed
Certain tragedy when we started off
We were such an indestructible team when you had your plans, I had my dream
Dearly departed
You know you messed things up, that's how you lost my trust
And now you're lost and it's all because you were not strong enough
With progress we forget
How come this always happens to me?
It's such a sudden tragedy
Hey

Looking out for me slippin'
Switchin' on a steady course
Devoted to emotions and no one even knows it

How come this always happens to me?
It's like a movement from the small place
To a bigger city
Or it's a bigger bag to strap the ego of a little baby
It's like a discipline without the discipline of
All of the discipline
It's like a culture
Without the effort of all the culture
Oh but I'm tapped
Yr pillaging and I'm tapped
Yr yesterday
And I'm tapped
Another reason I'm tapped
It's like a movement
Without the bother of the meaning
It's like a discipline
Without the discipline of all of the discipline
It's like a fat guy in a T-shirt
Doing all the saying
It's like a couple dads and a few friends
Trying hard to stay in
Yr history and I'm tapped
Yr fast and easy 'n I'm tapped
Yr pillaging
And I'm tapped
For best results well I'm tapped
Here comes the report nothing to report see
It's all the same
It seems the punk rock as an experiment well
It pulled up lame
You got the fat guy in the T-Shirt
Doing all the singing
Straight to the drunk tank doing the research 'n
Doing all the blame
Yr history and I'm tapped
Yr fast asleep and I'm tapped
Yr pillaging and I'm tapped
For best results well I'm tapped
It's like the culture
Without the effort or all of the luggage
It's like a discipline
Without the discipline of all of the discipline
It's like a movement
Without the bother of the meaning
It's like a culture
Without the culture of all of the culture
Yr history and I'm tapped
Yr fast'n'easy
And Im tapped
Yr pillaging and I'm tapped
The space between our bodies has been corrupted
The space between our bodies has been corrupted
The people that make the laws and rules for us
They don’t give a fuck about us
Our hearts are being bought
Our minds are being washed
We must interrupt
We must interrupt
We are just a moment away
The space between our bodies has been corrupted
The space between our bodies has been corrupted
Look what we’re doing to the atmosphere
No wonder the kids drug themselves to get out of here
Perpetual motion
Is killing our emotion
So the rich can make a dollar
Make another dollar
We are just a moment away
If it’s not everyone, it will be no one
If it’s not everyone, it will be no one
All my brothers and sisters...
Brothers, sisters...
If you’re turning to go please turn one more time
Cause if you turn away from me it would be such a crime
All my life has been the same and I know much ‘bout hate
and pain
Truth is I can’t stand losing you at all
If you’re turning to go please turn all around
Stay with me a while until you think it out
Cause I love you with out doubt and my heart has figured
it all out
I need your love and your heart so close to mine
I don’t want another girl I just want you
I don’t want another face to tell it to
We have so much time to earn and I got so much more to
learn
I need your love and your heart so close to mine
So if you’re turning to go please turn all around
Stay with me a while until you think it out
All my life has been the same and I know much ‘bout hate
and pain
Truth is I can’t stand loosing you at all
I don’t want another girl I just want you
I don’t want another face to tell it to
We have so much time to earn and I got so much more to
learn
I got a small dream I would like to introduce
To you now cause we’re here and we’re making progress
We could go anywhere we wanted to be
Cause we’re so young but we’re not rich
But we got each other now
It’s so hard to try
Watching all trains leave the station
The world is passing by my window
Sick of all this repetition
Here I am walking by my self again
And I don’t want another girl
It’s so hard to cry
Watching all trains leave the station
The world is passing by my window
Sick of all this repetition
Here I am walking by my self again
And I don’t want another girl
I could give you everything girl that you can choose
I will pick your favourite flowers but what's the use?
Cause when I finally let my feelings known to you
You walk away and say we are through
There so much going on it's all the same
We make love and we break up it's such a shame
I'm so sad about us I feel such pain
I guess I need a little rain
I could kiss you oh so soft girl and hang around
I will be there if you need me at any time
Why do you complicate everything we got?
To you it's freedom to me it's not
There so much going on it's all the same
We make love and we break up it's such a shame
I'm so sad about us I feel such pain
I guess I need a little rain
A little rain to wash away the streets
A little rain to get me on my feet
A little rain just a little rain
There so much going on it's all the same
We make love and we break up it's such a shame
We make love and we break up it's such a shame
We make love and we break up it's such a shame
I guess I need a little rain
A little rain just a little rain
Revolutionary workers and writers with books
She is painting a picture of brothers and sisters working together
Cause she is so proud to deal with this whole world as it comes to her
She puts our working class so high
You won't regret it You won't regret it no! You won't regret it girl
Comrades on dope believing it's already through
She still painting her picture cause she knows what to do
If we get rid of their lise get rid of their truth
Get rid of a system that failed
And we start building up as we kick them down
With colours so bright they will always unite
I want you to stay with me just a little bit longer
You won't regret it if you do
You won't regret it You won't regret it no! You won't regret it if you do
I don't want this little life
I wanna do what I want do what I got to do
Revolutionary workers and writers with books
She is painting a picture of brothers and sisters working together
I want you to stay with me just a little bit longer
You won't regret it if you do
All the crap all the lies that they telling you
And all the things that you don't really wanna do
You're pushed in to it man you wanna quit
Loneliness' don't really mean a thing
We leaned to live with it we got it under our skin
If that's the way then you never win
And all my wasted youth
Emotionally crippled under the laws of hypocrite's
They proved it all by giving us nothing
That doesn't make it right
That doesn't make it fucking right
But then again we got a government
I'm not ashamed to say its not another friend
That is away of oppression you
All the crap all the lies that they telling you
And all the things that you don't really wanna do
You're pushed in to it man you wanna quit
And all my wasted youth
Emotionally crippled under the laws of hypocrite's
They proved it all by giving us nothing
That doesn't make it right
That doesn't make it fucking right
Lack of morality police brutality
There's Only One Thing You Can Do
Get Up And Be There
Or Fall Right Down And You Will Die
They Dance On Your Grave
The Way They Made You
Is The Way They Want To Keep You Down
They Wont Allow You To Be True.
We're Just Another Empty Spot
But They Can Afford It
Stand Proud Look Nice
Listening To What They Have To Tell You
You Work Hard From The Start
Never Ask That Question Why
The Many Slaving For The Few
And What's Inside Of You
Waiting For Something That Could Make It Happen
Thinking, Wasting, All This Life For Nothing
Get Up Off Your Bed
And Generate Your Dreams Instead
They Don't Give A Damn About You
They Don't Give A Damn About You
They Don't Give A Damn About You
They Don't Give A Fuck Around You
But We Need You To Generate This Generation!
There's Only One Thing You Can Do
Get Up And Be There
Or Fall Right Down And You Will Die
They Dance On Your Grave
The Way They Made You
Is The Way They Want To Keep You Down
They Won´t Allow You To Be True
To What's Inside You
Waiting For Something That Could Make It Happen
Thinking, Wasting, All This Life For Nothing
If you don't know what to do
Well I say use your voices
We struggle just the same
For the right to be human
I hear children crying
Take them home
They live in fear around the world.
You know what I mean
When you hear pathetic racist bastards
Telling lies about what you know is true
Take your blinkers off
Show it to the world
It's up to you!
Turn away your faces from the crowd
Turn away your faces from the crowd
Turn away your faces from the crowd
There's blood in every street
Majority is struggling
The earthly gods come down hard
On you who doesn't own a thing
You know what I mean
When you hear pathetic racist bastards
Telling lies about what you know is true
Take your blinkers off
Show it to the world
It's up to you!
Turn away your faces from the crowd
Turn away your faces from the crowd
Truth is we need to organize
Alone here in the dirt
Silence can't be heard
Fight back
Don't let them swallow up your mind
With their money making tricks
And their dirty politics
Let's go
Freedom's never cheap you know
Get out on the street
We're moving to the beat
Right wing and fascist
Conservatives and classists
Sponsored by the rich man
Protected by police men
Hey, hey, monkey man whacha gonna do now?
You livin' in a tin can suckin' on balloon now
Hey, hey, funky tan thought you gotta prove how
You givin' in to flim flam, fuckin' on the moon now
Me-oh-my-oh monkey man
You think you gotta live it up
I think you've got a funky plan
I think you better give it up
Hey, hey, monkey man whacha gonna do now?
You livin' in a tin can, suckin' on balloon now
Chorus:
You threw it all away
You threw it all away
Crouched in the corner of your filthy cage
Lookin' like a rocker just like Jimmy Page
Mr. Homo Sapien I do not like the shape you're in
I do not like the things you do
I don't know what to tell you too
You drive around in big cigars
Smokin' on your foreign cars
You're burnin' dinosaurs for fuel
You shop in rhino stores for jewels
Me-oh-my-oh monkey man
You think you gotta live it up
I think you've got a funky plan
I think you better give it up
Hey, hey, monkey man whacha gonna do now?
You livin' in a tin can, fuckin' on the moon now
(Chorus)
Hey, hey, monkey man whacha gonna do now?
You livin' in a tin can suckin' on balloon now
Hey, hey, funky tan thought you gotta prove how
You givin' in to flim flam, fuckin' on the moon now
Me-oh-my-oh monkey man
You think you gotta live it up
I think you've got a funky plan
I think you better give it up
Hey, hey, monkey man whacha gonna do now?
You livin' in a tin can, fuckin' on the moon now
You bought your politicians
You bought the best police
You build another wall
There must be more to life than all this shit
We vote for something 2nd time
The first NO! really wasn't right
But you don't care for nothing
Cause money talks and money made your world
They think they're so clever
The rich think they're so right
They say it is no time to fight
There's still an echo
Of all the young kids falling in the streets
Shot down by the police
And justified in all high places
But they can never keep us down
I see their faces on the news
I see how TV's making truth
Majority's confused
Believing all the lies they telling you
There's still an echo
Of all the young kids falling in the streets
Shot down by the police
And justified in all high places
You don't know my world
You don't know my kind
I never share my feelings
And I got no time
Do you want this boy?
Do you want this girl?
Do you take all your chances
Cause you play it safe
In all the little things you do
If you want your life
Then put yourself at stake
You don't know my thoughts
You don't see my heart
I never seek reaction
So it's not my fault
Is your life in vain?
Do you want to change
So you can make difference
Yeah!
Cause you play it safe
In all the little things you do
If you want your life
I wanna help my people
They are down and need my song
I wanna join the rebels
And free this country once for all
The rich enjoy the laws they make
They turn the people against their own
Shouldn't we conquer our lives back?
And fight for what the young kids have
One-way culture
One-way street
Some will suffer
Some will eat
"My son, you frightened me
I don't know you anymore"
"But I'm a man now can't you see
And life no longer wait for me"
We will buy liberty with blood
The one-way culture must be stopped
I am young and I belong to strength and
Hope for life itself
One-way culture
One-way street
Some will suffer
Ten thousand people fighting you
Doesn't mean to say they're right
One million people loving you
Doesn't mean give up the fight
Are you still making up your mind?
I feel I'm losing you
The ideals still here to be true
I feel I'm losing you
We could work and we could try
I feel I'm losing you
Unable to feel unity
To me it's like you've lost your heart
You're talking about your company
While people 'dying all the time
Are you still making up your mind?
I feel I'm losing you
The ideals still here to be true
I feel I'm losing you
We could work and we could try
When ever I'm with you
Something inside makes me wonder
How you make me feel so right
Every thing's groovy
When you're around
If this is love don't make it stop
Or I go down
I need you
'Cause under sad and lonely circumstances
I underestimate my life
I need you
When I approach you with my loneliness
Whatever you may be like.
Whoever came here first?
Was it you or was it us?
You can´t get enough.
You control the money
and the soldiers, too.
What if I show you something new?
More than just a point of view.
There´s a battle raging on the high street.
Don´t you read the writing on the concrete?
Get pissed, have some fun.
Get laid by everyone.
You gonna break some bones.
You gonna feel alone.
Come on boy, come on girl.
Everything is in this world.
Some feels bad, some feels good.
It´s your time and you got to go your own way.
TV entertainment - your brain is unemployed.
You can never judge what´s right and there will be no light.
You control the money
and the soldiers, too.
What if I show aou something new?
More than just a point of view.
Get pissed, have some fun.
Get laid by everyone.
You gonna break some bones.
Come on down to my street
Where everybody looks so sweet
Girls passing by so beautiful
They’re walking down my street
The boys are playing up now
With leather jackets and cigarettes
They know how it is to be young
They’re fighting on my street
We’re alive with the music
In every heart and soul

We fight for what we stand for

Oh that star in my sky
Oh I said please, lift your head up baby
Please don't be so shy
My heart
My head
My only regret
To let it show
Is it me or is it you
Playtime is over
The show is begun
The storyteller's in the building babies throw up your ones
The shogun
The new school dropping the bomb rap attacking the masses have em kissing my con
The beat drops
The knees knock
The rest is history the coolest lyrics coming off the lips
I'm listerine
16, sicker than you after a fifth of Jim beam
Type of track to piss the parents off
Make the kids scream
It seems
Finally my dream's about to take off
Fighting tooth and nail to find the route to rock your face off dog
Reach the finish line
I ain't even done yet
I'm re-raising the bar
Spitting these lyrical gun threats
So come test
The up and coming undisputed champion
Leave with a nose bleed
And a mouthful of ambien
Sleeping
Wide awake waiting to take over
Honey hush that fuss
Playtime is over
My heart
My head
My only regret
To let it show
Is it me or is it you
My heart
My head
My only regret
To let it show
Is it me or is it you
I'm on my way
I'll write home everyday
And I'll call you on the phone
So you'll never feel alone

Pass it on the music blasts and lasts the night long
Live for the sea and be eternally
In the morning when I wake up /

To open up your eyes to see /
That the party, it be jumpin /
And the music, it be bumpin /
And you know who the movement be /
CHORUS:

To open up your eyes to see /
That the party, it be jumpin /
And the music, it be bumpin /
And you know who the movement be /

And not having somebody take away my natural right /
To act accordingly /
It's important we getting 'em hype /
And the only murdering going on is me killing this mic
That's the single solitary most positive bit of spittin
That I could possibly give to prohibit emptying clips
in the mix /
The rhythms is hitting, the music is hot /
You knocking your head back and forth to the shit /
Giving it what you got /
You know I got a habit it ain't gonna lead nowhere
Except to the many legions of the people with a problem
But nobody cares
'Cause all I do is
Sit and dream about drinkin and women and music
It's just gonna
Give me another reason to use and abuse it
But still I gottaI live and I learn all I wanna do is burn down
And so I light it up
I live and I learn all I wanna do is burn
You know I got alot of wrongs to right
I been fightin, lying, cheatin on you every night
I got a habit yo I'm bad at it but it's alright
'Cause in the end I wanna be the one holding you tight
But I got to hold on make way
I said the drinking and the women and the music got me crazy
But I'm addicted
Uplifted, now I just can't stop
Yo she's all that I need
Steal from 'em when you're late for rent
Knowin' when you get it that it's dated, spent
But still you keep on tickin never watchin the game
And every day your livin seems almost the same
Got to keep you head up, hard to breathe down there
At the bottom of the ocean baby nobody cares
But you keep on rollin when they keep on reelin
And if you catch the sun
You know you might catch that feelin
But you
You never know when that feelin may go
And sometimes
You'll never realize the fire in your eyes
You may never ever walk in another man's shoes
But still you gotta
Taken the time find your mind
Find a reason to choose
Give to 'em when they want they need
Steppin on the other side watch ya feet
But still ya see G.L.A.S.S.
When you're cut you bleed
And everybody knows
You can't believe what you read
Got to step aside if ya wrong ya wrong
But if you turn the other cheek
Would we all get along
It's the same question
We all keep crying
Or do you know the answer
And we all keep denying
But you
6 billion in the world today
People fighting and their fussing
Earth rottin away
Now it's gotten to the point and I was wantin to say
Take a minute stop, relax and pause and pray
You can't dance with the devil in the pale moon light
Who's wrong, who's right, you
I don't wanna fight you
Wanna stand tall, gotta be the role model
But it's hard to find the answer in the bottom of a bottle
But you/
Let's shed a little light on this situation
I got nothing left, but the time I'm wasting.
I got nothing left to give but the flavor you're tasting
Trying to run fast but the rats are racing
And I'm chasing these dreams like I'm chasing these papes
Like I'm chasing the times that are changing your fate
All you need is a lil elbow grease when you're scraping by trying to rise rise til you scrape the sky
So pick me up pick me up get high, high
Went sailin on a voyage
Over through the mountain and the sea
Heard the music that was comin with originality
Seen the waves
And when they're crashin with the perfect melody
That's the reason
That I'm chillin with my girl down by the beach
I got my lover, got my stereo
It's all that really matters
When you're thinkin about it all
I got my guitar and I got someplace to go
And that's the reason I'm chillin
On a Sunday afternoon in Mexico
In Mexico
Down in Mexico it goes something like...
The day is coming when people from the west to the east
Gonna be livin in harmony the war is gonna cease
Everybody all they want is just a little bit of peace
That's the reason that I'm chillin when I'm diving off the reef
I got my brother and I got my stereo
It's all that really matters
When you're thinkin about it all
And how come all the people there already know
And that's the reason I'm chillin
On a Sunday afternoon in Mexico
Yo we the biggest and the baddest most happenest rappers
Keeping it clapping, moving and shaking/ Bending and breaking their backs
So when they hear it
It draws them closer
Like it's supposed to
Be the only thing they know
That ain't never keeping them sober
So intoxicated, we levitated from the get go
And when it hits you feel no pain
Never wanting to let go
So breathe slow, in and out
'Cause that's what it's all about
Time to hear the music let me hear you shout
Karl Marx Friedrich Engels one manifesto oh so simple
Joe Hill Angela Davis they worked so hard just to safe us
And all our history this is our history
Hey man you think is funny the boss is wasting all your
money
Truth is you can’t deny we’re struggling hard with so
much pride
And all our dignity will change our history
Right here right now in this very moment
We’re around and we’re alive
Can’t you see what is going on here
Rebellion is the way of life
Karl Marx Friedrich Engels one manifesto oh so simple

Truth is you can’t deny we’re struggling hard with so
much pride
And all our dignity will change our history
Right here right now in this very moment

Can’t you see what is going on here
Whoa, once upon a time not long ago
When the fire burned right and the children ...
And the people of the world came together for one more dance
And as we stood our foot on the solid ground, we shook the earth so hard
That the stars fell down
And ... and there, we have the chance
Uh, and every time I think about your love, how you move that way
I get down on my knees and I pray
I got something to say, oh, oh, help me sing it now
and come together, if it's wrong or it's right
If it's black or it's white
I got something to say, oh, oh, help me sing it now
I got something, I got something
I got something to say, something to say
Whoa, once I found a place not far away
Where the shoes kicked off and the children played
And the people of the world came together for one more dance
And as we were bouncing on the lunar ground
We shook the moon so hard the universe fell down
And ... and there, we have the chance
I get down on my knees and I pray
I got something to say, oh, oh, help me sing it now
and come together, if it's wrong or it's right
If it's black or it's white
I got something to say, oh, oh, help me sing it now
I got something, I got something
I got something to say, something to say, let's go
You got a feeling tonight, gotta be feeling alright
Coming together as one, whether it's black or it's white
Putting down all of your guns, ... up all of your ones
... daughters and sons.
You got a feeling tonight, gotta be feeling alright
Coming together as one, whether it's black or it's white
Should be the way of the world
Man it's a beautiful world,
I got something to say, oh, oh, help me sing it now
and come together, if it's wrong or it's right
If it's black or it's white
I got something to say, oh, oh, help me sing it now
I got something, I got something
I got a feeling got no time ya see /
To hear ya fussin and fightin whining why ya see /
I know it's gonna be alright /
Get some wine the sea /
Will soothe and make the mind move silently /
I know it's gonna be alright /
Got my paper and my pen together /
Can't be confused 'cause I'm flyin high in any weather
Got so much soul yes you know I cannot be no better /
Now everybody get ya grind on /
Yo from beginning to ending my chapter's flipping and
spinning /
While I'm catering to nonsense / Setting tables of
contents /
Over continents, deserts, oceans, and landmasses /
Spreading like jam /
To make you and your honey shake them asses, damn /
I'm looking sharp /
Steadily sticking like bookmarks /
Heavily written spitting sentences /
Showing off book smarts /
Smarter than a fucking whip /
Cool as a fan /
You feeling alright /
Sing it if you know what I'm sayin /
CHORUS:
'Cause it just goes to show that you just may never
know /
'Cause when it rains it pours just another episode /
And now I hope you know this is how the story goes /
I wasduced to the white girl
I wasduced to the green girl
I wasduced to the yellow haired
Polka dotted fly triple stack
Twenty-five dollar bill girl
I'mduced to the brown girl
I wasduced to the paper girl
I wasduced the liquid form
Come on now stick it where it's warm baby
Just don't turn away
I hear the music and I feel the soul
Now get your green together
Cause it's time to roll
I know the color's swirlin acid takin its toll
But if you wanna be free
Well you can never go home
Cause I refuse to take the time
Not to lay it on the line
White girl get it from the front
Green girl take it from behind
With all this shit, from all I've seen
Nothing or something, it's all green
It's dedicated to the lady who kept me up in the night time
Enabled me to write rhymes
And hit me with them white lines
And high times, better for sure know I'm down till the casket falls
While I'm blowing reefer rings of smoke
The size of basketballs
And I got the method if you want it come and get it
I bet it will be the most unregrettable chemical ever
Making you feel like you was sittin' on top of the world
And giving props to all of my colors and all of my girls
So much in a name
How could I ever bear witness to a man
Who comes running down to the other side of reason
And jumps up with a gun in his hand
How could I ever solemnly swear to no end
That the man that I was seeing
The man that I saw was bleeding
Was leading me to the promise land
I said now hold on
How could I ever scream to the top of my lungs
Without making a noise I'm not taking a voice
I ain't sounding like every other one
How could I ever dare to close my eyes
Open up another side
Find time
Just take it as it comes and leave it a surprise
I said now hold on
No way, no how
Music is the only way I throw down
But I want to know now
How could I go down with you
How could I ever stand firm on your solid ground
And rise up to the fear
Never holding my ear when the roaring of the canon sounds
You fire one shot
It never touch my body
How could I ever be so sincere
We never runnin, never duckin
From the gunman
And the words ring so clear
Now and they say
Got a little story for you
But if all the people
They stop listening
Then what can anybody do
I've got a story for you
Are you listening
People wanna touch us
Wanna take us
Wanna rush us
But they never gonna shake our sound
They fake it and we make it
Strip us down naked
But can they ever break us down
I don t mind well I don t mind just take your time
There s a choice for everyone who s making noise
But I m just a lonely boy and you re that kind of girl
Who try so hard to make it in this world
And we re holding on we got to be so strong
I see your face as it lights up the human race
You should care cause I would love to bring you there
But I m a lonely boy and you re that kind of girl
And we re holding on we got to be so strong
Just let the boat get rocked we re using all the power we
To make this planet free I have revolutionary sympathies
I don t mind well I don t mind just take your time
There s a choice for everyone who s making noise
But I m a lonely boy and you re that kind of girl
Who try so hard to make it in this world
I said I woke up hung over on the weekend /
Slept my days away /
It's 3:30 in the p.m. dreaming of the words I wish I
could say /
And so I was thinking everything was just right smooth
Thinking that you was in just the right mood but /
All along I'm rolling 'round in the wrong /
'Cause I never got no call from you /
Alright /
Now tell me what it was I was supposed to do /
I was wasted away in my head /
Was it the rose petaling or the door opening or a
little love letter instead /
And indeed I couldn't read between the lines no /
I'm feeling a bit confused /
But I said now what to do /
When I finally get the message clear /
It's just a sweet goodbye from you /
CHORUS:
I was under the impression /
That we was doing it right /
I said I woke up in the mornin on a weekday /
Had this feelin in my head /
I rolled over and under my covers /
Was a strange girl layin in my bed /
Come on two years later she's sayin she loves me /
I really don't know just what to do /
I feel like I love her but under my covers /
I'll never say goodbye to you /
I said now could you run it by me just one more time /
I really wasn't sure of what you said /
I was too busy getting caught up in the lies /
From the sweet other side of my bed /
I said now I could never imagine or even possibly
fathom /
The day that you would turn away /
But I realize that when you're walking /
And I'm doing all the talking /
That you never had no words to say /
We’re moving on to a new direction we gotta take a stand
Between the big time corporations we’re running out of
hands
What can we do about it?
There’s something happening between our lives something
happens fast
With simple houses simple jobs and pay checks the hour’s
running late
Let’s globalize our hate
There’s so much more products for all of us to discover
Like freedom and culture and taking care of each other
There’s something happening between our lives something
happens fast
With simple houses simple jobs and pay checks the hour’s
running late
Let’s globalize our hate
There’s so much more products for all of us to discover
Got a message on the phone today
All they had to say
My summertime it had gone away
Make room for the winter
It will be okay
But when the sun goes down
It turns my smile to a frown
I can't stop spinnin all around
I wanna fall to the ground
But we all must walk this road sometimes
Yes we all must walk this road sometimes
We cryAs we waitin' for the sweet summertime
Yes it's so sublime
Grab the tequila don't forget the lime
Put your name on my bottle
So I know you're mine
(repeat)
When the snow's gone, melted away
All I have to say is
When you feel it you just got to play
Hear the reggae music and you feel okay
And when you're in the sweet sunshine
When you see that sign
Feel the rays of the sun on your face
And you know that you'll be just fine
I found a message in the bottle
I don't know if it's mine
And now I'm searching for the meaning
Looking in between the lines
While I'm reading every letter
And I'm staring at the sign
Searching for a piece of that sweet summertime
I wanna be it
Wanna believe it
I wanna open up my eyes I wanna see it
I wanna feel it in my soul, heart, body, and mind
Went sailin on a voyage
Over through the mountain and the sea
I heard the music that was comin with originality
I heard the waves
And when they're crashin with the perfect melody
Well that's the reason That I'm chillin with my girl down by the beach
I got my lover, I got my stereo/
It's all that really matters
When you're thinking about it all
I got my guitar and I got someplace to go
And that's the reason I'm chllin on a Sunday afternoon
In Mexico
I got my lover and I see her under moonlight on the shore
I'm feelin so good I don't know if I can take it anymore
And that's the reason I'm chillin on a Monday morning
In Ocho Rios
Biding my time
We landed on an island brimming with the possibility
That I would one day see beyond
The lonely mountain and the sea
I heard a guitar it was playin with the perfect melody
And that's the reason
That I'm chillin with my girl down by the beach
Biding my time
We sailin on a voyage over to the sea
And suddenly I feel the music
As it's coming over me
And once again it's happening to be the best thing I can sea
The more I see the shore
The more I feel like it was meant to be
And so I roll with the rip tide
I hit you with the hip glide
I dive right into the sea and see you on the flipside
Searching for the perfect hottest burning beach around
Nowhere to be found
I got something on my way I do take chances
It’s fucking more than you can say about what’s going on
I got something mate I got nothing straight
You just need to do what’s right you don’t take chances
What will you get out of life you just seem so dead
I got something mate I got nothing straight
You are just so bored and lonely
To me it’s something ‘bout reality
To me it’s something ‘bout morality
To me it’ something ‘bout a way to be
We don’t care and we go there cause we don’t mind
I got something on my way I do take chances
It’s fucking more than you can say about what’s going on
I got something mate I got nothing straight
You are just so bored and lonely
To me it’s something ‘bout reality
To me it’s something ‘bout morality
To me it’ something ‘bout a way to be
We don’t care and we go there cause we don’t mind
To me it’s something ‘bout reality
To me it’s something ‘bout morality
I wanna take you all and push you down
Cause we’re still around and we go there
Tell me where you going and where you been
Take me away from the world I'm in
Cause when it's filled with sin, crime, strife, and danger
And everybody seems a little bit stranger
I can't seem to find my right of way, I say
It's getting harder every day, in every way
It's hard to explain how I feel, but I know the feeling is real
Whenever my ship sets sail, I'll be on the shore
Dancing with the ocean like I never did before
And watch it as it comes and goes
'Cause I know that someone knows
This is the life for me
And whenever my ship sets sail
I'll be on the beach
Waltzing to the water with the sand beneath my feet
So I can watch another sunrise
You know I can't deny
This is the life for me, the life for me
Whenever my ship sets sail
The water be my daughter
Take it all away, leave me waiting for the slaughter
After the fact it's that this is my habitat
This is the life for me
And wherever the water runs deep
You are not alone
Look up in the sky, let the stars take you home
After the fact it's that, this life is where it's at
This is the life for me
Tell me where you going and where you been
Take me away from the world I'm in
Cause when I'm giving in to all the pain and pressure
And everybody out there is coming to get you
I'll never let them come and take my soul away, I say
It's getting harder everyday, in every way
It's hard to explain how I feel but I know the feeling is real
Everybody, all the time
Everybody, get right now
Everybody, all the time
Have you ever loved someone so bad it hurt
Not when they seem so far away from your life and all of this world
Was it that someone who brought you away
Was she a little baby girl your perfect number ten
How did you meet her, how did you know
All of the troubles that you face and the distance you would go
Just to please her and ease her pain
No matter how hard you try things won't ever be the same
And its the hardest thing I've ever had to do
And its the hardest thing I've ever had to say
And I cant remember the last time we touched
But I know it was right as rain and I couldn't get enough
How did we get here and where we gonna go
Now that we seem so far away from the love we used to show
And It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do
And it's the hardest thing I've ever had to say
And now its time to turn the page
Another day come and gone a way to waste
And now we face the truest test of our faith
And I don't believe I don't believe it
And now its time to turn the page
Another day come and gone a way to waste
And now we face the truest test of our faith
And I don't believe I don't believe it
It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do
How many nights can I hold up shouting words of love to get me away from here?
Get me back to something more than fear.
Smoke lines salt the heart of this my lifes on hold you'll have to get me away from here.
Get me back to something worth the fear.
I'm screaming raw and cold and every city takes its toll.
And I am falling away, falling away from here
So bring me back this wave you'll take it away.
take it in vain I hope you pick and choose how I unfold. across everything but your home away from here.
Get me back to something more than fear.
have you ever felt chilled to the bone? see my breath hang from your hope away from here.
Get me back to something.
And I am falling away, falling away from here
so bring me back this wave you'll take it away
take it in vain I hope you learn.
I am finding a way to feel past coughing up my part.
at least it's a start, a start to something my own way.
And we have all become so ageless and senseless we drink from the same cup.
I'll call you out for sighing again and we'll make our own list of new demands I'm the ruling hand when it comes to my words I shoot from the chest.
I'm a scribe I'm a student, a writer, a movement and I'm suited best for tying ends.
And I am falling away, falling away from here
so bring me back this wave you'll take it away
take it in vain I hope you learn.
I am finding a way to feel past coughing up my part.
Movement in the trees
And movement of the pendulum
Moving up the scale
We'll tango to the dance beat
Movement in the heart
And action on the battleground
Moving in the circles
Pushing through the crowd
Hey baby we're moving
Hey baby we're moving
Caught up in the scheme
Mixed up in a moving dream
Music in the motion
Rhythm just repeats, repeats
Echoes multiply
And waves of sound are lost in space
Motion of the wheels
And pulling of the strings
Hey, hey baby we're moving
Hey, hey baby we're moving
Moving to the music
Music and the avant garde
Moving out of reach
Well, can't get back you've gone too far
Justify the motion
Quicken up the dance beat
Movement in the heart
And movement in the feet
Hey, hey baby we're moving
Hey, hey baby we're moving
Hey, hey baby we're moving
Hey, hey baby we're moving
Control your temper
'cause we got something that you wanted to be
Control your temper
But then you realize nothing is free
Control your temper
'cause we got everything you wanted to be
Control your temper
But then you realize
We got so much can't get enough
'cause we're so free
We got something
We got everything
'cause we're so free
Control your temper
'cause we got something that you wanted to be
Control your temper
But then you realize nothing is free
Control your temper
'cause we got everything you wanted to be
Control your temper
But then you realize
We got so much can't get enough
'cause we're so free
We're so fucked up
We can't get it up
'cause we're so free
We got something
We got everything
How come greedy hands influence so many lives?
How come you still on their side?
How come you still say you believe in something else?
How come you still run away?
It just don't matter much it doesn't mean a thing
It doesn't matter any more it just don't mean a thing
Cause now you all on your own.
How come you still here you who killed so many dreams?
Respected by authorities.
It was a choice I made when I turned away from you
How come you change from red to blue?
It just don't matter much it doesn't mean a thing
It doesn't matter any more it just don't mean a thing
Cause now you all on your own.
