Hold me hold me hold me hold me hold me

What's the use of someone else
Loving you?
But if you don't love yourself
What's the use of someone else
Loving you?
So put down your hands
Pick up your head

Bitches sippin bubbly and drinkin thug passion

This hundred-and-one round drum take up half the
Trunk so punk, we gon' tear up this club faster

And if you get on then we can use you
From 7 and Woodward to 7 and Telly - the West side
Where niggaz with 'Cardis, weapons in Pelle's – yes ma
From 7 and Woodward to 7 and Kelly – the East side
It's murder; from Kelly and further

You wake up from your dreamin' and you don't want to face the day
You can't find a reason to think your world will ever change
You can hide beneath the covers
Or you can run outside, head up high and carry on
Life is a roller coaster ride
Time turns the wheel and love collides
Faith is believing you can close your eyes and touch the sky
To shine while you have the chance to shine
Laugh even when you want to cry
Hold on tight to what you feel inside and ride
It brings you up slowly then shoots you like a rocket towards the ground
It twists you and it shakes you before it turns you upside down
You can't see what's around the corner
And you can't look back, so just live it up and feel the rush
Life is a roller coaster ride
Time turns the wheel and love collides
Faith is believing you can close your eyes and touch the sky
So shine while you have the chance to shine
Laugh even when you want to cry
Hold on tight to what you feel inside and ride
Ride, ride, yeah
Oh yeah, shine while you have the chance to shine
Laugh even when you want to cry
Hold on tight to what you feel inside and ride
Ride, ride, yeah, yeah
Alright
Take a trip from here
Bogalusa, Baton Rouge,
New Orleans, Picayune,
Boloxi, Pascagoula,
Mobile Bay,Big full moon
Diesel up just north of Destin
Headed cross to Jacksonville
Love to see the world come at me
Through the bugs
On a big windshield
Yeah, that's right
Tear it down in Raleigh-Durham
Haven't got an hour to lose
Head up to the coast to Virginia
Read the newest Newport News
Back across the Appalachians
Blowin' into Louisville
Love to feel the big wheels turnin'
Always have and always will
Somewhere inside me
There's a new direction
Somewhere before me
There's an open road
Can't go to sleep
Without that diesel singin'
Somebody tellin' me
It's time to go
Let's ride
Come on boys, let's ride
Come on boys, let's ride
Little Rock, Texarkana,
Dallas, Fort-Worth and El Paso
110 in the desert
Pedal down
Go dog go
Always love to see the people
Always love to hear the crowd
Always love to bring a party
Turn it up and play it loud
Somewhere inside me
There's a new direction
Somewhere before me
There's an open road
Can't go to sleep
Without that diesel singin'
Somebody tellin' me
It's time to go
Let's ride
Come on boys, let's ride
Let's ride like the wind
I'll be back again
As sure as this world's spins around
One day I might find a reason
To shut this thing down
But for now
Let's ride
Somewhere inside me
There's a new direction
Somewhere before me
There's an open road
Can't go to sleep
Without that diesel singin'
Somebody tellin' me
Tell me, it's time to go
Let's ride
Come on boys, let's ride
Come on boys, let's ride
Yeah
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
And if I die before I awake
I hope the Lord won't hesitate
To pluck my coffin from the ground
(I need a ride)
He need not heed the neighbors now
And throw me up for all to see
The flies of August swarming me
I get a ride
(I need a ride)
Ninety-eight-point-five
Under your skin, I'm digging in
I get a ride
(I need a ride)
Ninety-eight-point-five
Under your skin, I'm digging in
Well, I don't know, but I've been told
The road to Heaven is paved with gold
And if I die before I awake
I need a ride
(I need a ride)
I need a ride
I need a ride inside
I need a ride
(I need a ride)
I need a ride
I need a ride from you
Sticks and stones can break my bones
And boys can make me kick and moan
But when I want it auto-drive
I get a ride
(I need a ride)
I get a ride
I get a ride inside
I get a ride
(I need a ride)
Get a ride
I get a ride from you
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
And if I die before I awake
I hope the Lord won't hesitate
To pluck my coffin from the ground
(I need a ride)
He need not heed the neighbors now
And throw me up for all to see
The flies of August swarming me
I get a ride
(I need a ride)
Ninety-eight-point-five
Positive t-cell regeneration
Regeneration, regeneration
(It has no motives, No limits, It can't hurt, Can it? See what it is.)
I tried to see the one that's free,
Now it's gone,
I tried to hear the one that's near,
Move along,
I tried to feel the one that's real,
Is it wrong?
I tried to take to one that makes,
Now it's gone,
Innocent and wounded, baby,
Educated Horses, baby,
Distant kings surrounding, baby,
Imitation of life, baby,
RIDE!
Dirty, sweet, and filthy,
RIDE!
Beat your hands on me,
This is where the ghosts hide,
Now it's gone,
This is where the truth lies,
Move along,
This is where the dirt flies,
Is it wrong?
Up against the mud skies,
Now it's gone,
Innocent and wounded, baby,
Educated Horses, baby,
Distant kings surrounding, baby,
Imitation of life, baby,
RIDE!
Dirty, sweet, and filthy,
RIDE!
Beat your hands on me,
RIDE!
Dirty, sweet, and filthy,

I wanna hold onto nothing and ride
Like the cinnamon girl
Like a butterfly
Just hold onto nothing

We gonn' make sure anybody out there breathin gonn' be bleedin
Everybody out there leakin then we leavin
We get away, car parked in a dark alley
Just cut up thru the yard, hop a fence then we at it
We off to the next block, catch me if you can
Gunpowder on my shirt and some blood on my hands
Never thought i'd see the day that i'd be killin me a man
This here for 50's enemies to make em understand that
(Chorus)
Even tho we killed one and we aint done yet
We ridin on these muthaf**kas soon as the sun set
Gangsta with it, homie you know how i do
This just a lil somethin you can let off ya glock to
Even tho we killed one and we aint done yet
We ridin on these muthaf**kas soon as the sun set
Gangsta with it, homie you know how i do
This just a lil somethin you can let off ya chopper to
(Verse 2)
Clip in the Smith & Wesson
And i done been shot but i aint learn my lesson
I bought me some band-aids and hand grenades
And i'd pull the pin and throw it where ya family stay
This the hood muthaf**ka not Sandro Pay
You hear the police sirens all god damn day
We huntin for our prey, if we see em we eat em
And f**k the D.A., they aint takin my freedom
So when you make this turn, ima let off this thang
Retaliating on them bitches like Hugh did Kane
Insane, im the black John Wayne
With a chrome Fo-Fo, put a hole in ya frame
Detectives found em with his watch and his chain
And some money in his pocket, a bullet in his brain
Never thought i'd see the day that i'd be killin me a man
This here for Yayo enemies to make em understand what im sayin is
(Chorus )
Even tho we killed one and we aint done yet
We ridin on these muthaf**kas soon as the sun set
Gangsta with it, homie you know how i do
This just a lil somethin you let ya fo-five off to
Even tho we killed one and we aint done yet
We ridin on these muthaf**kas soon as the sun set
Gangsta with it, homie you know how i do
This just a lil somethin you let ya 12-gauge off to
(Verse 3)
I'd be lyin if i say i wasnt nervous the first time
But thinkin how they shot my cousin, i just bust mine
Hard people glance, glock under my waist
This big fat ass officer aint gonn' win this chase
Im paranoid but i got away clean
And i dont be havin all them nightmare dreams
They say i have no conscience, my heart just cold
'cause i dont try to squash it, ya boy just roll
We hold niggas hostage, ya kid now hosed
The news to this game man we play how it goes
The feds know my name so i stay on the low
Every murder that go down they knockin at my door
Gotta know what you doin and how to shuffle it out
And once the homie go do it he gotta muzzle his mouth
I never thought i'd see the day that i'd be killin me a man
This here for Banks enemies to make em understand what im sayin is
(Chorus )
Even tho we killed one and we aint done yet
We ridin on these muthaf**kas soon as the sun set
Gangsta with it, homie you know how i do
This just a lil somethin you let ya Tec 9 off to
Even tho we killed one and we aint done yet
We ridin on these muthaf**kas soon as the sun set
Gangsta with it, homie you know how i do
[Intro]
Yeah, Firing Squad nigga. Teflon. Salute
[Hook: x1.5]
I got a ride
You got a ride
We got a ride, that hit up from both sides
[Verse One]
Yo, it's the way of the world, right
And can't nobody change, the way that nigga Williams does his thang
You see, I done stomped on 37 beats
And I'm still stuck in the core of the streets (nigga)
That's me, voted, most likely to squeeze (blahaw)
Now I'm worth 6 hundered G's
Ghetto warfare, heavy metal warfare
Plus I got all my motherfuckin' thugs here
First Family style buck ass wild Danz the rapid fire empire expands
And, shortie take notice, my shit sold
(Never went gold), but fuck it I'm still dope (broke)
Don't pretend to be no millionaire
I'm makin' dust somewhere, in the 7th coll on the third tear (yeah)
See that's my destiny, although
We know none of the wack niggas is touchin' me so...
[Hook]
[Verse Two]
M.(blahaw)O.(blahaw)P.(will rock) what we bring (real rap)
What you want (hip hop) here it is (feel that)
Roll with me, on this hip hop journey
I represent mine and whatever consern me
(The triple gold frame) walk with the bop gun cat name (Fame)
Must maintain, now I was raised in my (days)
On, BDP, Rakim and The Juice Crew (shit that I'm use to)
Now a days, rappers act pretty
Rap shitty, lost in this New Jack City
Talkin' bout all the (cars you lust)
Guns you bust and still get roobed by the ones you trust
But y'all (dogs) soon will see (what's that?)
What we bringin' to this sheisty ass industry
Now (now) that's my destiny, although,
We know none of y'all wack niggas is touchin' me, so...
[Hook]
[Verse Three]
Now throw your motherfuckin' hands up (for what?)
Keep it simple, ask no questions
We won't pop this Smith-N-Wesso at your temple
(Do you know what we into?) Check the resemy
We exchange slugs with the thuggish thug niggas around the way
We still ill, Sometimes we deside to kill
But we still in the vill, so sometimes we liable to steal
Plus we bust, don't mistake us for no other
Eye's screamin' like a demon
Finger itchin' like a motherfucker
Firing Squad, ill, ill Figure Nigger
Real we come up we homicide, we ride for the kill (buckbuckbuckbuckbuckbuck)
Black, emptyin' on sight, use your head
You don't wanna get up in this thug life
[Hook]
[Outro]
Bobobobo Firing Squad nigga
Yeah, world famous, international
Music: Peterson
Lyrics: Billy, James
Doesn't know what to do anymore
Jesus makes love to the spike
A trick for a fix and feeling so sck
Just can't seem to get right
Once he was the king of his world
A world without any order
SOld it all without thinking twice
Just for a spoonful of water
Ride, ride on through
Ride, ride through you
Ride, ride on through
Ride, ride through you
Ceremonious ritual
Raising of the veins
Always early and feeling so late
Waving goodbye to the rain
Ride, ride on through
Ride, ride through you
Ride, ride on through
Ride, ride through you
Slowly scratching away at the world
Fearless when he is stoned
Obsessed by dreams of what could've been
Trapped in his kingdom alone
Ride, ride on through
Ride, ride through you
Ride, ride on through
There is a white hot sun
And a big blue sea
From the 101
To the Tappan Zee
There is a shadow world
On the other side
And I will ride, ride, ride
I will grow impatient for your love
But you will not recognize
How I might die inside
Unless I ride
There is a hollow moon
And a big black sky
[Master P]
A coward dies a million deaths but a soldier only dies once
The good run, Well the bad stand anytime
We ride for the block (Hoody Hoo)
We ride for the hood
We ride for what we believe in
We ride or die for our people cause we all we got
[Chorus x4]
We got problems then we ride (we ride)
Take the Techs, 4-5s, and we stick em outside
[Master P]
Roll down the window, I ain't hollerin at no bitch
This nigga hiding from me, I heard this nigga turned snitch
You give me five, I can get it done
Take two, see em on the porch tonight, they be less one
Throw up the rags when I fold up
Nigga the game over fucking with these No Limit Soldiers
We was born to ride, born to die
Suck it up at the funeral, Real niggaz don't cry
We can take it to the battlefield
Fuck the police, the judges, tonight shit done got real
Like T-Mac, I'ma rocket nigga
We see the motherfuckers, aim, cock, and pop it nigga
[Chorus]
[Halleluyah]
Yea ay yo
If drama involved, the heat come out, my problem get solved
You better duck or they'll fire back more
Gangsta shouldn't be in your vocabulary
Most niggaz be shook, one shot'll drop an adversary
Yo I'm coming with goons who fight like the wild west and
I know why y'all trying to sell sex like Loon?
Get real in the game of life
Niggaz get killed if they aim ain't right
Or if your game ain't tight
Young soldier buckle up, niggaz change at night
Put something hot in your stomach to change ya life
Make moves or get left behind
Move wrong and your soul move on from a tech or a nine
I can see you outside the Cafe Blue
I've been sneaking, crawling, trying to get to you
It gets so hot, when you go walking past
strip you down, you must do something fast
I'm going to Ride her again
I'm going to Ride her again
I'm going to Ride
down, down, down, again
Don't try to hide behind that dress tonight
don't try to run, I've got you in my sight
Blew your mind, you knew not what to do
get on that floor, I'll take a slice of you
I'm going to Ride her again
I'm going to Ride her again
I'm going to Ride
down, down, down, again
Go wipe the sweat from the last half an hour
put your glasses on, we know just who you are
Flesh so hot, she made the leather melt
"No" she said, but that's not how she felt
I'm going to Ride her again
I'm going to Ride her again
I'm going to Ride
down, down, down, again
Meet me down by the side of the road
I got a pocketful of nothing and I know what I know
I know what I know I don't know nothing else
If you can teach me something, I'd sure appreciate the
help
And its back and forth
Forth and back
Around in a circle
Now how ya like that
How does it feel when you're goin no where
Won't you stop sometime and let me know
Won't you let me know
Are you ready to go
Wontcha let me know
Sometime ago somebody told me something
I can't remember what he said, I can't remember nothing
They say you only hear what you want to hear
And I can only hear this guitar ringing in my ear
And its back and forth
Forth and back
Around in a circle
Now how ya like that
How does it feel when you're goin no where
Won't you stop sometime and let me ride
Won't you let me ride
I wanna ride it high
Are you ready to ride
Lose my eyes now I can see in the dark
Sometimes I only wanna hear the sounds of the stars
No beeping no bleeping
No whirring no buzzing
Just the sound of em sleeping and they ain't saying
nothing
The sound of em sleepin
Now don't it sound nice I think
I ought to go get some advice
And its back and forth
Forth and back
Around in a circle
Now how ya like that
How does it feel when you're goin no where
Won't you stop sometime and let me ride
I wanna ride it high
Are you ready to ride
Cause I wanna know I wanna know
I wanna know what's inside
I wanna know I wanna know I wanna know what's inside
I wanna know I wanna know I wanna know
I wanna know I wanna know I wanna know
(Robert Earl Keen/Bill Whitbeck)
One day after twenty-five years
Head of service at the local Sears
Helen Walker put her pencil down and walked away
And all they found was a little note
'Adios' was all she wrote
But as she left, someone heard her say
"Gonna buy me a ticket to the end of the line
Wanna feel the air, breathe the countryside
As long as those wheels keep rollin', I'll be satisfied
Gonna ride, ride, ride"
Saturday night I was down at Joe's
He was moppin' up gettin' ready to close
He sat down and poured me one last brew
And he said to me with a sideways glance
"If I ever get the chance
I'm gonna sell this joint, and this is what I'll do"
"Gonna buy me a ticket to the end of the line
Wanna feel the air, breathe the countryside
As long as those wheels keep rollin', I'll be satisfied
Gonna ride, ride, ride"
I suppose I could stay
In this little town 'til my dying day
But in my heart I know I've gotta go
So I'm standin' at the station waitin' for the train
Don't know when I'll be back again
Mr. Engineer, won't you let your whistle blow
Got me a ticket to the end of the line
Wanna feel the air, breathe the countryside
As long as those wheels keep rollin', I'll be satisfied
Gonna ride, ride, ride
As long as those wheels keep rollin', I'll be satisfied
Gonna ride, ride, ride
Im gonna rock this place like outta space
Give you something that you never had
Im gonna paint my nails
and style my hair
And save me a strawberry bubble bath
Im gonna sweep my mind
and the time Ill find
that I got summet to say
Im gonna jump around
and paint this town
Now let me hear you say
Take me, take me down, take me down
ride
Now follow, follow me now, follow me now
ride
He was a stranger in london at night
And he felt alone so he followed a light
Into a bar where the music was loud
He ordered a pint and got lost in the crowd
He asked a girl if she wanted to dance
She turned up her nose and she told him "no chance!"
He felt rejected and stood by the wall
And wondered why he'd ever bothered at all
He missed his family and wished he was home
With all of those strangers he felt so alone
Patrick don't be afraid
You'll live to laugh another day
Patrick don't be afraid
The cavalry is on the way
He stood in silence, looked round for a while
Then he saw a girl and she looked back and smiled
Then he went over and started to talk
She looked a bit like his sister in cork
He bought her a drink with his last two quid
When he said "come back for a coffee" she did
Patrick you've got it made
You're halfway there, you're on your way
Patrick she's not afraid
And now I bet you're glad you stayed
Looking so lovely and perfectly groomed
She showed in the centre of patrick's room
She was lit up from the inside and out
Oh he was enchanted as she moved about
She touched him like sunlight on cold mountain stone
And he grew afraid lest she leave him alone
Patrick don't be afraid
You've won the girl and saved the day
Patrick you've got it made
The girl's not going to run away
Patrick don't be afraid
The cavalry is on the way
Patrick you've got it made
I've been out on that open road
You can be my full time, daddy
White and gold
Singing blues has been getting old
You can be my full time, baby
Hot or cold
Don't break me down
I've been travelin' too long
I've been trying too hard
With one pretty song
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I am alone in the night
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble, but I
I've got a war in my mind
So, I just ride
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride
Dying young and I'm playing hard
That's the way my father made his life an art
Drink all day and we talk 'til dark
That's the way the road doves do it, ride 'til dark.
Don't leave me now
Don't say good bye
Don't turn around
Leave me high and dry
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I am alone in the night
Been tryin' hard not to get in trouble, but I
I've got a war in my mind
I just ride
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride
I'm tired of feeling like I'm f-ck-n crazy
I'm tired of driving 'till I see stars in my eyes
I look up to hear myself saying,
Baby, too much I strive, I just ride
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I am alone in the night
Been tryin' hard not to get in trouble, but I
I've got a war in my mind
I just ride
Everybody's hoping that I won't do no wrong
"Be clean, be a dad, be brave and have a high-tech job!"
But when I switch on my stereo and get my feelings out
of dirty sounds
I gotta keep moving
I gotta keep moving
I gotta keep moving on
CHORUS:
I got a bad-bad ride
I got a bad-bad ride
I got a bad-bad ride
I think that you are old, when you just tell me what you
are toldl
"Be clean, be a dad, be brave and have a high-tech job!"
While those dirty freak rule the world, talking 'bout
war pigs and other lunatics
I gotta keep moving
I gotta keep moving
I gotta keep moving on
CHORUS
I gotta keep moving
I gotta keep moving
(Jennings/Dorrian)
Lack-lustre vacuum magnetises the land, scopeless material in ruthless demand, concrete
spectacle superficially grand, divine animation buried in sand.
Chorus :
We¹ll rise from the ashes of stagnation, crystal warriors of damnation.
Nullified grafters manufactured from the womb, out of the repro-clinic into household tomb.
Drag the nothing tiring through coal-dark underground, drive the wheels of iron round and
round.
Repeat chorus
Scouring eyes sear through that book of lies, and to the truth, well our search is dignified.
Whilst the yawny drone of physical machinery march in robot mode to terminal destiny.
Microscopic observance, forsaken innerland, spiritual inertia, absorbed in blanc, well our
significance shan¹t sink in their charade, Rcos through their drab pantomine I say we¹re
gonna ride !
You're my ride
I'm out my window
It's alright
If you got candy-o
You're so cool,
And not much older
But you know how to drive
Baby you're my ride.
I sneak outside,
And to the corner.
Roll down your drive
Before you start it.
I'm no fool,
Not like your father
Awake outside
Baby you're my ride.
My ride
My ride
My ride
You stupid man
Can't collect your stupid thoughts
With a pay cheque
Fist to fist your hands shake
Careful to choose the laws you break
You can't say that
It's not allowed
That can't be
I just say
Ride, ride
You ride by me
You stupid man
The blood beast
has to think to even place his feet
The easy life is easily found
Fat life is dug in the ground
You can't say that
It's not allowed
That can't be done
It's not allowed
I just say
Ride, ride
I really am tired
to ride, ride
You ride by meEarn a crust
Sleepy head
Dragged down on a reef
Your inner self shall leave you
for someone else
Shall leave you
That can't be done
It's not allowed
I just say
It's just not right, right
You pray for me
to ride, ride
You pray for me
to ride
Ride, ride, ride, ride
ride, ride, ride, ride
Come on
Baby baby come on
Baby baby come on
You only know one half of me
Up until now it's all I let you see
I used to reveal selectively
But now I'm changing
So baby come on inside
Baby get on this ride
Get closer to me
Don't you know that
It's time to take control
To take what's mine
Gonna take it home
I think I'm about to fly, so here we go
Baby get on this ride with me

Baby get on this ride hold on tight
Cos we've got all night
Baby get on this ride with me
I wanna feel you next to me
Baby get on this ride

Feels like I've been locked up all my life
Held down denied the right to fight
Nobody else could do this right
I'm just arriving
Baby get on this side
Baby get on this ride
Get closer to me
Don't you know that
It's time I let you know
I got so much further that I could go
It's time to start the show
So here we go

Baby come on sit next to me
Baby get on this ride hold on tight cos we've got all
night
Baby get on this ride with me
I wanna feel you next to me
Baby get on this ride
Hold on tight
Buckle up right now
Baby come on
If you want what I want we won't have a problem
You see in the past I just compromised
I've been taking a backseat but that's not me no longer
I don't feel shy, don't want to hide, I'm ready to fly
Now baby come on
Come on
All you my people, my people
Tell me now

+I Got Game+, so whatcha know
Get it up, then I hit her with the Rambo
Oo-chie, coo-chie
Still lookin for the supa booty
Rump, chaser, rump snatcha
Huh, get 'em on camera
Call me a jockey
Cause I'm ridin them skirts and I talk real cocky
Ol mackin-ass Mix is back
I'm slangin that game on 28 tracks
Yep yep, pack 'em in a Benz
Take 'em to my house, straight let 'em all in
Call Mix-a-Lot a slut?
I might get banned, but I still like BUTTS
Mmmmm! lay 'em on the table
Dr. Richard's willin and able
Not sexist, just sexy
Do I like sistas? Well, let's see
She's thick, walkin with a switch
Carryin a beeper, ya betta not call her no bitch
When it comes to a snack-pack I can't lie
I wanna RIDE!
Can I RIDE?
I wanna RIDE! [x2]
Shake 'em up like you're playin them craps
Two snake eyes puttin fellas on tap
What I'm sayin ain't popular nowadays
But it ain't good without the mayonnaise
I, can-not dance
But I'm good when ya hit that stance
Wham, bam, met a girl named Pam
I poke and thank you ma'am
Ain't no, drag in my bag
Gotta do me cause I don't play tag
Six-double-o hoop, costs loot
Hit the gas she'll scoot
When ya dance, I'm on ya
When ya walk, I'm on ya
When ya moan, I'm on ya
I'm that +Nasty Dog+ and I tried to warn ya
To the 'tel, to the 'tel we go
Don't need a bed cause I'm good on the floor
When a chocolate masterpiece walks by,
I wanna RIDE!
Can I RIDE, baby?
I wanna RIDE!
RIDE
I'm like Tyrannosaurus Rex
I sense movement then I gotta wreck shop
I'm on top but down to flip-flop
[scratching] "Don't stop"
So, I, won't stop
Love to see that thang go pop
Don't be, phony, baby show me
I can ride yo pony
Saddle up n' go, you can show Bo
He don't know
You, can, put it on a man
Make me yo number one fan
Some brothers wanna claim they're down
Puttin on fronts like clowns
But I'm packin this 9 in my glove
Givin nothin but the females love, yeah!
Ain't no sissy in me
4-4 mags ain't never been friendly
But I like the girls
+Cake Boys+ get scared in the kitty-cat world
But I'm not the one to come cake
Baby this game is straight
Fellas in the house, you can't deny!
ALL y'all wants to RIDE!
Here am I, alone in your sky
With my mind passing by the thoughts in your eye
If I were you, and you were me,
Could you feel how unreal your world seems to be?
Oh please, don't mind that I'm here
For who am I when you're near?
I'll try to find a place in my mind
Where you know you can go, and leave all behind
How does it feel when a dream seems so real
And you fly through my eye on a steel rainbow wheel?
Searching my mind for thoughts left behind
Let you feel you're concealed by a smile-coloured blind
Oh please, don't mind that I'm here
For who am I when you're near?
I'll try to find a place in my mind
Put your head against my life
What do you hear
A million words just trying to make
Love song of the year
Close your eyes but don't forget
What you have heard
A man just trying to say three words
Words that make you scared
A million love songs later
And here I am trying to tell you that I care
A million love songs later and here I am
A million love songs later and here I am
Looking to the future now
This is what I see
A million chances pass me by
A million chances to hold you
Take me back, take me back
To where I wanna be
Hide away from all my truth
Through the light I see
A million love songs later
And here I am trying to tell you that I care
A million love songs later and here I am
A million love songs later and here I am
Oh yeah, oh girl, and here I am
Wanna know how I got to be this way...
Wanna know if you had it would you be the same...
I can tell that you're tired of playing a losing game..
I'm checkin' you 'cause I got love for you...
I gotta let you know that you don't have to lose
Come take a ride on the...
The other side if you're...
Lookin' for love that you...
You cannot find...
'Cause you gotta know love comes in many many ways...
But the love that God give you will never never change
I know you feel that time has left you by yourself...
You can just chill 'cause God's been with you ever step
And even when you took a ride to ease the pain inside...
Don't ever think He's been away from you...
He's got a million angels who've been watchin' for you come on
Come take a ride on the...
The other side if you're...
Lookin' for love that you...
You cannot find...
'Cause you gotta know love comes in many many ways...
But the love that God give you will never never change
Well it's alright if you wanna wanna take a ride...
Messages ran all over town
Words without sound
Condemned me
And left me for dead
All over again
It wasn't the first time, but this time
Things will never be the same
Ride, ride the very thought into the ground
In the church of the lost and found
The angels cry
Ride, ride until the darkness closes in
Until the ravaged soul begins
To reflect the open skies, ride
The chapel was burned
Razed to the ground
From the darkest of clouds
Small birds tumbled like rain
Time and again
You may go charging at windmills
In these days
Absurdities never change
Ride, ride the very thought into the ground
In the church of the lost and found
The angels cry
Ride, ride until the darkness closes in
Until the ravaged soul begins
To reflect the open skies, ride
In the thick of the woods
The word is taboo
In the darkest of continents
Light can deceive you
Ride, saddle up your thoughts and run to ground
In this world of lost and found
Dead man, crawling out of his crater
Sucking on the air from his ventilator
Watch out, little girl, you're just a beginner
He wears outside his face the smile of a winner
Drags his woman around by the hair
It turns her on, she don't wanna be square
Standing on top of the family mountain
Drinking lemonade from the magical fountain
Holiday trips in a Volkswagen camper
Children locked into an old picnic hamper
Let them loose to play in a sandpit
Leave them there 'cause they take us for granted
Man is an ape and woman a martyr
It's not what you do when you do it, it's what you do after
I went down to the zoo and I looked in the cages
Don't wake me up if it's another day
'cos I don't wanna see it on my own
Your love is all that I am asking for
But they won't let us be alone
I've been running for a thousand miles
I didn't find a better place
I need to hold your body in my arms
And feel your kisses on my face
Don't you hide your love away
You are the Crown of Creation
I wanna be your relation
I'm getting off at your station
Well I was looking for a waterfall
And whatever nature showed to me
To be alone these things just bring you down
When you can share them, then you're free
When I wake up next to you
And I breathe the morning air
I know that you're the only one for me
Across 50 states of mind
I didn't feel inclined
You waited yesterday
I didn't come your way
Now time is moving on
I know it won't be long
Till I`m shuffling away
With nothing more to say
When I'm printed on your wall
My face won't change at all
The smile beneath my hair
Hangs lifeless in the air
Like a net in water
I'm running through it all
And I'm shuffling away
With nothing more to say
It's been preying on my mind
And now I'm just resigned
You smile for yesterday
I think I'm in the way
You seem concerned
And say I should slow down
But how can I see the stars
If my feet are on the ground?
Last night I had such a good time,
But there's a price to pay.
A night full of kicks, now the sun's in my eyes,
And I feel so weary today.
I want to close my eyes,
I want to close my eyes,
I want to ride and ride and ride,
Until I'm blown away.
Make your body a blanket,
Let me rest my head.
The world can wait for just a few minutes more,
The king's been in his bedroom for weeks
In exile from the world, he never speaks
The queen is in the counting house, her fingers in the till
There's something happening to the castle on the hill
The jester's telling jokes to everyone
Says, "Now he's gone, well, ain't it fun"
There's whispers in the courtroom, "Is he crazy, is he ill?"
Nobody has an answer but they keep on asking still
And a friend of mine, one of the few
Has locked himself away like Howard Hughes
They're trying to replace him but they know they never will
It ain't the same without him on the castle on the hill
There's a wind of madness in the air
Since he's gone nobody seems to care
The court is disillusioned, everything is up for sale
See the girls coughing, looking underfed
When they go to sleep, they dream of being dead
I saw you in the corner, with a butcher's knife
Your boyfriend running round, looking for a midwife
Everyone's got the same disease, it's alright
Everybody lives down on their knees, it's alright
Bumped into a hunchback abuser
Said he made a million working on a cruiser
Do what he want and he don't get caught
He's looking at the moon but I'm an astronaut
Everyone looks when they see a crash, it's alright
Everybody needs just a little cash, it's alright
Evening daybreak, switchblade stomach ache
Gonna meet a man with a rattlesnake handshake
Walk around like I'm looking for an upgrade
Blackbird flying in the sky
Please don't look me in the eye
You are very very lucky
It's never easy to find me
The winter's coming now you've grown
The cold will numb you to the bone
It cuts you through so that you know
In pain the minutes go so slow
Your soul and mine will carry on
When this transparent world is gone
There's nothing strange in what I say
It's always meant to be this way
Power streams where love is strong
Energy converting, never gone
There's never going to be an end
A million atoms can't pretend
Until the cold ground swallows me
Me and Ide, go running free
Then we'll change, not disappear
All channels receiving loud and clear
Birdman think he owns the sky
But he can't look me in the eye
I walk on gilded mirror blades
I walk on razors feel no pain
In the heat of summertime
Rolling thunder is my sign
I understand what's going on
Rise above the rain,
For all our sins we're not to blame,
This time will pass away not yours or mine.
And what we tried so hard to find,
Is already in our mind.
Stand beneath the sun,
And know that soon our time will come,
And we can be the way we want to be.
The sun will set,
And then the sun will rise,
We watch it pass across the skies,
So beautiful and warm,
Lying still, staring out of the window,
All I can see is doubt.
Watching as tonight moves in.
Watching as the light fades out.
Smokey rooms, minds out of tune.
Lights go down on the time spent with you.
Time moves into place, my memories fade,
Is all I can see so true?
This night these memories lost and found
Are taking over me
I could see your picture and hear the sound
Of the song you sung to me
You gotta feel and take every chance
You did the right thing
Drove a thousand miles away
Out of trace and in another time
You did the wrong thing
And bought it back in your mind
Why's life so unkind?
For always and ever it's getting better
I feel your steps with mine
I'm moving on like it said in the letter
Another place, another time
Blown away
We have short time to stay,
Our night is slipping far away.
Caught up within bad memories,
Our growth seems certain to decay.
Now this feeling's so alive,
But, as you or anything, we die.
We die.
Let's stay here for a while,
Eyes so round and bright we gently smile.
Live for the moment, not the past.
Wondering outside Where do you go?
With your eyes in sight Who do you see?
You're in my life How do you feel?
But you don't know me Where could you be?
Where do you go?
Who do you see?
Mixing loyalty
I follow what I see
I follow what I feel
Until your wisdom loses me
Please
Stampede into me
Who said time heals all wounds?
I think it was me before I met you.
You silver chains have slit my wrists,
When I fell in live I never asked for this.
All this time and I still can't see,
How your poisoned mind still poisons me.
The silver chains around your neck
Cut my throat when you turn your back.
I've tried so hard to keep control,
But the thought of you
Eyes aflame, she ran away,
I will be where I want to be.
Need some space to be alone,
Need a place to call my own.
Can't stay here another day,
Thank awhile, walk away.
People wonder where she's gone,
All they see's a strange shaped stone.
My eyes are sore, my body weak,
My throat is dry, I cannot speak.
My words are dead,
Falling like feathers to the floor.
You gave me things I'd never seen,
You made my life a waking dream.
But we are dead,
Falling like ashes to the floor.
Definitions confine thoughts, they are a myth,
Words are clumsy, language doesn't fit.
But we know there's no limit to thought,
We know there's no limits.
Now it's your turn to see me rise,
You burned your wings, now watch me fly,
Above your head.
Looking down I see you far below,
She knew she was able to fly,
Because when she came down,
She had dust on her hands from the sky.
She felt so high, the dust made her cry.
She knew she could fly like a bird,
But when she said 'please raise the roof higher' nobody heard
They never noticed a word.
The light bulbs burn, her fingers will learn.
Why should it feel like a crime,
If I want to be with you all the time?
Why is it measured in hours?
We should make our own time.
Another stupid day,
I'm confused and I can't explain,
Why I'm having to run away.
And now I'm not so sure,
If I've felt so low before,
Why do I still wan't more?
When you're killing me to the core.
I thought I was in line,
And happiness was mine,
I was sure that I had found,
Catch me, in another dream, I'm pulled away,
Hold me, gently take me through another day.
However hard I try,
I crawl when I should fly.
I wander through my days,
Pulled a million ways.
Help me feel the forces I can't touch, I'm reaching out.
Help me learn, until I know too much, I'm still without.
These circles pulling me near,
Hold me in my fear.
And sleeping I can't hide,
I'm paralysed inside.
Never been so far away
I don't think I want to stay in this room
Anymore
If I crwal across the floor
Then I'd be closer to that door
It's too far
Never been so far away
Just lost the last thought in my head
What happens now?
Some fantasy you've been
Pick up the pieces in my mind
I'm going home
Only Now the jewel shining
Only Now I've lost the fear
In an hour I'll stop crying
Along the road ahead
Early on our life burned
Early on the gem not clear
Comes the time to take a turn
To find another way
And I swear
No hurricane could lead me all astray
And I swear
No hurricane would dare to try to keep me away
Only Now have you touched me
But by now you're who knows where
Only Now has it hit me
Wasn't sure before
Early on the signals cross
Where's the potion where's the drug
Just for now the jewel is lost
I should have known better,
Than to expect it all.
You want everything,
And you end up grabbing at air.
I had so much to give,
So much hope, we held each other high.
But the heroes are gone,
And all that's left is you and me.
I learned the hard way,
That life should be easy,
But I want you to know it was hard to show,
The things that I know now.
And all that's left is you and me,
And here we are,
I won't be a monkey in anyone's zoo
And I won't get fazed whatever you do
"Hit him again, he's crazy"
I've been higher than all of you 'til the sun's in my
eyes
And the sky is blue
And all that's left for me to do
Is to come back down
To the ground
These moments away make your heart ring true
They open your eyes
Find out what you can do
And all that's left for me to do
Is to come back down, inside
Well I live
In this place
With a natural grace
And I walk
Through confusion
With a smile on my face
So I stumble here, and tumble there
...We all need someone to love and care
And though these moments may change
You'll still be the best thing
Running away
You're lost fpor words again
Now you`ve got all what you wanted
Are you really satisfied?
Tricky scenes
Thricky little dreams
The earth spins and my head spins me
Back round to you
It's just a state of mind
Freedom and time
Has got me frozen up inside
I wanna recognise
Under this moonlight
That God is on my side
With senses running wild
We touched the sky
It looks like Heaven in my eyes
Moonlight medicine Keeps me alive
Don't let your senses be denied
Won't you shine
Some light in my mind
The more I find
There's a picture on the door
Madman smiling from the floor
It's a good day for a drive
If you think you will survive
Just my way of saying hi
'Cos I knew I wouldn't write
And the seat will fit one more
So there`s room enough for four
Your words they flatter me
You fill my head with tea
Please let me take it one more mile
The Galaxie will burn
If I can't make it turn
Hope I'm making Judy smile
Baby's got a magic power, she can change the seasons
She's saving up her magic power, for very special reasons
If you drink her potion, you're going to lose your mind
The water from this magic spring, is the best that you
can find...
Take a drink of the water, from the magical spring
You'd better believe it, it's a wonderful thing
You'll love her 'til the end of time
You'll need her 'til you die
Maybe you are wondering
So here's the reason why
She holds the key to everything, inside her pretty hands
She doesn't go to sleep at night, she's making evil plans
You can try, but you just can't tell her no
She'll bring you to your knees, and she'll never let you
Drink from the fountain, where the air is thin
The way your hair hangs down it hides away your face,
For you it's perfect, but it seems like such a waste.
And when I see you sliding past I make my plans,
And then my plans slip through my fingers just like sand.
I wish that life could be just like a photograph,
One moment captured as you laugh your perfect laugh.
But that's a daydream, things could never be so right,
Leave Them All Behind
Wheels turning around
Into alien grounds
Pass through different times
Leave them all Behind
Just to see
We've got so far to go
Until we get there
Just let it flow
Colours shining clear
Fading into night
Our grasp is broken
There's nothing we can do
I Don't care about the colours
I don't care about the light
I don't care about the truth
One hundred years from now
See the chrome, cam't hear it move
I'll meet you on the way down
Wrapped around someone`s hand
We've all moved on from here
The coloue's running dry
A drowsy line of wasted time
Bathes my open mind
This strange machinery
Is keeping you from seeing me
I'll meet you on the way down
Can't stay - unbearable to go
Take me for a ride away from places I have known,
If I stay around I'll just remember I'm alone
There's someone in my memory making me move on,
What was grey and hazy is black and white
Now I have gone
Drive me up to London now, it's got too dark to see,
My waiting is over, there's no visitor for me.
Never let me talk to you, destroy the frozen past,
It's a different time now, things are moving much too fast.
Float by today, not it's turning to grey,
Raining my doubts let my thoughts slip away.
You must have something and what it is I don't know,
Follow me down to the Starlight Motel
While everyone's sleeping tonight
Don't be afraid, I know what's on your mind
I'm gonna make it alright
Well, I know it's cold and I know it's late
But our life is short, darling, I can't wait
Follow my footsteps and silently step
Out to the road in the moonlight
The stars in the sky are all laid out for us
They'll watch over our love tonight
Well, I know it's cold and I know it's late
But our life is short, darling, I can't wait
Won't you join me for this dance
It may be our only chance
Baby, don't say no tonight
There's times I believe that we'll never return
But the moon always has to start falling
Blankets protect you from the cold before dawn
I know that you are thinking of me now,
I can feel it but I don't know how.
When I'm gone you will see so clear
That I left some words unspoken here.
All these words that I have said,
Float around you, fill your head.
All the times we laughed and cried,
I never thought I'd leave you behind.
I don't want you to understand,
You will never hold me in your hand.
I don't want you to see my face,
When I fade away and leave this place.
All these words that I have said,
Float around you, fill your head.
All the times we laughed and cried,
I never thought I'd change your mind.
All these songs fill my head,
Dance around you when I'm dead.
All the love I ever knew,
Blowing bubbles, lying down,
Waiting for the rain to fall.
Laughing at the people,
Wonder why they always rush, never slow down.
And we're smiling, when we're sleeping.
And we're smiling, when we're waking.
Even if the rain falls down, and all the sky turns cold,
I will feel fine.
Thunder roared and lightning flashed,
But you and I are in a different time.
Floating in and out of time,
In and out of space.
No one can touch us,
Looking for me in the words I'm reading
Shying away from the life I'm leading here
Fall on the floor, stare up at the ceiling
How does it feel when the day is over?
How does it feel when the dark comes down?
How does it feel when your room is black as sin?
How does it feel when you're scared by the dark?
How does it feel to feel?
How does it feel to feel?
How does it feel when a shadow moves you?
How does it feel rustled by your bed?
How does it feel when it finally holds you?
How does it feel when you're thinking you're dead?
How does it feel to feel?
How does it feel to feel?
How does it feel when you wake in the morning?
How does it feel feeling sun in the shade?
How does it feel when you slide down a sunbeam?
How does it feel bursting clouds on your way?
How does it feel now that the night is over?
How does it feel never to sleep again?
The bridge holds back the sky,
Can't hold back what's inside.
And the train above me,
Sounds like the music in my head.
My thoughts are undecided,
I think it so I hide it,
And the train rushes past,
Like a day gone too fast.
I wish that I was stronger,
Could keep my head for longer.
I sit and watch my fear,
But it won't disappear.
I can dream myself away,
Lose myself for days.
And the train rushes past,
Like a day gone too fast.
All I know is here and now.
And the train rushes past,
Like a day gone too fast.
And the train rushes past,
All the things she said she did
I can't believe they're done
Won't these white sheets swallow me up
I just feel so young
Wormed your way inside my head
To muddle up my brain
I'm glazed over, no-ones home
I'm going blank again
Chairs and tables move around
But I just stay the same
Everybody's happy now
The room has gone insane
You can't put the blame on me
I left before I came
I'm glazed over, no-one's home
Unsure of emotions,
And unsure of my stand,
That time was so perfect,
Who could ever understand?
So don't try to criticize,
You don't know the change that's in my eyes.
Plastic feelings and emotions,
Your lifestyle is your only tie.
It's time for a change,
I'm not asking, I'm telling you.
I'm watching, I'm listening,
But to touch seems the furthest sense away.
Tomorrow's another day,
Hesitance belongs to yesterday.
But I'm screaming, I'm shouting,
I'm sick of everything that's said.
The stars are out tonight,
And in my eyes there's a guiding light,
That's keeping me awake,
When the morning comes
You won't be mine
I know that angels come from time to time
There's nothing much to see
Just sensuality
I know that angels come from time to time
On a perfect day
Come my way
And see what matters and what you'll never find
There's a storm in your eyes
When your body's next to mine
I now that angels come from time to time
Can you see better things, coming your way?
Can you feel all heavy air, lifting off your days?
Can you see it's easy when you open up your mind?
I know that angels come from time to time
Laid up above the road
I'll never know
Where the finest hours seem to go
I just look out to space
The fiery sun burns, from morning to evening
Across this stony plain, where nothing grows
Huge clouds of dust, are thrown up by the scorching wind
Why do we travel on this endless road?
Deaf and blinded, he comes to a river
Senses blocked by the dust and the night
Something is calling, he sleepwalks without falling
Sixth sense stops him, in the shadowless light
I don't remember, I don't remember
Help me to remember
One night by the fire, somebody is talking
His voice is so happy, it almost sings
Like a vision, somehow he remembers
Can't see the lights or the blue orange signs.
Can't see the road or the long white lines.
Feeling the ground through the pedals in the floor,
Feeling death pounding at the door.
Windows all open, chaos in my hair,
Driving me 'round and leaving me there.
Cover my eyes and we'll die driving blind.
Cover my trail and we'll leave life behind.
Drive Blind.
All at once, too much light.
Captured and frozen, hear no sound.
Bright flashes penetrate,
Lying under sky,
She laughs at everything I say,
And pulls me under.
There's no time to resist.
Lying on the floor,
There's no time to resist,
Lying on the floor,
The tears are falling down and more.
Her eyes speak loud,
But actions speak the best
Waiting, hoping for a sign,
That what's forbidden can be mine.
I just want what I can't have,
Until my dreams burn down every time.
She's effortlessly cool,
But circumstances can be cruel.
And sometimes you must accept,
That you can't always get what you want.
We fill up our days and nights.
We fill up the gaps in our empty little lives.
But we know we are doomed,
Beautiful Lady, I love you so
You know I need you, please don't go
Just like a child, I'm running wild
I'd walk on water for your smile
I'd walk across the sea
To get you close to me
This life we're living, it can break your heart
But all these contradictions won't pull us apart
Don't be afraid, I'm gonna stay
She turns her face to the wall
She sees hew sorrow there
Puts out her hand to touch it
Again & again
Fingernail marks in the morning
Wallpaper silhouettes
Signs of her yesterdays
Can't ever be wiped away
She thought I would care
Thought that I'd be there
- Think again
Your face I've seen in visions
In silver rippling sky
No feelings/reactions
As I pass you by
Weeks compressed into minutes
This time is her time
Let me just once
Be crual without being kind
Waste no more energy
No more time
Step into the time machine
Aboard this flight
Time to go
It's sad that you're not here
To open up your eyes and....
watch me dissapear
Carried away
Imaginations are running wild
Losing control
I'm landing back this year
Did I ever move?
Did I dissapear?
If I could move through time
I'd go back and put it right
First you look so strong,
Then you fade away.
The sun will blind my eyes,
I love you anyway.
First you form a smile,
I watch you for a while.
You are a vapour trail,
In a deep blue sky.
Tremble with a sigh,
Glitter in your eye.
You seem to come and go,
I never seem to know.
And all my time,
is yours as much as mine.
We never have enough,
You're rushing for a time that you don't know,
Curious of what your feelings are you go
Losing sight of that familiar touch you know,
Sinking into unknown beauty for a day,
Living everything as it comes and goes,
The only times you know have passed away.
Now you're looking back where everything seems here,
Any minute you will feel
The chemistry
Vibrations in the brain
Can't ever be explained
Slip away and out of sigh
Feel the magnet of a night
The circus lights you see
Is where you have to be
If I've seen it all before
Why's this bus taking me back again
If I don't need anymore
Why's this bus taking me back again
Feel the weight of letting go
Feel more lightness than you've ever known
You can't see when light`s so strong
You can't see when light is gone
Wake up see the sun,
What's done is done.
Today.
Last thing I remember,
I don't know.
I want her,
I don't want her.
I need her.
I don't need her.
Floating like a smoke ring,
It cannot be regained.
Now it's touched, it's broken,
The taste just slips away.
The taste just slips away.
I just want to know.
I don't want to tell you,
What you want to know.
I don't want to tell you
As hard as right can be,
It can feel so wrong.
Too much to leave,
Now it's all gone wrong.
But what's right or wrong?
I don't know.
Behind this wall
The sun never shines its rays down on me
Don't blame the man who's hunted and trapped
And longs to be free
Every day the Good Lord sends
I plan my sweet revenge
This place won't get me down
Because I'm gonna burn it down
Your own idea of freedom might be to walk in the sun
And someone else, well they might tell you, loving someone
There's a million kind of doors
To go with all the different laws
To lock you out and keep you in
Every time I walk you home
You say you just want to be alone
Mary Anne, why can't you see
That you were born to marry me
Take my love, It's all I am
See, I'm determined to be your man
Mary Anne
I wanna pour you into my empty shell
Give you secrets you'll never tell
As the day breaks over our caravan
And you lie beside me like a lamb
Mary Anne
I can't survive without you here
Every second seems like a year
I ain't got nothing, I can't pretend
Take my love, It's all I am
Mary Anne
501 103 33 17 65 66
Do you wanna change
Or do you wanna stay the same
You got me running rings around the night again
Do you wanna feel
Or do you wanna feel the same
Don't let them tell you, you'll never change the game
Something's going on, don't let it die
Something's going on, accept it don't deny
Something's going on, don't let it die
Something's going on
Do you wanna hide
Or let your spirit fly
Capture the moment, before it passes by
Do you wanna give
Do you wanna live
Deceive yourself or quietly admit
Do you wanna change
Or will it always stay the same
Well the night, it ends so slowly
As the last small fires go out
One by one on the hillsides
With the people hanging out
We were wrapped in just a blanket
Must've been a pretty sight
As we followed up the mountain
To sleep under the light
I was shivering and shaking
In my shoes
When The Dawn Patrol it took me
And shook away my blues
Well you know that funny feeling
You get sometimes, now and then
When you feel like you can't make it
And you want to start again
When I get that funny feeling
It's with you I wanna be
In the hours before daylight
...I saw a hand move and I wondered
Where the movement was coming from
For the very first time I noticed
That this hand it was my own
Seems like science is self-obsession
We are placed where we should be
With the sea and the air around us
So there ain't no mystery
The beginning of understanding
Is just knowing there is no end
And the door that stands before you
Is just waiting to be your friend
You know everything's just beginning
Destiny has already seen
What's in store we shouldn't wonder
Because the future has always been
The beginning of understanding
Is just knowing there is no end
And the door that stands before you
Is just waiting to be your friend
Smile and turn away
Smile and turn away
Live just for the day
You think you know me inside out
Think you know what I'm all about
Here comes a slightly rude surprise
While you were tryin' to control
'N' trying to grab my soul
I blinked and saw right through ya
I'm spellin' out all of my rules
Keepin' charge of all my tools
I'm decidin' who gets inside
When someone cares it's nice to know
'Til that care turns to runnin' the show
And then I'll turn on ya
There is a secret place it's deep inside my pocket
Never try tellin' me who fits inside my pocket
I know what I have to find
And I gotta whole lot of time
Before I really reach my prize
Gotta desire to mess around
It'd be cool just to fool around
Maybe we'll mess togetha
There is a secret place it's deep inside my pocket
I've been waiting round some time
Just to live a life that's mine
I've been walking round this town
When there's no one else around
You can hear it everywhere
This is our eternal prayer
Let it go, Ride the wind
Let it go, Ride the wind
You'll see me, I'll come and see you
Always finding something to do
Love is needing, I'm needing love
Got to know that there is enough
We've been working far too late
Carrying this heavy load
Let it go, Ride the wind
Can't believe the things I said and did
Can't hold back but now I'm glad I did
Feel so perfect and I feel so clean
Days like these are few and far between
'Cause I got it all, got it in my head
And everything is gonna be alright
I see angels now where there was fear and fright
And everything is gonna be alright
Could this be something trustworthy
Open mind filled with feel good things
Could this be the meaning of it all
I was hunched but now I'm ten feet tall
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
I don't know where it comes from
I don't know where it comes from
I don't know where it comes from
Don't ask me where it comes from
There's something moving through the air
Years ago, it wasn't there
If people feel it, they don't care
Seems like everybody's sterilised
A piece is missing from their lives
They're never going to be surprised
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
Don't ask me where it comes from
Turned on the radio tonight
And I was overwhelmed with shite
I got so numb I couldn't fight
What's going on, I can't define
How is it everyone's resigned
We're so uptight, we can't unwind
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
Don't ask me where it comes from
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
Don't ask me where it comes from
There's something moving through the air
Years ago, it wasn't there
If people feel it, they don't care
Seems like everybody's sterilised
A piece is missing from their lives
They're never going to be surprised
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
I don't know where it comes from (don't ask me)
Don't ask me where it comes from
I don't know where it comes from
I don't know where it comes from
I don't know where it comes from
Any minute you will feel
The chemistry
Vibrations in the brain
Can't ever be explained
Slip away and out of sight
Feel the magnet of a night
The circus lights you see
Is where you have to be
If I've seen it all before
Why's this bus taking me back again
If I don't need anymore
Why's this bus taking me back again
Feel the weight of letting go
Feel more lightness than you've ever known
You can't see when light's so strong
You can't see when light is gone
Rolling thunder, feel my fears come alive
Stop and wonder, how many people must die?
I've gone away, far away, to this misery
Help me, someone set me free
Run hide
coming after me
Run hide
On to Albany
Hungry army, brothers Iroquois
Lonely party, fighting down in Troy
Long ago, so far away
Driving westward shores
Help me, someone hear me say
Run hide
coming after me
Run hide
On to Albany
Run hide
Coming after me
Run hide
Let's Get Lost
I get so bored by the day's end
I'm holding on for the weekend
I don't know why
I'm burning up inside
Let's get lost, feel like driving out of my mind
Wheels on fire, see those dust clouds rising up to the sky
You don't know the way that you got me feeling
Everyone around is wheeling and dealing
Endless freeway, cruising down the line on Highway 69
"Come on baby, take my hand lead me to the promised land"
Everybody wants to ride
Everybody gonna die
I ain't gonna slow rhymes to the top in no time
Stay show time, I showshine, running like I'm on the goal line
Grabbed the chrome nine, proceed with caution
Around here shit's rougher than Stone Cold Steve Austin
Floss, ridin' dirty with strikes against me
Say what's on my mind and the critics can give me
Some empty ink pens like clips, fuck a mind game
Welcome to my fully automatic mind frame
They say, "Fuck Haystak"
They don't say that when they see me
No 'cause in reality I'm bigger than on TV
Rolexes don't tick they glide, you can run, you just can't hide
My shit's hotter than pepper spray, bitch ain't barring me
I'm roundin' everyday, you weaker than R&B;
My life between [Incomprehensible] enough to make me psychotic
I was born up around the projects that's why I speak Ebonics
Everybody wants to ride, no one want to die
(Come on, now)
Why be afraid of one place on the other side
(You ready?)
Why live life in fear, death is guaranteed
(Come on, now)
Take it why you're here, money, hoes and weed
(Let's ride)
Motherfuckers think I'm rappin' for no reason for rhymin'
I'm motivated about the paper, the pussy and the diamond
But in the back of my mind, a part of me still exists
And still writes rhymes for the thrill of killin' lyricists
I'm serious with this like a massive heart attack
Talk that shit but you don't know part of Stak
Drop bombs like quarterbacks, B-52's
Went from interrogation to magazine interviews
Most of my life the situation was win or lose
You died on the drugs, money or your tennis shoes
This shit is deep, wolves dressed up as sheep
The enemy has got you thinkin' their your motherfuckin' peeps
I learned one thing comin' up in Tennessee
It's that people like you, you need people like me
To point your fuckin' finger and say that's the bad guy
Turn green with envy when my posse pass by
Everybody wants to ride, no one want to die
(Come on, now)
Why be afraid of one place on the other side
(You ready?)
Why live life in fear, death is guaranteed
(Come on, now)
Take it why you're here, money, hoes and weed
(Let's ride)
Nobody on your side, speakin' in the phone rapidly
You're thinkin' this motherfucker just blasted me
Hopin' it was a bad dream, the sad thing is, this is reality
And three seconds and you gonna be a fatality, like
Three, two, one, we're losing him people
Don't resist me, it will do you no good, if you try to fight
Just walk with me into this light, even though your heart is full of fright
Don't be afraid, relax, your tension is makin' it worse
There's no point in callin' an ambulance
Somebody get this man a hearse
Everybody wants to ride, no one want to die
(Come on, now)
Why be afraid of one place on the other side
(You ready?)
Why live life in fear, death is guaranteed
(Come on, now)
Take it why you're here, money, hoes and weed
That's the start, the middle, and the end
Aren't you glad the universe pretends
If I don't get this message home
Once again I'm gonna hate alone
Ride with me
Ride with me
Ride with me, Oh
Ride with me
Ride with me
Ride with me unless you
Bored aloud ignore the right to be
Invite me down because we like to see
The colours through your loaded mind
Fuck the world and liberate our time
Ride with me
Ride with me
Ride with me, Oh
Ride with me
Ride with me
Ride with me, Yeah
I'm not waiting a long life
I'm not waiting alone
Ride with me
Ride with me
Ride with me home
Ride with me
Ride with me
With your big star
Shining light the way
So gently in the dark
And my window frames
My window panes
Too heavy to be numb
My hands are tied
Touch his face with care
His force was fair
The TV's scared
Of popular sentiment
Watch the way he walks
His simple beat
My nerves are shook now
Change your mind
Feel it make it stronger
Turn it on
Sing pale blue eyes
Rest upon my soul
Forgotten there
Catch a ride
Catch a ride again
Behind the curtains
Time will bend
And try to slip away
Up the chimney's deep
The church is steep
It's safe to keep
The dirt will fly
Off to Oz I go
With baby's hands
So nicely placed now
Change your mind
Feel it make it stronger
Turn it on
Sing pale blue eyes
Rest upon my soul
Forgotten there
If you need some transportation
From a world of tribulation
Tell me your destination
I'll be, I'll be your ride
If you're out of inspiration
All you feel is desperation
Consider this an invitation
I'll be, I'll be you ride
We'll get a running start
And we'll take to the sky, baby
Ride, keep your hands on the wheel
And your eyes on the prize and ride
And when the world that you've created
Has got you feeling tired and jaded
Get your spirits elevated
Dig down, way deep inside
And when you're feeling
Scorned and hated
Under appreciated
And your guiding light has faded
I'll be, I'll be your ride
We'll get a running start
And we'll take to the sky, baby
Ride, keep your hands on the wheel
And your eyes on the prize and ride
And when you call
But they don't remember
When your mail
Says return to sender
Keep the faith baby
Don't surrender I'm on your side
I'll be your, I'll be your
I'll be, I'll be your ride
We'll get a running start
And we'll take to the sky, baby
Ride, keep your hands on the wheel
And your eyes on the prize and ride
Ride get a running start
And we'll take to the sky, baby
Ride, keep your hands on the wheel
