Originally, a 'landmark' literally meant a geographic feature used by explorers and others to find their way back or through an area.
In modern usage, a landmark includes anything that is easily recognizable, such as a monument, building, or other structure. In American English it is the main term used to designate places that might be of interest to tourists due to notable physical features or historical significance. Landmarks in the British English sense are often used for casual navigation, such as giving directions. This is done in American English as well.
In urban studies as well as in geography, a landmark is furthermore defined as an external point of reference that helps orienting in a familiar or unfamiliar environment. Landmarks are often used in verbal route instructions and as such an object of study by linguists as well as in other fields of study.
A variant is a seamark or daymark, a structure usually built intentionally to aid sailors navigating featureless coasts. An example is the tower at Walton-on-the-Naze in England.
You're on a train, I'm on a plane.
You name the landmark, I'll say the place.
You bring the money, I'll bring what you need.
Cocaine, cocaine.
I kiss my family and leave, I'm on a private plane,
I'm in a limousine.
I'm back in the game.
The east coast, they catch it all,
they ain't got the gold,
or maybe it's bronze, but I'm working hard with the
friends I trust.
Who knew that they would be the ones that would set me
How could I be so dumb?
I don't know.
Cocaine, cocaine.
I kiss my family and leave, I turn away,
This is no limousine.
I'm in cuffs today.
Come on Charles, you never fight the arrest.
Come on, we don't need to put the handcuffs on,
just get in the back.
And the police man with your silouhete drives away.
Cocaine, cocaine.
I kiss my family and leave, my daughter starts third
grade,
my wife won't let me see her, she don't want to anyway.
In the pen. we got a lot of time, baby,
In this one dream I, I keep having,
You're on a train, and I'm on a plane.
You name the landmarks, I'll say the place.
You bring our loving daughter, I'll bring your husband,
and I'll be the father my father was to me.
Working for a living, working for a living.
Cocaine, cocaine.
I made a lot of mistakes, you can't kill the pain
No, no no.
It can't be like it used to be.
We gotta let it fade away.
