Ah, let me tell yall a little story. 'Bout this time I was down and out. Just goes to prove there's always a light on. But if you look, you'll find it's inside of you.
She was a simple girl, coming from a simple town. Still a child she started to work. She never had time for school. . Had a boyfriend, young,. Unemployed, wasted and stoned.
i see his cynical face. i see his cynical eyes. . my sarcastic god. my sarcastic god. my sarcastic god. . dissimulation every time, everywhere. dancing fire in his eyes.
I wanna ask you. but there so many words to say. i wanna ask you. but the words get in my way. its all there at the tip of your tongue.
Dam I wish you peoples would just mind your business. Dam I wish you peoples would just mind your business. . You want to know what's get's me pissed?.
Bring it on back to the young days when things wasn't so hard. Playin kickball in the school yard. The year before kindergarten when memories started at the day care.
And I don't want You just because I need You. And I don't want You just because You make my life complete. And I don't want You in the light of what You have for me.
And I choose to trust You. Even through the fire. And even when my eyes can't see. Yes, I know Your right beside me. . And I will always praise You, Lord.
Daddy was clappin', mama was cryin'. The Pentecost preacher was sayin' amen. Went down lost and came up found. Eleven years old I was born again. . Oh I, I found the answer in the river that day.
I didn't want a river. But you handed me the sea. I didn't want a forest. But you chopped down every tree. I didn't want these blue skies. But you shot down every bird.
Ay. ay. ay. ay. a. - ay. ay. ay. ay. a. . Nanananana manana will be the day heyo. . Nanananana manana will be the way heyo.. Ay ay ay ay a - ay ay ay ay a.
Malaika. Qui-Ji's angel Malaika. Malaika. Qui-Ji's angel Malaika. Float your spirit to me. Come take my blindness away. Ask the board for me and lead my hand.
Mercury. I see visions of galaxies. Where you are is where I'll be someday.. . And you puzzle me. Am I made of you?. Are you made of me?. Cause I'm so confused.
Writing in the daylight brings me shining words. Laughing like the first time brings to life these chords. . And I want to sing you this song cause I love you.
Melodramatic says, the world is out to get me. Oh I think I'm cursed right from the start. Oh it really shouldn't be this hard. . And angsty teenage me would say I'm not supposed to be happy.
MY OWN HANDS TO HOLD. . I WAS ALONE. SITTING ON THE STEPS OUTSIDE YOUR DOOR. YOU WEREN'T HOME. HELL I'VE BEEN THROUGH THIS TOO MANY TIMES BEFORE. AND WE GO ON AND ON.
Mmm. . Cars and stop signs. Streets that look like concrete rivers going nowhere. Were surrounded lets surrender. Run away right into thin air. . Boy take my hand lets disappear too many city lights round here.
Its just a matter of time / Its just a matter of time (Ohoooooa). Its just a matter of time / Its just a matter of time (Ohoooooa). . VERSE 1:. (Yo) Bullets be flying. People be dying /.
Wake up, wake up, wake up. Do you feel the movement in your gut. Just take two more pills. Or this ll be the last time. You ve gotta make a hit, you ve gotta make it stick.
From throat and eyes came winter and reasons. I'm told to carry on. Sad overwhelms my senses drown oh I feel dependent. The feeling that you weren't honestly gone.
