Listen to the sound bites of your neighbors. Through the paper thin walls. Making variations on their stories. Told with southern drawls. Look into the dustbin.
Moon over the freeway catch us as we ride. We just left the city, left it far behind. Silhouettes of palm trees, airplanes cross the moon. Living in the moment of the girl who left too soon.
The hammock that's swinging. Is bringing the good life perspective. Sipping canned air in the shade. of an apartment that's built to break. Did you forget.
Cat in the upstairs window. Staring down at me. Life seems to have a purpose. When you're wandering aimlessly. In the meantime. What am I missing. I'm missing out.
Rap:. Father I stand as one but one for so many. Did maths right but the world is so hazy. Where you save they rob you of your glory. Call you different names most of which aint so holy.
Can't escape a past. That wasn't ever lived. All beginnings ended. Come back to start again. And the people seem to falter. As they watch you fall asunder.
Intro beat:. . Verse 1. I have been walking for miles and days. My feet are hurting Im in sores n in pain. Life is a journey; this Ive come to see. Laughter is history in captivity.
Takin' it fast takin it slow. Don't take it at all just get up and go. Come on let's go. Tired of sittin' around the house. Stand right up. Move on out.
Clock in you're at work but you're not working so hard. Checking messages ten times a day ensuring you're not bored. Talking on someone else's dime. Put a quarter in the pay phone don't keep them waiting on the line.
WE ARE NEVER GONNA FALL. Then again Ill say. Then again Ill say. Dear lord here I come. Savior here I come. In the raging storm we are never gonna fall.
Be swift make noise. No nonsense makes no sense at all. Forget what you don't know. . You said it I heard it. I even listened I finally learned. Sharing and taking turns.
Bright lines, shines weve got. Shot from the stars like golden sun. Brooklyn know, Brissy on top. We do our thang and in truth we stand. Holla holla amma spill this the way that I know.
Hey there little man. Get out of my fryin' pan. I got bigger fish to fry than you. It's high time you listen to me. I choose my battles carefully. So get out of here son.
Chorus:. Na na na na... . Rap:1. You can be what you wanna, let em say what they wanna. You live by ethics, they live by marijuana. Youre hearts your best friend and nones gonna change.
In the winters and the stormiest skies. In the coldest where theres darkness and strife. Ill shine it for you. You, you. You, you, you o dearie!. You, you.
Critical eyes are gazing. Fat cows are grazing. My eyes are glazing. How can you see straight with all the lies. I'm too young. You think you're old. Why don't you just hold me cold.
I fall many times. Cry through days and nights. Down in my darkest hours I see the light. Ill shine it for You. You, You. Ill shine it for You. You, You.
