A World Without Melody - Lyrics - The New America - Bad Religion

Title: A World Without Melody
Album: The New America
Artist: Bad Religion
Composer(s): Greg Graffin

Lyric:
I don't wanna live in a world without melody
Sometimes a rhythmic din of society is too much for me
But purpose is prioritized
These days the goal is win the prize
There's a sleeping resonance
We hold through which we're unified

So let it out
Don't just get lost in the crowd
No one can deter you from your own death
There's no trip too remote from which you can't come back
And I got this hunch about you and me
None of us are ready for a world without melody

(Melody)
Melody is the key
(Melody)
It's the surest way
To unlock your individuality
(Melody)
Melody is the key
(Melody)
It will set you free

Don't disrelish harmony, community will make you whole
Work and understanding are the chords way deep within your soul
They only need to be struck once
And the vibrations swell and spread
But if we mute them they decay
Our sensibilities are dead

So let it out
Don't just be one of the crowd
Hesitance and diffidence will do you in
And your soul doesn't care for social medicine
And I've got this hunch about you and me
None of us are ready for a world without melody

(Melody)
Melody is the key
(Melody)
It's the surest way
To unlock your individuality
(Melody)
Melody is the key
(Melody)
It will set you free
(Melody)
And I know together we could change the world
(Melody)
Just you and me
(Melody)
But I won't live without melody

Without You - Lyrics - Hero - Kirk Franklin

Title: Without You
Album: Hero
Artist: Kirk Franklin
Composer(s): Kirk Franklin

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
I can take a plane high up in the sky
And fly for a million miles
Write a melody so sweet
Make a tear turn into a smile

I can see the color of spring
I can even feel the weather change
And soon the leaves fall and winter calls
'Cause nothing ever stays the same

When I think of where I?ve been
What I?ve done and all I own
How I think I know everything
Like I made it here on my own

And like the wind that blows
Like a flower that grows
Still with all I can do

Without You, life?s a song with no end
Without You, like having a heart that won?t mend
Without You, we?re just actors on a stage
Like a child who?s lost his way
Wouldn?t be here today without You

I admit that sometimes
Pride tries to hide my view
And even this gift that You gave me
I forget it?s for You

And all the many days and many ways
Your grace I?ve abused
Still You were patient
And Your love loved me through

But the wind still blows
And the flower still grows
And one thing is still true

Without You, life?s a song with no end
Without You, it's like having a heart that won?t mend
Jesus without You, we?re just actors on a stage
Like a child who?s lost his way
Wouldn?t be here today

Without You, life?s a wound that won?t heal
Without You, nothing in this world is for real
Without You, we're just actors on a stage
Like a child who's lost his way
Wouldn't be here today, without You

Can?t live, can?t see Your will for me
Can?t do anything, anything

Without You, life?s a song with no end
Without You, it's like having a heart that won?t mend
Jesus without You, we?re just actors on a stage
Like a child who?s lost his way
Wouldn?t be here today

Without You, life?s a wound that won?t heal
Without You, nothing in this world is for real
Without You, we're just actors on a stage
Like a child who's lost his way
Wouldn't be here today

Without You, we?re like a bride with no groom
Without You, it?s like seeing no sunshine in June
Without You, we?re just actors on a stage
Like a child who?s lost his way
We wouldn?t be here today

Without You, Jesus my life would be lost
Without You, I?ll never know what it cost
To see You, lay Your life down for me
From my past now I?m free

Tell me where would I be without You?
Tell me where would I be without You?
Wouldn?t be here today without You
Wouldn?t be here today without You

I can take a plane high up in the sky
And fly for a million miles

Empty - Lyrics - Love Behind The Melody - Raheem Devaughn

Title: Empty
Album: Love Behind The Melody
Artist: Raheem Devaughn
Composer(s): Bryan Michael Cox, Kendrick Dean, Raheem Devaughn

Lyric:
Close your eyes and imagine life with me
Now imagine life without me, could you do it?
I couldn't imagine life without you

Without you I'd be empty
To lie in the bed alone-empty
Shotgun in the ride-empty
My heart, my heart-empty

Ooh, you know you're lovesick
When ya answer the phone
And you hope to hear her voice
Ooh, you know you're lovesick
When ya shut it down and make
That girl your only choice

Ooh, lovesick when
When you wake up in the morning
(Just to fix her breakfast)
And I'll tell you how you know, your heart'll tell you so
When you found something good, you just can't let it go

One might spend a whole lifetime
Tryin' to find the love that I have here with you
My heart and my speaks for you
Without you I'd be lovesick and empty
(I'd be empty without ya)

Love, so empty
(Ooh, so empty without ya)
Lovesick and empty
(I'd be empty without ya)
So empty
(So empty)

Ooh, you know you found the one
When you get on bended knee
And words come out like marry me
Ooh, yes, you know you found the one
When the seconds feel like heaven
In the blink of an eternity

Ooh, you know you found the one
When there's no thought of time
And she's always on your mind
Ooh, you know you found the one
When you wanna be a better man
And man up like you can

One might spend a whole lifetime
Tryin' to find the love that I have here with you
My heart and my speaks for you
Without you I'd be lovesick and empty
(I'd be empty without ya)

Love, so empty
(Ooh, so empty without ya)
Lovesick and empty
(I'd be empty without ya)
So empty
(So empty)

Only gonna be alone
Searching the world for whatcha got at home
That would be a tragedy
If you miss out on what's meant to be

Only gonna be alone
Searching the world for whatcha got at home
That would be a tragedy
If you miss out on what's meant to be

One might spend a whole lifetime
Tryin' to find the love that I have here with you
My heart and my speaks for you
Without you I'd be lovesick and empty
(I'd be empty without ya)

Love, so empty
(Ooh, so empty without ya)
Lovesick and empty
(I'd be empty without ya)
So empty
(So empty)

Right after a light rain, have you ever seen
A rainbow that touched the sky?
Where it meets next to a pot of gold
That's what your beauty, your beauty reminds me of

Like a full moon it hangs next to the heavenly clouds
From which you came, you're my shining star
I'd be lovesick

Paper Moon - Lyrics - Natalie Cole

Title: Paper Moon
Artist: Natalie Cole
Composer(s): Harold Arlen, E. Y. Harburg, Billy Rose

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
I never feel a thing is real
When I'm away from you
Out of your embrace
The world's a temporary parking place

A bubble for a minute
You smile, the bubble has a rainbow in it

Say, it's only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

Yes, it's only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

Without your love
It's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade

It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

Yes, it's only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

Without your love
It's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade

It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe

We Know - Lyrics - Talib Kweli

Title: We Know
Artist: Talib Kweli
Composer(s): T.Kweli Greene, K. Ross, Dave Nathaniel West

Lyric:
Hey y'all
I feel good, right?
Yeah, ok
Now what that make me talk about? Love
Yeah, that's what the world need, ha
Yo, that's what your girl need
Alright, we gon' put it down like this
I'll tell you about myself

My name is Kweli, and I like to spit it homie
I rap about love and life, ladies get to know me
If you feeling lonely, I could be your one and only
I put it out in the world, so people show me love
Yeah, I always get it back
This ain't no pimp game here, thats a different track
You talking this and that, you need to get with this
I keep it realer than most, this is our business

What we gotta do to make them see
We got a good thing going on
Wanna tell the world if they don't know
That what we have is real
Wanna shout it from the mountains baby
That I love you, but if they don't hear me
I know, you know, we know

Yeah, yo, hey baby, look like you need a break tonight
Let me make it right, baby won't you stay the night
I got a lot of love as you know you're my favorite, right?
Hey my lady, what we gon' make tonight
That's the dream, but I never sleep
Across the crowded room, our eyes forever meet
But without doubt and gloom, 'cuz we can never be
That's why I got to go, you're my impossible love

Your the horizon, I can see but never ride off into
I write my lyrics to you, you the perfect instrumental
I sound better than the cat who rappin' to you now
That's between me and you, what happened to us now?
Got you hopin' for the glorious
Waitin' for that victorious feelin', wanted by all of us
Kneelin' and praying that the Lord in us will help us love ourselves
So much that the confidence attract to someone else

What we gotta do to make them see
We got a good thing going on
Wanna tell the world if they don't know
That what we have is real
Wanna shout it from the mountains baby
That I love you, but if they don't hear me
I know, you know, we know

Yo, rockin' Los Angeles, house of blues in sunset
Performin' like an orgasm, my girl ain't even cum yet
Seen her by the side of the stage givin' me energy
Potentially, wife material connectin' mentally
I felt like Heaven sent for me, you're meant for me
The doubters and the haters had to acknowledge eventually
You was a non-believer too if memory serves
And a heart that gives shit, tryin' to play your boy for the her

The harder that I run to you, the farther you become
It's like my heart was part of some movie, that hadn't yet begun
This woman moves me and I'm a mountain of a man
You pull me in like the waves do the grain of sand
Yeah, I love the way you bring it to me
I wrote a song for you, I love to hear you to sing it for me
And let the melody carry me through the jealousy
And we can cruise like Tom and Phenelope

What we gotta do to make them see
We got a good thing going on
Wanna tell the world if they don't know
That what we have is real
Wanna shout it from the mountains baby
That I love you, but if they don't hear me
I know, you know, we know

What we gotta do to make them see
We got a good thing going on
Wanna tell the world if they don't know
That what we have is real
Wanna shout it from the mountains baby
That I love you, but if they don't hear me
I know, you know, we know

Po' Folks - Lyrics - Watermelon, Chicken And Gritz - Nappy Roots

Title: Po' Folks
Album: Watermelon, Chicken And Gritz
Artist: Nappy Roots
Composer(s): William Hughes, Mark A Williams, Vito Tisdale, Kenneth Anthony, Joe Anthony Kent

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
All my life been po' but it really don't matter no mo'
And they wonder why we act this way, Nappy Boys gon' be okay
All my life been po' but it really don't matter no mo'
And they wonder why we act this way, Nappy Roots gon' be okay, okay

We came in the game, plain ya see
Average man when the rest was ashamed to be
Nappy head and all, ain't no changin' me

So rough it was, downright wrong I tell ya
Nobody never gave us nothin' but tough time and made us somethin'
Different stretch of road, new somethin' to see
Every state on the map, a different somethin' to eat

Daps and handshakes, it meant nuttin' for real
Everybody makin' a killin' man, showin' no feelin's
Walkin' off collectin' pay, it's the way of the world
Can't change it, so I guess I'm gon' pray for the world

Sometimes I ask myself, was I made for the world?
I scream this to you, and I say it to the world
Nappy then, Nappy now, Nappy for a bit
Knee-deep, head over heels in this country shit

All my life been po', but it really don't matter no mo'
And they wonder why we act this way, Nappy Boys gon' be okay
All my life been po', but it really don't matter no mo'
And they wonder why we act this way, Nappy Roots gon' be okay, okay

Even though I picture better days
I'm thankful for the chance I got to say amen
The Lord done blessed me with his grace
I wish this day would never end

We represent the slums, where we from, we feel they bump
Polish shot off on these presidents, and hard times they go and come
Some take up off, without the chance, to make it at all
Who woulda thought skinny'd be the one that's, makin' this call

Lord, help me out, tell me where I went wrong
I'm tryna find a righteous path, although it's, never been long
I gotta do it for my sons, they tellin' me, daddy be strong
We gon' make it through these hard times
Even though they go and they come

Ya absolutely right, for somethin' happen to me on last Tuesday night
It's plain as day, man they with this world trade
Naw brave any order but confoldure
Better make it home when nothin' seems to matter
That's when, see, everything can go any which way
They got me fooled, see the henny with the J
Front porch, chillin' broke, country folk, man I'm Nappy with my ways yo

All my life been po', but it really don't matter no mo'
And they wonder why we act this way, Nappy Boys gon' be okay
All my life been po', but it really don't matter no mo'
And they wonder why we act this way, Nappy Roots gon' be okay, okay

It's a blessin' we woke up this mornin'
All my colored folk stressin', come let's join hands
Got the folk with depresses of being po' man
Poppa taught me an order, survive for no man

Nappy got some from the roots for we gon' stand
Prophit grew from a juvenile to a grown man
Ya gotta take responsibility for ya own man
Zonin', two blunts a mo'nin, by sunrise sometimes

I love to hear my woman moanin', it's on again
Damn I hope you play this song again
The soul cleansin', the melody just read my end
Not a lot of things but usually just appendin' my lady
Been searchin' bendin' and saw my folks locked in the tenants
And it don't make any sense why children and sentencin'
Broadcastin' from the slums, that's why I'm writin' these sentences
Just lower my income, what though we ain't finish it

All my life been po', but it really don't matter no mo'
And they wonder why we act this way, Nappy Boys gon' be okay
All my life been po', but it really don't matter no mo'
And they wonder why we act this way, Nappy Roots gon' be okay, okay

Never Without You - Lyrics - Ringo Starr

Title: Never Without You
Artist: Ringo Starr
Composer(s): Richard Starkey, Mark Jeffrey Hudson, Gary Tolbert Nicholson

Lyric:
We were young, it was fun
And we couldn't lose
Times were right, overnight
We were headline news

Crazy days and reckless nights
Limousines and bright spotlights
We were brothers through it all

And your song will play on without you
And this world won't forget about you

Every part of you was in your song
Now we will carry on

Never without you
Within you, without you
Here comes the song, it's about you

Here today, not alone
With my memories
Life is strange, how things change
It's reality

You played a beautiful melody
That keeps on haunting me
I can always feel you by my side

And your song will play on without you
And this world won't forget about you

Every part of you was in your song
Now we will carry on

Never without you
Within you, without you
Here comes the song, it's about you

I know all things must pass
And only love will last
I'll always love the memory of you and me
Take it away Eric

And your song will play on without you
And this world won't forget about you

Every part of you was in your song
Now we will carry on

Never without you
Within you, without you
We're never without you
Within you, without you

We're never without you
We're never without you
Within you, without you
I think love is about you

A Song For The Dead - Lyrics - Exhumed

Title: A Song For The Dead
Artist: Exhumed
Composer(s): Michael Robert Beams, Matthew David Harvey

Lyric:
The ashen gray muse commissions a new verse
A song to while away the long sojourn in the hearse
Yet all of us who danse macabre to these dour, dismal tunes
Become cold, grim and hard as the dirt upon the tomb

In darkened dirges death's knell peals out it's toll
As another cadaver is consigned six feet down to its hole
But ere the last shovel of dirt falls on the wall of the box
We gravely offer a salute to those about to rot

So lift up your severed heads, in a song for the dead
Life's course ever runs red, so let no lyric remain unsaid
As from our mouths the melody is bled, in a symphony scripted in red
Like rats by the piper we're led, to join in this song for the dead

The humor of the gallons never fails to ring true
In this dead, bleak, sick world that we're hung
Drawn and quartered though
As each internecine instrument plays its own bloody part
The hammering of coffin nails outpaces the beating of our hearts

Symphonic surgery orchestrated, a cleaver conducts
The execrable epiphany comes too late, just to reduce us to chunks
Rising up from the sod heaves a gross, putrid breath
As the chorus is joined in this song for the dead

So lift up your severed heads, in a song for the dead
Life's course ever runs red, so let no lyric remain unsaid
As from our mouths the melody is bled, in a symphony scripted in red
Like rats by the piper we're led, to join in this song for the dead

Truncated toccatas deranged
Raked across barbed strings and hacked
Eviscerated etudes for the de-brained
Plucked upon heart string stretched on the rack

Medicinal movements decomposed
Regurgitating oratorios obscene
Forensic fugues and de-boned
Mutilating the melody's method and means

The crepitated coda dies in mid-refrain
As the sheet-music is obscured by a sanguine scarlet stain
Shattered stave lodged in your split-open splattered brain
The ruptured meter falters as the bow is fretted once again

Acrid arias are screeched
The bloated thorax is breached
Abrading viscera with bleach
Grotesquely gavage the deceased

Cleaving the clef, broken notes bleed into a mess
Falling on ears so deaf, so it ever is in death
Carbonized cantatas corrupt, ringing out
Sewing seeds of dischord and dismay

Suppurated sonatas erupt, purulent pizzicatos
Slicing every which way, the truncated cadence is sundered bloody
Scraps of sheet music unintellibly scrawled threnodies resonate
Six feet under to where all life's fractured melodies will finally resolve

The symphonic slaughter's swells without restraint
As the cacophonous cadenza splits your eardrums clean in twain
The repugnant orchestra pit an abattoir of death and pain
The hatchet falls in sharp staccato until everyone is slain

Would You Like To Dance - Lyrics - Joan Armatrading

Title: Would You Like To Dance
Artist: Joan Armatrading
Composer(s): Joan Armatrading

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
Want you
And I don't know what to do
Should I try to meet you after work?
By coincidence

Should I make a beeline
To your door, ring your bell
Ask someone to introduce us

Hey baby, would you like to dance?
Would you like to see my yacht?

Should I faint right at your feet
Walk right up and ask you
If you want to take a chance on me

Or start a conversation
With an old time melody
I'll treat you like a newborn child
Show a lot of self-restraint

I want your loving
Can't live without you
Said I need your loving, need your loving
Don't leave it too late
Said I need your loving, need your loving

Hey baby, would you like to dance?
I'd show a lot of self-restraint

I want your loving
Can't live without you
And I need your loving, need your loving
Can't live without you
Said I need your loving, need your loving

Hey baby, would you like to dance?
We could have a fine romance
Would you like to see my yacht?
I'll give you every little thing I got

Treat you like a newborn child
Protect you from the world outside
Show a lot of self-restraint

Until you say you're really ready

Hey baby, would you like to dance?
We could have a fine romance
Would you like to see my yacht?
I'll give you every little thing I got

Don't leave it too late
Said I need your loving, need your loving

Hey baby, would you like to dance?
We could have a fine romance
Would you like to see my yacht?
I'll give you every little thing I got

It'S Only A Paper Moon - Lyrics - Jim Reeves

Title: It'S Only A Paper Moon
Artist: Jim Reeves
Composer(s): Harold Arlen, E. Y. Harburg, Billy Rose

Lyric:
It's only a paper moon sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make believe if you believe in me
It's only a canvas sky hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make believe if you believe in me

Without your love it's a honky tonk parade
Without your love it's a melody played in a penny arcade
It's a Bonnom and Daily World just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make believe if you believe in me

Without your love

The Saga Begins - Lyrics - Rakim

Title: The Saga Begins
Artist: Rakim
Composer(s): Peter Phillips, Eric Barrier, William Griffin

Lyric:
Ahh
Ghetto music
Yo
Here we go

And my name is Rakim
And my name is Rakim
And my name is Rakim
And my name is Rakim
And my name is Rakim, Rakim

Yo, the saga begins, my eyes is the photography lens
Properly push pens and show quality gems
The horrors be grim but yo maybe tomorrow we win
If we follow the trends and keep count of the dollars we spend

I want a mahogany Benz, I want lottery ends
I want property, friends, plus my hobby is skins
If I decide we in sin, then my prophecy ends
But the God'll begin, watchin' my odyssey spin

In the place where war be, based on a true story
Territory was made for me to pursue glory
Blast alone masses in zones have to be sewn
Every capacity blown, I'm internationally known, yo

So all hail the honorable, microphone phenomenal
Persona is unbombable, trust me son
I continue like a saga do, bringin' you the drama to
Allow you that the chronicle has just begun

The saga begins
The soul controller, Rakim
Set it off, yo, the saga begins
Still say a rhyme after the next one

The saga begins
The soul controller, Rakim
Set it off, yo, the saga begins
You know that I'm the soloist

Yo, my never endin' epic, got the world spinnin' hectic
I quickly spread it, till the whole city's infected
Suspense that I supply intensify
Then commence as my daily events go by

You get involved in this, paragraphologist
Narratin' novelist, market this, sound marvelous
I'm the star in this, which means the author's authentic
Most definite, every episode's a epidemic

So when you research, check it, here go the evidence
They represent with lyrical negligence for presidents
My science existed, without the fiction
Every inscription is a special edition

So all hail the honorable, microphone phenomenal
Persona is unbombable, trust me son
I continue like a saga do, bringin' you the drama to
Allow you that the chronicle has just begun

The saga begins
The soul controller, Rakim
Set it off, yo, the saga begins
Still say a rhyme after the next one

The saga begins
The soul controller, Rakim
Set it off, yo, the saga begins
You know that I'm the soloist

Yo, the legacy lives, let 'em see what the pedigree is
Mega-thesis, blessin' these kids with extra features
The depth's deep as the deepest sea is
Telepathy increases melody gets speakers, telekinesis

Ideas appear as clear as pictures in movie theaters
Lyrics you hear it, devestating the way you ear it
So stay tuned for sequels, part two's and more
So soon you and your peoples can bumrush the store

The names have changed the game remain the same
How one came to reign on his claim to fame
No stoppin' this I'm droppin' this with hip-hop in this
And when the topic is topicless, then I'm writin' the apocalypse

So all hail the honorable, microphone phenomenal
Persona is unbombable, trust me son
I continue like a saga do, bringin' you the drama to
Allow you that the chronicle has just begun

The saga begins
The soul controller, Rakim
Set it off, yo, the saga begins
Still say a rhyme after the next one

The saga begins
The soul controller, Rakim
Set it off, yo, the saga begins
You know that I'm the soloist

Rakim, set it off
Rakim, set it off
Rakim, set it off
You know that I'm the soloist

Rakim, set it off
Rakim, set it off
Rakim, set it off
You know that I'm the soloist

Rakim, yo

Show Me What You Got - Lyrics - Significant Other - Limp Bizkit

Title: Show Me What You Got
Album: Significant Other
Artist: Limp Bizkit
Composer(s): Fred Durst, John Otto, Wes Borland, Leor Dimant, Sam Rivers

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
Keepin' it real world wide baby
Limp Bizkits in the house so bring it on
I'd like to dedicate this song to you
For makin' my dreams come true for the millinum
Are you ready? Then get the fuck up

Where you at Jacksonville, Rochester, Louisville
Columbia, Hartford, Milwaukee and Lewiston Maine?
Where you at Providence, Nashville, Memphis, Lauderdale
Portland, Orlando, Chicago and Frisco?
I left my heart in Austin with Mary Campbell
Got lost in Boston lookin' for the tea party
Met a child molester in Worcester
I need a Kleenex every time I'm leavin' Phoenix
I get silly when I play in Philly
Limp Bizkit committee down in Kansas City

Never know what I'm in for when I'm play in Denver
Hard rock don't stop down in Vegas
In Cincinnati the girls call me Daddy
And I probably aint leavin' the next time I'm in Cleveland
Found my lucky coin in Des Moine
And spit on a boy named Tina in Pasadena
We got the swing from New Orleans, Ft Worth and Dallas
We toast when we're tippin' up the Challis Tulsa, St. Louis, Sacto
Mesa Norfolk, Lawrence, Minneapolis, St. Paul, North Hampton
Detroit, Omaha, New York, LA

What can I say, I cant name'm all
So somebody, anybody, everybody
Get the fuck up
Show me what you got?
Show me what you got?
Hey ladies
Who's hot, who's not?
Who? Who?
Who's hot, who's not?

I can't help but believe in these friends
These bands, these stories and the places that I've been
I thank God, mom and dad, Adriana for the love I feel inside
Jordan, my phat ass band without 'em I'd be nothin'
But a pumpkin shoved inside a can
Without the fans there wouldn't be no show
And if that was really so then life would really blow
To the firm you always got my back
Korn for the love and the swappin' of the tracks

My brother Cory D, my man Terry Date
We brought it to the plate and you made it sound great
Scott Weiland the melody man if you can't sing it nobody can
Wu-Tang Clan skills from the method
The worlds best MC kills on this record
Slim shady crazy ass cracker, Staind a brand new drug for your brain
Les Claypool, for actin' like a fool
And all of the bands for the demos that were cool
I'm so grateful for this life of mine
The ones I didn't thank I will some other time

Now I just want somebody anybody, everybody
Get the fuck up
Show me what you got?
Show me what you got?
Hey ladies
Who's hot, who's not?
Who? Who?
Who's hot, who's not?
Who's hot, baby? Who's hot?

Alito, I like that big, bring in, bring in
I've been around this world and then some
Dum ditty dum kid where you comin' from?
I went from the garage to steppin' on these stages
Outrageous rhymes left my mind and soon became contagious
An MC with bad habits I am, I see a mic then I grab it, scary ain't it?
Comin' raw with no corrections savin' all perfections
For what I do with my erections so dream on

U.B.R(Unauthorized Biography Of Rakim) - Lyrics - Street's Disciple - Nas

Title: U.B.R(Unauthorized Biography Of Rakim)
Album: Street's Disciple
Artist: Nas
Composer(s): Nasir Jones

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
"The unauthorized copy
Dedication to my children, my child Destiny Jones
To my niece and nephews Suree, Malik, Jabari the world is yours
Acknowledgments, first off, I wanna thank God
And I wanna thank everybody for helping me out with this
Couldn't do it without you

Chapter 1, January 28, 1968
Born into this world as William Griffin The Great
Chapter 1, Wyandanch Long Island
Scientific rhymin' invented a new sound when he met with
Eric Barrier from East Sandhurst
The melody they created was the first

Burst on the scene, 1986 with Clap To This
'87 dropped a classic disc
The facts is the tracklist was like four
The vocals, the beats according to Marly Marl
Recorded in my hometown Queensbridge
That's why it's so relative

This biography was unauthorized
I spit it how it was given to author Nas
William changed his name at sixteen to Rakim Allah
'Cause Clarence 13X had New York on lock
Gods on every block, jams in every park

I remember hearin' Curtis Blow saying
"It can't get better than this"
'Til Run DMC blew my brains to bits
From leather coats to shell toes to the Stan Smiths
To Dapper Dan kicks
First million dollar deal ever in rap, 18th Letter did that
From 4th & Broadway to Uni to MCA

We followed the leader to Harlem's Apollo Theatre
Supreme rapped and the 50 that don't rap
Forte Green, Queens, Strong Island Wolfpack
Paid In Full posse, hot they was on and Ra had his firstborn

With the next line I'ma be easy, his wisdom's name is Fifi
EPMD put a record out, was dope
Tension spread, and I quote
"Smack me and I smack you back"

Sounded like the answer to the I Ain't No Joke track
For a second it ain't look good
Little tension buzzin' from Wyandanch to Brentwood
Misunderstood, all forgot by sixteen when I met Freddy Foxx
Totin' burners, the whole coast's most concern was
How was Rakim's flow, made Christians convert with Islamic ways

'Let The Rhythm Hit 'Em' was the third LP
A sophisticated mean one, before similar voices were King Son
A few others, but sooner or later, the game was Ra's kingdom
At sixteen, son was watchin' him, mesmerized
Respect, not jockin' him, was so amazin', besides
He came on the stage with lasers in his eyes walk with me now

"Unauthorized biography of Rakim
Epilogue, mother was a jazz singer
Nephew to R and B legend Ruth Brown
Discography, Paid In Full, Follow The Leader
Let The Rhythm Hit 'Em, Don't Sweat, The Technique
That's the end of the group

Went off to solo. Dropped the R
Then the 18th Letter, and I think, somethin' The Master
Was signed to Aftermath, scheduled to release an album
Oh My God with Dr. Dre
The album was dismantled because of creative differences
The end to the new beginning, yeah, next book, KRS1, Peace"

She Believes In Me - Lyrics - Greatest Hits - Kenny Rogers

Title: She Believes In Me
Album: Greatest Hits
Artist: Kenny Rogers
Composer(s): Steve Gibb

{AdsenseCode:2D080010-7055-443A-8D12-2B79DDC71256}

Lyric:
While she lays sleeping
I stay out late at night and play my songs
And sometimes, all the nights can be so long
And it's good when I finally make it home
All alone

While she lays dreaming
I try to get undressed without the light
And quietly she says, "How was your night?"
And I come to her and say, "It was all right"
And I hold her tight

And she believes in me
I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday, if she was my girl
I could change the world with my little songs
I was wrong

But she has faith in me
And so I go on trying faithfully
And who knows maybe, on some special night
If my song is right, I will find a way
Find a way

While she lays waiting
I stumble to the kitchen for a bite
Then I see my old guitar in the night
Just waiting for me like a secret friend
And there's no end

While she lays crying
I fumble with a melody or two
And I'm torn between the things that I should do
And she says to wake her up when I am through
God, her love is true

And she believes in me
I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday, if she was my girl
I could change the world with my little songs
I was wrong

But she has faith in me
And so I go on trying faithfully
And who knows maybe, on some special night
If my song is right, I will find a way
While she waits, while she waits for me

Lyric:
You bring the sun out
To make my love grow

To warm my life up

(You bring the sun out)
You're the reason that I'm living
I was hurting but I'm happy again

(You bring the sun out)
Lord, I wanna thank You 'cause
(You bring the sun out to make my love grow)

(You bring the sun out)
You were there when I had nothing
You've been with me from beginning to end

(You bring the sun out)
No clouds in the sky that's the reason why
(I Love You)

Question number one
(What can I do?)
Question number two
(What can I say?)

To try to let You know
(I appreciate, all of the ways
(You get me through my day)

Never would have thought
(I would be here)
A heart with no scars
(A face with no tears)

How can I thank You
(How can I show You)
(Wish I could get the whole world to know You)

If they only knew
(You are the one that gives me the air to breathe)
And see I can't deny
(You're the reason why my life has a melody, yeah)

And even when I stray
(I still feel your grace pulling me close to You)
So no matter where You are, just know I'm not far
(Without You what would I do?)

(You bring the sun out)
You're the reason that I'm living
I was hurting but I'm happy again

(You bring the sun out)
Lord, I wanna thank You 'cause
(You bring the sun out, to make my love grow)

(You bring the sun out)
You were there when I had nothing
You've been with me from beginning to end

No clouds in the sky that's the reason why
(Yeah, yeah)

Question number three
(Where would I be?)
And Lord, not only that but
(How could You see?)

My days and my nights
The pains of my life but now it's alright
('Cause You worked it out for me)

You gave me a chance when
(I had no chance)
When I needed help You
(You gave me Your hand)

So now they need to see
Just what You mean to me
And if You ever left me
(Where would I be?)

Oh
(You are the one that gives me the air to breathe)
Alleluia, You see I can't deny
(You're the reason why my life has a melody, yeah)

And even if I stray
(I still feel Your grace pulling me close to You)
So no matter where You are, just know I'm not far
(Without You what would I do?)
(I Love You)

(You bring the sun out)
You're the reason that I'm living
I was hurting but I'm happy again

(You bring the sun out)
Lord, I wanna thank You 'cause
(You bring the sun out, to make my love grow)

(You bring the sun out)
You were there when I had nothing
You've been with me from beginning to end

No clouds in the sky that's the reason why
(I Love You)

(You bring the sun out)
You're the reason that I'm living
I was hurting but I'm happy again, that's right

(You bring the sun out)
Lord, I wanna thank You 'cause
(You bring the sun out, to make my love grow)
You bring the sun out, Jesus

(You bring the sun out)
You were there when I had nothing
You've been with me from beginning to end

(You bring the sun out)
No clouds in the sky that's the reason why
Come on, sing

I feel the sunlight on my life
Reminding me that it is alright
And I see the rainbow and I know
My storm is finally passed away

There is a soft wind that begins
To blow back the clouds
So I can see Your perfect plan
Now I can hurry to my destiny

Can you clap your hands?
All my people if you want me get up
If you can hear me
Come on people, can you clap your hands?

I'ma say the same
Uh, can you clap your hands?
If you really love Him say
Forgive me

(You bring the sun out)
You're the reason that I'm living
I was hurting but I'm happy again, that's right

(You bring the sun out)
Lord, I wanna thank You 'cause
(You bring the sun out, to make my love grow)
You bring it out, Jesus

(You bring the sun out)
You were there when I had nothing
You've been with me from beginning to end
(You are the one)

(You bring the sun out)
No clouds in the sky that's the reason why
(I Love You)

(You bring the sun out)
I feel the sunlight on my life
Reminding me that it is alright

And I see the rainbow and I know

(You bring the sun out)

He loves you too much, just to leave you
(You bring the sun out)
(You bring the sun out, to make my love grow)
(You bring the sun out)
Thank you for a living day

(You bring the sun out)
We don't deserve it, Lord
(I love You)
Alleluia
