It'S Been A Long Time - Lyrics - Rakim

Title: It'S Been A Long Time
Artist: Rakim
Composer(s): James Brown, Bobby Byrd, Eric Barrier, William Griffin, Charles Bobbit, Chris Martin

Lyric:
It's been a long time
It's been a long time
It's been a long time
It's been a long time
Rakim the microphone soloist

Follow procedures the crowd couldn't wait to see this
Nobody been this long awaited since Jesus
Who wouldn't believe this I heard the word on the street is
I'm still one of the deepest on the mic since Adidas

They said I changed the times from the rhymes that I thought of
So I made some more to put the New World in Order
With Mathematics, put your status above the average
And help you rappers, make paragraphs with graphics

'Cause new days is dawnin', new ways of peformin'
Brain stormin', I write and watch the night turn to mornin'
On and on and, I got the whole world respondin'
Rock, I keep it hot and blow the spot without warnin'

The Emperor, well known for, inventin' a sentence
Full of adventure, turnin' up the temperature
Rush with adrenaline, how long has it been again
To be in the state of min'd that Rakim is in?

It's been a long time
Rakim, the microphone soloist
It's been a long time
It's been a long time
Rakim

When I'm out proppin', either, hangin' or shoppin'
People see me stop and ask me when the album droppin'
The wait is over, information like a soldier
Like I told ya, greater stronger, now that I'm older

I broke the, code of silence with overloads of talents
My only challenge, is not to explode in violence
I'm Asiatic, and blazin' microphones a habit
At least once durin' the course of a day, it's automatic

In ghetto apparel, mind of a Egyptian Pharaoh
Far from shallow, thoughts travel like an arrow
Allah's monotony, so far they can't stop me
You know, Ra want property like Mumar Khadafi

More thoughts than Bibles, recital, taught disciples
A sawed off mic, so words scatter like a rifle
Thoughts that's trifle, I'm bustin' these for you
Aiyyo, technical difficulties is through

It's been a long time
Rakim, the microphone soloist
It's been a long time
Rakim, the microphone soloist

It's been a long time
Rakim, the microphone soloist
It's been a long time
It's been a long time

When I float at night, I show 'em new heights, I go to write
They know I strike with new prototypes to blow the mic
Critics and biters, don't know where my source of light is
Still leave authors and writers with arthritis

Cursed kids like the Pyramids when they found the style
First to ever let a rhyme flow down the Nile
The rebirth of hip-hop'll be dropped now
'Cause the crowd didn't hear the original in a while

So be alarmed, what you 'bout to see is the bomb
Like, 3-D in' 'Nam, vivid like CD-Rom
Info kept like "Internet.com"
My notebook's my bond like the Holy Quran

Since I came in the door, said it before
But no I ain't down with Eric B no more
At night the open mic be invitin' me to rhyme
So yo I'm online, it's been a long time

It's been a long time
It's been a long time
Rakim, the microphone soloist
It's been a long time
Rakim, the microphone soloist

It's been a long time
It's been a long time
It's been a long time
It's been a long time
It's been a long time

It'S Been A Long Time - Lyrics - Southside Johnny And The Asbury Jukes

Title: It'S Been A Long Time
Artist: Southside Johnny And The Asbury Jukes
Composer(s): Steven Van Zandt

Lyric:
We lived in a time and a world of our own
Makin' up the rules as we went along
Just one coat between us and we never felt cold
We were never gonna get old

Playing cards 'til the sun came up, rollin' dice
Down in the club and listen to the blues all night
Girls, out on the corner got lonely now and then
We'd never be that free again

It's been a long time since we've laughed together
It's been a long time since we've cried
Raise your glass for the comrades we've lost
My friend it's been a long, long time

Workin' just enough, girl, to pay the rent
Money got made, baby, money got spent
Sleepin' when we had nothin' left to do
Under the boardwalk and up on the roof

We never quite fit, baby, we never played the game
Came out explodin' like a runaway train
Up all night talkin' about dreams of better days
Ain't it funny how some things don't change?

It's been a long time since we've laughed together
It's been a long time since we've cried
Raise your glass for the comrades we've lost
My friend it's been a long, long time

We lived in a time and a world of our own
Makin' up the rules as we went along
Just one coat between us and we never felt cold
Oh, we were never gonna get old

It's been a long time since we've laughed together
It's been a long time since we've cried
Raise your glass for the comrades we've lost
My friend it's been a long, long time, long time

It's been a long time since we've laughed together
It's been a long time since we've cried, cried
Raise your glass for the comrades we've lost
My friend it's been a long, long time

It's been a long, long time, long time
Oh yesterday, raise your glass, baby
Ah, yeah, it's been a long, long, long time
Come on, come on, raise your glass, now

I'm in love since so long, since so long
Since so long, long time
Raise your glass now
Come on, baby

Lyric:
Ya'll mind, I'd like to talk to ya'll this evening

Ante up, time to let the trumpets sound
Crown me later, I'ma take my crown now
Been writing for 'bout 10 yrs now
And finally the real truth is coming out

You can't stop it 'cause this is God's plan
I know some of y'all just don't understand
And now ya twisted, can't believe it's me
Get it, it's Leela sho nuff

It's been a long time since ya heard it like this
It's been a long time since ya felt it like this
It's been a long time since ya seen it like this
'Cause ain't nobody bringing it quite like this

I've been praying for a time like this
And I've been waiting for a time like this
I've been talking 'bout a time like this
A long time coming but you get it like this

Through the rain, through the pain I'm still around
Thank God kept me on solid ground
My ship started out with many aboard
But when the [Incomprehensible] got rough they jumped ashore

I've seen many many many go and come
Even watched some of y'all faking the funk
But you can't lie, can't fake it, it's in your blood
Ya either got it or ya don't

It's been a long time since ya heard it like this
It's been a long time since ya felt it like this
It's been a long time since ya seen it like this
'Cause ain't nobody bringing it quite like this

I've been praying for a time like this
And I've been waiting for a time like this
I've been talking 'bout a time like this
A long time coming but you get it like this

Now, talk to the DJ, I said
Hey, DJ won't ya play my song
Keep it banging all night long
Hey, DJ won't ya play my song
Keep it banging all night long

Hey, DJ won't ya play my song
Keep it banging all night long
Hey, DJ won't ya play my song
Keep it banging all night long, all night long

It's been a long time since ya heard it like this
It's been a long time since ya felt it like this
It's been a long time since ya seen it like this
'Cause ain't nobody bringing it quite like this

And I've been praying for a time like this
And I've been waiting for a time like this
I've been talking 'bout a time like this
A long time coming but you get it like this

Sounds like something that you've had before
But it ain't really something that you've had before
Feels like something that you've felt before

But it ain't really something that you've felt before
Ain't really something that you've seen before
'Cause it sure ain't something that you've seen before

Been a long time coming, yeah
But the time surely has come
It's been a long time
DJ this is for you
Ain't nobody bringing it quite like this, now

Can you feel me, yeah
Been a long time

It's been a long time

Like It Or Not - Lyrics - Abacab - Genesis

Title: Like It Or Not
Album: Abacab
Artist: Genesis
Composer(s): Michael Rutherford

Lyric:
Ah, don't you know
I've been on my own
But I'm coming home
And I'd like you to be there
I feel a little cold in the air
And you're not anywhere

You're just another face
I used to know
But there is still a chance
To hold on to our love
'Cos I gave you everythin'
Everythin' I had

Ooh, like it or not
You have done it this time
And like it or not
I've had enough

Ooh, like it or not
There's a lot I could say
'Cos I've got a lot
On my mind

It won't be very long
You're just another face
That I once used to know
And I gave you everything
But what have I got to show? oh, oh

Oh, like it or not
You are out on the street
And like it or not
That's where you will stay

Oh, oh, like it or not
There's another thing darling
Well I just could not stand
Another day

'Cos if you want to know
That there is still a chance
To hold on to our love
'Cos I gave you everythin'
Everythin' I had
Everythin' I had

It's been a long, been a long, long time
Since I held anybody
Since I loved anyone
Oh it's been a long, been a long, long, long time
But if I'm right or if I'm wrong
Does it matter anyway?

It's been a long, long, long, long time
Since I held anybody
Since I loved anyone
Ooo, it's been a long, long, long, long time
But if I'm right or if I'm wrong
Does it matter anyway?

Oh, it's been a long, long, long, long time
Since I held anybody
Since I loved anyone
Oh, it's been a long, been a long, long, long time
I'm right, if I'm wrong
Does it matter anyway?

It's been a long, long, long, long, long time
Since I held anybody
Since I held anyone

2000 B.C. (Before Canibus) - Lyrics - Canibus

Title: 2000 B.C. (Before Canibus)
Artist: Canibus
Composer(s): Germaine Williams, Tyrone Fuffe, Michael Harper

Lyric:
Yo, my offense is a mixture of Mike and Muhammad
Knock a nigga unconscious and talk shit
In bare-knuckle boxin', speed is the object
Weavin' and dodgin' with defensive blockin'
So in the ring, you cannot win
The top ten become nine dead if I ever decide to hop in
With the one-two, one-two shot to the chin
Knock you out like ten shots of vodka and gin

The beautiful blend of power and strength
From the top of my head, down to where my toe cuticles end
I verbally burn a nigga, lyrically hurt a nigga
Pull a voodoo verse on a nigga, Kennedy curse a nigga
Who can spit the words quicker than the average man?
Who can embarrass a man? Bite you with fangs and mangle ya hands
On candid cam, the Canibus can
The Canibus can with the stamina to damage a man

It's been a long time
(It's been a long time)
I shouldn't have left you
(I shouldn't have left you)
Without a strong rhyme to step to
I told y'all
(C'mon)
I roast y'all
(C'mon)
So come on
Hold on
(Hold on)

It's been a long time
(It's been a long time)
I shouldn't have left you
(I shouldn't have left you)
Without a strong rhyme to step to
I told y'all
(C'mon)
I roast y'all
(C'mon)
So come on
Hold on
(Hold on)

Yo, I spit for it
(Lie for it)
Live for it
(Die for it)
Back out the nine, commit a homicide for it
If I'm handcuffed with the right to remain silent for it
I'ma blow trial and do the federal time for it
You mad at the last album, I apologize for it
Yo, I can't call it, motherfuckin' Wyclef spoiled it
But this time for 99 I got 5 on it

You should double up and put a dime on it
Matter of fact, triple your nickle and put 14.99 on it
I'ma shine on it, watch Flex drop a bomb on it
About ten times on it, watch people call a request line for it
Cypher sounds keep pushin' rewind on it
Look out for the album with the Canibus design on it
12 o'clock in the morning you'll be standin' on line for it
I'm a live poet with a sharp ear and eye for it
'Coz I tear down mics and put a out of order sign on it

It's been a long time
(It's been a long time)
I shouldn't have left you
(I shouldn't have left you)
Without a strong rhyme to step to
I told y'all
(C'mon)
I roast y'all
(C'mon)
So come on
Hold on
(Hold on)

It's been a long time
(It's been a long time)
I shouldn't have left you
(I shouldn't have left you)
Without a strong rhyme to step to
I told y'all
(C'mon)
I roast y'all
(C'mon)
So come on
Hold on
(Hold on)

Yo, I rip shit with the ballistic characteristics
Of a hollow tip at point blank distance
I flip shit when I spit shit, Father forgive bis
I just snatched the Jesus piece off some Christians
'Coz they sounded like idiots, they went from silver to gold to platinum
After the millennium they'll probably be wearin' iridium
They so gassed, if a bitch sucked they dick they'd probably cum helium
Y'all niggaz can't be serious, I was nice before ice
Before Christ, before the words let there be light
And a light took over the night, I was born with a mic

Lord of the mic before all plant and animal life
Took this rap shit to new heights
Before the Wright brothers took flight
Before dog fightin' and aerial strikes
Before MC's picked up pens and started to write
Before promotional marketin' and posterlights?
The Canibus'll bust up mics, punch out lights
Punch out your motherfuckin' eyesight for the title bought fight
Ask Top Phife, I snatch the track for half price
The Canibus is too nice, gimme that mic

It's been a long time
(It's been a long time)
I shouldn't have left you
(I shouldn't have left you)
Without a strong rhyme to step to
I told y'all
(C'mon)
I roast y'all
(C'mon)
So come on
Hold on
(Hold on)

It's been a long time
(It's been a long time)
I shouldn't have left you
(I shouldn't have left you)
Without a strong rhyme to step to
I told y'all
(C'mon)
I roast y'all
(C'mon)
So come on
Hold on

It'S About Time - Lyrics - Nate Sallie

Title: It'S About Time
Artist: Nate Sallie
Composer(s): Matthew Gerrard, Bridget Benenate, Nate Sallie

Lyric:
So you say, you wanna stay at home
Another night in your comfort zone
I know it?s easy to get caught up
In the same routine

So many things that you avoid
But you don?t have to be paranoid
Your heart says, go but you?re in limbo
Somewhere in between you?re always talking

But it?s getting you nowhere, take the first step
And it might just take you there, yeah

It's about time you got your feet wet
It's about time you took a dive in the deep end
Been a long time, you don't need a reason
Give it up get it out, do what you believe in

It's about time you got a little crazy
It's about time so jump in, baby
Been a long time waiting on the sidelines
Live it up let it out baby, it's about time

You watch your exercise videos
While you down a bag of Oreos
You say, you want to start tomorrow
That was yesterday

It?s time to go, so don?t be late
It?s easy to procrastinate
The same excuses that you always use
Sound really lame

You are the only thing that?s holdin' yourself back
If you keep waiting you might miss another chance
Yeah

It's about time you got your feet wet
It's about time you took a dive in the deep end
Been a long time, you don't need a reason
Give it up get it out, do what you believe in

It's about time you got a little crazy
It's about time so jump in, baby
Been a long time waiting on the sidelines
Live it up let it out baby, it's about time

Let?s live for this moment
?Cause who knows what tomorrow will bring
The road is wide open and right here right now
Turn it around, don?t let your life pass you by

It's about time you got your feet wet
It's about time you took a dive in the deep end
Been a long time, you don't need a reason
Give it up get it out, do what you believe in

It's about time you got a little crazy
It's about time so jump in, baby
Been a long time waiting on the sidelines
Live it up let it out baby, it's about time

Gotta get your feet wet, take a dive in the deep end
You don't need a reason, do what you believe in
You gotta get a little crazy, jump in, baby

Live it up, let it out, give it up, get it out
Been a long time, been a long time
Been a long time, you gotta get a little crazy
So jump in baby, it's about time

Long Long Time - Lyrics - Love Spit Love

Title: Long Long Time
Artist: Love Spit Love
Composer(s): Richard Butler, Richard Fortus

Lyric:
Sometimes it never rains
It can't rain all the time
And if I seem to make no sense
I make no sense sometimes

Sometimes it never shines
It can't shine all the time
And I can't speak through one more scene
I can't talk all the time

There's a promise in your mouth
Is that what this was all about?
We've got to suck it in and shout
It's been a long, long time

Sometimes I never talk
I can't talk all the time
And I can't see to find my feet
I can't sleep all the time

You've got to stop before you talk
Because it's all been said before
You can't stop knocking down my door
It's been a long, long, long, long time

Sunday's child will fall from grace
And heaven holds the hands that pray
There's nothing here for me to say

With my name upon your face
There's no one counting down these days
There's no one here to hear you say
It's been a long, long, long, long time

Sometimes it never rains
It can't rain all the time
And if I seem to make no sense
I make no sense sometimes

Sometimes it never shines
It can't shine all the time
And I can't speak through one more scene
I can't talk all the time

There's a promise in your mouth
Is that what this was all about?
We've got to suck it in and shout
It's been a long, long time

You've got to stop before you talk
Because it's all been said before
You can't stop knocking down my door
It's been a long, long, long, long time

Sometimes it never rains
It can't rain all the time

Title: Been A Long Time
Album: Mafia
Artist: Black Label Society
Composer(s): Zakk Wylde

Lyric:
The death, the lies, in lies the truth
All that it is, what was, ain't true

I was down but now I can see
The pain, the hurt, the misery

Oh Lord, it's been a long time
Doing my best I'll try and get it next time
Oh Lord, it's been a long time
Doing my best I'll try and get it next time

This cross you bare, I've come to carry for you
This cross you bare, I've come to break it in two

I was down but now I can see
The pain, the hurt, the misery

Oh Lord, it's been a long time
Doing my best I'll try and get it next time
Oh Lord, it's been a long time
Doing my best I'll try and get it next time

Oh Lord, it's been a long time
Doing my best I'll try and get it next time
Oh Lord, it's been a long time
Doing my best I'll try and get it next time

Composer(s): Mark Olson

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

Lyric:
Everybody's talking 'bout my baby
They say she's half blind
Everybody's talking 'bout my baby
They say she's half blind

It's been a good long time
And now I'm long gone
It's been a good long time
And now I'm long gone
And still this heartache lingers on

I miss you when in dreams I do remember
Dark shadows drift across my room
I miss you when in dreams I do remember
Dark shadows drift across my room

It's been a good long time
And now I'm long gone
It's been a good long time
And now I'm long gone
And still this heartache lingers on

It's been a good long time
And now I'm long gone
It's been a good long time
And now I'm long gone
And still this heartache lingers on

I miss you when in dreams I do remember
Dark shadows drift across my room
I miss you when in dreams I do remember
Dark shadows drift across my room

It's been a good long time
And now I'm long gone
It's been a good long time
And now I'm long gone

And still this heartache lingers on
And still this heartache lingers on
And on and on and on and on
And still this heartache lingers on

You keep it rolling, now
Keep rolling, rolling on
Yeah, keep rolling, now
Keep rolling, rolling on
And still this heartache lingers on

It's been a good long time
And now I'm long gone
It's been a good long time
And now I'm long gone
And still this heartache lingers on

Long Time Gone - Lyrics - Top Of The World Tour - Dixie Chicks

Title: Long Time Gone
Album: Top Of The World Tour
Artist: Dixie Chicks
Composer(s): Darrell Scott

Lyric:
Daddy sits on a? front porch swinging
Looking out on a vacant field
Used to be filled with burley t'bacca
Now he knows it never will

My brother's found work in Indiana
Sister's a nurse at the old folks home
Mama still cooking too much for supper
And me I?ve been a long time gone

Been a long time gone
No, I ain't hoed a row
Since I don't know when, long time gone
And it ain't coming back again

Deliah plays that ol' church pian'a
Sitting out on her daddy's farm
She always thought that we'd be together
Lord I never meant to do her harm

Said she could hear me singin' in the choir
Me, I heard another song
I caught wind and hit the road runnin'
And Lord, I've been a long time gone

Been a long time gone
Lord, I ain't had a prayer
Since I don't know when, long time gone
And it ain't comin' back again

Now me, I went to Nashville, tryin' to beat the big deal
Playin' down on Broadway, gettin' there the hard way
Living from a tip jar, sleeping in my car
Hocking my guitar, yeah I?m gonna be a star

Now, me and Deliah singing every Sunday
Watching the children and the garden grow
We listen to the radio to hear what's cookin?
But the music ain't got no soul

Now they sound tired but they don't sound Haggard
They've got money but they don't have Cash
They got Junior but they don't have Hank
I think, I think, I think

The rest is a long time gone
No, I ain't hit the roof
Since I don?t know when long time gone
And it ain't coming back

I said a long time gone
No, I ain't honked the horn
Since I don?t know when long time gone
And it ain't coming back again

I said a long time, long time, long time gone
Well it?s been a long time
Long time, long time, long time gone
Oh, it's been a long time gone
Long time, long time, long time gone
Yeah, yeah

Long Time Gone - Lyrics - David Crosby

Title: Long Time Gone
Artist: David Crosby
Composer(s): David Crosby

Lyric:
It's been a long time comin'
Goin' to be a long time gone

And it appears to be a long
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long time
Such a long, long time before the dawn, yeah

Turn, turn any corner
Turn and hear
What your friends and your neighbors might have to say, yeah
Something, something, something's goin' on around here
Surely, surely, surely will not stand the light of day

And it appears to be a long
Appears to be a long, yeah
Appears to be a long time
Such a long, long time before the dawn, yeah, yeah, yeah

Speak out, speak out against the madness, yes, yeah, yeah
All I'm sayin' is speak your mind
That is if you still can and you still have the guts to
Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't
Try to get yourself elected, no, no
And if you do forsake this child you'd better cut your hair

It appears to be a long, yes it does now
Appears to be a long, yeah, yeah
Appears to be a long such a long, a long
Such a long, long time before the dawn

It's been a long time comin'
It'll be a long time gone
But you know, the darkest hour, yeah
It is always, just before your dawn, yes it is

And it appears to be a long, oh, oh
Appears to be a long, oh, oh, oh
Appears to be a long time
Such a long, long time

And it appears to be a long, yeah

The warmth in your smile is the warmth that I desire

Long Time Comin' - Lyrics - Pages - Bering Strait

Title: Long Time Comin'
Album: Pages
Artist: Bering Strait
Composer(s): Billy Montana, Lydia Salnikova

Lyric:
I got a word for you, try it on for size
I've been ready to say it for awhile
You know I'm not impulsive, it's not a change of heart
Just something way overdue, goodbye

It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time comin'
Yeah, we've grown so far apart

You shouldn't be surprised
Already passed the point of no return
Just gotta cross the t's, gotta dot the i's
And that will be the last bridge to burn

It's been a long time comin'
It's been a long time comin'
Oh, yeah

It's time that our lives go separate ways
It's time for our love to call it a day

And it's been a long time comin'
It's been a long, long time comin'
It's been a long time comin'

Independence Day - Lyrics - David Byrne

Title: Independence Day
Artist: David Byrne
Composer(s): David Byrne

Lyric:
Now and then I get horny
At night you do
At night you do
Smile from side to side
At night you do
At night you do

She'll be comin' round the mountain
Six white horses by her side
No stops for gas, food or lodging
She's wearin' nothin' but a smile

And though we struggle for our freedom
Our need for others still remains
We know what will make us happy
We know what will ease our pain

We'll pretend we are married
At night we do
At night we do
Slide your hand in mine
At night we do
At night we do

My bed is flyin' out the window
I'm pullin' up my covers to the rain
And down below cats are howlin'
It's a family affair

They're sellin' vegetables on Broadway
A man is runnin' for the train
Strollin' down forty second street
On our Independence Day
Rub A Dub on fifty seventh street
On our Independence Day
Arm in arm on eighty second street
It's our Independence Day

Hey mister, hey lady
Hey sisters walkin' hand in hand
We'll be lovers in the open
We'll be lovers on Independence Day
Hand in hand, hand in hand
Hand in hand on Independence Day

This compass points in two directions
And north and south are both the same
We'll look forward to the good times
Come our Independence Day

Hey lady, you make me giggle
We'll squiggle like honeymooners do
I'm struck by lightnin', it's frightnin'
So excitin' on Independence Day
Uncle Vera, Auntie Ida
Get so excited on Independence Day

Been waitin' such a long time
Waitin' such a long time
Waitin' such a long time
Waitin' such a long time
Till Independence Day

Waitin' such a long time
Waitin' such a long time
Waitin' such a long time
And now it's here
Independence Day

Waitin' such a long time
Such a long time
Such a long, such a long time
Waitin' such a long time
Till Independence Day

Waitin' such a long time
Such a long time
Such a long, such a long time
And now it's here
Independence Day

Waitin' such a long time
Such a long time
Such a long, such a long time
Waitin' such a long time
Till Independence Day

Waitin' such a long time
Such a long time
Such a long, such a long time
Now it's here
