Teach Me The Words To Your Song - Lyrics - Tanya Tucker

Title: Teach Me The Words To Your Song
Artist: Tanya Tucker
Composer(s): G Barnhill, R Bourke

Lyric:
I hope it's all that I'd found
This may be my last time around
I tried so long but it's always gone wrong
'Cause I don't know the words to your song

Teach me the words to your song
Teach me and I'll sing along
I don't care anymore if it's right or it's wrong
Just teach me the words to your song

I've been hurt time after time
I've laid my heart on the line
I want to stay while the feelin's so strong
So teach me the words to your song

Teach me the words to your song
Teach me and I'll sing along
I don't care anymore if it's right or it's wrong
Just teach me the words to your song
Just teach me the words to your song

Warrior Song - Lyrics - God's Son - Nas

Title: Warrior Song
Album: God's Son
Artist: Nas
Composer(s): Alicia Augello-Cook, Nasir Jones, Kut

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

Lyric:
Uh, If I can teach somethin' so dear
And hope somebody learn somethin' from it
And give it back

They can't break me or shake me, they too fake to come kill me
Think they faith this was Satan, they mistake me I'm filthy
Rich off the ghetto madness, so now they wanna dare me
It's gonna be a murder confront me, the burners are empty
Middle Passage I made it, I'm from the land of David
The Nazarene of Bethlehem they had me wrapped in blankets
That bunch of backward gangsters, that sign of Alpha Davis
Snitches with smile-like faces got you blowin' trial I hear this

Hopin' my child can see through this tryna be a good daddy
I was there when she was born and she'll be there when I'm buried
Kind o' waitin' is scary, all my years have prepared me
What I fear is my temper, I subject to the center
Right through a man's soul straight through his eyes
Straight through his heart, I'm still alive how did I make it this far?

'Cause I been high I been low, searchin' for a way to go
Every single night I pray
And Lord I'm on this battleground, lost just waitin' to be found
I guess it's just a warrior's way

This is the song, for my warriors, a warrior song
Bravehearted and strong, definition of a warrior
Gonna keep marchin' on
To the sound of our own beatin' drum

Like King Nasir fightin' the British regime
I can't cope my existence is hope for younger teens who lost in their world
Earlier this year I buried my queen in a gold casket
Your mother's the closest thing to God that you ever have kid
I'm askin', what would you do at your own mom's funeral?
Wanna pick her up out of it, this can't be real
Tellin' my daughter grandma's gone, but I can't keep still
I can't go on, responsible for so many

Her last days at the hospital
Visits from family I'm tryin' not to bust shots at niggas
Wishin' death on other nigga's mothers ain't right but why mommy?
She raised me in the projects alone
Her untimely exit from her, heavenly body
Got me ready to embody somethin' quickly
Can't be happy, fuck a party she can't party with me
So your apologies are burnin' ya own souls
To the kids with no parents at home, grab a whole

This is the song, for my warriors, a warrior song
Bravehearted and strong, definition of a warrior
Gonna keep marchin' on
To the sound of our own beatin' drum

Fight 'til the fight is over, for my peoples I die see
When you thought they were soldiers they turned out to be nobodies
I think they out to get me, helpless was livin' sinful
If you was me all this pain I'm feelin' would bend and killed you
I'm a warrior, it only made me stronger
But in my head it gets darker who wishin' evil on ya?
Sometimes I wish I was dead
But I took heed to the cause I'm a warrior, yeah

'Cause I been high I been low, searchin' for a way to go
Every single night I pray
And Lord I'm on this battleground, lost just waitin' to be found
I guess it's just a warrior's way

This is the song, for my warriors, a warrior song
Bravehearted and strong, definition of a warrior
Gonna keep marchin' on
To the sound of our own beatin' drum
This is the song, for my warriors, a warrior song
Bravehearted and strong, definition of a warrior
Gonna keep marchin' on
To the sound of our own beatin' drum

This to all my warriors, who breathe with the heart of a lion
To everybody that lost their mother, their father, rest in peace moms!
My mother's last words, "Never give up"
A true warrior, who raised me in the hood, in a war
Love ya girl, y'kno keep marchin'
Yea yea yea, you never give up
To all my warriors, haha
Braveheart, braveheart, definition of a warrior

Breakthrough - Lyrics - Bigger & Deffer - Ll Cool J

Title: Breakthrough
Album: Bigger & Deffer
Artist: Ll Cool J
Composer(s): James T Smith, Bobby Erving

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

Lyric:
Knuckleheads spreadin' gossip all over town
Every time I drive by you're just standin' around
Hundred-bottles in your pocket, forty-dog in your hand
Don't you know you're just a worker and your boss is my man?
L.L. this, L.L. that, soon as I walk in the place
I wanna take my gun and shoot you in your muthafuckin' face
You're playin' me too close with the schemin' and games
I guess the beef and the bullshit is the price of fame

Movies, records, goin' on tour
Twenty-thousand people hip-hoppin' on the floor
Whole parties body-rockin', and everything's chill
Get back to New York, and the suckers act ill
See, I fought with the devil, made a promise to God
I have experience in goin' all the way to the top
It's harder harder than hard all the suckers are barred
You used to try to talk down now your ego is scarred

See the problem is you want what another man has
His car, his wife, or his razzamatazz
But that's weak, you gotta do work on your own
'Cuz when you're rich you got friends but when you're poor you're alone
So get your own on your own, it'll strengthen your soul
Stop livin' off your parents like you're three years old
Instead of walkin' like you're limp and talkin' yang about me
Why don't you take your monkey-ass and get a college degree?

Or write a rhyme and ride a bike and try to live carefree
Hope my message reaches you before you're seventy-three
A old man, when people ask you what you did with your life
You'll say "I hated L.L. and I carried a big knife"
Every day is a chase, every day is a race
And every day you're being overpowered by my bass
Too much juice to be a deuce, I had to be a ace
It's like the fire's in my eyes and the gun's in my face

I'm stompin' stupid knuckleheads until they bleed
I'm the leader of the show, so it's up to me to lead
I'ma lead you away from drugs and petty crime
Lead you away from wack beats and rhyme
Lead you to that ticket line
So you can come in my show and watch the stars shine
Get busy, not dizzy, wanna teach the young
The last man who didn't listen ended up gettin' hung

Not that I killed him, it's just he didn't wanna trust
The words of a master that's why you must
Take heed to the speech, it's gonna reach your ear
Don't try to say you can't hear 'cause the words are clear
Throwin' flurries, punks scurry and I bury the rest
You better hurry up and rock a rhyme and give it your best
'Cuz tonight's the night we gonna see the big fight
Twelve-gauge on the stage in case it don't go right

E-Love drives a tank, he's strong like a truck
If you're cryin' while you're dyin' we ain't givin' a fuck
L.L. Cool J is on the microphone
Tellin' all you punk ducks "Leave me the hell alone"
'Cuz I'm rated X, born to snap necks
Straight up and down, no special effects
I'm the professor, the teacher, the hip-hop dean
If Russia bombed the U.S., they'd be scared to touch Queens

'Cuz that's where I live, and this is what I give
Turnin' top-notch crews into fugitives
They run, they frightened, they hide from King Titan
Like a sniper when he's shootin' or a viper when he's bitin'
Here I am, tellin' the truth and I'm spreadin' the word to my fellow youth
It goes man-to-man and jam-to-jam
I got hip-hop, rock, and love song fans
All you petty MC's in the state of New York
Gettin' a thousand for a show but you still wanna squawk

Can't get a decent contract, your beats ain't workin'
Dogged-out Pumas plus you're manager's jerkin'
Your mic sounds weak, remember that skeezer
I'm badder than Napoleon, Hitler or Caesar
I'm a hitman, but I'm not for hire, fly girl's desire, the man you admire
Not only on the stage, I rock in the park
And I'm a killer in the daytime, and worse after dark
So don't never ever mess with the king of the sound
L.L. Cool J, the baddest around

Angel - Lyrics - And Then There Was X - Dmx

Title: Angel
Album: And Then There Was X
Artist: Dmx
Composer(s): Earl Simmons, Taiwan Green, Irving Gotti

Lyric:
What good is it for a man to, gain the world
Yet lose his own soul, in the process?
God loves you, yes, He does
Said you're alright with Him, I wonder

I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him

I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him

I'm callin' out to You Lord, because I need Your help
See, once again I'm havin' difficulty savin' myself
Behavin' myself, You told me what to do and I do it
But every and now and then gets a little harder to go through it

Losin' friends, day by day
I'm in so much pain when I'm here, Lord, please, take me away
I put you here to do a job and your work ain't done
To live is to suffer but you're still my son

And there will be a time when you shine as bright as the stars
But there won't be a his or hers, just ours
Then you'll see what I've been tryin' to show you all these years
Do the right thing 'cause after the tears, come the cheers

I will, my Lord, with my heart and my soul
That's gonna be how I roll, from now until I'm old
Lead and I'll follow, You take away the sorrow
I'ma sleep on what You said and holla back tomorrow

I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him

I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him

I want You to know, Lord that for what You've given me I'm thankful
Sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, I'm grateful
You gave us power in our words, so I think before I speak
And that way when I speak, they know I'm here to teach

Can't tell em nothin' wrong, 'cause I love 'em too much
I reach a lot of people and Lord, I'm lovin' the touch
But deep inside, I've got somethin' that's workin' against
Everything I know is right, what I know makes sense

That's when you must fight harder than you've ever fought before
'Cause what you've got goin' on inside you is a war
Between good and evil, be careful of those who wanna be you
They smile but are not really happy when they see you

Be careful of the ones that always wanna get you high
'Cause when the time comes that one'll let you die
Listen to me, I'm here but I can only help you
If you want me to help, what do you want for yourself?

I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him

I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him

My Lord, my savior, don't judge my behavior
But instead, take what's in my heart and put it in my head
See, I guess I really never knew, how proud I made You
My life is Yours, my soul I gave You

I don't know if I'll do good enough
(He's by your side)
And we both know the hood is rough
(Right by your side)

Sometimes I don't know what to do
(X, dry your eyes)
But I know what I gotta do
(It'll be alright)

You keep givin' me the word and I'll put it to song
Talk to me, I'll talk to them and we can't go wrong
This is the start of somethin' strong and this is just the start of it
Praises to You my Lord, for lettin' me be a part of it

I was that kid that, been there, did that
Became ashamed so I hid that but ain't no longer with that
Use me as an example, if I can do it then they can too
With the Lord behind us, there ain't nothin' that we can't do

I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him

I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him

He's by your side, right by your side
X, dry your eyes 'cause it'll be alright
Yeah, He's by your side, right by your side
X, dry your eyes 'cause it's gonna be alright
Yeah, yeah, yes, it is

Teach The Children - Lyrics - Don't Sweat The Technique - Eric B. &Amp; Rakim

Title: Teach The Children
Album: Don't Sweat The Technique
Artist: Eric B. &Amp; Rakim
Composer(s): Eric Barrier, William Griffin

Lyric:
No more time to pass time 'cause these are the last rhymes
'Cause we're living in the last times
They wanna go to war, more wars to come
But most of us fight more wars than one
Discrimination in the racial nation
While they destroy our strong foundation
Nature's balance is way off balance
They tip the scale, now it's no more silence
The hole in the ozone layer is outta control
But they wanna fight for more oil and gold
Unemployment, I got laid off
The streets is the last resorts to get paid off
For more, more mint, no doe for rent
I gotta shed blood to make a red cent
Maybe I should ask the president
Somebody give me the president
But he don't want to hear it, it's out of the question
'Cause in my section it's worse than recession
So I go to a rich neighborhood and play Robin Hood
Take from the bad and give to the good
First I go to Benson Hurst, steal a Benz, snatch a purse
Pick up my friends, that's when it gets worse
'Cause I need government and they need government
Alot of mint spent, now I gotta pay rent
Who makes the most dead presidents in the projects
You're gonna get robbed and wrecked
I parked up the block to plot on a kid that made a knot
Let's get him for all he got
I approached him slow like I was a base head
Put the fo-fifth to his face and said
You see those kids over there wit the hoods
Walk to them real slow and give them the goods
First the gun and the doe and crush the jumbos
One false move and no one knows
'Cause I got a silencer to hush the bust
And I'm in a rush, so hush the fuss
Plus the poison you fed will no longer spread
You good as dead, I'm a fill your head wit lead
That's when I pushed him into his building
To murder him but I remember the children

We gotta teach the children everyday, keep a song
Show them the light, teach them right from wrong
Make some sense so they can carry on
Teach the children
We gotta teach the children so that they can sing along
Understand the words in this song
Can't be done when we're gone, so "

Teach the children ,save the nation
I see the destruction, the situation
They're corrupt, and their time's up soon
But they'll blow it up and prepare life on the moon
Sounds like Total Recall
But who gotta spaceship, you get it, we fall
So hope for the best and expect the worst
The end is near and it's U-N-I verse
The one's that interfere wit nature
Labeled you limited and underrate ya
His plans over rule when he separates ya
Now it's U-N-I verse, the one that hates ya
So we gotta let them know, we're hip to the script
Change the skit, or we're about to flip
'Cause we want access to happiness
Livin' the good life and much success
Equal opportunity
Self awareness and unity
Education, the kids need a sculpture
Teach them the abacus and their culture
And that'll help stop the robbing, raping and killing
Poison neighborhoods are illing
But they import more keys from across seas
A drug disease hits the streets wit ease
So keep on building 'cause we gotta keep building
Till the answers are filled in
And make sure you don't stop till then
And if you do, remember the children

Cannonball - Lyrics - O - Damien Rice

Title: Cannonball
Album: O
Artist: Damien Rice
Composer(s): Damien George Rice

Lyric:
There's still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
It's still a little harder to say what's going on

There's till a little bit of your ghost, your witness
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer each day
That I can?t say what's going on

Stones taught me to fly
Love, it taught me to lie
Life, it taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball

There's still a little bit of your song in my ear
There's still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close that I can't see what's going on

And stones taught me to fly
Love, it taught me to lie
Life, taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon

Stones taught me to fly
Love, it taught me to cry
So come on courage
Teach me to be shy
'Cause it's not hard to fall

And I don't wanna scare her
It's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna lose
It's not hard to grow
When you know that you're just don't know

Hope (Coach Carter Remix) - Lyrics - Twista

Title: Hope (Coach Carter Remix)
Artist: Twista
Composer(s): C Morton, Carl Mitchell, Frederick Taylor

Lyric:
Man, I know we had a lot of tragedies lately
I just wanna say rest in peace to Aaliyah
Rest in peace to Left Eye, rest in peace to Jam Master Jay
And everybody lost in the Twin Towers
And everybody lost period all we got is hope

I wish the way I was living could stop, serving rocks
Knowing the cops is hot when I?m on the block, and I
Wish my brother woulda made bail
So I won?t have to travel 6 hours to see him in jail, and I

Wish that my grandmother wasn?t sick
Or that we would just come up on some stacks and hit a lick, and I
Wish my homies wouldn?t have to suffer
When the streets get the upper hand on us and we lose a brother, and I

Wish I could go deep in the zone
And lift the spirits of the world with the words within this song, and I
Wish I could teach a soul to fly
Take the weight of pain out your hands and help you hold them high, and I

Wish God never gave the men power
To be able to hurt the people inside the Twin Towers, and I
Wish God woulda turned they hearts righteous
When they started to take innocent lives and become snipers, but uh

We will never break, though they devastate
We shall motivate and we gotta pray, all we got is faith
Instead of thinking about who gonna die today
The Lord is gonna help you feel better so you ain?t gotta cry today

Sit at the light so long and then we gotta move
Straight forward 'cause we fight so strong
So when right go wrong, just say a little prayer
Get your money man, life go on, let?s hope

'Cause I?m hopeful, yes, I am, hopeful for today
Take this music and use it, let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful and he?ll make a way
And I know it ain?t easy but that?s okay, let?s be hopeful

I wish that you could show some love
Instead of hatin' so much when you see some other people comin' up
I wish I could teach the world to sing
Write some music and have ?em trippin' off the joy I bring, shiet

I wish that we can hold hands
Listen instead of dissin' lessons from a grown man, and I
Wish the families that lack, but got love, get some stacks
Brand new shack and a ?lac that?s on dubs, and I

Wish we could keep achieving wonders, see the vision
Of the world through the eyes of Stevie Wonder, you feel me?
And I hope all the kids eat
And don?t nobody in my family see six feet, you dig?

I hope them mothers stand strong
You can make it whether you with him or your man's gone, and I
Wish I could give every celly some convissary
And the po po bring the heat on them priest like they did, R. Kelly, and I

Wish that DOC could scream again
And bullets could reverse so Pac and Biggie breath again, shiet
Then one day they could speak again
I wish that we only saw good news every time we look at CNN

I wish that enemies could talk
And that super homie Christopher Reeves could still walk
I wish that we could walk a path, stay doin' the right thing
Hustle hard so the kids maintain up in the game, let?s hope

'Cause I?m hopeful, yes, I am, hopeful for today
Take this music and use it, let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful and he?ll make a way
And I know it ain?t easy but that?s okay, let?s be hopeful

Wish the earth wasn?t so apocalyptic
I try to spread my message to the world the best way I can give it
We can make it, always so optimistic
If you don?t listen, gotta live my life the best way that I can live it

I pray for justice when we go to court
Wish it was all good so the country wouldn?t have to go to war
Why can?t we kick it and just get 'em on
And in the famous words of Mr. King, ?Why can?t we all just get along??

Hope we can find a better way to shop and please, and I
Hope we find a better way to cop a keys, and I
Wish everybody would just stop and freeze
And ask, "Why are we fulfillin' these downfalls and these prophecies?"

You can be wrong if it?s you doubting
With the faith of a mustard seed you can move mountains
And only the Heavenly Father can ease the hurt
Just let it go and keep prayin' on your knees in church and let?s hope

'Cause I?m hopeful, yes, I am, hopeful for today
Take this music and use it, let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful and he?ll make a way
And I know it ain?t easy but that?s okay

'Cause I?m hopeful, yes, I am, hopeful for today
Take this music and use it, let it take you away
And be hopeful, hopeful and he?ll make a way
And I know it ain?t easy but that?s okay
Let?s be hopeful, let?s be hopeful, let?s be hopeful

Teachers - Lyrics - Songs Of Leonard Cohen - Leonard Cohen

Title: Teachers
Album: Songs Of Leonard Cohen
Artist: Leonard Cohen
Composer(s): Cohe

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

Lyric:
I met a woman long ago
Her hair, the black that black can go
Are you a teacher of the heart?
Soft she answered, "No"

I met a girl across the sea
Her hair, the gold that gold can be
Are you a teacher of the heart?
"Yes, but not for thee"

I met a man who lost his mind
In some lost place I had to find
Follow me the wise man said
But he walked behind

I walked into a hospital
Where none was sick and none was well
When at night the nurses left
I could not walk at all

Morning came and then came noon
Dinner time a scalpel blade
Lay beside my silver spoon

Some girls wander by mistake
Into the mess that scalpels make
Are you the teachers of my heart?
"We teach old hearts to break"

One morning, I woke up alone
The hospital and the nurses gone
Have I carved enough my Lord?
"Child, you are a bone"

I ate and ate and ate
No I did not miss a plate, well
How much do these suppers cost?
We'll take it out in hate

I spent my hatred everyplace
On every work on every face
Someone gave me wishes
And I wished for an embrace

Several girls embraced me, then
I was embraced by men
Is my passion perfect?
"No, do it once again"

I was handsome, I was strong
I knew the words of every song
Did my singing please you?
"No, the words you sang were wrong"

Who is it, whom I address
Who takes down what I confess?
Are you the teachers of my heart?
"We teach old hearts to rest"

Oh, teachers, are my lessons done?
I cannot do another one
They laughed and laughed and said, "Well child
Are your lessons done?
Are your lessons done?
Are your lessons done?"

You Make Me Want To Be - Lyrics - Dan Hill

Title: You Make Me Want To Be
Artist: Dan Hill
Composer(s): Dan Hill

Lyric:
You make me want to be a father
Trade my wandering path of freedom
For your soul

Whoa and all I once defied
And locked so deep inside
Is on a roller coaster
Riding out of control

You make me want to be a teacher
Teach that love is all there is
And still there's more

Oh and everywhere I turn
And everything I learn
Shows me there's something new
I've never seen before

Words can only take a thought so far
And I've almost gone as far as I can go
To see each other as we really are
Exploring all around us as we grow
And we grow and we grow

You make me want to be a writer
Write this world a crazy love song
For today

Let me glide upon your smile
It beams for miles and miles
Catch it now before it sails away

Oh and words can only take a thought so far
And I guess I've gone as far as I can go
To see each other as we really are
Exploring all around us as we grow
And we grow and we grow

You make me want to be a father
Trade my wandering path of freedom
For your soul

Oh and all I once defied
And locked so deep inside
Is on a roller coaster riding out of control

A roller coaster riding out of control
A roller coaster riding out of control
A roller coaster riding out of control
A roller coaster riding out of control
A roller coaster riding out of control
